"This gun is really good, I got it for my birthday about a month ago and it works really well. There is some slight wobble, but you don't really notice it during a game. The range and fps are pretty good for a pistol and it has a decent weight to it.
Pros:
Good fps and range
Nice kick
Uses 5.1 and 4.3 mags
Mag capacity is about 28
Cons:
Slight wobble
Safety feels slightly loose
I think the slide release is going to wear down
Overall definitely worth $100
Pros:

"I have had this gun for about 3 months now. I will start out with the pros and cons
Pros:
Good construction of the gun itself
Nice and loud when you shoot it
Skeleton trigger which allows for a very high rate of fire
Looks nice
Cons
Orange end of the barrel (this can be removed by using nail polish remover and then scraping off the paint)
The mag is not the best
Like other 1911s the grip is not soft or rubbery and it makes your hands sweat
Overall I will give the gun 5/5 stars. I dropped on my third time playing with it and it was broken. I took apart the entire bottom half of it and I was able to find the proble
and fix it. I would maybe recommend getting the Kwa atp or ptp because those will never break on you and the mags don't ever leak. The mag was the only problem I truly had with the gun. It leaks and the spring is sometimes not strong enough to push up the bbs and so you shoot blanks so if you get this gun be prepared to buy extra mags when your other ones break. I started out with 5 mags and now only 3 work.
I hope that my review will help you decide which gun to get.

"Ok so i have waited a good bit of time to write this review simply because peoples first impressions on a new gun make reviews bias. i have owned this pistol since 2-10-12 and it is now 5-8-12, during this time ive used it in about 30 different battles at my CQB arena. and it is still amaaaaazing.
PROS: great FPS
good hard kick
accurate to about 20 yards
great mag capacity
CONS: We tech mags suck. i ordered 5 and 3 were broken out of the box.
gas hog but hey its airsoft that will happen.
overall 5 stars. this gun is amazing and when im done writing this im off to buy another!

"What a great deal!!
I use this gun at my local Airsoft field which is indoor and this gun is great for any kind of CQB situation. I've had it for about two weeks and heres what I can say.
Pros: Lightweight and realistic feeling,
Great grip, Great FPS for the price, BUY IT!!
I would honestly pay up to 160$ for this gun so getting it for 110$ is a steal.
Cons: Wish I had another.
Beaver tail safety came loose, probably my fault though. No big deal.
WHAT ARE YOU WAITIN FOR ORDER IT NOW!

"Great sidearm for the price! This is very easy to upgrade and repair. I've had it for about a month now, and it still works just like the day I took it out of the box. Plus the magazines work great! (I think a lot of people complain about their magazines because they don't know how to fill/store/maintain them properly. There is absolutely nothing wrong with these mags. Plus the mags have almost 100% parts support, so you don't have to buy a whole new mag if an old one breaks.) This is a total steal for the price!
Pros:
-Very crisp blowback
-Mags are great, plus it's cheap to get extras
-Threaded barrel is very strong, plus it's removable.
-Excellent parts support
-Great range (with an aimed shot, I can hit a man-sized target at 30-40 yards consistently)
-Perfect CQB primary or sidearm
-Durable construction
Cons:
(Please note than none of these are really cons, just finicky things about the gun that don't really affect preformance)
-The front white dot on my sight fell off. It seems to be just a sticker. Nothing a little white paint can't fix.
-Thumb safety is wobbly, and I recommend only using it when it is required.
-Plastic grips feel a little cheap. It's fine for the price you pay though.

"This gun is a beauty. Purchased it because it reminded me of my old Steel Challenge race gun that my father and Johnny Lim (Limcat Custom) built. Though admittedly the weight and balance is not true to the real steel (STI/SV double stack 1911s are very front heavy without a loaded magazine), the feel and appearance of the gun and most notedly the receiver/polymer grip is near spot on. For a GBB, it hits hard, kicks hard and is LOUD. I highly recommend this pistol.

"i just got mine in the mail today and right out of the box the gun feels amazing. Would highly recommend to anyone!

"I just got my gun in the mail today, not disappointed at all, the magazine it came with, and the extended mag work perfect, and i was jumping right into a game pulling it out of the box, thanks Evike everything I've bought from this site hasn't failed me yet, looking forward to more purchases, this gun is a great sidearm, realism and upgrade/interchangable options make this a worthwhile purchase. Hook it up with some of that airsoft cash!!!!!! Airsoft Evike for life!!!!!!!

"Pretty decent gun, dont get me wrong its not the best, but its pretty close. Got it for xmas, got an xtra mag too. the thread adapter is a pain to get off but its possible. im not gonna sugar coat this gun, it does have some problems but not too bad. 1st off the thumb saftey, dosnt do much and its really loose. the duckbill safety is nice, it works but you can still pull the trigger with enough force without pressing it. its also really heavy, could be good or bad depending on who you are. the slide catch is kinda far away if you have small hands. well now onto the good things, 1st off its accurate up to about 100ft which is amazing for a handgun. the kick is hard, like HARD. the magazine holds 28+1 rounds! its also really loud.
im giving this gun a 5 out of 5 even becasue of the fact that the safety, dosnt really do what its there to do, could be a problem for some people. its still a great gun for me and will be for you.

"Received this pistol yesterday and the thing is simply amazing. Realistic weight, feel and charging sound. I have found nothing wrong with it except for the fact that it is a gas hog but thats not a real issue if you are using propane. And the shipping was great too. Ordered on the 20th, received on the 23rd. Definitely will buy from here again. And the quality of the gun is simply amazing. Really easy to disassemble and another amazing feature is the adjustable hop up. It's hard to find a gun with features like this for so cheap. Great buy and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a nice high quality gbb.
