Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the KWC M1911 A1 Tac blowback BB Pistol is exactly what you would expect from a true single action 1911 styled pistol. It has a short take up and then a nice light and crisp pull to it. Because of the similar mechanics not only to the trigger but other aspects of this gun, it would make an awesome low cost trainer to be used when your real 1911 can not be.

Accuracy: I shot the KWC M1911 A1 Tac BB gun at a target from 20 feet away in a semi rested position, and it performed well getting a 2 inch grouping just a bit off center of the target. The sights are adjustable for windage so zeroing the KWC M1911 A1 Tac in would not be much of a problem! My initial Chrony testing puts this gun right in the 300-320 fps range which is just fine for this style of heavy full realistic blowback action BB shooter. I also managed to get three very good magazine worth of shots with some extra CO2 left for a potential 4th magazine. If you slow your shooting down and let the gun and CO2 warm up between magazines you can get 4 magazines with this gun for sure.

Build Quality: KWC did a great job with the KWC M1911 A1 Tac. The quality and build characteristics may even be just a bit better than my other KWC/Cybergun blowback air pistols. Everything that should be metal is the same on this as the original, the slide and barrel wiggle are minimal and the finish seems to be wearing fairly well on this KWC airgun. I do expect over time fore some of the finish to wear off on the high points but this can also give the gun some character.

Realism: The KWC M1911 A1 Tac BB airgun is as close as you can get to the real steel 1911 A1 45 auto but with an obvious more modern Tactical look to it, the Tactical version has the addition of a: Tac style trigger and hammer, textured grips, ambidextrous safety, adjustable white dot sights, rail for accessories. This gun is nearly all metal with very heavy blowback making it feel real to hold in the hand and shoot.

Pros:

  • All metal construction - Good weight and solid feeling gun
  • Nice heavy blowback action
  • Very Accurate 1911 A1 styled replica in many way
  • True 1911 Single action trigger, excellent pull, very smooth and light
  • Accurate trigger design and working grip safety
  • Decent accuracy, not too bad amount off shots for this style of gun, about 3+ good magazines.
  • All metal full size dropout magazine
  • Love the upgraded Tactical features (Tac style trigger and hammer, textured grips, ambidextrous safety, adjustable white dot sights, rail for accessories)

Cons:

  • Sacrifices FPS and shots per CO2 cartridge with the heavy blowback
  • Finish on the Cybergun and KWC guns can ware off on the high points a bit but some people like this look.

Comments: I love the Cybergun Tanfoglio Witness 1911 as do many of you based on the amount of sales we have had on that unit! After all who does not appreciate such an accurate replica of the Classic Colt 1911 A1 45 auto? The only problem with the classic 1911 is that it is missing a few of todays more modern features and that's what is so nice abut the new KWC M1911 A1 Tac BB Pistol, it takes an already great design and makes it even better by adding the Tac style trigger and hammer, textured grips, ambidextrous safety, adjustable white dot sights and rail for add on accessories. So if you're a 1911 fan looking for as close as you can get to the real steel in a more modern version than look no further, this is it!

Must have

It's been a while since I owned airguns. I'm catching my collection up and this was my first purchase on Replica Airguns. I reasearched this one a bit before buying and I'm more than happy with it. It's just a solid bb gun with all the checkmarks I look for. Metal where it would be on a real steel, no ugly warning writing, white dot adjustable sights, field strippability, working slide catch and release. Quality parts and machining, racking the slide and operating the gun in general feels and sounds really nice. It's accurate for a BB gun. A word of warning - do not remove the pin from the base of the grip that holds together the housing for the grip safety/hammer strut assembly. It may seem like its meant to be taken out for cleaning similar to a field strip, but the leaf spring will come out and unless you know exactly what youre doing, it will mess up your gun. The c02 actuator pin can slip off the spring in the hammer assembly and wont retract on its own, and there is no clear way to access the assembly. So other than field stripping, dont mess with your guns parts if you don't know what youre doing. I loved this gun so much, I bought a replacement right away. If you're considering this one, get it while you still can!

Excellent purchase

Any review should start with a review of the people that sell it. I am extremely pleased with everyone that I’ve interacted with at replica air guns. All my issues and questions were dealt with promptly and efficiently. It is a pleasure doing business with them. As for the gun it is amazing. Primary requirement for me is accuracy and realism and this is perfect on both counts. It is however one of those guns that you should read the instructions. At first I thought the safety was broken until I read that it only functioned when the trigger was pulled back. My only complaint is that with the blow back there is some scratching on the barrel. This is a minor annoyance but other than that this is an excellent gun for 1911 enthusiasts.

Great BB Replica for the Price

Received it couple of weeks ago. Amazing delivery time even during COVID19. Amazing feel in my hands in terms of weight and blowback action. Great quality all metal replica 1911 Tac. In line to purchase more from this store, such as the blank ROHM RG-88 . Thanks Michael for making it available.

Fun Toy

I have bought one of these before and I can say that it was and shall always be my fav. air gun. Recently, I ordered another one and it just arrived today but this time it’s a little different; first couple shots fired and the slide scratched the barrel abit which was pretty lame. All in all it is still a fun toy. The realistic field strip feature is awesome. I’ll be purchasing other air guns from this site.

Good gun, works well

This gun is good. When I got it, it had a bit of scratches on the paint but it works just fine. The pistol is easy to use and the weight feels very good. There is a nice heavy blowback to the gun, especially when using a brand new co2 cartridge. It is a decent price for this gun.

If you have been watching my Video Reviews you may have picked up on the fact that I am a bit of a 1911 fan! Perhaps it goes back to my Magnum PI day, I am sure I have watched every episode a bunch of times as a kid and growing up, Tom Selleck’s side arm of choice was the classic Colt 1911 A1 and I guess it brushed off on me. I just like the look and feel of the classic 1911! There have been a number of BB firing Airguns that have come out over the years so I thought I would go over a few of my favorite versions and talk a little bit about their history and cover a few different version most actually made by KWC based off of their original full blowback CO2 1911.

The KWC/Cybergun Model 1911 Blowback BB Pistols and Airsoft Pistols are very popular and so I tend to get lots of questions about them like: Are they the same quality? What version shoots the best? How do I remove the white warning lettering? Can I get one in an Airsoft version? Can I add a laser or tactical light? Can I change the grips...

I have talked about how KWC and Cybergun are really the same product and that Cybergun and KWC products in many cases are really the same gun but with some versions having slightly different markings on the guns themselves.

Here is my official Field Test Shooting Video Review for my KWC M1911 Model A1 TAC CO2 Blowback BB Pistol. Interestingly enough, this time around I got a bit lower average feet per second rating from this air gun at right around 290 fps as compared to the pre-test I did during my Table Top Review (shot closer to 310 average fps)? Both days the temperature was about the same and the CO2 used on both occasions was the same brand and where unused. Just goes to show you that these guns sometimes have a mind of their own...
