The Airsoft GI Big Summer Sale is near and this is an event that you don’t want to miss, not least of which is because LevelCap from LevelCap Gaming will be there, and anyone who shows up will have a chance to try out two of the newest and most excited guns to hit the market in a long time: The brand-spanking-new Krytac Trident M4 CRB AEG and the Tippmann M4 Carbine that runs on C02/HPA!!!

I have been using a certain CO2 pistol since just before Tim VS Bob IV/4.5 which has now become a permanent part of this Axe Man’s armory and it is…The Elite Force 1911 Tactical CO2 Blowback Pistol!
Ever since we started carrying Elite Force 1911’s at Airsoftgi.com and GItactical.com I have had many chances to fire them and every time I marvel at not only their out-of-the-box accuracy but, more importantly for me, the incredible amount of recoil. Now, the recoil might not be “revolutionary” per se, but going from green gas pistols which have significant recoil to the Elite Force 1911 felt like taking a dip in very cold water, in other words it was shocking. There is a LOT of recoil on this gun and as such it was much more fun to shoot than any other gas pistol in my armory.
Thankfully, I was able to purchase one just before Tim VS Bob IV/4.5 and thereby got quite a bit of field testing in with said pistol. One of the things I noticed while on the east coast is that my Elite Force 1911 did respond much better to colder weather than I ever would have expected my other green gas pistols to. I was able to achieve solid hits on targets further out and in colder weather than I would have ever been able to had I used a pistol running on green gas. Now, this is not to say that an Elite Force 1911 will always function in cold weather, but that it will perform above comparable green gas pistols in cold weather simply because of the fact that it is designed well and uses CO2 to function.

The WG CO2 Non Blowback 1911 Airsoft Gun ( Black ) is not meant for use against live targets. The velocity on this gun is over 500 FPS with .20g BBs and therefore should only be reserved for target shooting. The entire gun is made of plastic and the only moving parts on it are the trigger and the safety. The CO2 is loaded into the pistol grip and is sealed very well, the magazine is a slender double stack magazine that holds 15 rounds. This is a purpose built target shooting pistol for you to practice your draw and your aiming.
