Taurus Millennium PT-111 Spring Powered Airsoft Pistol, Black, 180 FPS

This model serves as a great starting point for airsoft and compared to my other model, the Stinger, it has the pros of having a larger magazine (20 vs 12), alongside a more convenient frame and much more reliable firing mechanism. It's a relatively low power model, especially compared to the stinger but from what i've heard these are some pretty solid beginner guns for the price and they seem quite well. We've been firing both for at least 500+ shots so far, and aside from a few incidents learning the gun it only jammed a few times in the beginning when we'd accidentally pull the lever back twice and we found out it was loading another bb each time. Once we found that out, and just pulled it back a single time we've rarely had a problem. The magazine on this, carries 20 shots, in a little reservoir you have to manually load each BB in one at a time, it's a little finnicky but we've timed ourselves and a reload takes about 40-60 seconds to take out the clip, pull out the bbs, and begin loading them in manually until the clip is full. However while it's slower then the Stinger, it's much more reliable than the Taurus which can be reloaded in seconds but has a tendency to misfire and shoot the bbs everywhere due to it having a highly sensitive 'release'. My younger brother was able to use this fine and snipe a can from our whole backyard. Although compared to the other, it's much more sensitive to the wind and low powered, it's perfect for starting out and is highly reliable and rarely jams which can be a pro or con. For reference, we made a target out of the box this shipped in, point blank this gun will leave a bb deep welt on a can, but not penetrate, and will dent the cardboard box it came in, but not penetrate (about an eighth a inch i'd figure, about the thickness of a quarter), while the stinger pistol we got will rip through cans point blank even with airsoft plastic bbs and leave the same sized welt from 20 feet away. We actually had a problem with the Stinger ripping holes through the cardboard boxes we'd been setting targets across going clean through both ends even when fired 40 feet away from our whole backyard's length.

You truly can't beat this price. Great gun for beginners. I've now purchased 7 of these for an airsoft party and haven't had any problems. One did appear to get jammed after whatever my son did to it (probably overloading the clip), but I simply removed the clip and stuck a wooden BBQ skewer into the front hole (don't know what it's called, I'm totally new to all this). Just poked it around a bit and bb's fell right out through the bottom of the gun. Put the clip back in and all was perfect again. These are lightweight and easy to use. My 7 year old son handles it easily, no kickback or anything to worry about. I'm not sure the aim is spot on, but it's good enough for kids to be happy. It's also not the most powerful, which I kind of like. When shooting soda cans, for example, it just dents them and doesn't actually pierce through the aluminum. Holds 20-21 bb's that you have to individually load. Kind of a pain in the butt, but whatever. I'd absolutely recommend this gun for beginners, kids, or extras to have on hand for a party/battle or whatever. Seriously a great product for a low price!

After only a few hours with this gun I'm already pretty confident in a 4 star rating. Rather than go into exhaustive detail I'll just give some pros and cons: Pros: Cheap Light-weight and small (a last resort type carry that takes up no room or weight) Reliable (-ish, see cons) Seems very kid-friendly as far as airsoft goes. Low FPS, light-weight, simple spring cock (so you have time to intervene before the next shot if needed). Cons: Magazine only holds 20 rounds The hammer can jam, requiring a forceful push with the clip out. But generally happens when it hasn't been pulled quite far enough back. Wait for the audible click (this also breaks in after several firings). 100% plastic. Overall, if you want cheap and light-weight, it's decent. If you want to get kids something they won't kill anything with, this is the one. If you're willing to spend a little more for a side-arm backup, I'd go with the Walther PPQ. On Amazon it runs around $20 and is reliable, accurate, and has a more hefty presence (and ambidextrous clip release for the win!). But I stick this one in my vest just in case I am out of options. Or need to gently deter a possum.

THIS IS REALLY A GREAT GUN! THIS IS REALLY A GREAT GUN! THIS IS REALLY A GREAT GUN! It is Very Very reliable, Shoots far and hard. I know it only say 180 fps, but its probably more. For all of the overpriced and cheap guns on Amazon, this one is THE BEST. If you are looking for a great, reliable secondary, or even primary, this is what you need. The only bad thing is it only comes with about 40 bbs (I know everyone says not to use the bbs that come with the gun) but ive been shooting it all day and there have been no problems... even with reused bbs. It is plastic, and i wouldn't drop it from a 3rd story, but it will definitely endure some serious damage and rough gameplay. I just started out with airsoft, so didn't really know what to expect with these type of guns but I am HIGHLY satisfied. THIS IS REALLY A GREAT GUN! Also, before you think this, I am not the seller or someone benefiting from your purchase of this gun - this is a legit review and You should definitely buy this if you have and extra $10 DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME LOOKING FOR OTHER PISTOLS ON AMAZON. THIS IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST, SO CONSIDER YOURSELF LUCKY FOR FINDING IT!!!!!!!!!! Spring powered and not semi automatic holds about 20-22 bbs Has safety and magazine eject. Comes with about 40-50 green bbs (These are actually decent and have not jammed the gun even after reuse) very compact yet shoots hard and fast Sights are very accurate up to 20-25 feet. After about 40 feet bbs curve, but this gun will launch them 100+ feet if you aim level and 300-400+ if you aim up. very easy to reload quickly. [will shoot through 4 sheets of tin foil, but not 8] IF YOU ARE INVOLVED IN ANY TYPE OF AIRSOFT, YOU MUST GET THIS IF YOU DON'T ALREADY HAVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It’s fine, it basically throws bbs and isn’t able to go through cardboard but that’s expected for $20. It’s extremely light plastic and definitely on the small side.

High quality for crazy cheap price! As accurate as it gets for < $10. Just be SURE to get double polished ammo. Great for quiet self defense practice indoors. Hitting pop cans & metal bottom coffee cans at about 30 feet for entire clips. After 2000 shots still feels as solid as the day I bought it. I think its a slick tool for fast aiming practice that will benefit you when firing real pistols. Definitely the most fun purchase I have made this year at the lowest price. ***update First one broke after about 3800 shots. At first I didnt let the slide snap with each charge. I gently released the slide for each shot. This thing IS plastic after all. So it broke. But release the slide gently and itll last 4k+ shots. I got another one, and its not as accurate as the first. But I can still hit metal bottom coffee cans at 30 feet which is fine for fast aiming practice. Youll want to paint the sights too.

Absolute garbage It broke literally the very first attempt at using it

I purchased this for my son for his birthday, along with a target setup and some airsoft pellets (the "bb's" that this gun uses). He and I are both thrilled! The gun is easy to load, easy to operate, easy to handle. The size is compact enough that a child's hand can hold it comfortably, but not so small that it is not usable by an adult as well. The aim seems good, and we have not had any problems with the gun jamming or malfunctioning in any way. When I looked at the range of prices for airsoft pistols available, I was a little hesitant to buy one of the very cheapest, lest it turn out to be... well, cheap. But thanks to prior reviewers, I gave it a chance. And I wanted to be sure to pass that favor on. Do yourself a favor, and save your money! While I'm sure older and/or frequent/advanced players might want more "features", this is a terrific gun for a younger child or any airsoft novice. Highly recommended.
