I have the CO2 pellet pistols from RWS - Dynamit Nobel. These pistol are constructed of all metal parts, with 8 shot rotary magazines, and feature the double action / single action triggers. They are modeled from the Sig Sauer P-225 and feature the functional decocker. The C225 is based on the Sig Sauer P-225 and it fits well in the holsters made for the P-225, P-220, P-226, and some times the P-229.
Here is one Report on these pistols :
I ordered these pistols from Ken Nolan, Inc., in 1997.
The RWS C225 is the second action pistol Umarex made. It's no longer available.
RWS was made the exclusive distributor, to the extent that their name went on the gun. Unlike Colt and Smith & Wesson, which actually produce the firearms that Umarex copies, RWS doesn't make the 225. I'm sure it must have seemed like a good business decision when the deal was struck; in truth, RWS was searching for its own identity in the airgun world at the same time, and I think this fine little pistol got lost in the shuffle.
