Overall a not bad pistol.
I have had this gun for about 18 months now.
My one was an older purchase which did come with two mags but cost nearer £120 rather than the new price. The range and consistency is great, in fact better than my old Combat Machine and feels great to use and hold.
However, this pistol is extremely fussy on gas. Zeroone Pro Gas would not even cycle the weapon in a warm home, the minimum is WE Premium and that is still likely to fire only a few shots before cooling. The slide is also quite wobbly and them manufacturer paint rubbed off really easily (i did not have two-tone). The slide catch has worn and rounded and is a bit iffy.
So overall, DO NOT buy this gun if you want an all year workhorse( buy a plastic TM). But DO buy this gun if you want a great feeling and shooting gun that you can only use during the warmer months. |

My first airsoft purchase, I give it 4/5,
the missing point will be the fact i was under the impression that this pistol came with 2 magazines, after countless youtube reviews of the gun and unboxings revealing that everyone i seen buying this gun got their 2 mags, i opened the box to find only 1. I called up zero one and they checked their stock and said the manufacturer must not be doing that anymore, wow how great, so i told them to change the details on this item, so now it no longer tells you there is a spare mag,
EVERYTHING ELSE
great pistol, very satisfied with the paint job for two tone lookswise, but durability, the paint literally scratches off. will come in handy for when i have UKARA and i remove all the paint.
i would defininitely recommend this to another rookie airsofter like myself |

As soon as you open the box you'll go wow !
I had mine painted two tone and you would not believe it had been done by Zero One, the quality of the paint work looks like it was made that way by the manufacturer.
Its a heavy weight but you should expect that as its all metal. It' a lot louder compared to a plastic model but nothing bad and it gives that little bit more realism to it. You can still use it in the house without the neighbours complaining.
The Blow bag is great, nice and smooth and not too hard so you can use it with one hand.
Two magazines is a bonus as it takes a while to load, the spring is very strong and there is just a tiny bit of plastic to hold it down with. If you have large fingers its easy to lose your grip. With two mags though, you can get 30 rounds setup.
The slide catch works a treat so you know when you've used the last round. No more firing nothing if you don't count the shots fired.
The only negative thing that I can say about this product is the instruction booklet. Its very basic and not the best of english. I know you need to keep the gun lubricated but there is nothing in there to say where or how to do that or how often it needs to be done.
If anyone is loking for a good starting GBB, then you can't go much wrong with this one. |

This is a great looking gun and a classic model, i got this gun as a display piece and it looks amazing, the feel and weight of this gun is very good, the slide action is very nice, has 2 mags with it as well which is great value and a bonus to display, green side as i dont have a licence but it does not take away anything from the look. it was very well sent and very well packaged, if you like guns just for there looks its a good choice to get this gun, 1911 is a classic and worth the money. |
|
Personally, I love this pistol the only issue I have is that the magazines can be quite temperamental. but as ive researched its just an issue with the small gas reservoir in slim type 1911 pistols aha. Hope to have it see more action soon |

Great gun got it a while ago and its great took it to a skirmish and it really helped me out in some situation the blow back effect is pretty cool and so far not many problems other than it does rattle a bit and it gets through your gas quite quickly but other than that great gun. |
|
Only down side is the slide rattles a lot, doesn't seem very sturdy. Except that everything else is perfect! my starter pistol and shall remain with me until it dies |

just got this today and wow first off it comes with 2 mags which is a great deal. The because i don't have a UKARA i got it 2 tone it came with a green slide which honestly i don't mind. the weight is great. It came pre gassed which is a bonus.I love this gun |

Really excited to get this 1911, looks and feels amazing, only problem is that i've never been able to skirmish with it. Out of the box it would only fire once then nothing. took it back to where i bought it and they charged me to replace the seals on the mags, still doesnt work, unless your happy with one shot per mag, great shame. Had I known of the problems and the cost involved in trying to get it right I would have gone for a more well known grand. still gutted about it and will try one last time to get it working as it does look great |

Only buy this if you have experience. I honestly enjoyed this gun. I owned several, yet they are a lot of hassle to keep in perfect working order. On the plus side though, construction is solid, it takes real steel grips, and the gun is nicely weighted. Certainly one of the best feeling "out of the box" full metal 1911 pistols. A lack of trades may put off collectors. As a skirmish side arm it works. It is a working gun, not a thing of beauty, paint flakes off fast and the ejection port takes a lot of wear. The accuracy and power are both excellent, though it is let down by hammer issues and the need to file and tweak the hammer. Overall good gun, just let down by reliability and it's inability to cycle fast in cold weather. |

Great gun for a decoration piece and great for looking cool. With mine, i sanded of the paint on the slide and a few other smaller parts and then used wire wool to give it a lovely smooth texture which might take some know how to completely disassemble but now it look amazing. If your looking for a skirmishing gun this is NOT for you. The reliability of this gun is pretty damn poor, it runs out of gas in about 8 shots whereas the magazine has much higher capacity of about 15 rounds... (I think) and only occasionally locks back on empty. Another thing, on the plus side this time (sort of) is that it can take actual 1911 grips with only very little struggle. back to the bad... the hammer can sometimes be a little bit of a struggle to physically umm... go forward... if thats the right terminology. back on the good... the gun is very easily disassembled nearly the same as the real steel and if you so wish to use it on the field (unrecommended) a jam can be solved or what ever you need to do.
All of that aside, the gun is a great replica and i absolutely LOVE it, even more so after all the modifications, it makes it my own and although the shooting is poor, its still a great gun, a little bit pricey in my view but would definitely recommend it for anyone who wants a bit of a challenge in modifying and lovely, personal gun. |
