Elite Force Full Metal 1911 A1 CO2 Airsoft Gas Blowback Pistol Umarex KWC

"Picked up this 1911 as a boneyard purchase along with my PPSH-41 EBB. It required some work (typical for boneyard guns) but once it was repaired it worked like a champ! It has been my go-to sidearm for the past 3 years. It's reliable, accurate, and durable, and has a decent heft to it. Magazine capacity leaves a little to be desired (only 13-14 rounds, plus one in the chamber), but mags cost around $25-$30 so you can get extras without breaking the bank; $40 will net you an extended mag that holds around 26 rounds. The orange tip also doubles as a threaded adapter to attach a suppressor.

As it is a GBB, make sure to oil it regularly (use GBB oil; can be found on Evike for 10 bucks). Both you and the gun will be happier for it.

My only gripe about the gun is the design of the orange tip/threaded adapter. The threads on the larger end rotate in the opposite direction from the threads on the smaller end. This means that tightening the adapter into the suppressor loosens it from the gun, and vice-versa. If you run a suppressor you will have to check it every once in a while to ensure that it isn't going to fall off. However, as this is more of an aesthetic issue and doesn't affect the actual performance of the gun, it doesn't change my positive opinion of it.

If you're looking for an inexpensive sidearm that'll pull its weight when the going gets tough, pick up one of these 1911s!

"Absolutely incredible gun! I’ve had this gun for about 2 years now and have put it through some brutal airsoft games. I’ve crashed into buildings with this gun and have dropped it multiple times and it has held firm like a champ! I’ve still never had any problems with this gun and it is definitely worth the 100 bucks. 10/10

"awesome gun has a nice weight to it
