HK p30 AEP Review

So here i am, reviewing my brothers Umarex HK p30 AEP (airsoft electric pistol)

It takes 4 AAA batteries, so mine runs the equivalent of a 4.8v 900mah battery. It shoots around 180fps(.12s, which i don't recommend you use. go to Wal-Mart and buy some supersonic .2s*) and around 180 to 240 rounds a minute on full-auto. YES. FULL-AUTO. This pistol is both Semi- and Full-Auto. you control this via a switch just in front of your trigger finger (forward for Semi-, back for Full-Auto).

Components:
Body materiel - Plastic
Slide materiel - Plastic
Magazine - plastic, Stick type
Sights - plastic, Fixed
Hop-up - Fixed
Hammer - Plastic, non-functional. (doesn't even lock back.)
Safety - Plastic, secondary trigger
Trigger & Assembly - Plastic

Internals:
Short type motor
Plastic spring guide
Plastic Cylinder
Plastic piston
Metal Gears
Plastic recoil spring guide and...
FULL OF CHEAP GREASE!

Functions:
This gun is an Electric Blow-Back. it utilizes a double third gear to fire the gun, and then push the slide back to reload.

More things:
The slide is one piece plastic, and feels pretty sturdy, and it is also black. it has an orange flash-hider, in accordance with American law, and a clear body, in accordance with Canadian law. The Slide does not lock back, and the only safety feature is that you have to press down a second trigger before it will fire.

and, with the body, the issue i have is that the lower receiver is based of the 9mm Para model
and the upper receiver is based off the .40 S&W model.
Notice how on the 9mm there is no selector switch at the back, and how the .40 has the larger hammer Besides these discrepancies, the Umarex HK p30 is a nice gun for beginners or people who just want to own their friends and their spring pistols in some lame backyard airsoft.

Stock Parts: 3/5
Compatibility: 2/5
Control: 4.5/5
Accuracy: 3.5/5
Weight: 4/5
Overall: 3.5/5
Not the greatest gun, but good for the price.

* By the way, i don't purchase my BB's at Wal-Mart, Although i used to, and i am only recommending them for this gun, or your cheap springers, NOT GOOD QUALITY GUNS.

    would .2's be effective, or would they just drop?

    Saw your review on YouTube. I own the H&K P30S in 9mm. Your review is a bit inaccurate with regards to the hammer and safety; it has nothing to do with the caliber 9mm or .40S&W. The "S" models include an external safety, which is the thumb switch you see on the side near the hammer area. Models with a DA/SA trigger include a spurred hammer, which is the protruding hammer in the second image. Models with a LEM trigger include a bobbed hammer, which does not protrude as much.

    I'm looking for an airsoft replica of my P30 to allow some trigger control practice at home.
