WE-Tech Gen2 Heavy Weight 1911 MEU Airsoft GBB Pistol (Color: Dark Earth)

106 Customer Reviews

by Kao C. on 06/16/2010
"This package is really awesome for its price. The gun is top notch quality and the mag works great! My 1911 MEU actually came along with the UNMC Eagle Globe and Anchor logo on the grip, both sides.

Pros:
Low priced for high quality
Great recoil
Great accuracy
Looks awesome

Cons:
Chronoed out of the box at 380 fps with propane (maybe just mine)
Mag hold only 15 shots (single stack)
Gas mag hold just enough gas for the 15 shots
The gas filler is too deep and you'll have to get a gas adapter long enough to reach it

All in all, it's a really good gun and you can't go wrong with it for only $105.

"First off, I want to say this about Evike's customer service. Listen carefully..." IT'S A+, TOP NOTCH, AND KICK A$$" That said, I have to thank Lauren (I hope I spelled that correctly, bud) for being attentive from start to finish with my order.. he was/is very professional, and kept me up to date with the order from day 1. BIG THANKS, to Evike and Lauren for making my experience a good one.

on to the review..

This weapon is solid, feels very good in my hands, and is very accurate right out of the box. I love the weight and the look of this piece. No wobble from the mag, no jamming, nothing.. this pistol is excellent in ALMOST every way. The magazine however, leaves a bit to be desired.. I wonder what they (WE-Tech) were thinking when they decided to use a lesser plasitc for the magazine BB-feed... the tension on the spring was a bit "over-powered" as I found out the hard way..the catch slipped and cracked the BB-feed! After reading a bit on this, other customers have found ways around that. I called Evike back with this problem and was sent a new one with no questions asked.

THAT is service! Which is why I'll be making all my purchases with Evike from now on.

Pros:Excellent CQB weapon, excellent performance, great look and feel ! A must have for anyone who loves the 1911 model ! Excellent customer support! This b**ch is SWEET!

Cons: Mags = epic fail. Not Evike's fault!
The gas-well is a bit deep for those players with older cans of green gas.. you'll need an adapter or extension so you can actually gas-up thie mag.. again, not Evike's fault!

"This pistol is really good for the money. WE can be proud for their quality. Pistol is very durable and well built.

- It has a WE logo on a grip - not USMC as shown on picture

"I just got this in the mail/UPS, first impressions and i said "WOW" the gun has a great weight, feels great in my hands and looks fantastic also. I have had no trouble with this gun yet, although the only thing i have to complain about is that it did not come with an orange tip which was odd. I live in a strict neighborhood is all. I also got the 99 cent cow special for the extra mag, i was surprised that they did send me some cheap plastic one. Instead they sent we a full metal mag made by WE. At first i thought someone stole the mag out of the box because as it seemed, the mag was everywhere. The box that the mag came in was on one side of the box while the mag itself was on the other side of the box. That's a packaging issue but still it was a fantastic deal.

All I have to say is, for $100 it's a great deal that you just can't pass up!

"I just got this gun yesterday and so far I am extremely impressed. The look and feel of this gun is amazing and the kick is great. The mag only holds 15 which doesn't last that long. The only other complaint I have is that the hop up is under the slide, so to adjust it you have to take the slide off. The FPS is around 300 which is perfect for me. It's so far great with gas I have been able to get like two mags out without filling it up more than once. I would defiantly recommend this gun.

Pros:
-Good FPS
-Look and Feel is amazing
-Kick is fantastic


Cons
-low mag capacity ( should get an extra mag )
-Hop up is under the slide
Thats all I can think of.

"This gun is a awesome hand gun I have ever personally owned. Great in cold but loose gas fast, perfect in warmer weather but keep it oiled. Great gun, but my mag broke at the black thing that pushes the bb up so be careful don't let it snap all the way form the bottom to the top. Again great gun worth the money, but the orange tip I wish wasn't there. I cant seem to find a inter-changeable barrel for it. If anyone knows please help.


