This bb pistol is perfect for training on the Colt 1911 and other brands of the same type. It weighs the same, operates the same including blow back slide when you fire it. I would not allow a child or teen to take this pistol out in public. Because it looks just like a real Colt 45. The only down side is, it's a bit tedious to load the magazine one bb at a time. It would be nice to have two or three magazines for this reason. Other than that. I highly recommend this. BB's are alot cheaper than bullets for practice in ones back yard.

The make and weight resemble the original, but at least the pistol I received keeps malfunctioning. Usually, after inserting a freshly loaded magazine, it tends to get "stuck" with the slide fully back (like when after you fire the last BB). Whether this is a faulty magazine or not - I can't tell.

Other than the lack of a heavier recoil, These are just like a 1911 pistol in operation and Feel. It is perfect to get trigger time behind a 1911 type pistol without the hassle and expense of going to a range or finding a safe place to shoot. Others have reported that it is a bearcat to load The magazine, but I just took a 100 ml luer slip syringe that I got from a farm supply store, cut the tip of it off to where BBs just passed through it, and filled it with BBs. making a homemade speed loader that you put in front of the Spring plunger after pulling it down all the way and let gravity feel The magazine instead of putting the BBs in one at a time, Making it very easy and fast, instead of slow and tedious to load. Also somebody said that it needs a safety, it has two safeties just like a real 1911 has that both operates just like a real 1911. Apparently The reviewer needs to learn how to use the 2 safeties that is inherent to this pistolRead full review

Good weight on this pistol due to its all metal construction. Sound is not too loud. If buying one used/refurbished make sure you have an Allen wrench to fit the co2 key. My only complaint is that once the clip is emptied, I can’t load bbs fast enough to get back to shooting!

I own more than 50 air guns and for now, this one is my favorite. It is a quite realistic model of the 1911 experience from the functional mechanical features to the weight and feel.
