    Things I liked:

    First of all, WOW! Second, it’s a $100 BB gun not a $2000 acurized Ball Gun so the fit is not going to be as tight. That said, it is a great way to practice sight recovery for sustained fire. Compared to the Springfield 1911 A1 powder burner. Weight w/loaded mag 2lb-2oz, PB 2lb-5oz w/o mag. All exterior dimensions are very comparable. Field strips whole slide at once or removing bushing and individual pieces. Removing main spring, manual and grip safety any 1911 guy will recognize all parts. Leaf spring can be adjusted, however, the air mechanism affects most of the trigger pull. If you are used to a roll trigger, you will love it.

    Things I would have changed:

    I shoot left handed. The indent on the manual safety is not very strong and the combination of the recoil and my finger keeps engaging the manual safety. Thinking of a solution. Drill a small hole in the magazine loading block to insert a steel pin to hold open while loading BB's. Much easier on the thumb.

    Things I liked:

    I finally got to order this great replica and I'm thinking seriously about ordering a second. I have been a competitive 3 Gun Bullseye shooter for many years and competed at the National Matches at Camp Perry Ohio. Back in the early 1980s this same Springfield Armory produced a bare bones 1911 A1 "KIT" gun that came unassembled with the major parts groups in plastic baggies. Priced at, Parkerized for $250.00 and Blued for $275.00, there has never been a better deal. This replica is the spitting image of the Parkerized version (minus target sites) I sent off to Jimmy Clarke Custom Guns in Keithville Louisiana and had him make me a "Hardball Gun" which I still have. Although I had carried a 1911 A1.45 in Vietnam I never really mastered it until I was out of the Service. I'm writing this review backwards since I don't have mine yet but if you can find Dennis Adler's 5 Part Review this promises to be one amazing replica pistol. I'll add to this review when I get mine.

    Things I would have changed:

    Nothing to change.
