Legends MP

Amazing quality looks real and is fun to shoot

Bought this along with the M3 grease gun and both did not disappoint. Build Quality is top-notch. Has the looks, feel and weight of the real thing. A BLAST to shoot too. I have NO regrets purchasing both of these. The only thing that I wished Umarex had copied from the real MP40 was the angle of the stock when unfolded.

Excellent quality, mags are kind of a pain to load but well worth it. Pretty accurate as well get about 2.5 mags out of the 2 co2 cylinders

I started off by watching Youtube videos and reading reviews as this is my first large BB gun. I believe there were 4 main things so I'll talk about those. Co2 Consumption; This was a category I was particularly focused on, and after experiencing the gun myself I can say it is above average with Co2 consumption. You'll get around 120 shots per co2 change, the range of how many BB's a co2 cannister should shoot if it is 12g would be 35-100 shots. At 120 shots for 2 co2 cannisters that means per co2 you'll get 60 shots off. This is very good, as my Smith and Wesson BB pistol gets about 35ish shots per co2. I was satisfied. Power; I do not have special equipment to measure the FPS of this, but a Youtuber did. After shooting a full clip full auto he started testing the speed of the bullets on semi-auto. Each round did a respectable 470-490 FPS. And I can concur, the second mag feels and sounds like the first. You'll get some slowdown in power right as the co2 is about to empty, but all the previous shots have good power. Jamming; I cannot and have not seen any issue with this gun jamming. I bought this on January 24th, 2023 and I have never had an issue with the gun jamming. My Smith and Wesson pistol when you pull the slide back and forth a BB will load into the chamber, try to do it again with force and you can jam it. This BB gun does not do that, the BB seems to be shot out directly from the magazine, so if anything the magazine would jam and not the gun. You do need to pull the slide in order for it to shoot, but it does not put a BB directly in the chamber it just prepares it to shoot from the magazine. This is a plus in my opinion, because when my pistol jammed with a BB I had to field strip it and saw it out. Overall feel; This product is spectacular. The magazine size, power, sound and weight to the gun are all amazing. Only 1lb off the real deal, looks realistic and has a built in stock. You cannot go wrong buying this product. I also saw a reviewer saying their product was malfunctioning and they couldn't get into contact with Umarex support. I honestly do not believe that, I had a question and they got back to me within a day. UmarexUSA.com is their official website. Conclusion; Bought this on January 24th, 2023. Has not failed me since, and I still believe almost a year later that I made the correct decision buying this. Edit 12/9/2023; Also to add more details, I bought this product for one real reason, self-defense. I have had strange caricatures walk right into my hallway believing it is an apartment when in-fact it leads to my door upstairs. Even with a do not enter sign this has happened. I can assure you if anyone wants to break in etc. this would certainly make them think twice. The look of it and the power is amazing. This is not a child's toy. Edit 4/22/2024; Product is still working great, I use Crosman Co2 lube, with Crosman copper BB’s, and Crosman Co2 12g canisters. The Hornady black diamond BB’s are the best if you can get those Edit 10/26/2024; Still works great, I’ve put around 10,000 BB’s through it & hundreds of Co2 canisters, no issues thus far. Edit 3/25/2025; Still works great. No jamming or other issues. Works like the day I got it.

This is a really fun toy. It gives you a realistic feel of with it is like to shoot a real full auto submachinegun, with less noise and slightly less recoil. It does make noise as it is cycling that reminds me of shooting a suppressed 9mm using subsonic ammo. Very reminiscent of the suppressed MP5 that I fired in the Army. Not enough noise to bother your neighbors, but enough to tell you that your are shooting. The weight and heft is very realistic. I have always wanted a real MP40, but since I don't have an extra 20K laying around, this is the next best thing. I have just a couple of minor criticisms. First, it eats CO2 cartridges like candy, so much so that I wonder if it as close to as expensive to shoot as a real one. I get 2 magazines before my cartridges are empty. That's averaging one CO2 cartridge per magazine. And you can empty a 50 + magazine in seconds on full auto. Second, the magazine is a little hard to load. You have to pull back the spring, hold it and pour the bb's into a small hole. I tend to spill a lot, and because the tab to pull back the spring is so small, it slips from my thumb a lot before I've finished loading. It's makes you wish for three hands. With more practice, I'm sure I can work out a better system for loading. But overall, I like it. It's fun to blast holes through a target, and imagine what is was like to face one of these back in the day.

After using for a couple months now, I'm just as impressed today as I was when I opened the package. There is a little learning curve with a few things, but nothing bad. One big tip is to tighten the screw down very tight to pierce both co2s (or do the dime trick). Watch as many YouTubes as possible for tricks and tips. All my family and friends love it also. Build quality is very excellent. Made to last a long time. Best bb gun I've ever had.

I love this gun! I enjoy collecting WW2 weapons and items, and obviously finding a real MP-40 is a difficult and expensive prospect. This BB gun is the next best thing. It’s full metal (with imitation Bakelite hand guard). It’s heavy, it’s sturdy, and it feels like you’re holding the real thing. The accuracy of the weapon is remarkable, the only real difference from the original is the the closed bolt with a smaller slide and the safety on the bottom. The magazine is also different, but that is due to the magazine holding the CO2. Otherwise, it is very accurate to the real thing. I’m not sure if the plunger underneath for field stripping is actually functional, it does not appear to be. Still a nice detail to include. The folding stock is also sturdy and I like how easily is clicks into place on both ends. As far as shooting, it’s fun! I’ve only taken it out once, but it’s loud and it’s got kick to it. I can attest to the other reviewers that say the CO2 runs out very quickly. If you’re thinking about using this weapon for anything other than collecting or for some target practice fun, I recommend buying and loading up multiple magazines. My only gripe about the gun is that it cannot dry fire, and that the bolt will stay partially open when charged until the trigger is pulled.
