Umarex Blowback DE (CO2 .177)

Had a look, and the mechanism uses the cylinder system so it should be UK legal.

The Umarex media flash thing is a bit naff, but at least there's some pics and the manual for you to grab and have a look at.

Known about these for a few months now, only started seeing them in the UK recently though. Im not convinced the DE is a 1:1 scale replica though, the pictures i've seen of it make it look kind of small. I could be wrong though.

 

They also released a blowback Walther CP99 "compact" basically a compact version of the P99. This only fires steel/lead bb's though, not pellets, from a 19 shot magazine.

Here's a review of the Desert Eagle with pictures (its in german though so you might want to translate it with babelfish)

And also a review of the CP99 compact

I dont think the blowback is anything special though :( the whole slide doesn't blowback like a GBB would. Just need to take a look at the CP99 pictures to see that the slide only moves back about half an inch at most!

 

I'd still like to try them out though, do look okay.
