Default Luger bb gun

Gents,

The Sportsmansguide is offering a CO2 powered Luger BB gun at $62.99 for members.

It looks like fun.

i like when kid-guns have the tip of the barrel painted a brite orange. when a kid's pistol is that real-looking you do not want a cop shooting them by mistake.

Mine's here! Need to grab some CO2 to try it out - but I'm flabberghasted at the level of detail put into this gun! Much of it you'd have to squint pretty hard to tell it from the real thing, although some of the micro-details are slightly different on the RH side of the pistol. The biggest difference is the seam running through the grip straps and trigger guard. The toggle looks like its ready to pull back, the takedown lever looks like its ready to be swung open, and the front sight looks like you could tap it out. It has a nice heft, lighter than the real thing as its made of alloy, but very solid and "real" feeling. My wife thought it was the real thing.

Trigger position within the guard is different too, but you don't really notice that at first. It looks like the "Black Widow" grips would interchange with the real thing with a minimum of effort.

I painted in the Gesishert to better match reality, as well as the markings on both the LH side and the toggle area. RH markings don't approximate reality, so were left in the black.

I recommend keeping the box - keep the pistol elsewhere, place all the included literature inside the box, toss in a fresh desiccant packet, and put the whole thing into a ziploc plastic bag. 20-30 years from now, it will increase the value by 50%...

How does the action work? Do you actually lift the toggles to load the pistol? I imagine that at that price the toggle does not actually reciprocate upon firing?

Does one of the grips come off in order to load the CO2?

Can you scan and post the manual?

Manual is available here:

http://www.umarexusa.com/Product-Manuals.html

Toggle doesn't move, although it sure looks like it would. You do remove one of the grips to install the CO2 - both come off in the usual way.

It even looks like the stock lug would work!
