Sports reviews of UTG Airsoft UHC 1911 Pistol
Customer Review: Amateur Owner
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
This gun feels and looks great and it was a part of my Halloween Costume (Big Boss in a Tuxedo from Metal Gear Solid 3). Of course I didn't know how to use it or anything because this is my first gun, but after hours of research, I've learned how to take it apart, do some maintenance, and properly use it. For a few minutes, I've been shooting empty soda cans (from 5 to 8 feet away) with the plastic BBs that came with the gun (100 BBs) and none of them penetrated the can. The bullets did ricochet ALL OVER my garage, so look out. And you might want to be careful where you shoot and what you're aiming at, because you can clearly see the BBs as they travel to their destination, meaning if they go somewhere unintentionally, people will know where to direct the police to. And again, I can't say anything about how it shoots because this is the first one I've ever owned, but the BBs usually tend to go a little bit higher than where I aim it. I dunno, maybe it's the wind or the way it spins or I really suck.
The box come with only the gun, some VERY useless instructions, and 100 BBs. It's easy to disassemble, just push the pin from the right and pull out from the left and the top slide comes right off making jams and maintenance very easy to deal with. I used some mineral oil (Not Included) to lubricate some parts that some websites recommended. When you're done, slide it back on and push the pin right back to it's original position and pull the slide all the way back. Push the round button on the left side of the gun near the trigger to release the magazine. It should just fall right out since it's weighted and that's a plus. The magazine holds a total of 22 BBs, although it's best to put in less so that you don't wear out the spring in it. One thing that took me a while to figure out was that you put the BBs in the FRONT of the magazine, where the round hole is (duh). When you're done, just push it back in and start shooting. Another awesome feature is the double safety locking mechanism where you have the switch on the side and the grip safety right under the hammer, so you have to squeeze the back of the gun in order to pull the trigger. The one thing I find annoying about that is that the grip safety is always pressed if you use a holster (I have the Crosman Airsoft Holster), which shouldn't be a a problem since you have the other safety and nothing is touching the trigger.
Other than that, you have a nice gun, in looks and basic function, for a very reasonable price. Again, this is my first gun and probably my last since I don't like collecting weapons, although I'm kind of looking forward to getting a revolver or two for another costume.
