although nothing is mentioned about hop up it appears to have it...by turning the thumb wheel you can vary the amount of projection

Hmm ~ looks great! The cardboard paper box and the hop up system are bonus to me~

Actually I just watched the YouTube introduction of this one from airgun depot yesterday ~

Nice looking gun. If I didn't already have the Beretta 92A1, I would probably buy one. Looks like the only differences are the color & the treaded muzzle. I think even the mags. are interchangeable.

Would be interesting if someone did a side by side comparison of it with the Beretta 92A1.

Also, here are two reviews that Replica Airguns did on it recently:

Also never seen a hop up on a steel BB gun. Would be interesting to hear how it functions.

My X-FIVE Open printed on the box says it comes with hop-up, but actually not...

It looks very helpful in 6mm plastic BBs, however may not be the same on the much heavier and slippery steel BB.... Really want to see how it works ~

Anyway, I think one more adjustable parts to increase the accuracy of a BB gun is welcome IMO!

I'd like to see adjustable sights available for these guns...like on the X-Five Open. BTW way look down the barrel from the chamber end on the Open...it does have bucking but there is no adjustment provided.
