Luger semi-auto BB gun

My P08 should arrive at the Umarex facility tomorrow. I have no idea of a time factor after it arrives. I will keep all up to date as information is known. I do hope that things can be worked out and it can be repaired/replaced. I really like the concept and build quality. Time will tell.

UPDATE

My P08 blowback pistol had broken a part(? defective part) and Umarex USA has NO P08 parts for repair of these pistols....at least at this time. Customer service is going to send me a new P08 pistol.

There was a bit of confusion on Umarex's paperwork. but the nice lady(Mary) just had me email a copy of my sales receipt and that cleared up everything.

Hopefully, I will receive it late next week. At this point, I have to say CS at Umarex is excellent. I hope that I am correct on my assessment.

My new replacement P-08 blowback arrived yesterday. I gave it a go this morning. The difference between my original pistol and this replacement is like night and day!! I ran two(2) CO2 cylinders throught it......This one works 100% with no malfunctions....it was lubricated well at the factory(mine was dry as a bone). the mag fits nicely in the mag well, etc. I am very pleased with this P-08 and Umarex Customer Service.

If you like the P. 08 Umarex CO2 BB pistol. Try the M712 CO2 pistol (broom handle) which is a full- auto/semi -auto blowback pistol with an 18 round magazine. Yes, FULL auto or semiautomatic with the flip of a lever. 177 caliber BBs have a velocity of 360 fps. The P. 08 (non blowback) has a velocity of 410 fps, and the blowback P. 08 has a velocity of 300 fps.

My mind has been wandering over toward this very pistol(M712). Now that I am comfortable with Umarex quality and CS, I am considering their other products. The full auto sounds like a lot of fun!! That could give my packrats a hard time.
