    The gun is OEM'd by WE. It has its own mags (aren't compatible with other brands. The efficiency on gas is crap, only shoots maybe 10-15 of the 17 rounds. The guns does the job, accurate enough, full metal with really nice externals. Their sights and grips are quite good. Although the trare off is tgat it is not 100% marui compatible and some o the internals (the hop up, out barrel and bushing are crap, especially the hop up unit. ) my recommendation is to order the asg(kjw) one for 100. It's cheaper, full metal, co2/green gas compatible and has compatibility with marui parts. Otherwise she'll ogr8 for the Tokyo Marui.

    Well I am a bit of a pistol fanatic. What is it you want from your pistol? Full metal? Heard hitting? Long range/accuracy? Gas consumption? Cheap? Expensive? Pick from them and then name the type and I can hopefully be of some help to you.

    Oh, well I definitely want it to be full metal, decent range and accuracy, at least one mag per fill of gas on an average day with green gas, in and around the 130-170 mark. I like modern pistols so glocks and 1911 meu etc. Just not m9's
    Thanks

    Ok so full metal: rules out Tokyo marui (best on the market for performance and gas consumption)
    Green gas and modern rules out the classic 1911's by kwc and kj.

    If you full metal, modern and cheapish (130) go for the kj Sig p226. Which you can buy or make grips that aren't abs. The eentire gun is full metal and isn't an m9.

    Otherwise for performance/gas consumption go for Tokyo Marui (knight warrior or 5-7)
    For metal and modern go for the Blackwater meu 1911 by kwc (it's co2 though)

    And if you want metal green gas that will be decent enough go for kjw Sig or 1911.

    Failing the above get a clear springer or a spud gun. If yoy ever want to have a feel of the different pistols (plastic, metal, co2, green gas etc. Let me know you can try nine in the hive or over in tallaght)

    Note this as well for the kjw sig p226 if green gas doesn't work out.

    No worries, it's a fairly recent release and my friend had a kjw sig so I heard about it.
