Pistol recommendations

[TheFull9]

Nothing wrong with the extra gas idea of course, but for less than a refillable tank you can buy another mag.  It's just options; you either carry extra mag(s) or a speed loader and tank and refill in a lull, or simply reload the gun.  More total shots with the latter but much slower and more stuff to carry - fewer shots with the former but less bulk/weight and faster.

I'm a big TM 1911 guy, the Marui 1911A1 was my first pistol and I've picked up more variants over the years.  Wearing small-med gloves they work for me, but I only load in the region of 10-20 BBs (weather dependent) and don't generally plan/expect to rapidly fire off a whole mag tbh.  Which should be fine, as unless you're doing pistol primary for fun that scenario pretty much isn't going to come up.  I've always found the accuracy really made up for the capacity.

I'll echo this. The TM 1911 does have its issues with the small magazines, but it's really not that bad. During the summer, mine easily rattles through an entire mag, but won't do much more. During winter, I tend to use something else though because I run a bolt action or DMR like 99% of the time, and my local site has a lot of quite close-up parts so I tend to use my pistol a hell of a lot because MEDs are a thing (I often refer to Worthing Airsoft as woodland CQB)

I'd say the 1911 is the least suitable for actual games due to the mags reduced gas and BB capacity.
