The Walther PPS is a small frame sidearm with a nice heft to it. It's larger than a PPK/S and feels natural in the hand. The trigger pull is stiff but short with a little creep. I expect this will get better as it wears in. I shoot .16's through it and is pretty accurate for a short BBL pistol. I'm consistantly in the 8-10 ring at 15' with a flyer here and there (15 round groups). 20 grams would probably shoot better.
The slide, slide release, trigger and mag release are metal as are the molded-in sights. The frame and trigger guard are ABS and doesn't feel like that "toy" plastic on some "inexpensive" firearms. The rear sight is fixed and wide and the front sight looks small when pulling down on your target. I've found that if you can see the front sight between the rear notch, you'll kill your "target" in the within the 7 yard intrusion range.
BTW, you can get extra mags by contacting Umarex directly (not a plug). They're around $4 plus S&H...Read more

-Walther trademarks on forward part of slide (both sides) and base plate of magazine.
-Functional firing indicator (when slide is cocked, a red dot appears at back of slide).
-Functional slide lock (slide will automatically lock open when magazine is empty).
-High metal component (slide, trigger, safety, slide lock mechanism, magazine release).
-Compact size.
-22 round magazine.
Cons:
-Limited range and accuracy (.12g BBs for best range [will overhop], .2g for best accuracy).

Great little gun,

Bought this at Christmas so I would have one to shoot with my grand kids. I was really surprised at the quality of the gun because I expected it to be all plastic instead if part metal. It is big for a little kids hand, but perfect size for me. Excellent product considering the low price I paid for it.
