I just recently bought this pistol. The Tuarus Beretta PT99. It is CO2 powered, full metal (apart from the grips), blowback action, extended magazine (approx 38 BB's - 6MM), semi-auto. Cost me £140 and the only minor is the magazine, it is too broad for the BB's and sometimes they double up, possibly causing jams but I haven't come accross a jam yet. If you like shooting at targets or play airsoft, I strongly recommend you buy this pistol before the ban on October 1st 2007. Thank you for watching.
