Out of interest, which one is your absolute favourite out of that lot?

If I was choosing a favourite it would certainly be the battlefield finish MP40. I have one of these and love it's basic 1940s looks and fun performance.

Wild Bill,
If I had to pick one, it would have to be the M1A1, its a proper lump, very solid indeed, but the knackered original woodwork makes it special.
Steve.

That AK1 looks the business. Very tempting

Is that a Gamo MP-9 on the right? Are they any good?

Hi Modski66,
Yes, that is a Gamo MP9, I like it a lot, the magazine works well, the only negative for me is the fact that it is almost all plastic, but theres a heavy lump moving about inside that gives a pretty good kick.
Steve.

The Canadian guy who does the Replica Airgun reviews seemed to like it too. I have had a couple of pistols with the double-ended magazines and have never been quite sure about them, I suppose they are easier than the Umarex type where the gun has to be opened up to re-load.
Maybe if I see a bargain used example I will give it a whirl.

Hi,
Yeah, the mag drops out nicely on the MP9, my tip would be to smear a little pellgun oil in and around the moving parts of the mag, mine was very dry out of the box, you can feel the difference, the rotation becomes very smooth.

These all look fantastic. Do they fire automatically like the real thing? Unfortunately not in full auto as considered firearms so illegal in the UK. You can get equivalents in 6mm airsoft format which allow full auto as classified as a RIF (realistic imitation firearm). Some lovely semi auto action though, fire as quick as you can pull the trigger |

What calibre is the Nemesis, and what do you reckon of it? It could be on my list if it's any good, I like the format.
