Decide for your self.

Keep in mind the temperature difference when he did the fps tests for each gun. Personally, since neither gun has any external moving parts; I'd go with the more realistic metal one, however the plastic tanfoglio has a much lighter trigger pull.

I've shot both, to be honest the tanfoglio m1911 was pretty much garbage, it was basically all plastic and felt extremely cheap and felt like it could break so easy, The Firepower m84 is one of the best all metal bb pistols ive shot, very well made. Go for the M84, you wont regret it!

BTW if you look at pictures of the 1911 it looks alright, but once you see it in person you will see its pretty ugly

I've been making payments @ my local Army Surplus store on a KWC Jericho. All metal construction, heavy little bastard though for an air pistol. The only operational parts externally are the safety, slide doesn't move, but the hammer cocks and releases when you pull the trigger, so it's pretty much a DAO CO2 pistol. I'm still torn between the Jericho and the Sig 1911 they have as well.@.@ decisions decisions @.@

Same site as listed above has a review on them @.@ dood, Jericho has a 12lb trigger pull O.O ouch

If you want a blow back bb gun, you can always get the Walther PPK, Its cheap and a blast to shoot, not very accurate tho, but perfect for just plinking. cost is around $60-80, you see many bad reviews about them but I can honestly say I have never had a problem with mine

Depends on if they changed their design, the old ppk's were inherently flawed and jammed after almost exactly 500 shots. The only way I found to fix it was by sanding the valve down slightly to have a looser seal around the slide. Liquid co2 would leak out the back with each shot, but it worked... somewhat.

But god damn was it fun, it's the most fun I've had with any airgun, ever.

I've shot 1 bottles of the RWS Steel BBs (5000count) and almost done a second bottle, and I can honestly say I havent had a single jam, ive only had a worn out mag, but replacement ones are cheap $15 bucks for 3. so maybe they did change their design I dont know. but I was told when I bought it to only shoot steel BBs in it and not the copperhead coated BBs cause that will cause it to jam.
