Matrix Carbine Conversion Kit for 1911 MEU Series Airsoft GBB Pistols (Color: Dark Earth)

"Okay so I bought this as a joke with my airsoft team thinking I might use it for a game or two but I really like it and now run it as one of my primary's. The gun I installed was the elite force 1911a1 and it only needed minor Dremel work to fit. The build construction was overall on the cheaper side of things but it feels somewhat sturdy when in use. I like the added bonus of the metal rails as it reinforced the polymer body. Overall a pretty good product but be gentle with the charging handle because the arm is a small thin piece of plastic pulling the slide back.

Pros:
*head Turner on the field and looks sleek with a flashlight and stubby grip
*Metal rails
*Decent construction
*Overall a pretty good platform to improve upon pistol stabilization
*Racking the bolt is super satisfying

Cons:
*Cheaper polymer construction
*Bolt arm is plastic and feels like it might break
*Minor Dremel work required for most guns (I wouldn't suggest this unless you know what you're doing mechanically or someone you know does)


Overall a pretty sweet little platform

"did the conversion last weekend,no modifications needed fit my elite force 1911a1 perfectly.put my red dot on it sighted it in ready for the next time on the field.nice job guys

"I bought this kit for Christmas and it's nice in all but it's only for a person who is willing to build and conquer problems. Nothing is exactly made for this kit so you will run into problems. What I'm saying it DONT BUY IT IF YOUR YOUNG OR DONT HAVE TOOLS

The problems I ran into. I used a we meu 1911 with no rails
1. The stock, it must be one that has a threaded end other wise you will need to invent a way to to make it work which I had to do.
2. The gun barely fit in I had to take apart a lot and even then I had to fight it in.

If your up for the battle and want a gun that's realistic and has a nice GBB kick then it's worth it.

"Yes this can fit a elite force 1911 tac, but with some problems. You will need to remove the thumb safety's on both sides then find something to prevent the grip safety from falling out. Also, the barrel is to high from the grip, in height, so you could not put a suppressor on it, as it would be tilted down. Even though you can't put a suppressor in it do to the charging hang being in the way. Overall. It looks really awesome with a angled foregrip and eotech sight, so I still like it. Does not work with a standard aeg buffer tube, so have fun hunting for one that fits, even though I managed to wedge mine in with a stock on so i t doesn't wobble. But it does twist. All it can do is make your 1911 tac cooler, and you can put attachments on it. As a pistol manic, 4/5

"Great product! As Evike stated, it required some mild modification, I had to sand down the inside of the operating rod (the piece that the charging handle is attached to.) The "20mm rails" are more like 21mm, all my optics and grips barely squeeze over the rails and nearly require a hammer. Although there are some mild drawbacks, I absolutely love mine and it was totally worth it! Much more stable shooting platform than a regular handgun.

Gun Used - WE 1911 Government

NOTE: Some AEG buffer tubes will not work.

"I put this kit over a Tokyo Mauri 1911 night warrior and had to trim out the rear of the kit with a dremel so the Ambidextrous safety would work. Also I had to put a spacer on the front half because the slide gets suck due to fitment issues. Not too bad for a plastic kit.

"It looks great, but I had it 10 min out of the box and the left side attachment for the pistol snapped off. Can not use it now. Waist of money for me. But, it is pretty cool looking.
