Well done sir for a very clear and sensible review of this gun. It makes such a change from many of the gun reviews on KZfaq.

Disclaimer: Read to the end for the real problems. My names Bryan, me and my friend Tyler got these as a gift to ourselves and tried them out. Brand new they were spectacular, I loved how it felt in my hand, Tyler hated it. From our experience the trigger pull was super light, barely had to apply much pressure and it would run. His immediately showed problems with expelling Co2, it was our first gas blowback guns and I loved mine so much I wanted to use it competitively, and I did very very well with it. After a few months, mine degenerated like his did, the trigger would sometimes entirely fail and wouldn't work for minutes, sometimes having to break the gun down and put it back together with seemingly no answer as to why it didn't work. Both of ours started having issues with expelling the Co2 and sometimes it wouldn't expell enough. From my experience, you cannot oil these guns, get them wet, dirty, nothing. If yours starts having problems, I've found that getting them very dry and warm alleviates most of the issues for a short period of time. I do recommend this gun if you like to collect.

Good video. The hop up system description (no.5) in German says: "the hop-up system can be set on the underside of the barrel by using the 6-sided Allen key. Turn the rear screw in the CLOCKWISE direction ("Uhrzeigersinn = clockwise) to increase the hop-up effect" i.e. turning it anti-clockwise will probably decrease the hop-up effect. The wear and tear is doubtlessly linked to the zinc alloy ("Zamak 4") metal used to make most metal airgun replicas: those moving parts should have been made of steel.

when I first got this I was undecided whether to get the bb 177 cal ..4.5mm version or the 6mm airsoft version because I collect both..so I came up with a idea I bought the 6mm airsoft one and ordered a 4.5mm spare magazine and I took the barrels out of old broken gun and made it interchangeable all I do is switch out the barrel by taking off the slide and whallaahh!! baddaping buddah poom! you in your out lol I love modding its my favorite part of this wonderful money eating addiction hobby

I bought one of these for £80 in UK...I weighed it and was slightly lighter than the original so I glued a couple of lead strips in the handle as there is a bit of room in each side...The after market wooden grips you can get for the luger are not a good fit and you need to do some skilled surgery to get them even close to fitting...although the wooden grips for the KWC M1911WW2 replica fit with little work and are a great authentic addition...The leather holsters for the luger and M1911 made in India are exceptional high quality and come with authentic stamps...So I'd recommend the leather holsters for the P08 and the KWC WW2 M1911...but not the wooden luger grips

Thank you. I was wondering how to release the slide!

just subscribed. you know what you present, how it works, how it comes apart, its special features and its inner parts. keep up the great work man :)

I pretty much agree with most of what he says. The one thing I would mention is that you should NOT waste your time and money buying any of the sholder stocks available for the real steel P-08. The ones for the real steel will not fit the clones whether KWC, WE or Umarex. I haven't found after a lot searching any that have been made to directly fit the clones. Not like the wood stocks on the market for the C96/M712 which can be made to fit the clones and work quite well. It can be done for the Luger but requires careful machining to widen the guide slot on the pistol itself. And that my friends was major pain in my... buttock. (I bet you thought I was going to say "my ass". 😇)

Thank you, great review.

i think the wear is just on the finish as its probably quite a cheap finish, the metal is probably fine

Hey! I'm considering buying this replica. Anyone who has owned one for a while. Did it fall apart by itself in the short term, or did it end up being fairly durable in the long term? I don't want to waste my money on a gun if it's gonna dismantle itself after only a few months...

The real version of this pistol would have been called the Black Widow. The German Luger was not made for target shooting but for self defense which is why the sights are so crude.

Maybe you can Zip Tie a lazer to it, or buy a snap on one, I might be buying this as my first Airsoft gun

Hii! Nice video! What is your opinion about that certain pistol? Is it worth to buy for plinking sometimes in the garden? I heard many times that it breaks... Do you recommend it?

Jerry did make some good guns

Hey Steve buddy good work on the videos and updates... I was wondering if you write me back on a question or two... I picked up a P08 maybe a week ago... fired off about 200 rounds so far... question that brass screw that has a little rubber gasket on it that screws into the back of the lock back mechanism... has that unscrewed for you ? So far I tightened it but twice so far... wondering if you had this issue ? Question will we get another update on the over time and what it looks like now ?

my first airgun is gonne be the kwc 1911 A1 :D now i need to get the permet i already have the stuff done for it now it only needs to arive in the mail :/ ( i am from holland btw )

Does the 4.5 mm shoot metal bbs

Just want to let you know some ozler av (think I spelt it right) stole your video

Did you have any problems getting it into the UK , I am looking to get one myself , I have the Umarex legends P08 ,its good but , I want the real Blowback , action , V V

Where can I get a magazine like that?

I have ordered one from Germany in 4.5mm , I will let you know how I get on ,,

does KWC make the umarex blowback Luger p08?

The wear and tear is completely normal - after all, it is made from cheap zinc injection molding and not steel or aluminum. Zinc injection molding is a shit material and it is also so soft that such wear and tear can be seen very quickly. These lead relatively quickly to malfunctions of the gun. Zinc injection molding is just cheap crap and it's a shame that almost all air pistols or BB and also gas pistols are made with this crap. They used to be made of steel in the 1970s and 80s, after that they were just zinc injection molded shit.

Is this not how you field strip the real Luger ? Haha it's awesome if it is! I'm going to look in to it.

Anyone used any Birchwood Casey Super Blue Liquid Gun Bluing on the KWC Luger?

Is there a PELLET-shooting Luger P08 air gun on the market?

Will these kwc co2 mags fit in the we p08 green gas?

How long did it work?

Does it also come with c02 cartridges?

Are the grips removable?

Where do you load the ammo?

mine is 1.6 joule 21 shot??

How did you take off the orange tip?

banger

I bought the Umarex version brand new, seals broke after the first bulb, it started expelling all the co2, or fired 10 bbs then vented all its co2, it released the mag by itself twice sending it smashing into the concrete floor. And then only fired by cocking each shot, then l discovered the barrels loose !! What is it with Umarex and loose barrels 4 out of 5 colt peacemakers l have all had loose barrels Doh

Maybe you can Zip Tie a lazer to it, or buy a snap on one, I might be buying this as my first Airsoft gun
