WE-Tech Xcelerator Series Hi-CAPA Gas Blowback Pistol (Model: Alpha Long Slide / Black / Standard Grip)

"GREAT Hi-Capa, I bought this as an alternative to the more popular 5.1 TM Hicapas that people usually customize. after a few tweaks of the Hopup and a $100 HPA system, It's just as good as an AEG! Never had much problems with leaks, whenever I did have issues, a spray of silicone oil did the trick. Gun came working in great condition right out of the box.
Would recommend to anyone looking for an alternative to TM HiCapas!

"First game straight out the box was like cheat codes haha. Cqb point and it hit. Very solid weight, everyone I’ve had hold it we’re surprised and said it’s close to a real guns weight. Most fun I’ve had with a pistol. Full auto is extremely fun. Mags have great gas consumption. Get around 2~3 clips on one fill per mag depending how you play

"I have used this specific pistol for years and has given me many hrs of play hold up good for price even still to this day

"This is exactly what you should spend on a gas blow back. No more no less. In my opinion it is also the performance that you should expect. I use two of these all the time.

I have yet to have an issue.

"This thing is gorgeous! It has a great weight to it and feels like the real thing. It performs well and the mags work great. I bought 2 extended mags with it and it's a lot of fun on automatic. The slide catch works great and the hopup is easily accessible. Very short trigger pull and it feels great in the hands.

"if you are looking for a nice 100$ pistol buy this one, straight out the box it feels like a sturdy well made gun, this gun also shoots far and can rapid fire easy. highly recommend although the mags are 20$ a piece

"Overall awesome pistol. Here are some more specifics:

Pros:
Doesn't seem to lose more gas the faster you shoot. This can be a common problem with gas pistols.
Grip is great for people with long fingers or larger hands. Very beefy grip.
Comes well lubricated from the factory.
Extremely reliable.
Shoots hard (290 FPS with .3 gram bb).
Great stock hop up (can hop .3's 200ft+ almost dead straight with the hop at full).
Hard kick, especially for a split slide.

Cons:
Slightly difficult to dissemble (hex key required).
Magazines are heavy.
Magazine release button can hit your hand on the other side of the grip if you try to eject it with your hand at the top of the grip.

Overall a great pistol, especially for the price. This is great for a beginner to get into gas-blowback pistols.

"Great awesome gun, it is worth it to get bc of how cheap it was.

"I received the 7" dragon last week. It is a really impressive pistol. It is very accurate (1" group at 10 meters). What I am writing about is that the 30 round magazine started leaking after two loads. I made sure the seals were lubed but it still leaked around the base. I called Evike, explained the problem and they said no problem. Keep the leaking mag and they would send a new one which I just received, tested, and it is just fine. Thank you Evike, you guys are exceptional.

"Excellent gun. Sounds really cool and performs well. Get some extra 51 rd. mags, you will need them.

"What we have is a neat looking gun that has a long barrel with good accuracy and power. It definitely functions well and the sturdy body you want for rigorous play.

Pros:
+ Sturdy
+ Power is manageable
+ Longer barrel seems to do wonders for accuracy
+ Great weight and feel

Cons:
- Breakdown can take a while. 4 different points are secured that need to be removed before you can adjust the hopup.
- The long barrel can be a bit tricky when drawing or holstering

Additional Notes:
= Our team uses a single magazine style and it uses Hi-CAPA mags, so this means that it was pretty easy to coordinate.
= Threaded adapter is a bit of a pain. Nothing major.
= Hopup needs to be adjusted as it is quite a bit off upon purchase.

REVIEW NOTICE: This information is from user experience. Many parts may vary between users.

"I got this gun back in April of 2013 and it still works.

pros: gun is still worth 5 stars even with some problems.
The gun is still very accurate.
It is very upgradeable which u tried but this product is not worth it http://www.evike.com/products/33447/ ( it was just bad, loss of gas and sealing)

Since the gun is so big I ordered a fore grip and 2 hicapa 51 round magazines.

Cons:
The front screws that keep the potato masher like compensator get loose and easily lost, and the bottom screw might, (but electrical tape can fix it if you twist a long strip of it where the sticky side is the rope and wrap around it and then wrap some tape around compensator.)

magazines are still a pain some times but get extra O-rings for the bottom fill valve.



I still HIGHLY recommend buying it, just remember O-rings and buy KJW HICAPA magazines they are better than we.

"this gun is awesome! one of the best pistols I've ever had. get one or two extra mags its very fun to go pistol only!!

pros:
big
loud
accurate
350+ fps


cons:
gas eater
if you drop the mag the gas hinge will come loose and release gas even after you fill it up, if that happens just get a new mag...its not the actual gun.

"Well guys i have had this gun for a few years now I got it for x-mas in 2011 and i have to say that it is my favorite gun i use it as my primary right now. This gun has had everything i could put on it including a grenade launcher, red dot sight, Noveske Airsoft Amplifier flash hider "made the gun much louder like it needed it", lasers, and lights. The only down side for me was when i first got it like most people parts were loose and i had bbs roll out of the barrel. But when you take the time and adjust the hop-up and tighten all the screws it becomes an amazing pistol that if you take care of it, it will take care of you. in about 4 years I have had 2 springs i have replaced and a few mag lips break, and besides that i have had a few screws strip from being used but besides that this gun still shoots 350 fps and i am accurate enough to hit people on the other side of the field. if you want a gun that you can use every time you go to the field or as a massive secondary it is well worth the money and dont forget about the holy cow deal where u get an extra mag cause you will need it.

Pros
Full metal
350+ FPS
meat tenderizer on the front
comfy grip
heavy
accurate to about 75 feet
adjustable rear sight
intimidating look
upgrade parts

CONS:
take down is harder cause u have to remove the compensator before u pull off the slide
really loud "And even louder if you get a Airsoft Amplifier Flash Hider :)"
hop ups a pain to get to
leg holster is hard to get cause of the length and bulk of the pistol
