I purchased 1911 about a year ago and have been very satisfied with it essentially in every aspect. But if it's a high quality pellet gun that you're looking for, this UMAREX COLT GOVERNMENT 1911 A1 is certainly one of them.Ī must-have gun for any serious collection Surprisingly no reviews so far on this beautiful piece of hardware.

You could get yourself a Umarex (KWC made) Colt Commander AND a KWC 92FS for the same price, and you'd probably have twice the fun (that 92FS has a full auto mode). Moreover, it's more faithful to a real 1911 than this Umarex Colt Government 1911 A1, if somewhat less powerful and precise being a BB gun instead of a pellet gun. 177 BB airgun better, for less than half the price. As for the overall fun and enjoyment, I've found that I prefer my Umarex Colt Commander blowback. Yes, it's German quality workmanship, but you pay for it. The fact that it's non-blowback makes it last a lot longer on a single CO2 cartridge, though not quite as much fun perhaps.įinally, the price tag is on the high side for what it offers. The double-action is quite stiff, better use the single action which is silky smooth for any precision shooting. It also says A1 on it but it's not faithful to the 1911 A1, since the back of the grip is flat. It's slightly wider than the real thing and the slide looks fake (especially viewed from the top), since it's a non-blowback model. No clamshell packaging crap here.Īs for being true to a real 1911, well, it falls short a bit. It's also quite precise, and I didn't need to adjust the back aim straight out of the box. I like the fact that it's powerful, it's all-metal construction (with rubberized grip), has grip safety operational, feels solid and heavy. Despite not have a working blowback design or drop out magazine, this is a top notch airgun that succeeds in shooting and enjoying for years to come. This well-made airgun has been around since the late 90's and even today it still holds its own. You can really tell this is a quality gun from how smoothly it operates and the confidence it gives you even when just holding it in your hands.

It's made in Germany, what more do I need to say? The only plastic parts are the grips which almost feel like a mix between rubber and plastic. My Chrony testing with an eight shot had an average result of 383 FPS.īuild Quality: This is an almost all metal air gun with a great fit and finish and a nice hefty 2.5 pound weight to it. The sights can be adjusted for windage if you are shooting a tad bit to the left or right. I got about a one inch grouping just a little bit high of the target's center.

The single action has the lightest pull, making it a joy to shoot at targets.Īccuracy: I shot this air gun at a target from 20 feet away in a free standing position, and it performed excellent. Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Umarex Colt Government 1911 A1 is extremely nice in both single and double action mode. Materials: Mostly metal with plastic gripsĪction: Semi auto, single and double action
