is it plastic or metal?

The majority of the gun is plastic, but the cocking assembly, the rear sight (and sight knobs), the outer barrel, inner barrel, the front bottom rail, and front sling mount are metal. The magazine is the most durable feeling of the plastics, because I honestly thought bit was metal for a little while. The plastic on the body does feel a bit on the cheap side, but it is pretty durable. But like all plastic bodies, if you care for it, it will be fine.

Mostly plastic, part metal. However, I literally had to pick up the thing and inspect it for the answer -- it doesn't look like cheap plastic, and the base is heavy to keep it steady.

It's probably aluminum but it is definitely not plastic. It is some type of metal for sure.

It does not appear to be plastic to me. It feels like metal. The inside, where the holes for the water to spray from, is most likely plastic. It looks great and works well.

I believe it's plastic with chrome mylar covered over it. Not sure. Pretty sure it's not metal.

It's plastic, but it's very durable. I imagine it's due to the weight, as it's already somewhat heavy.

I believe it is metal, I bought for my son, so I am unable to look at it. I will check with him a reply again.

Plastic. But it wears very well. Our water corrodes metal, so it's been better for us

it is metal....comes with a removable plastic guard that snaps into place. I've had one for years and never used the guard though.

It appears to be plastic....however it feels like it could be metal. Also it is covered with something that feels soft and fuzzy??? Unit is solid and well built.

It is metal but not sure what, probably a heavy aluminum. It works wonderfully, I just bought a second one for my sister.

It is plastic. I wasn't expecting much out of it, but I've been pleasantly surprised.

plastic. I'd say a middle grade plastic...not flimsy, not heavy duty. It works well.

I believe it's plastic, but I wouldn't consider it CHEAP plastic, as the other person answered. It's perfect, really. I love it.

Plastic, but I feel that will last much longer than metal since metal tends to corrode with time.

Metal, very sturdy. Not sure if it is steel or aluminum. No issues with it.
