    I am totally up for a fair few mags - I'm wondering if we could tempt an American member to help and try and reduce the shipping?

    Picked one up a couple of weeks ago.

    More accurate than I expected, and great fun to shoot. Got 72 shots from a bulb:

    While I like the look of the replica and the way it functions I have to wonder what can be done with a steel BB travelling at just 300 fps from a smoothbore barrel??That said if Cybergun were to market an 8" Luger Parabellum replica I would definately buy one!

    What are you intending to do with it dude? If your hunting white Rhino then its not up to the job, if your blatting away at tin cans its perfect.

    The mag extension button makes it easy to eject the mag without changing your grip, something I always find irksome if you can't do it on standard pistols,

    I don't think there is any reason they couldn't make a Luger 4.5mm CO2 with blowback ( or whatever you call the rising/falling toggle action): there is already an airsoft version.

    Personally I would love to have a CO2 4.5mm blowback Mauser C96 (airsoft version already in existence). I have emailed Cybergun and asked them if they have any plans to make one. Probably being wildly optimistic. Anybody else fancy one of these? If you do, email Cybergun too.

    It's a shame the TW 1911 couldn't have been designed with a bit more power. 320fps is a bit soft. 400-450fps - now you're talking! .

    Agreed. It is still great fun, low powered though it is.
