Page 2 - Barra 1911 Reviews

Very cool and realistic looking and feel. Accuracy is better than average but I have more accurate pistols. Quieter than I thought which I like since I shoot in home and neighborhood. I think it more powerful than listed too. It was punching through cans and through 3 layers of cardboard behind the can. Very sleek pistol. Easy trigger

The loading is a bit annoying. Pull down the spring and load bb, but after its a bit difficult to get spring back up and the top bb will pop out when loading. Definitely need finger nails. Also compared to the other 1911 co2 pistols I own it goes through the co2 the fastest. 1 cartridge for 3 mag rounds.

It is very cool looking and sturdy but looks deadly. I like it the most out of all my 1911 pistols

I purchased this airgun (1911 steel BB full blowback) for a nick fury costume, as the smith and wesson airgun wasnt going to make it intime. I am very pleased with this purchase; the gun feels solid, and looks the part of a 1911. The finish is well done, and all components are mechanically sound that I can tell. Even the action on the gun is smooth and feels well made. I have not used the gun for plinking yet, but I will after Halloween and I am sure it will be fun.

Quality of the build. Finish and function. Haven't fired it yet. As with many I collect.

Subdue the white lettering.

Nice replica of a 1911 Tac.

The 1911 is a great gun weather ur a beginner or experienced. The 1911 feels great with the weight the look both on point. The only thing I don't really like would be the magazine pull the spring down from the mag and putting one by one. Unless there a proper way to do it , not sure n that's why I give it 4 stars other then that it would be 5

This gun came in with great shipping time. That's just the first plus. The gun itself is great quality with the metal slide that has a FULL blowback rather than these puny half blowbacks everyone else is selling. Gun is accurate, easy to use, and affordable. HIGHLY recommend

I love the weight of the 1911 airgun. It has fairly good accuracy and is very realistic with its full-metal construction and full blowback. I would highly reccomend this airgun.

It has such a good feel to it. Very realistic weight and handling. I loved it!

The gun arrived on time and is a high quality, accurate replica. Price and value are excellent.

Great replica. Realistic weight, heft and feel compared to my centerfire 1911's. Blowback is great. Accuracy is great. Customer service is great. It's been a pleasure dealing with Barra.

I just got around to trying out my 1911 today. Had a little problem at first(my bad), but after getting past that got 75 shots on a co2 and i shot fairly quick aimed shots about every few seconds! Great little gun and glad Barra had the flat mainspring housing on the grip! That was what sold me on the Barra 1911 aesthetically over the competition! Weight is great and I'm satisfied so far.

Very nice - quality reproduction - look , feel , finish - great for the price !! Downside - loading the mag [ my fingers are stiff ] , use a loader it helps ! fun to shoot , great action .

Man this air gun is the truth two mags and you can train away feels just like my real 1911 except I'm not wasting my ammo to train when you shot it for the first time and feel the recoil you will know you made the right choice when you chose BARRA air guns thanks Barra and keep up the great work

Feels like a real gun. Love the full metal. Great blowback action. The only downside is that it's fun to rapid fire but you run out of bbs so fast because it's a small mag

This gun is super nice and performs really well. I really did enjoy it.

Fit, finish and gas usage are all great with this pistol. Parts are interchangeable with my Swiss Arms 1911, so you can play with color combinations with no loss in shootability, I am sure the parts are interchangable with nearly all of the 1911 copies out there, as they seem to be manufactured by a small list of companies. Magazines are interchangeable as well. I love being able to field strip this gun. Recoil is crisp, and the sights are pretty good. Easy to correct the POI after a couple of shots. The pistols has a pretty good heft to it, even if lighter than the real steel it copies. I would feel completely confident in recommending this 1911 to a friend.

Put the white type under the trigger guard. Adjustable rear sights would be awesome, but not really necessary.

The grips are hard plastic and not particularly "grippy." I will probably add some rubber Hogue grips. Be forewarned, you will have to trim the bottom of the grips with an Xacto knife to accommodate the Co2 cylinder swell in the magazine.

I am a rather avid collector but my personal favorite is the 1911 replicas that are as close to there firearm counterparts as possible. This gives you a much realistic experience in training and saving a ton on ammo. When I first saw Barra's version of the 1911 tactical I just had a gut feeling it would be a well made air gun. It didn't disappoint. It's full metal construction gave it a very good weight and balance. The blowback was was crisp and responsive and gave it a nice feeling of sharp recoil like in the Swiss Arms 1911 try. It was fair when accuracy tested shooting ever so slightly up and to the right. I tested at 15 20,and 25 ft respectively . With a little sight adjustment it performed very well. If your a novice or intermediate shooter you can't go wrong with this gun either adding or starting a collection this 1911 replica fits the bill and is very modestly priced, it's really a nice pistol to own.

,Overall very little. As I did say above mine did shoot just very small deviation of high and slightly right but the was easy to remedy once you readjusted and went thru a few mags. I'm really a stickler when it comes to any loose rattling sounds but I'm really OCD about so the tolerances I'd like to see a little tighter but it would most likely no bother most people. Well it's a very good pistol and well worth the price

Exercise extreme caution.if shooting outdoors. This is a replica and a very well made one. Law enforcement will think it is a firearm!!! So as always practice safe carrying and shooting at all times

Amazing quality and finish. This pistol looks and feels like a real 1911. I couldn't be happier with this item. The operation of the pistol is spot on and I would heartily recommend "The 1911" as an addition to anyone's replica collection.

Great clone of a 1911 firearm.

None.

Feels like a real 1911 firearm. Functions like one too and similar to take it down. The blow back power is great.

The weight and feel of my gun

Hard to load for big hands

Works well

I have a witness 1911 and wore it out. I enjoy shooting a 1911 style gun so I got the tactical 1911 from Barra I've only shot one co2 thru it. Love the sites and safety's on both sides, I am a ambidextrous shooter and the safety's are handy. I'm looking forward to warring this one out. Thanks Barra for the good service.
