Old Dog Learning New Tricks: 1911 Practice Gun

Post by doc540 »

I bought Steve Anderson's book on dry fire practice and learned the big time champs like Manny Bragg and Brian Enos use airsoft guns for practice!

I'm so old I didn't even know what an airsoft gun was.

Now I own one.

Blowback recoil, 300fps, functions like my Commander

And I'm already having fun like a kid. :cool:

How's the trigger? The few I've tried have been in the toy category instead of accurate replicas, and they had triggers like most pellet guns: awful.
