Product Information:
Alright, I've had this pistol close to 5 months now, and its performance hasn't really decreased. I personally haven't chrono'd this pistol, however I believe every bit of the talks I hear of it being close t0 360 (Like I see in an earlier review) The size of this pistol is obviously scaled after a Mk.23 Socom (Most people might know from Metal Gear Solid) and is a rather large pistol, however its comfortable. The slide and the frame are both high grade plastic, however the internals don't seem to be as sturdy. The slide also does move so you can manually set a BB into the chamber. Contrary to a previous review, I've actually found this pistol to have great range and accuracy, with both .20g (Used crossman from Walmart....only out of a desperate act of quickly needing Ammo) and then used G&G Precision .25g. Obviously the precision .25g's had better accuracy, but either one was alright to use. Without the Silencer, the gun had a very distinct Pop when fired, that the Silencer (With a barrel inside it too by the way, which does help out a little, however if mis-threaded onto the pistol, can cause the BB to stray) can help to quiet down, infact sometimes I can only hear the clicking of the pistol's internals and a very small sound of the gas's release. The magazines are metal, however the top that holds the BB into place is plastic, and actually broke on mine after about 3 fights (2 months I owned at this point) I had a spare, but even that looks like It will wear soon. I've heard this can use Marui Mk.23 mags, which if this is the case, it'd definitely be worth it, however I'm not 100% sure on this. If your just a beginner, this pistol isn't too bad to start with.

Pros:
-Silencer muffles the distinct Popping sound of gas release, and the inner barrel helps with range and accuracy
-Comfortable
-Sturdy Body

Cons:
-Too much orange, definitely can be a dead give-away.
-Magazine plastic breaks easily
-Internals seem rather cheap
-Be careful of hand placement, if you shoot with a hand on the bottom of the grip for support, the gun will not catch the gas release and will not fire.
