ASG Steyr M9A1 Non-Blowback Pistol (Color: Black)

"When i saw this pistol online i thought my wife would like as a plinker she ordered it but i paid for it
when it arrived i set it up for her the first thing i notice was the abs was well made the gun had a very light but nice feel to it after testing it it out preformed my basic m4 im not joking ! this cheap little gun fires them out fast and furious it does curve off to the side slightly at the end if you can still see the bb
this gun is the little engine that could.

pros
Irish approved ...by me
light
cheap price
great for smaller hands
packs a punch
well made

cons
spare mags are then half the price of the gun when ye include shipping
abs so be nice to it but it is study enough
small mag so will need more mags for field use

"Got this in SWAGG Pack 16; looks really cool and sets itself apart from your common Beretta's and 1911's, the plastic also feels every solid and the metal slide gives it a good heft while remaining lightweight. Since it's a GNBB pistol the trigger is inherently long and heavy being double action only, but it's easy to get used to...but be careful how you handle this thing, I can not make this clear enough, DO NOT USE THIS GUN INDOORS; it shoots well over 450fps, and a little over 500fps for the first magazine per C02 capsule, at anything closer than 30ft this WILL draw blood on bare skin. So save this puppy for outdoor games exclusively, even at that some fields may not allow it.
PROS:
-Unique design (only Steyr pistol on the market as of this date), solid construction, high gas efficiency (about 100ish rounds per C02 capsule), cheap yet durable metal stick mags, built in C02 screw, low profile fiber-optic rear sights (white dot front), dark earth two-tone looks amazing (only available on Evike), amazing gun for the price.
CONS:
-Long and heavy trigger pull, VERY high fps limits it's use, safety in weird position (above the trigger on the right side of the frame), hard to find holsters.
OVERALL: 9/10, if ASG makes a GBB version of this pistol I will be over the moon!

"This was my first airsoft pistol and I can tell you, in all the wars and operations I have been through, this pistol has done it's job beautifully. There isn't much that I can say negative about this gun other than the trigger pull. It is super hard and pulled my shot all over the place. But once you use it for a while it gets better. That's basically it. Good fps, good sights, good externals, and great internals. I recommend this to beginners as well as intermediate airsofters.

"HOLLY HELL!!! This pistol is kick butt! I bought this pistol on sale, just to play around the yard with and now it's my favorite. I have pistols with mags that coast seven times more than this little gem. I'm mad surprised... I'm mad happy! Great pistol. Thanks!

"This is a great gun for the price i haven't had any problems.

"my name is william (reaper) rideout.

i have this in black and it certainly is firing hot out of the box. and they are a great inexpensive pistol. if you dont mind the non blowback function, your laughing..
because it conserves more co2 for the pistol and your firing.
out of the box i'm getting between 440, and 480 Fps.
which is crazy good.
but for indoor is not aloud up here in canada.
indoor up hear is under 370 Fps.
for outdoor you will have an incrediable pistol.
and you can get extra mags for it either through this site or online elsewhere.
i love the pistol and im ordering 2 more but in (dark earth) so i can rock 2 pistols in a game or tournament.

hope it helps you decide..

"I have the black one. This is a great gun; a powerhouse gas miser. I chrono-ed 500+ FPS several times during the first few dozen shots and a respectable 440 FPS through about 80 shots. The gas lasted so long I lost count. My only concern is that .2g BBs were curving all over the place almost right out of the barrel. I'll try heavier weights for better accuracy.

"When I was just getting into Airsoft, I knew I wanted a pistol, and decided to cheap out on it. That being said, THIS PISTOL IS THE BOMB!

This is absolutely a "High Power" pistol. My battle buddy has the same pistol and decided to chrono it before a game day, and the ref said that he couldn't use it because it was shooting around 455fps (which is way over the field limit for AEGs). Due to this, I did not chromo my pistol, knowing that the result would be the same. With that power comes really great range, and somewhat of a kick without there being any sort of blowback. This pistol is super accurate, and really comfortable. It is made out of a plastic body with metal internals, and even without the Co2 tank or mag in, this pistol has a decent amount of weight.

I customized this pistol with a really simple paint job by removing the rear sight part, and a screw located back there, and slipping off the slide (being careful not to lose the spring that is on the inner barrel. I taped the slide around all of the parts I wanted to keep black, and painted the rest of it a metallic/hammered silver. This gives my pistol a unique look that turns heads all over the place.

I would absolutely recommend this to anyone looking for something that will get the job done, cuz remember, we are adults playing army with toy guns. Thats it.

"Very dependable gun in close quarters matches. It doesn't have the accuracy you would hope for from beyond 20 yards simply because the rounds curve up, down, left and right without hop-up control. It's a strong, durable and dependable gun though. Wish the mag held more rounds though. The mag does jam up on occasion though. Holding 16 rounds does not constitute enough room for jamming up your mag.

"Amazing gun for its price. Many of the more expensive guns may be blowback, but they do not match the quality and performance of this gun. I love the iron sights ,yes I know it's a pistol, and it's power is amazing. I shot a plastic .5 thick target and the ammo flew straight through. I love this gun, if you need a reliable strong pistol with realistic weight for a war I highly recomend it.

"It was indeed an epic deal to get this for under $40, and the efficiency is indeed very good, and the accuracy is quite good for something this cheap...
however...
The other reviews were not kidding when they said this trigger is hard to pull. It is almost too heavy of a pull to be useful in combat. It really limits how fast you can fire and puts makes it way harder to not pull side to side.

It's not a bad gun, but you better have fingers of steel and really good aim to use this.

"Very cool looking pistol for the price. I purchased the dark earth color and it is a very nice shade. My only two issues with the gun are that the trigger feels very cheap and is made of cheap plastic, and the pistol shoots a little too hard.

"The Steyr by ASG is a fairly sturdy gun for how much it cost it has some good features such having no blowback which allows for efficient CO2 usage and another good thing to even further approve the efficiency is the fact they chose to put the gas chamber built in to the gun allowing the user not to waste gas when reloading mags which I really like to see in guns. Also it shoots fairly straight though I don't recommend putting anything lower than .2 gram bbs in use for this gun or else it probably won't shoot so straight. The features I don't like though is the plastic feels kind of cheap, and also the trigger pull is very tough and mechanical, and the same goes for the safety this is problem would make most people shoot slower and make your trigger finger tire out more easily but other than that the gun is a great budget friendly gun that seems like it would last a while.

"Cool pistol ,fires way to hot for cqb and has a harder trigger pull than other pistols. Otherwise for 40$ not to bad.
