I'm a pretty avid airsoft player I prefer metal blow back pistols, but this was highly suggested pistol by a team mate. I like the FPS, weight, tons of metal components, and grip on the pistol. It's easy to disassemble and maintain. Although I highly recommend lubricating the CO2 cartridges prior to install. These plastic rings in the mag have a tendency to crack due to cold gas being expelled. Lubricating is important! Unlike the manual says, there is NO hop-up adjustment. Therefor,I recommend it for close combat.
