Good Points

Loved the blowback - when it bothered to blow.


Bad Points

Hard to say, since I could rarely get the gun to work at all.


General Comments

Wow! From what I read from other reviews I must have got a real lemon - actually two of them. The problem: I could not get the CO2 to stop leaking from the Walther CP99 Compact gun. Sent the first one back, but the second gun had the same problem. I tried everything I could think of to get the CO2 canister tightened, but no luck. I went through many CO2 canisters and finally gave it up - it was just wasting a lot of CO2 and money and I said the hell with it.
In short - I do not like at all the way the CO2 is loaded into the gun. I would much rather have the familiar (if unattractive) handle under, and visible, turning knob beneath the gun, than have a system that is a bit dicey.
Hey - I may have just been out of luck. Whatever happened to "quality control?"
