Hwasan M&P CO2 Non-Blowback Pistol – Full Metal, Black
The Hwasan M&P is a full metal, CO2-powered non-blowback pistol in black, styled on the popular M&P service pistol. It brings the modern look of that design to a simple, efficient gas pistol that is easy to look after and pleasant to shoot.
Because the slide does not move when you fire, a non-blowback pistol puts all of its gas into propelling the BB rather than cycling the action. That makes it economical to run and very consistent from shot to shot, which is exactly what you want for target shooting, plinking in the garden or range practice. The full metal construction gives the M&P a solid, weighty feel that many shooters prefer to a lighter plastic pistol.
Why choose a non-blowback CO2 pistol?
Gas blowback pistols are great fun, but every shot uses gas to throw the slide back, and that costs efficiency. A non-blowback design does away with that, so you generally get more shots from the same amount of gas and a steadier point of aim, because there is no slide movement to disturb your sight picture between shots. It also means fewer moving parts to wear, which keeps maintenance simple.
CO2 is a popular power source for this type of pistol because it is easy to carry and fit, and it tends to cope better than green gas when the weather turns cooler. That makes the M&P a practical choice for shooting outdoors through much of the year.
Build and handling
The metal construction gives the pistol a reassuring heft and a quality feel in the hand. Extra weight also helps to steady your aim, which is useful when you are working on trigger control and grouping. The black finish is smart and practical, and the pistol is a sensible size to hold, aim and store.
Using it for target practice
Non-blowback pistols are ideal for learning the fundamentals: grip, stance, sight alignment and a smooth trigger press. Set up paper targets or a BB trap at a sensible distance, start slowly and focus on consistency before speed. Because each shot behaves the same way, it is easy to see the effect of small changes in your technique.

Compatibility
Use good quality, seamless 6mm airsoft BBs. Magazines and spare parts are generally specific to the make and model, so when buying spares look for parts listed for the Hwasan M&P. If you are unsure which CO2 capsules or magazines to use, contact us before ordering and we will point you in the right direction.
Care and maintenance
Put a drop of silicone oil on the tip of each new CO2 capsule before fitting it; this helps keep the seals supple and reduces the chance of leaks. Do not leave a spent or part-used capsule in the pistol for long periods, and never use lubricants other than silicone oil on seals. Wipe the metal surfaces with a lightly oiled cloth after use to protect the finish, store the pistol somewhere dry, and clean the inner barrel with a cleaning rod and soft patch if accuracy starts to drop.
Who is it for?
The Hwasan M&P suits shooters who want a weighty, economical metal pistol for target practice and plinking, and anyone who values consistency and low running costs over the recoil of a blowback pistol.
Please note: CO2 capsules and BBs are not included. Always wear suitable eye protection when shooting, and make sure anyone nearby does the same.
