"I've had this gun for a couple months and I completely love it. It shoots like a savage and kicks amazingly. I get as much range out of it as my M4, which has an M120, and I run .28g Bioshot in each. The only problem I've had with it, is that a bump on the hammer will sometimes catch on the slide when it is returning. I first recock it to uncatch it, but if that doesn't work I grab my rubber knife and pull the hammer down with that. Other than that, this 1911 is awesome. I give it 5 stars even with the catch problem.

"This gun is GREAT. Bought mine awhile ago and it still works as good as the day I got it. My main gun broke before I got this. I have been using this sidearm as my main so I could still play and I got in the top three kills every single game. I have since bought a new main but plan to use this pistol a ton. I LOVE THIS, if you are border line on whether to buy this please do. Because trust me you wont regret it.

"this gun is my favorite pistol i have ever i love the fps and blow back on this i recommend getting the additional co2 mag for easier fill ups and only 10 dollars the green gas mag runs out fast and it way more expensive and its much biggger than a co2 cartrige

"THIS GUN IS PERFECT...i got this 6 months ago and it still functions like new, i would tend to go with the green gas over the co2 mags because i have had issues with the co2 mags (the mags work beautifully but i think they are to high maintenance). The gun shoots strait as an arrow and has a nice weight to it doesnt feel plastic at all because the plastic grip is well constructed out of super thick super tough ABS....over all this gun is perfect for anyone and a blast to shoot

"this is perhaps the greatest 1911 pistol out there..i went to the evike store to test some pistols and this one is by far the best...thats why i got it...this gun also looks very very cool in person... it is also very high quality for the price (with the gas mag)...so if you are thinking about this gun then get it...you wont be disapointed

"i have owned this gun for almost 2 years now and i have to say its pretty amazing. its very accurate and the kick from the blowback is pretty strong.
pros: VERY accurate, great kick, very compatible magazines, and built well (it feels like it will last a long time)
cons: Low fps (280-320)
All in all a great sidearm. its only con is pretty much drowned out by its pros.

"This is probably the best GBB I've purchasesd thus far - I have 3 other GBBs and they don't even compare in terms of performance. I've fired both .2s and .25s after alittle hop-up adjustment and both reach at least 100 ft: awesome performance for a pistol. I wasn't able to fire all the rounds but that is probably due to the outside temperature (and also because I was too excited to wait till the gas expanded sufficiently). Although the gun is a HI-CAPA style 1911, with the nice Tanio Koba grip it fits into my Blackhawk knock-off Serpa snugly. I'm already starting to see some wear on the outer barrel but since its chrome-colored its harder to notice. I'm also liking the custom trigger.
I would also like to thank Evike - shipped my gun right before Christmas! Also instead of sending me the C02 mag that I would never use and a less-than-ideal WE mag from the holy-cow deal, they sent me an extra KJW mag!
Pros:
Full Metal
Great Range
Nice, crisp blow-back
Rails
Tanio Koba grip
Fits Blackhawk-style Serpa
Cons:
No trades
Magazine didn't last (variable)
Thanks again Evike - Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

"I usually don't write reviews but I felt it this product is one of the better products sold by Evike. I wrote another review about another product but it seems it didn't go through. However, this is one of the solid pistols so I felt compelled to put my 2 cents in. I purchased the pistol with the silver trigger and outer barrel. It shoots hard and straight out of the box. I've lent it to my friends and they always give it praise. We've done small competitions with it and it matches up to the ones my other friends who mod theirs, costing them over $1,000. This one is just over $100 and it can compete against their $1,000+ guns. This fits the Fobis holsters for the 1911 and High Capa. I've used it with propane, green gas and the CO2 mags. The CO2 mags can handle 2X reload. The only 1 issue I have with this pistol is that the outer barrel loosens over time due to the vibrations caused with firing the pistol. I'd recommend using Loctite Blue 242 (if you need to adjusted the out barrel, it is best to use instead of the red one). Just be careful because the slide is metal and I've scratched it.

very reliable, shoots straight with .20g bb's
i have even run it on .12's and it still shoots man size groups.
kick is real nice, its a fast shooter too.

all in all, a great gun

"ive had this gun for over 2 months and it shoots like a beauty! it shoots at 290-310 fps. which is powerful and average fps. the blowback feature is very realistic and has a very good kick. the internals are metal and it is very nice to have in a blowback pistol. i had a small problem with the pistol when i got it but it wasn't too critical, the co2 mag made it sometimes shoot automatic so i dnt recommend buying the co2 mags and only use the green gas mag which is very easy to use.
pros
full metal
great fps
perfect back up weapon
cons
nothing
MUST BUY THIS GUN!

"Got mine a week ago and it works flawlessly. If you lube the slide rails with silicone spray before you use it the first time you won't have any problems with the slide sticking. Shoots 330 w/green gas and 350 with Co2. I get a mag and a half out of a charge of green gas and 3 full mags out of a Co2 cartridge if I don't rapid fire them. Accuracy is very good, just once in a while I get one that takes off completely away from the rest. This gun saved my butt the first time I played with it. When my ICS M4 went down, a squad of 8 charged the small building that I was in. I hit 4 of them at distances of 50 - 100 feet and forced the other 4 to take cover until help arrived. The only con was actually with the $3 holy cow magazine that I ordered with it. It came in a box marked in bright red letters "LEAKS!" And it did. At least it was an easy fix.

"my friend has this gun and iv'e shot it, taken it apart, and put it back together and i must say that it is nice, but DO NOT go with CO2 because it's very hard on the internals. stick to green gas if you can.

"I have had this gun for a little over a month now. So far I think it is good. After putting about 4000 rounds though it and uesing almost 5 cans of gas on it. heres my pros and cons....
PROS-
Clean look
all metal (heavy)
extremly easy to disassemble and clean
you can get about 1000 rounds out of one standard can (I buy 5 cans at a time from evike)
good distance and power (for a pistol)
fits in my tornado holster perfect
great mag cap (my freinds slightly diffrent 1911 only holds 15 rounds per mag)
no problems with mag realese
blow back never fails and when ur clip is empty it locks back
great price this is the best side arm anyone would need
you can buy an extended mag 52 rounds of awsomeness
CONS-
Orange tip non removable (I never remove during game only for pictures)
slid wiggles and rattles a bit when u shake it ( almost all blow backs under $200 do)
mags r expensive but I make due with 2
I love this gun as a side arm(I would no recomend as a primary) it complements my JG AEG M-4 S System well and when I am forced to use it, it never fails
