Great Entry Level Spring Pistol, October 10, 2007
This review is from: Airsoft Y&P Spring Pistol SP-124G Heavy Weight NEW` (Sports)
The HFC P99 airsoft pistol is one of the best for the bucks.
It's accurate (out to 20 yds.), packs a nice wallop (the FPS rating seems correct), looks good, feels great in your hand, and is a nice way to practice target or point shooting for pennies on the dollar.
Since I also have 2 older versions of this pistol, as well as a Umarex/Crosman airsoft P99, it made sense to grab another HFC when my first one finally gave up the ghost after a few thousand BBs passed through it.
I recommend using premium 6mm BBs in this pistol, as it will be a lot less likely to jam when cocking. The cheapies hang up in the chamber and will not cycle properly.
The fake supressor is a nice "add-on" and makes this pistol look just like the one used by James Bond in Casino Royale.
As always, practice safety when using this, being sure to wear protective eyewear (because sometimes the BBs DO come back at you as fast as they left the barrel).
AIRSPLAT.COM is the place to get it, as they often have sale pricing for certain items. And their shipping is right on time.
If you're looking to replace one of your low-end spring pistols, or just want to enter the airsoft realm, this is the item to get. You can't beat the price considering the quality of the pistol.
Ask ANY "00" agent.
Shoot Safely,
B.G.

WOW, Powerful James Bond replica, August 26, 2007
This review is from: Airsoft Y&P Spring Pistol SP-124G Heavy Weight NEW` (Sports)
I pulled this gun out of the Case and said WOW. It looks exactly like James Bond's pistol. So I took it outside, and shot off a few rounds. This thing packs a punch, it easily shoots 270+ fps. Its extremely accurate and a great gun overall. My only qualms is that the safetly broke after a week of heavy use (my friends and I were having 3-4 matches a day) and when I tried to remove the silencer after I put it on I accidentally pulled the orange Plug in the front off. Its easy to fix, and after i glued it it looked just like new.

A good bang for the buck, January 13, 2008
This review is from: Airsoft Y&P Spring Pistol SP-124G Heavy Weight NEW` (Sports)
Well i ordered this from airsplat.com and got a few days later and opened the box. I'm a big fan of James Bond and I must say this pistol looked just like the one in Casino Royale. The instructions were easy enough and i had the gun ready in about 1 min. When i fired with .12 g bbs, they went everywhere!!! That sort of made me a little concernicus. but when I fired with .20 g bbs, the gun shaped up its accuracy exponentially. Even so, it was not accurate enough. To get the most out of this gun, i suggest a nice pack of .23g's. It feels good in the hand and the mag release was flawless. The cosmetics of the gun are beyond perfection. It came with a fiber optic sight but i discarded that because the fiber optic part kept popping out of its hold. The silencer is good looking but really just a hollow piece of plastic that decreases accuracy. During one fight, I hit my friend and i could hear him say ow so that convinced me that the fps was 290+. Great for all skill levels and worth the price. I am satisfied with my purchase.
