Hello, ASGI and future SOCOM Gear M1911 MEU owners!
...more>> /> I'm back with follow up review of this fantastic pistol. I've now had this pistol for nearly a month and nothing is going wrong... =) This is from sporadic use though and I baby my guns haha. I've put about 600 shots through this gun now:

The blowback action doesn't feel as crisp as before. The stock spring is a little weak and over time it will degrade in performance. This is no biggie. I bought a Guarder 150% Recoil spring and the blowback's nicer than before. The spring is only about 15 dollars and it comes with a new hammer spring as well. Definitely not a big setback.

Accuracy (after cleaning the pistol extensively) yielded me a very satisfying result of 9/10 head sized target hits from 50-60 feet away. The one flier was probably from my own error. Although this result is very satisfying, I've decided to remedy this by ordering a PDI 6.01mm tightbore and a nineball bucking. Hopefully, that will come in very soon. +)

The orange silencer adapter tip is removable. It is glued on clockwise so if you screw on the silencer and keep going, it WILL come off. Of course, this is illegal and I am not in any way saying you should... although it does look cooler... and you should only do it if you're at a exclusive airsoft sanctioned event... Just saying. =)

The paint on the metal comes off nicely (I like to sand down and polish parts of the gun... but that's just me... random info for those that like a custom look to their gun). But it won't come if you don't want it to haha.

The magazine that came with the gun, as well as the extra one that I ordered is still in nice working condition. I tested the magazines again, trying to see if I can make them last longer... and alas I did! If you let the magazines warm up for about... 1 or 2 minutes prior to shooting it, that will give you a much nicer result in terms of blowback and accuracy. After the magazine is emptied... you can reload the magazine... and again let the magazine sit for 1 or 2 minutes before shooting. I was able to shoot off 2 mags and spare change with this (holding the magazines with my hands and letting them sit and what not).

I am also implementing a new full length spring guide in this... the 150% Guarder spring is hard to put in with a half sized spring guide.

All in all, this is a very fine pistol, worthy of 165$ plus tax. Thanks again to ASGI, Socom Gear, and UPS for this fantastic pistol.

I'm out!

Pros:
Orange tip is removable.
Accuracy is very nice (stock).
(Rest from previous review)

Cons:
Blowback degrades after a little bit (just buy a cheap new spring).
