Tokyo Marui Colt 1911 MkIV Series 70 Review [Airsoft]

Sorry for such a long video, guess I just had a lot to cover here. TM made a pretty good step forward here with a very nicely made 1911. The brushed blued steel finish and machine marks really put it up there with Tanaka and WAs special finish guns, even though it's less convincing once you pick it up. Fake wood is also probably the best in the business, and being a TM it shoots very well, the only real drawbacks being the thin magazines (only 26 BBs worth of gas, at best) and rather sluggish recoil/slide return, although these issues are true of most airsoft 1911s, so it can't be blamed on this particular model. Overall, very nice - they are very durable, so Green Gas is recommended. I use Guarder Gas for extra snap/kick, and TM 1911s can handle it fine, so forget the 'TMs can only take 134a/Duster' comments you see, because these will take whatever you put in them. This can make TM 1911s quite powerful pistols, at least for standard TMs - 350 FPS is achievable with Guarder Gas on a warm day, due to the long-ish barrel.
