I have mentioned above that this gun is not amazingly accurate...but I think it must be a problem with my Walther, as most other reviews highlight accuracy as one of its strongest points.
This gun is a true piece of German engineering - they havn't spared anything off. It is very heavy compared to other air pistols on the market, and is nearly 100% metal. (plastic parts being...slide release, grips, safety catch, sights)
I would certainly recommend this air weapon to any fun-gun shooter ...

Nice gun. Good balance and feel especially with the wood grips. I did not care too much for the 4" version but the 6" remained a good bit more accurate. This guns potential even with the poor factory trigger is tremendous in single action. I recently mounted a Walther "heads-up" scope and base combo and find that at 10M (33.2 ft) this pistol is highly accurate.My best off-hand group was .79" at 10M freehand, slow single action for 8 shots. Not too bad for a factory pistol with little to no ...

This is my first CO2 gun I bought it second hand and it has never let me down, I am not the best shooter in the world but I can always get a very reasonable grouping at 10m. Accessories seem a bit pricey though.
I have given a 10/10 rating as I have never owned a CO2 pistol before and have nothing to compare with but for the price I paid I would imagine it would be hard to beat. Can't seem to find a user manual though, I could do with some tips on maintenance for the gun.
Overall I am more tha ...

This is my first co2 gun so I wasn't sure what to expect. I was torn between this and the Beretta, which in the end I decided was a little heavy.
Accuracy wise, its not too bad on new gas when shot slowly. I found I could get groups of 3cm at 10m with the first 32 rounds. After this the pellets tend to go where they want. If fired fast accuracy would be unacceptably wild after just 8 shots. You can see the pellets flying in every direction.
It is definitely not a target pistol but is great fun ...

This was my second CO2 pistol. It is an impressive piece with the weight and feel of an original loaded Walther p88. I believe this pellet re-make is more popular than the old p88 ever was. It's one of the best CO2 pistols you can buy. It's loud and accurate within 2 inches at 30ft. The clip is a metal revolver type and accepts .177 pellets. The slide springs forward and you seat the pellet clip inside. After pulling the slide closed you have to manually lock it. This aspect is not well d ...

This is my first pistol, I'm very impressed. I went for the Nickel version with black grips. Did find the grips a little fiddly to put back at first, but a little reshaping of the clip and they are now fine. I think it is the best looking co2 pistol available.
Accurate, I have a 7m range and after some practice I can get all 8 shots in 3cm, and thats probably due to my skill that its not better.
Powerful enough for targets, have got a rabbit but took 2 shots and it was quite close range (3m or ...

I paid over the odds in my local gunsmith but online shopping makes this very good value and lots of fun.
Looks very good and very much like a firearm, so don't go waving it around unless you want to arouse unrequired interest from the local constabulary. (My neighbours were a bit concerned when I was setting up the sight in my back yard).
Comes in own carry case, well packed for transport and carrying. Handy space for 2 gas cans, 500 pellets and 2 magazines.

Not exactly for hunting but will finish many things off. 8 shots are handy if its a killer pigeon which we had last week it must of been pumped on steroids or something it just wouldn't drop and was from no more than 5 yards away but normally does the trick) in a snap shot the guns accurate nice and weighty powerful looks real unlike most quick semi automatic 8 shot real plastic clips are a bit awkward but every gun has its fault how ever this can be cured with £15 and buy the real wood si ...

My Favorite pistol I've used about 5 pistols such as the Crosman c40, i can tell when I'm on to a winner. I also own a Webley Raider multishot and a Ratcatcher i also own i less impressive pistol of which the name has slipped my mind i'd recommend this pistol to any one beginner or professional but there are problems with it such as the plastic side plates buy the wooden ones and it'll sort it but I'm a cheap skate haha

I bought this pistol about 2 months ago and it has been the best air pistol i have ever owned. I was very impressed with the quality and weight of this pistol. It feels like the real thing. There is almost no plastic (hand grips are the only plastic on this gun) and the nickel finish is very durable, this gun is pretty accurate and almost never jams (even when firing all 8 shots in a second) the co2 lasts for about 8 clips or so. It has nice detail and just looks... damn cool!!!

I have had my Co2 CP88 (4" barrel, black, plastic grips) for a couple of months now and love it. I have set up a 6-7m range in the garage and am slowly getting better. After nearly 1500 shots, I am slowly starting to get a 1-2" grouping a little above the bull, with one handed shots (if you don't count the shots I know I have pulled). With two hands it gets better and firing off 8 shots in a few seconds double-action I often take out the bull entirely. Not sure why my single handed shots go a li ...

I have had my CP88 (nickel finish) for just over a week now and I really like it. I particularly think the overall look is very sophisticated. Cant wait to migrate to a bigger model. Well done Walther. Michael Napata, Botswana, Africa

I did a lot of research before buying the Walther CP88. I looked at this website and read all the reviews and comments on all the guns I was interested in.
I am glad I did. First impressions last. I will not forget what it felt when I pick up the gun for the first time....heavy and solid. You just know that something is of good quality when you handle it. Some guns are 99% plastic.
I just struggle to close the grips after a CO2 cartridge exchange...maybe it's just me. The gun was a bit on ...

This is the first CO2 pistol I've bought one year ago. I've choosen a Walther CP88 4" barrel nickel-wood version ; a very stylish gun, strong building, heavy weight, very good grip and a good power; for me a little more powerfull than the Beretta 92FS.
After 8000 shots, It's still give me the same pleasure as in the beginning.
