"Where to start...

The actual gun's gold is shinier and gold-er than the image show.

Performance wise it is the same as your ordinary WE or HFC M9, which is good, because this M9 has the original Marui design and this makes your life easier with tons of parts available after-market or factory.

Sorry to say, but one of the reason I hated Western Arms and all the Japanese guns guns is because they are fragile and parts are impossible / very expensive to find. They are simply not for USA players because they use a gas not exist in USA.

WE M9 is made to abuse, last and to shoot, you will love it. Spare magazines are easy to find.

"This pistol is awesome...pictures don't describe.

Awesome power and awesome realism.

"This sidearm is great and has not failed me yet! It feels sturdy and has some heft to it since it's full metal. One major problem that I have with it though is that it's a pain to load the mags with BBs. You have to hold the little spring in the mag constantly while loading BBs which can be annoying and painful. Other than that, this sidearm is great if you don't want to spend too much money on one.

"The pistol has a great feel and is fun to shoot. The only problem with it is that it gets cold easily, so it’s pretty much useless outside in the winter.

"Got it on black friday for 3/4 the price. Great gun with realistic action and a nice kick to it. Just clean and oil it after each use and you're golden. Used it for about 4 months until it slid it out of my cheap holster at Ironhorse 2.. also lost one mag prior.. and an extended mag, too.
It will fire all the BBs and still have some gas in the mag. There is a mode between Safe and Fire but it doesn't seem to do anything at all.
My only complaint is that the HOPUP UNIT SUCKS ***. The adjustment screw (which is located at the very core of the barrel assembly) behaves as follows:
- Max. hop: BB will take off to space after trvelling 5ft
- Min. hop: BB will take off to space after travelling 20ft
I shot a teammate in the d1ck at ironhorse and he dropped to his knee so 4/5

"This is an okay pistol for the money. I bought this thing in August 2015, so it's almost a year old, and has been through 2 cqb games, and one outdoor game. I like the recoil, the controls are easy to access for the most part, surprisingly good at conserving gas, unlike what I've experienced with WE's 1911 series. Accuracy is pretty good for a pistol, not perfect, but it's not like not like you're gonna snipe anyone across the field or do 360 no-scopes with your pistol lol. M9 is one of my fav pistol models, both real steel and Airsoft, but the grips however on m9s are kinda wide due to the way they're made, and my hands are on the medium size, so I can't really get a good grip with this thing like I would a 1911 or a glock, or an Hk. That's always been my gripe with this platform. And the safety doesn't double as a decocker switch like the real steel does. KJW and KWA implemented this feature, but sadly, not WE. The metal that was used on this pistol feels kinda cheap, but hey, it's a $100 pistol, and fully upgradeable with Marui parts. My favorite $100 pistol to this day though is the WE G18. I'll never forget that pistol, and I hope it'll come back one day. With that being said, this pistol comes pretty close in terms of gas pistols. Magazines are pretty affordable as well. It makes me sad that I can't afford a stronger air nozzle for Co2 mags! Now, that's not the reason this isn't my favorite pistol. It's very good for the money, but I felt that the G series was the prime for WE pistols. That didn't stop me from trying this thing out though, it's still a great pistol with plenty of upgrades you can do. Take a look at this pistol if you want a propane/green gas blaster!

"Ive had this gun for about a month now, overall it is a pretty great gun. It has a pretty nice kick, nice grip to it also. parts are pretty easy to fin on the internet and they make parts for both the slide and the lower half as well for the mag.

Pros
Good kick/recoil
Nice textured grip
Good FPS
Easy replacement parts

Cons
Paint wears off easily
Mag lip(My fault)- I dropped my mag and its plastic mag lip got bent and only feeds 2-3 shots before getting stuck .

by salvatore s. on 10/09/2012
"I love this gun.. but I think if I had a lil more money I would of got the upgrade version..
this gun Fps was crazy high for a pistol. 350 out of box but the accuracy is way off..

Pros.
great rubber hand grip.
kick back great. (some times)

Cons.
barrel is way to loose.
kick back is so strong that it locks up the safety.

Over all there are some good and bad thing with this gun.. I really should of save a lil more money and got the upgrade version with the silencer.. this gun is 100 save 50 more dollars and you can get the other one.

"If you are looking for a heavy-weight, realistic sidearm then this horse is your best bet. Ive had it for some time now and Love the weight feel and performance so far. There are certain drawbacks to be aware of:

Pro:
Performs well with green gas and propane as well.
Strong blowback
Acceptable accuracy
Complete metal construction
Removable threaded barrel tip for that true M9 profile
Full break down

Cons:
Magazine likes to leak
Blowback action doesnt always lock back when empty
DO NOT DISASSEMBLE. (Part go flying and its tedious to reassemble)
No visible hopup adjustment

Overall its a great gun for a great price! GO AIRSOFT!
