Replica revolver ASG Smith&Wesson M&P R8 6 mm

Smith&Wesson M&P R8 is a replica ASG revolver in 6 mm BB caliber. The replica faithfully reproduces the Smith&Wesson M&P R8 from the Performance Center series, effectively combining classic lines with modern technology. A distinctive feature of the revolver is its loading system using adapters that resemble real ammunition. It is powered by a 12-gram CO2 cartridge placed in the grip. The presented version comes in black.

Features of the M&P R8 revolver replica:

• Solid construction with a predominance of metal. The grip panels are made of polymer.
• Single and double action trigger mechanism (DA/SA).
• Realistic loading using shell casings inserted into the revolver cylinder.
• Vertically and horizontally adjustable rear sight and a fixed front sight with a white dot.
• The revolver is equipped with ergonomic, finger-grooved grip panels.
• Modern styling that makes the replica stand out among other revolvers.
• Original manufacturer markings on the frame.
• Powered by a 12-gram CO2 cartridge.
• Precisely made barrel with a length of 116 mm.
• Short 22 mm rail for mounting a laser indicator or flashlight.

Sighting devices and mounting rail

The M29 revolver features mechanical sighting devices, including a fully adjustable rear sight and a fixed front sight with a white dot for quick alignment. Additionally, a small 22 mm accessory rail is located at the end of the barrel.

Gas-powered CO2 system

The replica is powered by a 12-gram CO2 cartridge mounted in the grip. Compressed carbon dioxide gives the BBs appropriate velocity. The number of shots largely depends on air temperature, shooting pace, and proper maintenance. It should also be remembered that a pierced CO2 cartridge can remain in the replica for a maximum of 48 hours.

Rotating cylinder loaded with shells

The revolver features a realistic loading mechanism that effectively replicates the system of Smith&Wesson revolvers. The system consists of a rotating cylinder and metal dummy cartridges into which 6 mm polymer BBs are inserted. After placing a single BB into each shell, the prepared cartridges are loaded into the 6-shot cylinder. After firing, the dummy cartridges can be ejected using the extractor, just like in the original firearm. The shells are reusable, but having spare sets is recommended to speed up reloading.

DA/SA trigger mechanism

The model uses a single/double action (DA/SA) trigger mechanism characterized by short trigger travel before the shot and relatively low trigger pull resistance. The advantage of this solution is its simple design and the ability to fire precise shots without the risk of pulling off target. With the hammer down (DA mode), the trigger travel is longer and requires more force, but the shooter does not need to manually cock the hammer each time.

Safety in the replica

During transport or carrying, the trigger mechanism can be locked using an adjustable safety located on the frame.
