This review is from: Walther P99 Special Operations airsoft gun (Misc.)
I have a JG M16A4 RIS 2011 edition, and this pistol is a good secondary weapon. Don't buy it if you are the kind of person who relies on pistols, because I just bought this so i would not shoot someone with a rifle that's 450 fps upgraded at point blank range. I wish there was no blowback in trade for more fps.
Pros:
Cheap
Reliable
blowback (if you like that)
Cons:
low mag capacity
Low fps
made of Plastic.

I'll admit, my back was turned; but, for the life of me, I couldn't even figure out what was jammed, let alone figure out how to fix it. So, we returned it, exchanging the gun for an identical model.
The second gun 'jammed' while dry firing the weapon to test battery installation (i.e., before we even put a single BB in). I was holding the gun horizontally, having just switched over to full-auto mode. I moved suddenly with the pistol (lifting it up out of reach), and the gun jammed.
I dissected this one, and am pretty sure that what's happening involves a rod/switch mechanism which prevents the weapon from being fully-auto full-time. The interrupter mechanism...Read more
