"Well, I took a really good look at this gun and i noticed the 3.8 stands for the barrel length and that the gun has a good amount of recoil and i was just wondering if this gun lasts a good amount of time if you treat it in good condition? And can this gun use red gas?

"I JUST bought this gun. Took it out for a spin in the backyard, unfortunately I don't have a long enough backyard to do proper accuracy testing, but I don't think it matters at this moment. I may be slightly biased since this is the first gas pistol I purchased, but it's almost full metal design gives it a nice feeling in your hand. Plus it's nice that it has about three different safeties on it. Another reason I love this pistol is the amount of gas it uses (rather, the amount of gas it doesn't use). It will fire anywhere between 40 to 60 rounds on one charge. But if you're going to purchase this pistol, I recommend that you buy the propane adapter and silicon oil with it. It'll save you money down the stretch.

"All I can say is WOW! This gun is totally awesome! When I first took it out of the included gun case, I noticed was how heavy and solid this gun felt. For the $95 I spent on it, this is really great and should be worth much more, about $120 at the most. Everything on it felt high quality and nothing felt cheap. It has a nice hard blowback kick to it and it's pretty loud, at least when using green gas. It is a nice backup pistol in the airsoft field in case your primary weapon runs out of ammo or malfunctions.

"I purchased the WE Hi-Capa 3.8 as a back-up to my Tokyo Marui 5.1 Hi-Capa and this little guy is a monster. Holding the 3.8 in my hand is more of a joy than my 5.1 although heavier the 3.8 is comfortable and has a good kick to it.

There is one thing that I noticed was the description says that the mag holds 28 rounds and in reading the instruction manual recommends 23 rnds only and there is no lanyard connection this is not a complaint just an observation. I rock a King Arms FN P-90 as a primary weapon and the 5.1 and 3.8 as back-ups my 5.1 mags even fits the 3.8 the only thing that I'm kicking myself for was I missed the opportunity of getting an extra mag for shipping costs. Oh well maybe next time.

Evike is the bomb they have everything I want and dream of and they have it in stock great job guys

"This is by far an amazing pistol. It is amazing.

Pros:
No pot metal
Good weight
Nice realistic kick
Aluminum slide
Tons of features
Room to mount a flashlight
Cycles really smoothly
Looks amazing * Even better in person *

Cons:
I ordered an extra WE mag and it came broken (don't trust the WE mags)
Front sight is hard to see (could just be me)
I didn't buy 2

Simply amazing gun 10/10 would buy again, just don't buy the WE mags

"I was up late one night looking at guns, i found this amazing deal and jumped on it. I didnt do any research on the gun until after i paid. Upon doing research i found out that the O-rings lea, the barrel is "wobbly" basically, WE is cheap. But when i got the gun i loved it! Yes the barrel does move but not much and its supposed to! actually it has to! so suck it up and stop being so picky! the gun has a great realistic look and feel to it. the first time i filled my mag with propane the o-ring did almost fall out so you really gotta keep and eye on them. and if you by this get silicone to, its to hard to find silicone at walmart or a hardware store. it has to be pure silicone, and petroleum desolates with destroy your gun. WD-40, yeah, dont use it. ever. Anyways this gun performed great with propane. it shoots hard and fast but its not to accurate, after shooting it for a while you get pretty good but the bullets dont fly straight they have a curve to them. I still have to mess with the hop up though so maybe that can be fixed. The orange tip is metal which is really nice but is hard to get out. Wrap a little rubber around it and use some pliers. this will keep you from damaging the threads. So pros and cons!

Pros
Great price
Realistic look and weight
super fun
durable

cons
hard to get orange tip off
not accurate (doesnt shoot straight)
lack of instructions on common care for your gun. evike should provide a instruction booklet.


Overall the gun is great, i would suggest it for a new player or someone that cant afford a KWA. This is a good deal but a KWA will out perform and out last any WE. So if you have the money go for the KWA but other than that his is a good deal.


THANKS EVIKE!! YOURE THE BEST AIRSOFT PROVIDER IVE EVER WORKED WITH!!!!

"Ok, so far from what I can tell, this is a great gun. I'm not sure if Evike just updated it a little bit or what, but my gun has a logo on the grips, a black trigger, black grip safety, and no rails. I thought Evike might have just sent me a different gun, but it still can rapid fire, so I'm just not quite sure. Now, the gun

PRO'S
High cycle rate
Full metal
Has a nice weight
Made by We Tech
High capacity (about 31 bbs)
Feels very sturdy/solid


CON'S
There is a little bit of wobble if you shake it
I would like to have higher FPS, but that probably won't happen in a pistol

"Recently purchased this pistol and I'm very pleased with it! The rate of fire is fantastic and the lightweight slide allows you to shoot accurately, even while shooting rapidly. Haven't had a chance to chrono or use in the field yet but the blood from my friend's leg says that it shoots hot! Overall, sweet pistol and very reliable service from Evike. Had a similar problem as Myles but after a quick phone call and e-mail, the problem was taken care of. Turns out the custom was updated with a smaller rail but same size slide. Excellent help and thank you Kent. Will be ordering from this site again in the future!

"this gun is amazing! shooting around 325fps and the cycle on this thing is spectacular, i just skirmished with it today and it was awsome. I gave on of mi friends a huse welt in the cheek and another in the arm and the list goes on forever, i love it as a secondary to mi echo1 614. This gun is the frikin god of gbbs in its price range and can compete with WA's. If ur thinking about buying this gun, stop thinking and BUY IT!!!!!
