This is one very popular gun to replicate. Tokyo Marui is certainly not the first to do it, but what is the thing that makes them different and more desirable? For starters – the look of the TM Colt 1911A1 is certainly more realistic than the WA’s Colt. The gun looks great and I don’t think anyone can deny that. Also, this time TM did an amazing job with the manufacture – TM guns have always had a problem with the moulding seams (visible, rough), not this time – you won’t notice even a slight sign of seams on this gun. The weight is also something you’ll like – the gun feels heavy and solid, still the weight is distributed amazingly well. This makes it very easy to move around, aim, and hold the gun steady. Being a 1911A1, this gun features a curved backstrap and a shorter trigger than the earlier 1911 model. Performance-wise the gun is just as good as it looks. The accuracy is amazing and we can absolutely call that gun powerful. You also get some pretty powerful blowback, which feels really close to the real gun. Here are some specifications:
- Length: 218mm
- Weight: 800g
- Power: 300fps
- Capacity: 26rds
- Built material: ABS
- System: Gas blowback
One of the things people complain about this gun is the efficiency. Usually with a full charge you can empty the entire magazine, but don’t expect more. Consider that before getting the gun. Another thing some don’t like is the loudness. Usually that’s not a bad thing, considering that this brings the replica closer to the real thing, but keep in mind that the 1911A1 is loud. Other than that this one great gun to have. TM have finally proved that they can match the quality of KSC and Western Arms. The Colt 1911A1 is not only a great looking gun, but just as great performer. Consideration is a must.
