WE-Tech Desert Warrior 1911 Airsoft Gas Blowback Pistol (Color: Tan)

"Solid gun this is the second we gun that I own

"I bought this gun as my first ever real airsoft gun. I love it to say the least. I’d recommend buying more mags specifically the silver 16 round mags simply because they shoot a little harder and last longer too. I’ve used it a ton now with my friends and I quickly earned the name one man army. This gun can shoot super fast if your trigger finger is fast and it’s loud too so it actually makes people get out of the way even if you’re not shooting directly at them. It is very solid however sometimes it’ll refuse to lock back on the last shot so you’ll end up firing a few accidentally without actually firing a bb. The slide lock however has some wear on it from repeated use but that comes with the territory. Just make sure to clean it and use silicone oil regularly on all the moving parts just like any real gun. It still fires great and still scares people even after a lot of hard use. I would definitely recommend this gun to someone starting out.

"This is a nice pistol! Got it for the waffle grip! Always loved the WE series pistols because of the price, and the fact that they are by far the easiest to find magazines, second hand magazines, and parts!

"This was my first airsoft hang gun and let me just say one thing. I love it! I bought it last summer and have only used propane, the only issue is the deap mag fill but it can be taken care of. One thing of notice i have seen recently is it shotting in bursts or just full auto. I have absolutely no issues with that i just wish i knew how to control it. This gun have fantastic weight and feel. I would absolutely recommend this gun for any airsofter.

"Hard kicking gun, kicks like a .32ACP. Has a lot of range if you get the hop up right and the metal isn't as cheap as a cyma or something. It is rather loud so I wouldn't recommend it for backyard play if you live close to neighbors. They'll probably call the cops reporting real gunshots this thing is so loud. Good for field or cqb, too loud for backyard play

"This was a great buy, and it was well worth it!
I purchased this gun around halloween 2013 along with the holy cow deal, and I don't regret it one bit. Here are the pros and the cons:
PROS:
-It's a 1911, 'nuff said
-nice rail
-full metal
-awesome recoil
-barrel is threaded
-pretty hefty for a sidearm (could be a con)
-holy cow deal gets a $3 extra mag
-it has cool MEU style mags with bumper pads on the bottom

CONS:
-weak spring, I recomend buying a stronger one
-mags are unable to fill w/o gas canister extention (not a problem if you use propane)
-this thing shakes drop-leg holsters like nobody's buisness

All in all, it is worth the price

"Great gun! Although it has major issues with adapted propane gas. Just use pre-made green gas and its like a charm.

"this pistol is great if feels amazing almost like the real gun full metal i have not shot it yet mainly because the well to put the gas in is to deep for a standard green gas valve so before you purchase this buy either a propane adaptar of a green gas valve extension to gas up the mag.

"first thing i want to say is Evike is great!
when i first got this gun(2 years ago) i got one of the mags that didn't work well. Evike fixed the problem fast and got me a new mag. when i finally got to shooting this pistol, i noticed that is was very gas eficient.
i was getting about 3-4 mags out of one fill with propane. this is a great gun for cqb or if your using it as a secondary on a field. easy 5 out of 5

"Before I get to my review of the gun, I would like to first comment about Evike's amazing service. I ordered this gun late Monday night, and it was at my door Wednesday at noon. That's with the free shipping!!! I was blown away at how quickly they processed my order. That is by far the best I've seen!

I bought a few items at the same time, including the "Holy Cow" $3 mag for it. That cheap mag was the really awesome chrome one! I was soooo excited to see that! Everything else I ordered with the gun came nicely packed.

The gun itself is in a beautiful box. Comes with two black magazines (plus the "Holy Cow" $3 chrome one, which is nicer), one of the mags that came with it has a rubber plate on the bottom, the other two didn't.

The gun feels amazing in my hands and fired super accurately out of the box. Perfect shot at 40ish feet.

The recoil is crazy aggressive! It's more powerful then my .22LR that I have, and almost as powerful as my 9mm (though it was 90 degrees out).

I only have two complaints about this gun: The safety sucks... My doesn't stay on safe. It might just need to be tightened, but I haven't had the opportunity to try that yet. And my other complaint is that the port to inject the propane in is super deep. My adapter worked fine, but it was close... Some other propane adapters might not work, so be for warned.

All in all, this is a fantastic gun for the price! If you're looking for a sick lookin' side arm that is a classy-classic at the same time, DO NOT look any further! Buy this gun now!

Thank you Evike for an amazing gun! I look forward to my future purchases with you. :D

"I own and shoot real 1911s. This feels just like a 1911 should, albeit a bit on the lighter side. I bought this mainly to practice without having to go to the range.

PROS:
- Controls, size, everything is correct for a 1911 trainer
- Blowback is pretty strong - almost as much kick as a 22
- Takedown (at least the first step or two) are just like the real thing
- No issues with reliability

CONS:
- The sights are silly - the front is a plain black post while the rear has white dots. This kicked it down to 4 stars for me. Hopefully the replacement fiber optic I ordered fits.
- As another reviewer noted, while the specs say "threaded barrel" you have to get the orange tip out to use it. Mine was thoroughly glued in and was difficult to get out

"Pretty fun gas gun! Good kick and good construction.

2 downsides.

1. Gas can run out kinda quickly after about 2 mags

2. While its advertised as having a threaded tip, it comes with the gun separately, meaning you gotta crack off the plastic one.

"Came out the box shooting pretty good. Just needed a slight adjustment to the hop up. Just don't try hitting targets over 30ft away until you make the adjustments. The weight and feel are on the money. The slide has a little wobble but it's nothing to worry about. Packaging could have been better. The box is cardboard and the pistol is in cased in cardboard. No big, it was secure. But the second mag was sat on top of the pistol with no padding between the two.

Pros:
Nice weight and feel
Crisp blowback action
Great price
Comes with two mags

Cons:
Front sight has no markings
Ok packaging

"This gun is a pretty decent handgun. This was my second gbb and when i first got it it shot like a dream. Considering WE is one of the top brands in airsoft today, i wouldnt recommend using this gun in action for more than a year.
PROS-
-Great kick
-Easy to field strip and clean
-Full Metal (The sound of charging the weapon is music to my ears)
-Decent Night sights
-Realistic Feel
-ITS A 1911
CONS-
-Mags have a couple plastic parts tht break
-Gas capacity wears down after a couple months
-With every gas gun, it doesnt perform very well in cold temps
-Internals may screw up depending on amout of use for sometime
But overall, if you're looking for your first gbb, look no further.

"First don't buy this gun off airsoftGI there customer service is HORRIBLE this gun is cheaper but evike has way better tech support and shippings faster when I got my gun it came in two pieces so I had to send it back took another 2 weeks to get it back


Pros
Nice weight
Full metal
2 mags
Gas efficient
Hard kick

Cons
Slide wobbly
Air nozzle sucks

All in all a good starter pistol
