EMG SAI BLU Compact w/ EMG Tier One Utility RMR-Cut Slide GBB Airsoft Pistol (Color: Gold / Competition Package)

"Got mine two months ago and i got it at the time as a great alternative to a Glock 19 that I wanted. Turned out that I love this pistol!

I also own the KWA G19 and a Western Arms but they are both having problems. Spare parts are impossible to find for the KWA G19 and Western Arms prokiller. Good thing about a WE-Tech is that you can abuse them and carry to every battle, and they last forever!

Just in case you are wondering, this pistol is made by WE-Tech. Big thanks to Evike.com for having a huge selection of WE parts so our guns last!

Pro:
Co2 and gas magazine
Authentic replica
Comes in a secured box
High quality construction

Con:
The real ISSC M22 need to shoot bigger calibers, but that is irrelevant to Airsoft so 5 out of 5!

"I personally own the real ISSC M22 bought from Turner's outdoor gun store a year ago. Great pistol and this ISSC licensed model is an amazing replica of the real ISSC M22 authentic to the design, construction and in many areas, looks better than the real ISSC M22!!

Pro:
Amazing blowback. Almost identical kick to the .22 ISSC M22.
Takes both green gas and co2 magazine.
easy to clean and maintain
Spare magazines are cheap
Ammos are cheap! yup, even cheaper than .22 which are impossible to find these few days.

Con:
None. As far as Airsoft goes, this pistol is among the best and top notch.

"Hello, right out of the box i knew that this gun was going to be amazing! it has the style of a G18 which is AMAZING, so i went outside and shot it and dang. Was i every satisfied, i could not believe how crisp and smooth the slide was, i have personally owned about 10 CO2 pistols, and out of all of those this has been the absolute BEST. I recommend this pistol TO EVERYONE. It is the most accurate gun on the market for $100.00 I am definitely pleased.

"I love this gun! It is absolutely beautiful! I got the Competition edition gold barrel which came with the Matrix RMR and two spare green gas magazines. Note that these notes are mostly cons. My main notes were the fact that the barrel is a little clanky. When dropping the slide, when the slide is back, and even when the slide is forward you can hear the barrel shaking and shifting which makes a notable metallic sound. The slide is also a teeny bit sticky and can get stuck if you don't rack the slide hard enough. The biggest thing, though, was that the two spare magazines my gun came with were both leaky out of the box. This was slightly frustrating and I'm sending them back but that's alright. One more note, when the gun arrived, the people who were testing my gun before shipping forgot to shut the red dot off before shipping it. When it arrived, the red dot was on and, judging by the fact the battery ran out in less than a day, it had been on for over three days. Finally, the front iron sight screw is jammed and I cannot unscrew it. It's stuck pretty good so I guess I'm stuck with a RMR iron sight, which is fine with me. It's probably just my gun. Overall, I love this gun and it's very ergonomic and fun to play with. Everything runs smoothly, it arrived lubed and ready and nothing looked dry, and it has a nice weight to it!

TLDR: Leaking magazines, clanky barrel, sticky slide, someone left my red dot on, front post sight is stuck and I cannot unscrew

Pros:
- Good weight
- Hard kick
- Ergonomic
- BEAUTIFUL
- Easy to field strip
- Relatively gas efficient
- Sturdy
- Nice unboxing experience
- Smooth and light trigger

Cons:
- Clanky barrel
- Front sight is stuck (can't unscrew)
- Someone who tested left red dot on
- Leaky mags
- Slide can get stuck

Most of these issues were probably just me, so if someone can give me tips on how to get the front sight out please do! And Evike, please help me replace my gas mags with mags that aren't leaky :)

"Haven’t had a chance to test it out yet but wanted to get this big point across because I’ve seen conflicting information:

IT FITS VERY WELL IN A T-REX ARMS RAGNAROK HOLSTER

Literally just tested it.
With that out of the way, my first negative ding is that it does not fit the micro dot evike recommended. Other than that, looks and feels like a glock. Good enough.

"This is an ok gun for its price, but it is a pretty bad beginner weapon. The baseplate and mag-well broke off my gun pretty easy and I found that there was always something wrong with it. It’s not worth it to get a compact gun with unique measurements because it’s hard to find holsters, spare parts, etc. I, personally, have not had a very good experience with this gun, but you might

"Bought this guna few weeks ago, came well lubed and looks even better than the photos. Fells great in the hand and has a somewhat heavyweight but a very well-balanced feel. The only issue I have is that it eats through lube very quickly and WILL NOT fit into a Sai blu holster. I tried and the slide was just too wide for the holster, even after grinding I just ended up ruining my holster. I'd maybe try a glock hoster or something like crye precisions "gun Clip". Besides that it shoots great and is an all round great gun.

"Review for the rose gold barrel:

Overall a decent pistol, but there are a couple of things to note:

1) The rmr cutout has no stabiliser, therefore the rmr will have to be centred properly before tightening down the screws, and so changing the battery will need re zero if your battery is located under the sight.

2) the outer barrel finish scratches off easily and so there will be scuff marks, this isn't a big deal in my opinion but the bigger issue is the clearance between the outer barrel and the slide could be causing some accuracy issues. My shots are too much to the left, this could be from this barrel problem or a hop up problem. Currently purchasing a maple leaf set , so we will see.

3) We/Aw glock magazines actually do work, but the seal isnt optimal, but I was able to clear a magazine fine.

Some nice things:
1) Barrel has a drop cut, so hop up / barrel damage seen in older we glocks should be remedied.
2) Mine included supressor height sights, but no thread adapter. Personally I find this a better trade off

"Just received the WE M22 C02 "Desert" last week and have only put a few Green Gas magazines through it as of today.

This pistol is able to use KJW G23/19 and G17 magazines as well as TM G17 magazines with zero problems. I got about 35 to 40 shots out of the KJW magazines.

It is bit shorter than the G23/19 , however the pistol fits nicely in my G19 holsters.

Trigger is good but a bit heavy. Re-set is short, tactile and audible. Sights are good, but it would have been nice to have the the rear sight notch white outlined and front sight with white applied to the block (where you would normally find a white dot on other pistol sights). It is an easy fix, but would have liked it from WE.

Wonder of wonders, the hop-up was fully functional right out of the box and was able to handle the .23 and .25' BB's just fine. Range was quite good and is right up there with my KJW/Guarder G19's. Might try a Maple Leaf Hop-Up for G19 in it.

Fit and finish is really good and the pistol feels really solid. Hardly a rattle.

The outer barrels inner threads handle the WE suppressor that came with my WE P38S just fine and, as it is more in line with a .22 cal suppressor, it looks super on the M22 . It has no effect on BB accuracy or sound at all.

Looking forward to testing with the WE C02 magazines as well as my KJW G17 C02 magazines. Should be a decent jump in velocity.

My only Con is the the rail system is too short for my M3 and TLR 1 lights. Maybe a Enforce might work.

This is a very good buy and should be considered if you looking for something a bit different. (Not many Tactical Style .22 GBB pistols out there).

The only reason it gets 4 out of 5 is the rail issue,
