WE Hi-Capa 5.1 Dragon

Brief History

Developed by STI International in 2011, this pistol aims to provide the public with a modern version of the classic 1911. Among the advantages of the new model are; an increased magazine capacity, the caliber of the pistol reduced from 0.45 ACP (11.5mm) to 9mm, reduced recoil, and due to modern materials, a lighter weight. This model is successfully used by law enforcement as well as by the public for personal protection.

Exterior of the Replica

This pistol replica named Dragon, manufactured by WE, is built around the hi-capa platform and is made from metal and ABS plastic. The slide and frame are made of metal while the grip is made of ABS plastic. The design of this pistol is quite modular compared to other platforms on the market.

At the bottom, the airsoft replica is equipped with a 22 mm rail that can support a wide variety of accessories such as flashlights, lasers, and other tactical devices.

Interior of the Replica

The internal components are quite similar to those of the 1911 but unfortunately do not fit exactly. Therefore, we recommend using components specifically manufactured for the hi-capa model. This replica is equipped with an adjustable Hop-Up system, accessible by disassembling the slide (the upper receiver). The adjustment is precise and the final position remains fixed. The BB speed is approximately 85-90 meters per second using 0.20g BBs. We recommend using quality BBs weighing 0.20g for optimal performance.

Power Source

The airsoft replica operates optimally with green gas. Under optimal temperature and operating conditions, the replica is capable of cycling the entire magazine with a gas fill. We recommend using only high-quality BBs and not reusing BBs or using low-quality BBs as this may cause the replica to malfunction.
