    Bad Points: Some minor jams can occur, but in only 2-3 days I have it, I can resolve them very easy. (Sometimes it's just after you dissassemble/reassemble it, but don't cry,it's never dramatic.)Maybe the price when you buy in Canada (280 $, shipping included), but anywhere else it's something like 80$-180 $.The FPS depend of the temperature (yeah, GBB's are like that, like other gas guns...). Never use under 10 celcius degrees, because the gas will freeze and even break your gun. Your friends may be jealous.


    General comments: This gun is really heavy, very realistic. When you shoot with the WE-Tech it's the best day of your week !Not as recoil as a real, but with propane it's really nice !For low-caps magazines,the propane autonomy isn't that bad. Sometimes the final recoil will not work, but it's a sign you don't put enough propane in it.For people who like markings (I don't know why...) : on the barrel it's mark'.45 ACP'', and near the trigger, you can find a'WE'' in a little circle.There is 3 safety on the gun.It's a GBB.The Tokyo Marui 1911's are in plastic (you can upgrade with aluminium pieces, with an extra cost), but WE Tech is in metal.The box is great !
    It comes with 2 mags, so you can wait before buying others (cauz shoot with only one mag is not very practical).For those who don't have MIL surplus in their city,you can buy a holster at Wal-Mart, it perfectly fit (but it's not as cool as a real).Don't forget the silicon oil ! It will make your gun last longer, and working better.Just add silicon oil on the top of your propane tank,put the propane adaptor,and put a bit of oil in the mag holes. It prevent leaking ( I know, I tried and test it) and makes you lost less propane.The magic of propane in mags : 2 x 5 secs.(More than this can make the gaz freeze and break your rubber O-ring inside them.)It's really a very nice gun ( I'll never write it enough !), you MUST buy it if you want a good quality GBB, or just a good sidearm (like me !).

    I would first like to say, that I have owned many guns in the past. From CA, ICS, TM, Echo 1, KJW, and WE. I love all my guns dearly and I clean and decompress the spring to all of my aeg, and lube the slide and the barrel of my gas guns. Basically the point is, is that I am not being biased just trying to give the average airsofter a perspective from my experiences. With that said let me start off with the "bad" points. Straight up this gun is a gas guzzler. The magazine design is poorly made s ...

    Granted, I do have limited experience with GBB pistols - KWC 1911 and K99, KWA M945 and M9, and the KJW M9 - but I don't think you'll find an airsoft gun that's much more accurate than this thing. I was able to punch 5-shot groups at under an inch at a distance of 16-17 feet (resting the heel of the pistol). I've had pellet pistols with rifled barrels that aren't as good.

    I haven't chronied it, but the usable range is certainly no worse than my M945. Power seems to be about the same... but si ...
