Description.

If you’re after a piece of airsoft history that doesn’t just sit on a shelf but kicks like a mule, the KWC M712 6mm Full Metal GBB Pistol (CO2 Version) delivers raw, iconic power with every pull of the trigger. Based on the legendary Mauser Schnellfeuer – the full-auto variant of the C96 – this airsoft pistol brings a unique, unmistakable profile to the field, complete with a ferocious blowback system and an unmistakably aggressive aesthetic. Think of it as the airsoft gun equivalent of a Thompson SMG’s moody older brother – angular, loud, and impossible to ignore.

Built like a brick and styled with faithful attention to the original M712, the KWC version features an all-metal frame, slide, and barrel, finished in a beautifully darkened gunmetal tone. Faux wood-texture polymer grip panels maintain the C96's historical look without compromising durability. At 1:1 scale and weighing in at a solid 900g, it feels right in your hand – hefty, balanced, and intimidating. The long barrel and squared receiver lend this airsoft pistol the kind of presence that turns heads at any skirmish or WWII loadout event.

Internally, the KWC M712 isn’t just a showpiece – it’s a powerhouse. Fueled by standard 12g CO2 cartridges housed in the magazine, this GBB pistol throws 0.28g BBs at up to 430 FPS out of the box. That’s serious power for a sidearm and gives it a skirmish role beyond just backup – especially in outdoor engagements. The fixed hop-up provides a decent degree of range and accuracy with heavier BBs, although it's not adjustable, which some may see as a limitation depending on your field style.

Where it gets really spicy is in the fire selector. Yes, the M712 offers both semi-auto and full-auto fire modes, making it effectively a handheld [sub machine gun](https://bbguns4less.co.uk/submachine-guns-rifs/) in pistol form. It's not just a gimmick either – the cyclic rate is brisk, and that metal slide reciprocating in full-auto is a thing of beauty. Just remember: with great firepower comes the need for more mags. The 22-round magazine won’t last long on full-auto, but it’s ruggedly built and performs well under pressure.

In terms of usability, the M712 occupies a strange but thrilling middle ground. It’s technically a sidearm but feels more like a compact primary. The lack of threaded barrel means no suppressors or tracers, but there is a functional sling loop at the base of the grip, allowing old-school carry methods. The rear sight is elevation adjustable, which is rare for pistols and appreciated when zeroing at distance. It’s not the most practical piece for tight CQB scenarios, but it shines in themed loadouts, WWII reenactments, or just when you want to make a statement during walk-ons.

Ultimately, this is a piece for airsofters who value history, style, and the visceral satisfaction of a properly loud, hard-kicking CO2 [GBB pistol](https://bbguns4less.co.uk/gas-blowback-pistols/). It’s not perfect – no hop-up adjustability, limited mag capacity, and no accessory rails – but it knows exactly what it is and doubles down on it. The KWC M712 is a love letter to old-school gun design wrapped in an airsoft body that pulls no punches.
