A truly awesome pistol. Very realistic, hefty at about 2+ pounds, completely metal except for parts of loading mechanism in the magazines and plastic dark-brown grip. Slide action is very smooth, and a good recoil kick. Color is a dark gray-black.

I purchased a propane adapter and it works wonderfully with propane. BBs are easily loaded through a hole in the front of the magazine: just pull down spring and drop in BBs. Orange tip can be removed by pulling back the slide and then pulling off the tip (Don't bring the gun out of the house without it on!).

Iron-sights are too small to be used unless if you take slow aimed shots (for target practice and not in a skirmish). Fairly accurate at 15 meters, and very powerful, 320+ fps.

Charge a magazine with 5 seconds of gas (I used propane) and you should have enough to shoot through all 15 rounds.

There are 3 safety systems on the gun: Manual safety, dual-pressure trigger, and half-cock. The standard manual safety ("fire selector") can't be switched to safe unless if the firing lever is fully cocked back. Dual-pressure trigger means you can't press the trigger unless you're holding the grip and thus pressing down on a "rear-trigger" which unlocks the safety. Half-cock means you can cock the lever halfway so that the gun doesn't fire when the trigger is pulled.

Also, I found that there is no decocker on the pistol, so you must decock to half-cock by firing while holding onto the lever; otherwise just unload the magazine and fire while fully cocked to bring the lever back to uncocked position.

The pistol is an excellent buy, it's realistic, powerful, cheap in price, and comes with two magazines. I personally love the thinness of the pistol.
