Ekol Firat Magnum 9 mm P.A.K. in Black-Gold – reliable blank firing pistol in classic 92 designThe Ekol Firat Magnum in the noble Black-Gold color variant combines proven 92 ergonomics with robust technology for demanding use as a blank firing, irritant, and signal pistol. The full-size model sits solidly in the hand thanks to balanced weight distribution, offers intuitive operation with double-/single-action trigger, and a fixed sight for quick target acquisition. Designed in caliber 9 mm P.A.K., the Firat Magnum is predestined as a reliable all-rounder for permit-free carrying with a small firearms license as well as for legal signaling purposes – for example at New Year's Eve – in Germany. The gold-colored controls provide visual accents without overshadowing the function. With its robust metal construction, practical controls, and familiar layout, the Firat Magnum meets the requirements of beginners and experienced users who value a full grip and shooting experience as well as confident handling.History / OriginThe brand Ekol stands for functional and durable blank firing weapons in proven platform layouts. The Firat Magnum is ergonomically and formally based on the internationally known 92 series, which is appreciated for its balanced balance and forgiving handling. In Germany, the series has been available for years with PTB approval and has established itself as a reliable full-size model for everyday use within the framework of German weapons law. The Black-Gold variant appeals to users who want a solid mechanism as well as a high-quality appearance. This model fits into the Ekol portfolio between compact derivatives and longer variants and relies on a classic operating concept, zinc die-cast metal construction, and durable surfaces.Technical DataManufacturer: EkolType: Blank firing pistol (gas and signal weapon)Caliber: 9 mm P.A.K. blank cartridgesModel: Firat MagnumColor: Black-GoldMagazine capacity: n. a.Trigger: Double-Action/Single-Action (DA/SA)Safety: Manual safety on the slideSights: Fixed rear sight/front sightMaterial frame: Zinc die-cast (metal)Material slide: Zinc die-cast (metal)Grip panels: PolymerWeight: 880 g (empty weight)Overall length: 198 mmScope of delivery:1x Ekol Firat Magnum 9 mm P.A.K., Black-Gold1x MagazineFeatures & PerformanceThe Ekol Firat Magnum relies on a full-size design with generous grip length for a secure, fatigue-free hold – even with larger hands or longer practice sessions. The grip shape corresponds to the familiar 92 layout, making the weapon intuitive to operate. The trigger works DA/SA: The first shot can be fired optionally in double-action mode, while each subsequent shot after cycling has a shorter, defined single-action travel. This promotes a more precise trigger characteristic during rapid fire and at the same time ensures high safety in handling.The manual safety on the slide is easily reachable, clearly defined, and designed as a deliberate control element. The fixed sights (rear sight/front sight) offer a clear sight picture for short to medium distances typical for signal and firing applications. With an overall length of 198 mm and an empty weight of 880 g, the Firat Magnum is balanced and stable in handling. The metal housing in zinc die-cast construction increases structural stiffness, while polymer grip panels ensure a non-slip hold. The gold-colored accents on controls emphasize the high-quality appearance without creating a reflective surface.The function is based on a reliable, proven blowback principle for blank cartridges. The system is designed for common 9 mm P.A.K. loadings and offers a solid basis for operation with Plat
z-, irritant, and signal cartridges within the legal requirements. The design with an open slide area (typical for the 92) promotes reliable ejection and at the same time facilitates checking the cartridge chamber. The external controls are clearly contoured and easy to reach even with gloves – an advantage for winter New Year's Eve use.

Comparison & Alternatives
Within the Ekol family, the Firat Magnum is positioned as a full-size model. Those who prefer an even longer design with typically higher magazine capacity can consider models from the 92 family with extended length. For users focusing on smaller size and reduced weight, more compact Ekol models like the Special 99 or the P29 are suitable – these are generally lighter and shorter but have a noticeably shorter sight radius. Ergonomically, the Firat Magnum offers the familiar 92 grip angle, making it ideal for users who value steady handling and a full grip feel. Those prioritizing maximum magazine capacity can use compatible magazines from the series (depending on model/series), but should always check fit with the specific variant.

Legal Information (DE)
The purchase of blank-firing, irritant, and signal weapons with PTB approval is permitted in Germany from 18 years of age without a license. Carrying in public is only allowed with a valid small firearms license; on your own enclosed property, the weapon may be carried without a small firearms license as long as it does not disturb the public. For transport: unloaded, not ready to fire, and locked in a container. Firing pyrotechnic cartridges is generally only allowed on 31.12./01.01. or with official permission; local regulations must be observed. The Firat Magnum is PTB-approved in Germany; the specific PTB number depends on the series or batch. Use only approved 9 mm P.A.K. ammunition and always follow the instructions in the manual.

Maintenance & Care
Blank cartridges typically leave heavy combustion residues. Therefore, regularly clean the slide, barrel/barrel replica, bolt area, and magazine. After each use, a basic service is recommended: remove coarse residues, apply a light oil coating on functional sliding surfaces, and dry-clean the inside of the magazine. Use only suitable gun oils and cleaning agents; aggressive substances can damage surfaces. Store the weapon dry, unloaded, and childproof. Regularly check the condition of the bolt spring, firing pin channel, and magazine feed. In case of malfunctions, first check the ammunition, magazine, and level of contamination; persistent issues should be assessed by a qualified professional.
