The German company Umarex presents one of the most realistic replicas ever, called the Colt 1911 Classic.
The full metal construction is finished with black anodising and the textured grip panels are made of genuine walnut wood.
With its semi-automatic operation and Blowback system (recoil imitation thanks to the moving slide), this replica offers a perfect shooting experience. This is further enhanced by the 17-shot magazine, which holds a single 12 g CO2 cartridge.
Accidental discharge is prevented by two safeties, just as we are used to on any other pistol based on the 1911 design. One is on the left side of the frame, the other is integrated into the grip.
To preserve authenticity, the manufacturer decided to keep fixed sights without adjustment.