Pros:
Great grip handle
Great look
Heavy
Hard kick
Great sights
Worth the money

Cons:
Orange tip doesn't come off
Safety doesn't always want to stay on safe
not much more bad things about it
by Hunter V. on 03/10/2010
"I love this gun. A realy decent side arm that doesn't cost you $200s. My only con is that the green gas valvue is deeper into the gun than the green gas can has room to fit. Makes green gas leak if you neglect to get the extesion for it. (Which I have)
Blow back is seemless and the bbs will go on for days if you let them. Not that you should be snipping with a pistol.

"This is a very good gbb it is very accurate, has good power, and kicks about as hard as a .22 pistol. not only that WE seemed to pay very good atntio to detail in fact ishowed my friend this and he thought that they sent in a real one.

Pros.
accurate
good power
hard kick (for an airsoft gun)
very realistic
cons.
to realistic (no orange tip it had a peice of orange tape on it)
eats gas

to conclude it appears that the pros out weigh the cons, and if any one knows i would realy like to know how to put a silencer on it or were to get threads for it.

"I have a friend that ordered the SOCOM Gear, and the only difference was that his was tan and had a rail on the frame. I'd get the WE. It's just as good and for only $5 more than the standard pistol with one mag you can get another $25 value mag.

I put a madbull black python 6.03mm tightbore in mine (but going to a DBC 6.01mm), and I'm getting 1" 15 shot groups with .28g's at the police standard 25ft range shooting off hand! That blows my friends WE CQB master away, and he even shimmed his barrel to try to make it not move hoping it would result in better accuracy. I'd say my average velocity is probly ~330fps with propane. I have had absolutely no problems with this gun, and can acutally still get it to fire full 15rd mags at full power for every shot even when it's only 40*F outside. This gun is super smooth operating, and flawlessly functioning. I LOVE 1911's, and this is the best airsoft replica I've came across!

"Nice

Nice

and....Very Nice!

Love it. Everything I'd expect in a high end gas blowback.
by Preston H. on 01/06/2010
"Got it just today, and man, it's awesome! It's kick is crisp and clean, lots of power, and just fits in my hand very comfortably. Can't wait to get it out on the field and see how it performs.

"I have been looking for a quality pistol for a long time and I must say that this is it. There are a few things about this gun I wish were fixed, many of them having to do with the magazine. For anyone looking for a new high quality pistol this is a good choice. Great look, good sights and clean finish, not to mention a good hard kick. Now this isn't the strongest gun, but it is very well rounded. I have put it through tests and it has certainly passed.
Pros:
-nice finish
-good sights
-hard kick
-accurate to about 50 ft max ( for real this is the max effective rang close quarter)
-290-330 fps with .20
-heavy ... well balanced not barrel heavy or magazine heavy
-easy to clean and maintain

Cons:
-the magazine does kinda suck
the plastic slide that pushes the bbs up breaks fast and the black bottom cover kinda gets loose... its doesn't come off but it does get loose
-the exterior of the barrel gets dirty fast
- the black paint gets worn fast, battle scares come fast mostly around the back of the steel handle


overall this is a very good pistol and a very good 1911 colt replica. i recommend it to everyone

"This gun is fantastic. the feel is amazing, the looks, everything about it is great. the only few problems are that the mag well is too deep so you need an extra part for the green gas to be able to reach it. another problem is how the gas barely gets into the mag, one charge will only last about 5 or 6 shots. also, the spring inside the mags is very strong so when you snap it back it can risk the small piece inside of the mag breaking. besides these issues the gun is overall very well put together. the fps is great and it has dead on accuracy.

"got this gun on Friday, and it was highly anticipated, as i took it out of the box, i was immediately please with the looks, and feel. i knew i would be unable to fire its first shots until after i was finished work, many hours later. when i got home, i quickly went to fill the mag, and as soon as i started to fill it with gas, realized that the propane adapter i had was too short :( however this is the only downside i have found, so the next day i went to my local airsoft shop, bought a propane adapter, and was amazed at the power, and accuracy of this pistol, the kick is amazing, as well as the looks and the feel.
