I have several 1911 models with the same drop down mags and they all work consistant the finish on this model and my remingtonsare definitely a plus but this gun and my Sig on my chrony registered 356 fps pretty consistently.Great buy.

Nothing

Don't expect more than 65 shots per co2;and safe shooting.

Wow what a nice gun looks and feels good in your hand l like the double safety the one thing that is a little tough is loading the magazine but with time you'll find ways to make it easier.

The loading of the magazine.

Wonderful gun. I'm shooting mostly blowback bb guns now. I started and found I like them. This one for me is second only to my Colt Commander. Great feel, great performance and accurate. As I usually note this is a smooth bore bb gun but it's still very accurate. I shoot indoors at about 10 to 15 feet. This will hold your shots to a descent group.

Very little.

Excellent pistol.

Why didn't U return it to Pyramid Air ? They are the best when it comes to replacing a pistol that is in stock ,,,

I had a problem with the gun after about 500 rounds the gun began to leak out the CO2 as soon as I started shooting. It was under 30 days old so i set out to get it repaired or replaced. While it took almost 2 months to get this handled (as I had to contact the American distributor) the new gun came today. I must say that this is still the most accurate BB pistol I've ever shot. At 10 to 15 feet the gun will shoot quarter sized groups. Assuming the problem doesn't reoccur (and this gun does feel much smoother) this will I believe remain my favorite blowback pistol. The 5 stars remain.

This pistol is a riot to shoot. The safety, sights, weight, mag release and blow back slide all make it feel like a 1911 firearm. Great trigger and accuracy make it a pleasure to shoot. Keeps your shooting skills sharp. I shoot it in my basement at 25 ft. into a cardboard box with stick on targets and a pillow inside box to keep BB's from bouncing back.

I get about 65 good shots before accuracy falls off. Could get a few more shots (10-15) if you adjust for the drop as the co2 pressure go down. All and all not bad. I get the co2 cartridges for about .50 a piece.

Very accurate gun. It is very easy to shoot from the very first shot. Everything feels great about the gun.

The blow back action is pretty strong and uses a lot of co2 so you don't get as many shots out if a cartridge as some other guns. Buying an extra mag is a good idea for extending shooting time without swapping co2

This gun fits my hand like aglove great weight looks like the real 45. it is well out together very tight slide no loose parts .Great blow back .takes a few clips to find out how it shoots i enjoy this gun very much.four clips to 12gr co2 not bad

a full size magazine

it,s diffacult to load bb,s in the clip. but still worth the time fun to shoot.buy it cant go wrong.

I agree about loading, but the more you load it, the easier it gets. It handles and shoots great.

Great weapon and much akin to the better 45's [or 1911's] out there with good weight and an excellent feel.

On ALL 45's or various AIRGUN manufacturer 1911's, an ADJUSTABLE rear sight would be really nice! True, the airgun models do have the under the barrel rail ==but== that can become impractical when you want to holster the weapon! Think about it!

Many clips of this type see users talking about the old fingernail spring-holding thing while getting those BB's into the clip horizontally ==but== the retention spring CAN be held by the clip retention spring but it takes a little practice! Have a small screwdriver handy and ==gently== bring the thin metal piece down to the very bottom of the clip and it should 'catch' on the left OR right side allowing you to then insert the BB's without trying to hold the spring down at the same time. Step two -- when you insert the BB, push the BB straight into the horizontal located BB hole AND AT THE SAME TIME you push the BB in push UPWARDS and the BB will go in there much more smoothly. When you're finished, move the spring retainer off its holding notch within the clip so it will return to its normal pressure against the inserted BB's. Practice with it since it beats the classic left fingernail holding of the spring with the right hand BB loading and fumbling therein.

Great gun, all metal construction and by far the best trigger pull in it's class.

The magazine loading his horrific even though I mastered it quite well. The spring catch is horrible and needs improvement

This is one of the better blowback BB pistols on the market. The Tangfoglio gun are comparable since they are manufactured by the same company. They have the same magazine issues. Overall this gun should be in your collection.
