Crosman GI Model 1911 CO2 Blowback BB Pistol

I RETURNED THE ITEM. NEVER TOOK OUT OF PACKAGE

Not much

The trigger, slide don't do anything and are superfluous, and misleading.

Perfect Combo: Purchased this pistol; and the Crosman 1077 rifle sporting a wood stock. Both guns as a combination are a perfect fit. ( Crosman, are you listening ? ) Both offer full strength shots for 4 magazines worth. At least 2 additional magazines worth are possible but with reduced power and accuracy. The rifle is good out to 25 yds, the pistol is good out to 20 yds. Best at 15 yds. The look and feel of both are very impressive. Since purchase I have about 1000 rounds shot through each. Each gun has a great conservation of Co 2 gas. I mean that when tightening the screw for the Co 2 cartridge, only a quarter of a turn is required and very little gas is expelled while tightening.

Nothing as far as the pistol is concerned. Other than possibly offering an adjustable rear sight. Although it is really not needed. The rifle has a plastic magazine and receiver, would prefer metal. Do not know how long the plastic will last with prolonged use. ( Crosman are you listening ? )

Cannot fathom why anyone would write a review as they are opening the darn box. Wait till you shoot the darn thing and have at least a 1000 rounds down range. I had to exchange the first pistol; for a second. The magazine consistently fell out of the grip after every shot. The exchanged pistol; has so far worked without deficiencies. No problems experienced yet with the rifle. The pistol came with a holster. All for the same price as the non blow back version.

The weight, feel, and look of the gun. Like the real thing.

The allen key falls out when you take the handles off. I like everything else tho.

When you put a new tank in the first shots are literally a blast. it really has kick to it lol.

Looks and feels authentic nice finish satin black with brown grips great color combo. A very nice 1911 Replica

I would change nothing.

Well made piece, nice heft feels great, top shelve craftsmanship excellent copy Go Crosman GI 1911

Feels like the real thing, it has the weight. Have now gone through 10 CO2s and about 500 BBs and it is still performing well. Shooting in a cooled basement at about 68 - 70 *F. Have not tried this outside where its about 90 - 100 * F but would expect a longer lasting CO2 at higher temps. and also a faster BB.

I like the 20 BBs that the 'magazine' holds but it can be a pain to load, one at a time. And when releasing the spring if one does not press securely against the first BB it will be ejected. So I would like to see a system where one could pour in the BBs and release the spring without loosing a BB. Other than that this is a really good BB gun.

This is a very realistic BB gun copy of the 1911... do not wave this around outside you, may get shot by the police!
The slide does not always lock after shooting the last BB.
And yes always add a drop of PellGun oil to the tip of the CO2 cartidge prior to loading it.

Realistic slide and metal feel, also has semi-realistic recoil to it.

Make it able to fire with hammer not just trigger pull.

I like the way the BB' were able to load by holding down the magazine follower, also the rapid fire on this air pistol was very good. As fast as you could pull the trigger it would fire. Price was very good for this type of air pistol.

I would put an adjustable rear sight and if possible fire this gun single action by pulling the rear hammer,

Double action was not that bad but whoever wrote that this air pistol will go through both sides are a soup can was not true, unless I got a lemon or the temperature was not at where it should have been.When the temperature starts to warm I will chronograph this air pistol to see if the velocity is what they advertise. This air pistol was only fired at about 10 feet in a basement with a pellet trap and the BBs bounced out.

Great feel and weight. Good power and co2 consumption.

Trigger pull very heavy and my finger slides down into the bottom of the trigger guard that has a v grover so single action would be great. It get painful after repeated shooting.

Same coments about the mag. I tryed to shorten the spring, big mistake now it dosn't eject the bbs but it dosnt stop the slide on the last shot or shoot the las bb. The heavier lead excite smart shot BBS I just got seem to work better.
Crossman will have mags available by mid April. $11.50

I like that crosman made this pistol powerful and have a high shot count per co2 powerlet! I have seen a video where this pistol shot 80 rounds over a chrony between 405 fps and 460 fps...that is awesome! The look and feel of this pistol is perfect, it feels like an extension of my hand and once I got used to the trigger pull, this gun put rounds with a half inch of where I was aiming from 10 meters away.

Nothing...iam grateful for these new designs in air pistols were the barrel is the hammer...it must be why they seem to be the most powerful semi automatic bb pistols available.
