the only electric pistols are all modern, plus there pants on semi auto, they fire too slow, full auto is fine, but you wont use a pistol full auto in ww2, unless its a broomhandle
just get a decent gas pistol , but for what you would pay you could have a propper main weapon , you could buy either a china soft mp40 or thompson, which would be FAR more usable than a pistol

My TM 1911 runs in winter fine on green or propane. 
It's the all-metal ones that suffer most in the cold.
My stock TM 1911A1 (i.e. plastic) was fine on green at -0.5C ambient last winter.
ahh ok, cheers. Its just I was keen on an electric due to the fact winter is approaching and all that jazz. but hey, looks like I'll be getting a gas one most likely. thanks.
First pistol I bought was an electric, and the reason was as you gave. Winter useability. Turns out, that isn't really the case. The batteries in the AEP's get cold, and then fail to function.
I found that out after a daring run from one barrier to another, intent on shooting a mate of mine. Got to the barrier, fired the pistol, and it half turned over in a very sick sounding fashion, shortly followed by a BB to my chest and laughter from my mate. 
Got home, and thought 'I couldn't have charged it properly', so went to fire of the last few shots to run the battery right down, and lo and behold, it fired fine. It had warmed up in the car on the way home you see.
So in short, AEP's do NOT work as well in the cold as many would have you believe. As stated above, just get a plastic slide GBB and you'll be fine. 
What is peoples opinions on there?

They use a D-boys style "shell" but take 6.
A semi viable side arm or just a holster filler?

Resistance is fertile
Probably not great.
150fps is very low.
And it's a springer, so you'll have to cock it before every single shot.

Huh? no he wont, its a revolver, should be double action. 
Depends on the type of revolver.
Gas handguns are invariably cack when it comes to reliability. They're good for props, but not much else. At Milton Hall we tried some snapshot training after a few hours of doing other bits and bobs and EVERY single pistol failed 
You must be buying shit gas guns! All mine work fine.
Failed in what way?
My 1911 was fine all day on the day I mentioned above.
And this thread has reminded me I need to do some maintenance on my GBBs.

Erm; look at the link again....
"£24.99
Spring powered replica of the Model 586, shell loaded so a total of 6 shots available.
Perfect for indoors plinking and for those who like their revolvers but don't really plan to skirmish with them!"
It's deffo' a cheapo springer.

Mixed re actions with My Gas Luger. In Feb at a game got one shot off and that was that 
In the warm at OP Sealion managed to slot a commando running with 2 shots then finished off 2 Paras at 10 yards with the rest of the mag.
Agree they are best for show (But you know you want one) but aim for a main gun first. My lad was medic at OP Sealion and spent the whole 2 days running around with his Colt even changing mags at some points as he shot so many with no problems 
all revolvers are "spingers" even real ones.... lol the spring is behind the trigger to cycle the action ( webley fosbery automatic revolver being the exception)
i would imagine the way its loaded , i.e. the BB goes into a cartridge, and in the cartridge is THE SPRING mentioned. pull the trigger, the cylinder will revolve, the hammer will fall, hitting the cartridge , the SPRING in the cartridge then pushes the BB out. pull the trigger again to repeat.
its a thing with revolvers. its called double action.
Failed in what way?
A lot less gas in each of the mags than there should have been considering none of them had been fired and it wasn't an especially cold day.

I have a springer revolver that has a cylinder/piston in the grip. Cocking the hammer pushes a rod that pulls the piston down against the spring. When the trigger is pulled, the hammer is released, releasing the piston. The air is then pushed up through a tube into the back of the cartridge, which is a tube with a rubber bb holder. BB goes out through barrel.

Well my TM was fine in literally freezing weather (sub 0 C).
