Colt SAA .45 Peacemaker Gas Powered Revolver (Model: Cavalry Barrel / Blued)

"I got the short barrel/blued Colt. She's a beauty! An exact all-steel replica of a real Colt .45! Loading bullets, cocking, firing, are exactly the same. The plastic simulated wood handles look like highly polished burl. It's fun to shoot it in my basement. Airsoft bb's aren't exactly ideal for serious target practice. If that was what I had wanted, then I would have shelled out ten times the amount for a real Colt, and then I would have had to travel to a shooting range, and then clean the gun afterwards. With my airsoft Colt I can just plink targets around my basement any time I want to. Besides, I got it because it has the look, balance, and feel of a real Colt, enabling me to get in touch with my inner Clint Eastwood.

"I do not think that this is a bad gun, however, the gun came with almost every square inch full of imperfections in the metal (as if the metal had not been finished, but just formed and thrown together). Also, the gun's gas chamber barely held enough air for 2 cylinders, if that, but after some minor adjustments, (under the handle theres two large screws that I tightened) it can fire around 48 shots before audibly losing power. It is not a bad performing gun, however, it doesn't come from factory in the best shape, but I can't complain too much because a full metal 6 shooter .45 for $115 on sale is great. I would say buy it, because it's still a fine target gun or cowboy gun, and 5 minutes of unscrewing the handle and tightening the screws is nothing.

"I got this a few months ago needing to practice with an old 6 gun for an event. Out of the box for this purpose it's great; the look, feel, balance, & mechanical action are all excellent. With the shells that come with it I was getting 280-300~fps but only 14-18 shots before the gas was running out. This was because both the fill valve & gas chamber weren't screwed down tight enough & after a while it wouldn't hold gas long enough to fire 2-3 shots. After tightening them I was getting 320-350~fps & 48 shots out of the gas.

Now I was able to test it with other brands of shells as King Arms replacement shells are next to impossible to find in the U.S. & ridiculously expensive to get from other places. I've heard the Marushin X-Cartridge's work just as well but again hard to get so I can't confirm those.
Elite Force smoke wagon shells- The rubber O-ring in the back sticks out farther then the factory shells & drags on the inside fouling the action a little. they wobble a bit and will fit the Cylinder but are just too short to make it to the barrel, this causes the BB's to strike the edge as it moves through the gap shattering the BB into a sharp shotgun blast, so for safety DO NOT USE.
WinGun/Dan Wesson shells- These Wobble a little more but are the exact length needed, the only problem is the tip of the shell is a hair more narrow so depending on how it lays the BB's will rub the sides acting like an uncontrollable hopup flinging the BB left, right, or down after about 5~ft. can be used but VERY inaccurate

PRO's
-Looks & feels good
-Action is smooth
-Well balanced (good for spin tricks)
-Good FPS & gas usage(after fixes)
-Shells can be front loaded in the gun without needing to be taken out

CON's
-Poor FPS & gas usage(before fixes)
-Out of the box It required some work to get it to operate properly/reliably
-Replacement/ Alternative shells that will work are almost non-existent in availability

In the end its a good gun Just be awear you may have to tweak the gas system
