Trigger Pull: Good in both single and double action. Once the slide is pulled back and released, the first round is chambered and the hammer will remain back, placing the pistol in single action mode. The pull is light and the take-up is nice and short. Most of your shots will be in single action mode unless you use the decocker to lower the hammer for a subsequent double action follow-up shot. Double action shots are still light but are much longer in order to cock the hammer back.

Accuracy: Here is what I had to say about the Cybergun Gas Magazine version: "Shooting the Cybergun Sig P226 from 20 feet out in semi rested position I was able to get very good results. I placed 10 rounds in about 1.5 inches with the shot placement being a bit low possibly due to my barrel mod, adjusting the hop-up may bring the aim point back up to where it should be. The Sig Sauer P226 Airsoft Replica shot right around the 316 fps range while conducting my 5 shot average chrony testing which was lower than advertised but I was using much heavier .20 gram BB's. You can expect to get a full magazine worth of shots out of each gas fill-up but I did notice that as the magazine got colder it did tend to become much less efficient and also seemed to vent a lot of vapor.

Build Quality: The build quality for all KJ Works guns is one of the best in the business. Fit and finish is top notch with close tolerances in the working parts as you would find in a real steel gun. The paint is excellent and will wear much better than other airsoft guns out there. The KJ Works KP-01 E2 (Sig Sauer P226) Airsoft Pistol is pretty much all metal and feels it, the recoil spring is nice and firm and all working parts are smooth and crisp when operated.

Realism: The KJ Works KP-01 E2 is a replica of the real steel Sig Sauer P226 with the exception of the licensing. It's a great-looking and functioning airsoft replica. You can field strip this gun exactly like a real Sig Sauer and all the mechanical parts work just the same, including a working decocker and adjustable front sight. It is really hard to distinguish the airsoft version from the real Sig P226 in both looks and feel.

Pros:

• All metal pistol with good overall realistic weight to it
• Crisp and firm full blowback operation
• Some of the best fit and finish in the industry
• Accurate looking and working Sig Sauer P226 replica
• Working decocker
• White dot sights for quick target acquisition
• Front sight adjustable for windage
• Full size drop out magazine holds airsoft BBs and CO2
• Supports both CO2 and gas magazines
• Fully field strippable

Cons:

• No Sig Sauer licensing
• CO2 Mag sticks out a bit and adds to size

Comments: I am a huge Sig Sauer fan so I have high expectations with a replica gun! The KJ Works lineup as a whole is really fantastic, and what I say about the KJ Works KP-01 E2 can be said about the entire lineup. KJ Works makes a well-built product that replicates the real steal version almost exactly other then they shoot airsoft BBs instead of actual bullets. When holding a KJ Works gun in the hand you can feel the quality in its weight and balance, especially when operating the slide, trigger, and other working parts. Everything just feels so perfect and responsive. For the money you cannot go wrong with the KJ Works KP-01 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol or any other KJ Works gun for that matter.
