KWA is a good brand, I don't think you'll be disappointed. I have not shot that particular model but the other GBB pistols of theirs I've shot are awesome. I own the 1911 MKII, its sweet...

I've heard from multiple people that the USP was the best GBB pistol that KWA ever made, but I've not used it myself.

Well in my personal experience if your going to go with kwa, dot use propane, always destroys the cylinder or does something of the sort.

Hmmm, thats funny. Green gas is flammable too, just tested it ; ). Its very very flammable, especially for being under high pressure.

I do believe that green Gas and Propane are the same basic gas with odors and silicone lube added...

I personally like/use the z Softair Licensed CO2 SIGMA Airsoft Blowback. Only issue I had was the orange tip coming off, otherwise works like a charm. Very accurate. Very powerful too. O.o

I use propane in my gas guns. My KWA Mp9 takes it just fine. Only things you really need to worry about it is, do not use in plastic slide guns, Lube your guns/gas, and clean your guns which you should do anyways after you play.

The KWA HK45 just came out and it looks sick. You really can't go wrong with KWA's quality and performance, and its another H&K design. I had a KWA 1911 MkII and now have a KWA ATP and both are awesome. Shoot hard, awesome quality materials, and never had a problem with either. Now if I can just get my mind off of that HK45...

No.  Just no.

To the OP, I've got both a USP Tactical and a Compact.  Fantastic guns.  I'm selling the Tactical if you are interested.
