Product Information:
This is a great gun. It's a blast to shoot, the blow back action is amazing, and it feels great. However, there are a few things that I was confused about with this gun, and my research didn't tell me a lot about this gun. First, when the last bb leaves the barrel, the slide locks back. You can't pull back the slide to release it, you have to flick the slide release. Second, my gun came already built to accept the double stack magazine, and the magazine it comes with is double stack. It holds 21 bbs. I read that it fit 15 in a single stack magazine, but I'm okay with it.
I run this with propane and .25 bbs, and it shoots really hard and accurate. I love this gun! KWA is a great brand. I'm hoping to get their GBB M4 PTR sometime soon, mostly because I've fallen in love with this gun. Buy it, you won't be disappointed.

Pros:
It comes with a small bottle of silicon oil.
It comes with a wrench to adjust the hop up
You can release the hammer with your thumb, and the gun doesn't shoot. However, it stays locked back like a millimeter. If it gets knocked forward, all the gas gets released from the magazine. This happened to me when I buttoned my holster.
Full metal except the barrel, but you can get a replacement barrel, which I plan to do.
You can shoot it pretty fast, about as fast as you can pull the trigger, but it's really accurate once you've adjusted the hop up, so you don't really need to.
Seriously, this is fun to shoot. It has a strong recoil, but not enough to throw off your aim, so you can put a lot of bbs down range, and feel awesome while you do it.

Cons:
It comes with big white letters on the side, just like the picture, which is kinda a bummer, but not that big of a deal.
Sometimes, the part of the gun that chambers the bb gets locked forward. I just dropped some silicon oil into it and it started working fine again.
My mag has started leaking. I think this was my fault though. I'm new to airsoft, and I think I was overfilling it. It's a bummer, but I'll just order a new mag from ASGI. (If you know how to take care of magazines well, or fix my problem, please put a comment about it. That'd help a lot.)
I only usually get 1 and a half magazines off of one fill. I've only gotten 2 magazines once. The description's a little deceiving.
It's a little back heavy. It feels fantastic, but I wouldn't mind a little heavier of a slide. Not really a con, but oh well.
