I do expect over time for some of the finish to wear off on the high points but this can also give the gun some character. 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. The quality and build characteristics may even be just a bit better than my other KWC/Cybergun blowback air pistols. It is kind of hard to say what kind of grouping I can actually get using this pistol as it stands, but from shooting similar versions of this pistol I should be able to get at least 2 inch groupings once it is set up right and using ammo that works well with it.īuild Quality: KWC did a great job with the Cybergun KWC Colt M1911 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol. Either the adjustable BAXS Hop-up was way off or the airsoft ammo I was using did not agree with this 1911 pistol. For my remaining 8 shots I lowered my aim to the lowest ring to see if I could get some shots on paper and even with this rather deliberate sight adjustment I was still hitting really high on the target, some shots still even off the paper and hitting metal. My first shot curved well above my target and my second shot just clipped the metal portion. Of course the results are always dependant on how I'm shooting on the day of my testing, after all I am only human! I shot my usual 10 rounds through the Cybergun KWC Colt M1911 A1 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol but for some reason this 1911 airsoft replica liked to shoot on the high side. This shooting position serves to provide a nice stable shooting platform for overall accuracy. 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.Īccuracy: For my accuracy target test I set up 30 feet back shooting from a semi-rested position (sand bag up front and standing in the back). It has a short take up and then a nice light and crisp pull to it. Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Cybergun KWC Colt M1911 A1 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol is exactly what you would expect from a true single action 1911 styled pistol.

I don’t think this hammer was ever used and would be a perfect replacement original part.Action: Semi-automatic with blowback, single action onlyĪmmo Capacity: 17-round full size metal magazine Im pretty sure these hammers where originally parkerized a blackish color and this hammer appears to have a dark blued finish to me. Look at all of the photos carefully! The original wrapping is not included although I will apply a new layer of grease to the hammer to prevent rust and package it up to ship properly. This hammer has not been used since it was blued because all the finish is intact where the sear would ride against the hammer, the sides of the hammer that would be captured by the frame have no wear either, I would expect those areas to be in the white or shiny metal showing after use. Other then that the hammer is in great working order, all the engagement surfaces for the sear look great. I picked it up for a spare and it’s been wrapped in grease, I don’t think I’m going to need this so time to pass it on. This hammer has been re-finished at some point, it currently has a blued finish that is in pretty decent shape although there is a little rust forming under the bluing on the right side (as seen in the photos) so I feel that the bluing was done awhile ago. This hammer is the real deal, you can see the small indent on the side of the hammer from a Rockwell hardness test as well as the wartime machining work. It is an authentic Colt hammer and not a repro, look at the pictures! Notice there is no large dimples like you see in modern metal Injection molded reproductions.

Remington-Rand used an identical narrow hammer as well throughout the conflict so this hammer could work for a R.R. I believe these hammers where used around late ‘44 or early 1945 and would be the correct hammer for a late war Colt A1.
