Yeet Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Im thinking of buying an airsoft pistol for mostly target shooting but some games (since im under the legal age at most places in my country). I have looked at the ssp1 and the elite force 1911 tac. Do you recomend these or any else and is this a good use for them? Really greatful for any help.

Asomodai Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 The SSP is terribly unreliable and the only reason people get it is because of the name attached to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Druid799 Posted February 26, 2019 Supporters Share Posted February 26, 2019 Would help if you told us where you actually live as you said ‘since im under the legal age at most places in my country’ and it could have an effect on what we’d recommend .

Yeet Posted February 27, 2019 Author Share Posted February 27, 2019 I live in sweden where the law is that you cant use an airsoft gun without adult supervision, and after my research theres a site about Three hours of driving away which allows people under the age of 18. I would use the gun at home under supervision so that wouldnt be a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emilianoksa Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 If you want it for target practice I would recommend a Tokyo Marui Hicapa 5.1 or Gold Match. Both plastic and expensive but worth it. https://www.onlyairsoft.com/product/tokyo-marui-hi-capa-5-1/ https://www.popularairsoft.com/news/marui-hi-capa-51-gold-match-wgc-shop If you must have metal the Armorer Works Hicapas at about the same price look nice, are pretty accurate and come in many different finishes and configurations.. https://www.evike.com/products/64313/ Stay away from the Elite Force 1911. If you like the SSP1 , save yourself a bit of money and get the KJW K05 instead. Looks better and has a good reputation. https://www.evike.com/products/29580/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Rogerborg Posted February 27, 2019 Supporters Share Posted February 27, 2019 Do you want the haptic experience of a gas blowback, or do you want to pay much less to get better performance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yeet Posted March 4, 2019 Author Share Posted March 4, 2019 Its looking towards the KWC Colt 1911 Stainless CO2. Is it good? One benefit for me is that its at an store near me so i dont have to order online. Right now its selling for 1300 sek (about 105 pounds). Do you think i should buy it?

emilianoksa Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Personally I would avoid KWC guns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emilianoksa Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 I can't comment further as I have never owned one, but there are plenty of opinions on the web from those who have/do. Some like them and some hate them. Take the time to do some research and then decide whether you want to go ahead. It is said that, unlike KJW and WE versions, they are not copies of Tokyo Marui 1911s, and that parts for them are proprietary and very difficult to find. mpatable with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yeet Posted March 8, 2019 Author Share Posted March 8, 2019 Im buying from a local store and therefore theres a limited availability. Heres a link to their site so if anyone wants to recommend something from there i would be greatful. It is sadly in Swedish but the pistols names should stay the same as internationally.http://www.rodastjarnan.com/airsoft/vapen-pistoler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emilianoksa Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 In my opinion, there are a lot of better alternatives on that website. The ASG P09 has had very good reviews. However beware: there are two versions - one with all polymer externals and the more expensive one with polymer lower and metal slide. The latter version is very popular and will take both green gas and CO2. The all plastic one won't. The P09 will probably come with a green gas magazine and you will have to buy a separate CO2 mag if you want that. Recoil and velocity with CO2 will be impressive, but bear in mind that the higher pressure of this gas will put the internals of the gun under greater strain and wear things out faster. The P09 is made by KJW incidentally. Then there are some KJW own brand all metal guns, and I believe some of the ASG Colts and Berettas are made by KJW too. You will need to do some research. Most KJW all metal guns will take both green gas and CO2. Both types of magazines are available. I would not advise you to get WE because, although their guns are better than KWC in my opinion, you have stated that you want a CO2 gun because of the low Swedish temperature. Not all WE pistols are CO2 compatible, and even for the ones that are, availability of mags is sometimes poor. Perhaps somebody else (a more experienced member than me) on the forum could chime in and give their two cents' worth. There are plenty of pistols on the site and the lad is looking for advice. What would the rest of you suggest?. I would certainly consider the following, but go to the shop, ask questions and get the feel of them. http://www.rodastjarnan.com/airsoft/kjw-asg-gbb-m9-heavy-weight-18036 http://www.rodastjarnan.com/airsoft/kjw-asg-gbb-m9-ia-heavy-weight-17947 http://www.rodastjarnan.com/airsoft/secutor-rudis-1911-svart-gbb/co2-37721 http://www.rodastjarnan.com/airsoft/secutor-rudis-ii-1911-svart-gbb/co2-37727 I believe the Rudis 1911s are made by WE but they are CO2. I think the this is a KJW built gun, and the black one of similar price. http://www.rodastjarnan.com/airsoft/asg-dan-wesson-valor-co2-gbb-36385 But don't take my word for anything. I am not an expert. Research, and then go and look at a couple in the shop if you can. Avoid anything by APS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emilianoksa Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Correction: the Secutor Rudis is in fact a KJW, not as I previously stated a WE. Spoiler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yeet Posted March 10, 2019 Author Share Posted March 10, 2019 Another question is if it will break, shatter or in any other way mess up windows. I dont Think the pistol should do it but my parents keep asking. Anyone know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont Think the pistol should do it but my parents keep asking. Anyone know? Just don't do it. Do some research about shooting safely and follow the rules. Then it won't happen. A bbs will certainly go through ordinary glass if shot directly at it, but so will any other projectile from a gun. Shoot into a big box (remember big) with some old clothes in it and you will be OK. Learn basic safety rules, like keeping your finger off the trigger until you have acquired your target, don't jerk the trigger, and never point the gun at anything unless you are prepared to pull the trigger. Even if it is unloaded. Acquire good habits. Always keep the front sight in focus. If they ricochet I doubt airsoft bbs have enough energy left to do serious damage to things. Keep away from windows anyway. If you are really worried shoot outside or in a garage. Plastic bbs are a lot safer than than airgun 4.5 mm steel bbs or lead pellets.

Yeet Posted March 10, 2019 Author Share Posted March 10, 2019 I understand the basic safety rules of handeling the gun and so does they, but they are afraid that it will riccochet of the wall and bounce up and damage a window and personally i think thats highly unlikely.
