Bulgarian Makarov CO2 .177 BB

I discovered CO2 repeaters a while back, too, and have a few that I am rather surprisingly pleased with. Even the two BB repeaters I've shot impressed me, and I used to write off BB guns due to their smoothbore barrels. Those two are a SwissArms "Blackwater", styled after the Beretta 84, and now sold under the Crosman name, and the Daisy 5501. The latter has the reciprocating slide, and even has a last-shot slide-lock.

I also have a Gamo "Bone Collector" something-or-other, which looks and feels real solid, but I haven't gotten around to shooting it yet.

I don't yet have that Makarov you have there. Since I do have an actual PM (Bulgarian) that I like a lot, maybe that needs to change. ;)
 
I got this Remington 1911RAC for Christmas a couple of years ago. Remarkably very much like the real thing it makes for fun target practice in the basement.

I also have the same BB gun as the OP. I love it, but have issues with 2 things: 1) The CO2 cartridge is good for about 100 shots in this gun. It can't be stored once opened, so you better plan on a shooting session of at least that length. Also, this means that it can't be kept ready for instantaneous varmint control - like rabbits or squirrels in the yard. 2) Filling the magazines with BBs is tedious and time consuming. Maybe I just need smaller fingers for this! ;)

Great quality gun overall though.
