We or KWA 1911

[DMAN007]

So I'm going to be buying a 1911 in the next few weeks and am stuck between the We and KWA models. The WE includes an extra mag while the KWA only includes 1 mag and costs $60 extra. Is the perfomance of the KWA good enough to outweigh the fact that it has only 1 mag and costs an extra $60? Also if I buy the WE, I can get 3 extra mags and it'll still cost less than the KWA

I would say it looks like the WE is the better choice due to cost. The reliability of WE comes into question time and again though, however most GBBs will give you a rough time at one point in time or another anyways. I have only had a WE luger, and it was problematic, but alot of that had to do with the lugers operating system.

I my self am trying to decide between a WE or KJW govt. model 1911, im leaning more towards the KJW just because its a little cheaper. Which ever model your looking at though seems to be a steal with all the extra mags.

I have had personal experience with a WE 1911 CQB Master and a KWA KP45 Match. Both were great and performed well. After a while the slide lock on the WE wore out and the slide would no longer lock back when all ammo was spent. The KWA had a screw on the slide come loose and locked the slide back. Just had to re-tighten and it was good. 1 of 2 of the WE mags leaked on occasion. 0 of 3 of the KWA mags leaked, EVER! The KWA seemed to be more efficient on the gas too. I have also used KWA aegs with great experience and am a firm believer in KWA. If you don't mind dropping the extra money on KWA, I would say go for the KWA.
