2021-10-20

Thanks to Toy Gun Expo for providing sample support for this evaluation of the wells 1911 Co2 gel blaster.

After a long year of waiting, we finally ushered in the third green gas blowback gel ball blaster M1-1911 officially sold by Well Tech manufacturer.

The M1-1911 is made by Para-Ordnance P14-45, which is a series of double row M1911 semi-automatic pistols developed, produced and sold by Canadian gun manufacturer Para-Ordnance in the late 1980s. It's also the first M1911 derivative product ever to use a large-capacity double-row magazine, firing .45 ACP caliber pistol bullets.

The image below is the real p14-45 pistol:

After unboxing the package, a red slide M1 appeared in front of you. The manufacturer released a total of three colors: gray, blue, and red. Fortunately, we got the notorious red. The box contains a manual and a product inspection certificate. , A speed loader, a bottle of 134A refrigerant gas, and today’s protagonist: well 1911 gbb.

The well colt 1911 Appearance VS kublai P1:

well 1911 height: 145mm

From the picture, it is not difficult to notice that the well 1911 is slightly larger than Kublai P1. During the test, I felt that this blaster is suitable for people with larger hands, because I played a lot of Kublai gel blaster. After P1, I will find that the hold open release button of this blaster is slightly forward, which makes me mistakenly think that the insurance is the hold open release button (in this case, it is operated by one hand)
