"Nice backup sidearm. Good weight. Nice kick - but not too much. Smooth action. I only have two drawbacks to mention:
1. the almost white grips are way too bright. I just had to get something darker. When I took off the grips to install some black ones (which look real nice with the other black furnature on this gun); I found a weigth inside each grip. I could not install these weights into the new grips and it lightenned up the whole gun considerably. It is not a bit front-heavy. I am going to try melting some fishing sinkers (outside - do not melt lead in your house!) and moulding some new weights to fit in my new grips.

2. Magazine capacity of 14 rounds is good for Sim games, but pretty small for all-out battling. If you are going to do a pistol only scenario then go with a hicap pistol instead. If you only want a reliable backup sidearm then this gun is great!

I use a drop-leg SERPA style plastic molded holster and it goes in and out real nice. I highly recommend it.

"This review is written with me having owned this airsoft gun since 2012. This pistol is decent but a bit pricey considering how the quality of this gun doesnt warrant the near $170 in my opinion. Externally the gun is nice. The finish of the gun isnt very durable but it still looks nice overall, just make sure to keep the gun in a case if you live in a humid environment. The iron sights are the "novak" style sights which have nice bright white dots on the front and rear sight. The action of the gun is solid and is very smooth if you lubricate the slide properly. The main seal of the gun is poor though and will need replacing from time to time. In my time owning the gun Ive had to replace the main seal 3 times, even with proper maintenance. The hop up does its job and can hop .23g-.25g bbs out to a bit past 100ft which is more then enough for the applications of a pistol.
The major gripes I have with this gun come in the form of the slide catch and old generation magazines (the 14rd ones). The slide catch is incredibly loose and doesnt hold the slide securely when locked back. The gun will actually drop the slide when inserting a loaded magazine if you have the slide locked to the rear. This function also isnt an issue but an intended part of the design which I think is really dumb. If this gun is going to be considered a "professional training pistol" then why would the gun NOT function as closely to a real firearm as possible? Also the old gen magazines have rather weak plastic baseplates and extremely strong follower springs so youll have to trim some of the spring off to prevent long term damage to your baseplates.
Overall I would say this gun isnt a bad purchase but I also wouldnt recommend it. In the span of when this gun released to now, there are now plenty of good options for airsoft pistol that you can purchase and almost all the guns in this 1911's price range would probably make for better purchases.

"The gun is a solid piece of equipment like most KWA products. Have owned this gun for over a year now and it has not failed me once. I play out in the field and believe me this thing has gotten dirty from crawling around in the dirt. If you clean this gun, keep it lubed and use the type of gas recommended you won't have any problems.

It shots hard and accurate. I have the older model with the 12 round mags. That's the only down side but KWA has released the 21 round double stack mag for the 1911 series. So it's a win win again. The older mags do however have issues. Such has not holding enough gas to get through a full mag, or the O rings falling out where you fill the gas. Hence "you got it" the release of the new mags!!

I don't recommend using any type of hard shell fast draw holster with this gun. A very common issue is that the mag release button gets pushed while holstered or upon draw and you end up losing your mag or it falling out in your hand. Just some food for thought. I've actually lost a mag due to this issue and have had my mag fall into my hand while drawing my weapn while using these holsters.

I would give it 5 out of 5 but since my weapon is older and came with the 12 round mags it gets a 4 out of 5.

"Bought this gun 6 months ago. GREAT at first... I played in many games and it worked great. Until a 2 months ago when the mag catch started to break. After every shot, the mag falls out. Cant figure out how to fix it. If anyone can help, please comment.

"Let it be said that this gun is an accurate representation of an actual fire arm, has good power for a cqb environment and is very accurate. Unfortunately it is very unreliable and poorly made. I have had numerous problems with this gun. I am a very experienced air softer and followed all the directions. The first time this gun failed me is when the air nozzle in the slide (the black thing that propels the bb and can slide back and forth that also takes bb from the mag) broke in half. I was firing it as normal and it just broke and flew out. This was so recently after I bought it that it had less than 500 shots through it. Luckily it was under warranty. The total shipping costs to get it there and back was excess of 20 dollars and took the majority of the summer. Shortly after I got it back the thumb safety gave me troubles. On a real gun the thumb safety is very strong and takes some strength to engage it. On this toy gun it is very flimsy and comes on and off while while you are barley touching it. If the pressure screw on the trigger is not perfectly adjusted the gun will fire with the safety on but the slide cannot move back and all the gas in the mag ties out into your face. Eventually the thumb safety fell off of the gun. once again this was still under warranty and i sent it back for another 20+ dollars to get it fixed. I lost interest in airsofting for the most part because of this gun. Another year goes by with little use and regular maintenance and I go back to use it. This time the barrel lug (yes the metal piece at the tip of the gun that keeps everything together) broke in half on the first shot and sent the pieces flying everywhere. I picked up all the pieces and proceeded to order the part. Not to mention how crappy the magazines on this are. They market the metal tips as a plus and that these mags are the best you can get. Unfortunately they are lying. The bb follower is very sticky and is so hard to pull it back that it breaks your nails so you need a screwdriver to do so. Even then the lock doesn't always work and it can slam forward and send bbs flying everywhere. This gun is extremely overpriced as well. It i the most expensive gas pistol you can get for the most part and that is not factoring in all the money you will have to put into fixing it. It has probably cost me about 220 plus dollars to keep this gun kind of working. My friends WE G17 has been more reliable than this. Very disappointed in KWA
