"I haven't fielded this gbb pistol yet but I can tell you this is an awesome gun for performance and looks
I am safe to say as a gbb pistol tech specializing in 1911 and m92 mods this is a great innovation in the airsoft community.
Pros:
Aluminum lightweight slide (Weaker than stainless steel but makes up for it in 2x less weight)
***Note in airsoft slide metal doesn't really matter unless it was pot metal.. which it is not and aluminum is right on par with stainless
Recoil increase
Golfball serrations
500 rounds through it already and minimal wear
Mine came with an MEU and standard magazine
.45 ACP trademark stamped on barrel
Cons:
Idk if it was just mine or the part that I ordered but I installed a full length guide rod and badbull compensator but the bushing for my guide rod didn't fit which required me to use a metal file against the gun which indicated bad machining on the inside.
Other than that I have not encountered any issues
This advertises a precision inner barrel which I've gotten in all my other we-tech pistols but this has a standard brass barrel
Megaflow internals are also advertised yet when disassembled I found minor differences and under a chrono and mag dumps noticed hardly any difference
***I can't stress enough but I was thoroughly upset that this gun is a 2-PIECE barrel and fell apart in the first day of shooting, but can nevertheless be fixed with super glue etc.
This is a great gun but the price should be back at a $100 due to the performance factor
It's a stock gun basically but worth it to be unique on the field and with friends

"Just received my silver version of the Knighthawk Custom pistol and I must say it actually looks just like the centerfire version of the real thing. It has a great looking chrome/stainless appearnce and is a really slick shooter. I'm glad I made this purchase and it will make a nice addition to my airsoft collection. Thanks, Evike.

"This is a great gun if you are looking for a good quality 1911. It is very heavy and well built. I would recommend not using propane with this gun, however, if you are planning on using propane, use about 4 cans of normal green gas with it before you switch to propane (I didn't and now mine doesn't work anymore). Also, if you use propane, you should know beforehand that the barrel bushing (the little metal ring around the barrel at the front of the gun) will bend, as someone below me already stated (it costs almost $10 to replace). However, if you use green gas, this is a great gun that will last a long time.
Pros:
-Heavy (could be a con)
-(Literally) everything is metal
-Durable
-Awesome trademarks
-Great finish
-Hard kick
-tons of replacement parts
-ITS WE!
Cons:
-Slide rattles, but not very much (doesn't bother me)
-Paint scratches easily
-Stopped working after I used propane with it (not really a con, more of a user error)
-You haven't bought it yet
Apart from stopping working after using propane for almost a year (my fault), this is a great gun that will last a long time. If you are thinking about buying this, don't think any longer and just buy it.

"This is my first gun owned and its perfect i love the weight and the realism this gun has if you want to be unique and have the best airsoft gun in your group you should buy this gun. One thing tht i would have liked this gun to have is the bottom part for a laser but other than tht its great

"okay well all around this gun is bamf but let me get to the pros and cons. However ive chosen to leave "heavy" out of the pros and cons fr this reason, the gun is HEAVY but for a grown person or even a teenager its not a big deal, but if youre buying this for a child, i suggest you look elsewhere.
Pros:
Fulll Metal
Locking Slide
Comfortable Grips
Cons:
NONE :D

"This is a great gun! I got it for xmas and it's amazing. It's nice solid, and good looking. Has a nice kick and a hard punch, good for cqb, and full metal. Only thing is u need to buy an extra mag. Mine only lasts for about 1.5 - 2 mags. This is probaly only my mag because all the others are good. But overall great gun!

"After using this pistol in two long games, I am happy to say that this gun works like a charm. It shoots well and is pretty durable. It has a nice kick, and the hop-up is nearly perfect right out of the box. I personally run it on green gas, and it works great.
Pros:
-Nice Blowback
-Accurate
-Looks good
-Can take some rough handling
-Uses the common 1911 slim magazine (many of my teammates had the same mag type)
-Threaded barrel allows for mock silencers
-Adjustable rear sight
-Golf ball texture allows for good grip on grips and slide
-Has a nice weight
Cons:
-Immediately after shooting you can see wear on the parts you rub on the most (safety, hammer, grip), but very lightly
-One of the safeties (slide lock) is hard to lock in the up position, but is easy to pull down (easy to turn off safety). This may be on only my gun.
Overall I think this is a nice gun. Mine definitely has a few little bugs in it, but everything can be fixed with a little time. As long as you clean it and lube it after receiving this gun, and after every game (less often after break-in), I'm sure this gun will last a long time.

"This gun is excellent! It was my first airsoft gun and gas blowback pistol. This pistol has some kick. It is full metal an has a nice weight. The golf ball grip is very nice and feels good on my hand. The mag is also full metal and holds 15 rounds. Last time i chrono'd it i believe it was at 315 but I'm not sure.
Pros:
Full metal
Uses little green gas
Nice grip, weight, and feeling
Good FPS
Looks boss
Cons:
None
Only thing is don't plan on using propane on this gun. I tried it and the metal grey thing bellow the orange tip got bent from the force I think. But with green gas this gun is unstoppable!

"This gun is amazing! It has a strong kick and a really accurate range. It looks amazing and is really unique, so if you get this, your friends mouths would probably drop. The full metal on this gun does not take away from it's use of green gas, I can get 3.5 mags unloaded before I have to refill the gas. You want to use .20s for this for the best range and accuracy. The texture if the gun is oh so awesome and overall feel of it. This gun is a great starter gun and has one of the best prices ever! This has such a high quality it should be worth more than 120 but thank goodness it is!
