EMG x Salient Arms International 2011 DS 5.1 Airsoft GBB Pistol (Color: Black CNC Steel Limited Edition Semi Auto/ Green Gas / Gun Only)

"Excellent pistol that has been my main gun ever since I bought it. I got the steel model which is a bit extra but totally worth it (to me). Very nice weight, good kick from the heavy steel slide, and once I upgraded the inner barrel and the Guarder hop-up chamber (did require a little filing to make fit), I can hop .32's no problem and compete just as well as the rifles on the field. Mine chronos at about 380 with .2's now, and about 1.5J with .32's.

"I got it about a week ago shot at least 50 mags and love it. This is a full metal upper and lower frame pistol that feels amazing in hand and to shoot. I recommend lubricating it every 5~10 games.

Pros:
Looks really cool
Nice accuracy within about 50-75ft
Good FPS range
GREAT for first GBB
Looks better than most Airsoft GBB pistols in my opinion

Cons:
Kind of heavy, the lower frame is metal

"I won this at an Evike store grand opening raffle and I love it!

"A great replica of the SAI 2011 from transformers and performs well!

"Got this gun a few weeks ago and let me say I am 100% satisfied with the built quality and performance so far.

Pros:
High build quality
SAI trademarks
Realistic weight
Under barrel rail for attachment
Amazing blowback
Good accuracy and range

Cons:
It is a big heavy due to the full metal construction, feels like a real steel 2011! (This can be a total pro)

Overall, 5/5 would definitely recommend for any collectors and war gamers

"I bought this on Black Friday on sale and I have to say it is a good buy.
As a collector and big fan of the firearm this handgun is happiness. If you enjoy collecting Airsoft replicas and knows the difference between a toy and a high-quality replica, then this is for you.

"This pistol is heavy than most so if you are looking for something with polymer built on a traditional Airsoft this is not for you. Otherwise, this pistol feels extremely nice and is by far the best looking Airsoft GBB hands down I have ever own.

"I bought this pistol a little under 1 year ago and it has never let me down. It is an extremely realistic Airsoft replica, and the training value is superb when you are looking for trigger weight, blowback kick, and realistic weight.

"Have run nearly 10,000 rounds and have yet to have an issue. Just clean and oil it regularly to keep it singing like a champ. Use a Tapp HPA drum mag.

"When you buy the this, I strongly recommend using a HPA fed drum mag. When using a drum mag in this the accuracy sky rockets and the amount of sustained fire is not to be trifled with. The pistol by itself is superbly accurate up to around 150ft and purrs like a kitten if kept well.

"I ordered mine and can't wait to get it. I have the semi-auto version which is amazing and would love to add this full-auto version to my collection of SAI!

"The gun feels great and runs very smoothly. The first CO2 mag leaked but Evike customer support was very helpful and they sent me a new one very quickly.

"I won this in the box of awesomeness and it bieng my first EMG product, I was blown away. The weight is amazing. (I can’t imagine how heavy the full steel version would be). It came with the Co2 magazine and since I live in colder climates,this is great. The one complaint is the magazine. The Co2 is a little hard to screw into the mag without pliers,but that isn’t too much of a surprise. The one that I received had a leaky magazine,but Evike covered that so I’m happy. If you got through this review without dying of boredom, then congratulations!!! Thanks for taking the time to read this.

"I finally bought this pistol about three months ago after eyeing it for a good while. My first side arm was an EF 1911 so I was looking to upgrade. Man oh man does this thing perform. I bought the 5.1 Green Gas version. It feels so good in your hand and has a really great weight to it. It feels solid to grip and aim with. The magazine has a really large baseplate that you have to take off to fill it with green gas, and thats kind of annoying. I use .28s with it and I have never touched the hopup and it shoots far and accurate. The flat trigger feels really awesome and allows for some good rapid fire which this pistol is very capable of.

Pros
Accurate
Good weight
Solid Grip
Mag Capacity both bbs and green gas
Good range
Mags are below $30
I could go on and on

Cons
Lare Baseplate, and having to remove it to fill with gas
(Personally I love the look the baseplate gives it)

Also, Evike recommends a Matrix hardshell holster, DO NOT BUY IT FOR THIS PISTOL. Buy a Blackhawk Serpa CQC for 1911s.

"This is by far the best gbb pistol I�ve ever bought great accuracy and great range must buy for all airsofters
