Umarex DSX-45 .177 Caliber BB Gun Air Pistol

Gets tiring to keep pulling back

Umarex should be ashamed to produce, and distribute, this springer. I've been airgunning for years now. Having CO2, PCP and BreakBarrel rifles and pistols and the DSX45, in my opinion, is junk. Even for the price. Yes it's cheap but, for UMAREX, this is rock bottom. First, it's difficult to cock. Second, sometimes it clocks other times it doesn't. Third, the drop out magazine, like the rest if the gun, is very cheaply made. Drop it, it's going to break. I lubricated everything and still it won't cook properly. Plus, there not supposed to be, but BB's are rattling around inside. I'll have to take it apart to get them out. If you're interested in a spring powered airgun buy the DX17 by UMAREX. It is better built, easier to operate and it will fire pellets or BB's. Comparing the two, the DX17 is inexpensive and, when cocked, fires every time.

Very nice bb gun but I have trouble pulling back to load the gun

Definitely as described in description. Very realistic so wouldn’t allow a young man to use without parental supervision. My nephew loves his, however, he fully understands the rules implemented and how it could be mistaken for a real gun.

It felt good to have something in my hand the size of a Desert Eagle, but it soon because worry to hold it around any angle. The holder at the bottom of the pistol that prevents the slider from shooting off KEPT COMING OFF. If you were to hold it at any angle besides 0, the parts would come off and the top of the pistol with shoot off with the next shot. I'm still giving it 3 because it was a good felt product; I just hold they fix that mechanism issue.

Every since I got old I have rediscovered my childhood .An old springer was my first bb gun, a gift I cherished until lost in time. My grandson asked for a bb gun so my searsh began. I bought the DSX-45 spring powered pistol hoping for the best, and I got it!. I can't keep my hands off this very nice replica of a 1911 45acp. I read and followed the included manuals instrutions for loading and firing the pistol, I must warn you, this a mans gun, no child could easily cock the slide back fully. This is not a target gun, a plinker through and through, and a good one.

This little spring operated bb pistol is fantastic. It works every time although cocking is a bit tough. It packs a punch and I believe it would be capable of dispatching a small rodent.

Bought this for our son for Christmas. He shot it a couple times quickly but it was winter and we live in Michigan so he's just now getting it out. Went to shoot and the whole thing blew apart, of course losing pieces in the process. Its a huge gun that's all plastic and hard to rack as well. Now we have to replace it. Do not recommend!
