Good Entry level springer

I like this gun overall. I got it a few years ago. Pearks:

1. The pump action gives you a high rate of fire

2. It really packs a punch

3. you get a lot of bang for buck (its cheap)

Down side

1. bad sights get a red dot weaver sight

2. mag design is bad get a few extra if you r a hardcore airsoft player

3. no sling mounts

4. mine is half broken b/c i used it all the time but it lasted a whileMore detail ...

Hunk of Junk

I bought this Smith and Wesson Chief's Special as my first airsoft gun. I was very excited. It worked great...for about three weeks. Even though I took very good care of the gun the cheap spring loader broke. Save yourself some money and buy another brand of airsoft gun. Smith and Wesson stinks.More detail ...

very good

wow.... the shipping for this item was deacent but you pay the price... when i ordered it i got it in 3 day... and thats faster than stuff that i have bought a week before my gun... the mags dont hold that much but they are definately strong... very nice to have in airsoft battles...More detail ...

Powerful FPS Yet Lacks Asthetics

I first came across this sidearm at work; one of the stock workers purchased it and wanted to test the FPS... by shooting himself in the foot. Through the wool socks this S&W gave him a whelp the size of a dime and he kept it for several days showing it off whenever he thought a woman would find it a beauty mark... clearly they did not. After testing it out myself and subsequently being shot myself (he got me from behind) I can personally vouch for the power behind this dandy.



It's 302FPS may not sound like much but between 5-30 feet (typical effective range IMO) you'll know you've been hit and you'll be reminded by that large lump for days. It's controllability is as much as you would expect from an airsoft gun; somewhat easy to control for medium to large sized hands although I heard complaints from younger shooters with smaller hands that it was harder to control. The majority of internal parts are hard metals and not the cheap kind you'd expect from CYMA or other lower-end products. This assures it will last longer than the cheaper competition.



Due to the FPS this S&W has some greater accuracy than your normal inexpensive spring load however the lack of any mounts for a scope means you either have to take it to a machine shop to get one mounted or just take a guess at how to aim. The clear plastic also makes it look ugly when you try to mount any scopes or add-ons to it since they hardly match.



I should note that I do not like air soft guns that are clear plastic. I find those cheap and I feel like a third grader playing with a toy gun when I hold it... more so than usual. It has no asthetic parts such as a supressor (which I find actually stablizes the weapon better) flashlight or scope. These are kinda downsides to us younger audiences that like kewl looking weapons.



I should also stress to parents this weapon SHOULD NOT BE USED BY SMALL CHILDREN or children unfamiliar with firearm safety. While this sidearm will not cause any permanent damage if it can leave two full-grown men groaning in pain for several minutes that have whelps for days imagine what it can do to smaller children. Please parents bear this in mind when purchasing this sidearm or any airsoft weapon.



Overall an 80%. It's not that asthetically pleasing but it will alert your targets when you aim at them.More detail ...

Lasts long not good.

This was my first airsoft gun and i got it with the extra clip and ammo. The clip only holds ten rounds so if frequently using this buy 1 or 2 more. Mine personaly had a hammer flaw and broke about 4 months after i bought it. It still worked but i had to hold the hammer down when cocking it. I bought another Taurus airsoft gun recently that has almost 3 times the fps. I now just put electric tape around the hammer so that I can cock it without holding the hammer down. If you dont want to worry about it breaking by a hammerless airsoft gun.More detail ...
