Frequently Asked Questions
An excellent quality-price ratio replica. The pistol uses electric power for projectile propulsion, significantly reducing operating costs. However, it is important to note the projectile speed, approximately 50-55 m/s with 0.20g BBs. The adjustable hop-up provides a great advantage in effective range, and let's not forget the Auto function.

Product Description
This replica manufactured by Cyma initially presents an authentic 1911 pistol, but upon first contact, we realize that something is not quite as expected. This is due to the fact that it is an electric-operated pistol. Instead of internal mechanisms and gas storage compartments, there is a miniature electric gearbox capable of propelling the BBs from the replica in both semi-automatic and automatic fire modes.
Exterior of the Replica
The exterior of the airsoft replica is made from quality ABS plastic and metal for the slide. To select the firing mode, we will use the fire selector represented by the hammer safety. Of course, this safety no longer serves as any kind of safety in our case. The two positions of the selector are: auto and semi-auto. The slide of the replica does not move in any way; it is actually a cover. To remove it, the button that normally acts as the slide catch must be pressed. The safety of the pistol is similar to that of the real 1911. Behind the grip, there is a lever that, if not pressed, will prevent the pistol from being operated. The pistol's magazine is small and slim, totally unrealistic, but with a great advantage: it can hold 30 6mm BBs. The 100-round magazine designed for it is perfectly compatible with the Cyma 1911 AEP.
Great attention. This AEP model is considerably wider than the real firearm and gas-operated replicas. Rigid holsters for the pistol will not accommodate this pistol. It is recommended to use a universal or adjustable holster.
Interior of the Replica
Once the slide is removed, we will see space for the battery and the mechanism for easy installation/removal of the battery, as well as the hop-up adjustment. The airsoft replica is equipped with an adjustable hop-up system, thus increasing the effective range despite the low speed of 50-55m/s measured with 0.20g BBs. Of course, it is recommended to use 0.20g BBs for optimal performance.
Power Supply
The airsoft replica package includes a 7.2V 450 mAh Ni-MH battery as well as a charger for it. It is recommended to use only quality batteries designed for AEP-type replicas.
