ASG STI Tac Master 1911 Airsoft GBB Pistol

"Most righteous. Is all that needs to be said

"I've had this pistol for a while and it has never let me down. In the middle of winter with a foot of snow and below freezing temperatures, a full charge of propane will easily pump out the whole magazine, which a lot of other pistols have had trouble doing. The range is incredibly good and you can adjust the hop relatively easily. Feels great in your hand, shoots even better.

"Ok so I I bought this gun about 6 months ago. Apun arrival I loved the gun and it shot great. Shoots about 315 FPS with.25s. There is one problem with the gun, well more the mags. They are made to hold 26 rounds and do but are very slim so can not hold as much gas. For the first few weeks the gun will only shoot about 20 rounds of less per gas fill. Later on it will break in so to speak and work with all 26 rounds.

Pros
Extreamlly accurate
Great range
Hard kicking
Great metal
Very durable polymer
Amazing sti trademarks
Great FPS
Cons
The small mag issue
And you haven't bought it yet.

"The very first time I fired this pistol I was amazed. This pistol shoots up to 200 accurate at 150. I learned the hard way that you need to charge the mags for a long time with green gas love it and would by it again.

"I bought this as a base to build my budget speed 1911.
Overall, I was impressed. Not as good as a Tokyo marui, but a solid option, especially at the price point. It is marui compatible and is also able to take other hi capa uppers, if you replace the bbh and outer barrel.
However, the stock slide is extremely heavy and sluggish on green gas, necessitating the use of co2 mags if playing with it stock.
Overall 8/10

"I received this replica for my birthday and used it in a game the next day. Even though I only had 1 magazine it was a welcome addition to my rig. It is a very nice looking 1911, the paint is very thick and will eventually wear down and lose its semi glossy look. I installed a PDI winter piston head in it (took about 10 minutes) and after oiling it up and shooting a few magazines through it the performance has increased significantly. Most of the single stack 1911's that are full metal don't have great gas mileage so if you don't upgrade the piston expect to get about 12 to 16 shots on propane. MAKE SURE YOU FIELD STRIP AND OIL EVERYTHING WITH 100% SILICONE OIL/SPRAY WITH NO ADDITIVES!!!!!!! You can acquire this at your local Remote Control car hobby store, or order it in bulk so you don't run out, you will break this gun if you don't oil it properly.

IMPORTANT: this is advertised as full metal but the lower frame is PLASTIC, though it doesn't feel to cheap.

"Decent pistol, way better options.
Yes the gun works fine but there are so many complications that it isn't worth choosing this over any other GBB available.
The magazine leaked right out of the box, and required lots of different fixes to operate with minimal leaking.
There is minimal after market for this pistol, and you will not be able to find spare parts to fix it.
After a week the pistol fell off a table and the safety fell out, and the slide permanently locked backwards.
Save a little extra and buy a TM, WE, or KWA, this gun is not worth it.

"Very subpar gun, and horrible value for your money when compared to what else is out there in this price range. For starters: it is horrible on gas. The entire time I’ve owned it I haven’t even been able to shoot through one full magazine of bbs without it running out. Additionally, the lower half of the gun is cheap feeling plastic rather than metal like most other 1911s in this price range. There is also no threads inside the barrel like most gbbs and if you’re someone who goes in for realism there is ugly ASG and “6mm bb” markings on the right side (but I’m nitpicking there, common for most ASG guns)

PROS:

•Rubber Grips are nice
•Licensed trades on left side and grips
•Magazine well is cut to allow C02 magazines (however this also renders it unable to fit most aftermarket grips if you are in to that)

CONS:

•HORRIBLE gas efficiency _———————
•Lower frame is cheap plastic
•No threads inside outer barrel end
