Colt 1911 Special Combat BB Pistol

Seems to be very accurate I’d like it

Pros
None

Cons
None

hi today i just started with my first co2 air pistol .i wanted to start big and go bigger with nicer and nicer looking modles i found a lot of nice ones on here i think once my order gets in ill write my first real review

Handles like the real 1911....weight and appearance. Great for practicing shooting techniques and improving “iron sight” aiming techniques.....while not spending a lot of money on ammunition or range facilities.

Pros
Price, quality, performance

Ordering was simple and quick shipping. The pistol is Great!! Makes a very nice addition to my 1911 collection.

Pros
Well made with a great finish.

Cons
None

Once again the dummies at Umarex screwed up. This is a single/double action BB pistol. No blowback, so the accuracy should be good, except that Umarex chose to cut cost and put plain crap sights on this gun. A crisp White Dot Sight System would sky-rocket the sale of this BB gun, but instead we get garbage. Thanks Umarex, you dummies.

Pros
single/double action

Cons
sights are junk

This is a great gun!! It is very frugal on CO2 and shoots in the low 400's FPS. This has fully adjustable rear sights. This is both single and double action. The single action trigger pull is under 5 lbs. and very smooth. This also has very good accuracy for a BB pistol. I made some custom grips for this out of ASH (See Photo). Standard 1911 grips do not fit this model. I shot both the Daisy Premium 5.1 gr as well as the Dust Devil 4.35 gr. through the colt and they were very close in performance.

Pros
The trigger, the weight, the looks and the fact you get 100 rounds plus on a single CO2 cartridge. Also keep in mind they do not make this model anymore, when they are gone, they are gone! Buy one while you can!!

Cons
NO...I am not going to say that the non BLOW-BACK is a con. This gun has higher velocity and many more shots per CO2. So embrace the style and model!

Excellent Replica! Great for Recreation and Plinking!

best one for the money.

this is very accurate and looks good.

Pros
great price and nice shooter

Cons
wish it was single and double action

After shooting the Tanfoglio Legend and Gold Custom this Colt was a bit of a disappointment to me. Make no mistake, this is still a fine replica pistol. It sure is a looker. It fits well in my hand and is reasonably accurate using Daisy Premiums. The trigger is not good compared to other guns I have, but still is acceptable. I'm not sure if there is something wrong with the one I have, but this gun is NOT capable of shooting single action. When I rack it, the hammer goes back, but when I pull the trigger nothing happens.... but, then the hammer fires when the trigger goes FORWARD! Whoa, not good at all. The safety on the gun is not the issue; being safe is the issue. It is a double action pistol, period. And the DA is OK, not great. Like I said, it's a nice looking gun, but will be more of a keeper for it's looks than for it's shooting ability. I recommend it if you are in love with 1911 guns and don't care too much about how much of a shooter it is.

Pros
Looks, it's really pretty. The satin silver finish and engraving is very nice. Grips are good for plastic. Sights are OK as well as the trigger. Not great, but OK.

Cons
Loading BBs is difficult. Tab needs to be larger. It's a fingernail breaker, or will be scratched easily using a screwdriver to get it into place. Spare clips should be made available. It's not as accurate as several of my other guns that cost less, including my PX4 and Dan Wesson replicas, and my Crosman 2240s. Seams show on the hammer and other parts. For $100 I think you best be in love with the way this looks, sort of like that trophy girlfriend that can't cook.
