"got this in the BOA clover edition. Was extremely bummed we got two pistols but I fell in love w this gbb. I have nothing negative to say so this is what I really like about it.

The GRIP feels good in my hands I wanna say I Have medium to small hands and I can maneuver the pistol however i feel. I'm also a lefty so the slide release is easier for me but when i practice with my right hand i can reach the slide release as well. I like the gold barrel and it hasn't rubbed off yet and this is me with blowing like 1000 bbs so far in it. The SAFETY is just like the real 1911's where you need to grip it properly to shoot, meaning its safety is on the back of the grip which means it'll only fire when you grab hold of it.

"Pros- fps,
range
gas efficiency
fire rate
Sight picture is clear
Silver looks amazing (satin/media blasted finish)
Cos-
“Gold” finish comes off after a mag or two
Rear sight does have tiny amount of wobble
Shipping is kinda slow during the COVID-19

Overall this pistol is great but it needs a little bit better quality control
I’ll give it the benefit of the doubt and say this pistol is worth it!!

"I have owned this gun for over 12 months and it still never fails me. I have dropped it, smashed it into walls, had dirt and dust caked on and in it, but after some thorough cleaning, its as good as new. I have never had a single problem with this gun !

I highly recommend this gun if you're looking for something that will last you a very long time, that is robust, and that can effectively reach a short to mid range with amazing accuracy.

"This is an amazing piece of arsenal to add to your treasure chest of tools. This pistol is so nice it will make all your other pistol and your friend's pistols look bad. For reals.

"Ok so first off this is my first Gas Blow Back pistol.

I won this in the Players Choice box of Awesomeness, and I have to say it preforms as well as I could expect. The Gas mags have a good solid feel to them and they hold gas very well usually there's enough left in the mag for 3-4 additional shots.

One caviot, WE Hicapa mags DO fit, but you will need to modify the base plate on the in order for them to slide in enough to fully lock in place.

"This is by far the BEST GBB I have ever owned. Right out of the box, it shoots super accurately, and is extremely gas efficient, I got around 1.8 mags worth of gas for around 8-10 seconds of WE TECH brand green gas. This gun is also extremely good looking, it has all the correct markings and trademarks that a real SAI 2011 has, I think it's worth every single penny! My setup, includes an ACE 1 ARMS RMR sight from JKARMY, and a Olight PL-2 Valkyrie Tac Light, this is one of the only lights I know of that will fit this guns rail, These kinds of Hi-Capas are known to have rails incompatible with most attachments. That's all I have to say, it's a great gun IMO just buy it if you have the money, its perfect, the internals are great, the accuracy and range is great too, it's a beast of a pistol.

"It shoots great and it's gorgeous.

What else do you need?
by Alan P. on 06/01/2017
"Hi,
Before this pistol came along, you have to spend a lot of money to build a SAI pistol replica. Going in, I wasn't expecting a good quality pistol because of its relatively cheap price VS the SAI aftermarket build kits. Boy, I'm so happy to be wrong! First off, this is OEM by AW Customs. The build quality is very good, metal parts, reinforced internals and all. Performance wise, the Hi Capa model of pistols are high performing. This EMG/SAI Hi Capa is no different. Mine shot between 320-340 FPS on .2's. It shot very hard and crisp, should I even dare say Marui-like. Yes! It's that good. I'm also happy to say that it didn't come with any other trades other than the correct, beautifully engraved SAI trades.

In conclusion, if you're a SAI fan like I am, you better jump on this pistol. Sure, it's pricey but you're paying for a beautiful pistol with SAI trades, metal parts, reinforced internals. No need to upgrade anything. Still CHEAP compared to building one from scratch. Great job here EMG! Now, let's build the BLUE GUN.

"I got this gun about a month ago and has worked great.


Pros:

Mag takes green gas and Co2
Very efficient, no problems so far
Full metal
Good FPS
Feels great to play with on the field

Cons:

None, definitely buy this gun, it's effective for both indoor and outdoor airlift play
by James B. on 09/15/2014
"This pistol feels amazing right out of the box. One of my favorite parts of this gun is that it can take c02 mags and green gas so you can use this gun in the cold (both co2 and green gas shoot under 350).

Pros

Can take co2 and green gas
Full metal
Mag capacity
Co2 isn't too hot for indoors
