Umarex H&K USP .177 cal. NBB Co2 pistol





Umarex recently introduced a full blowback action version of the USP, but I still wanted to add the non-blowback version to my collection, mostly because it has the perfect magazine design for use with 7.4 grain "smart shot" copper coated lead BB's, and in some part because Princess Auto had them on sale for $39.99 + shipping for the month leading up to Christmas.

The H&K USP .177 cal BB pistol is a realistic looking & feeling replica air pistol.
It shoots fairly straight for a BB gun, and hits harder than the 400 fps rating.
I chronographed a few shots and three shots ranged from 398 fps to 415 fps.

The inner mechanical operation of the USP seems similar to the IWI Jericho 941/Swiss Arms SA941.
