Is the silver gas COLT.45 a good reliable gas pistol?

Could you be any less specific? A link, manufacturer, picture....anything to let us know what exact gun you're talking about would help quite a bit.

oooh, the silver one, how did you find one, I almost had my hands on a grey one, but silver that would be somethin..........wait your'e not talkin about the greyish silver one, cuz there about as good as the black ones just that they dont have that thing like the silver one does, unless of course it was made by that other company, then it would have it..... sorry I couldn't resist.....no offense joker who makes it, what model #, GBB, NBB, etc....?

I don't think that there's enough sarcasm on this board. I'm going to assume that it's not a WA, bacause why even ask then right? But there's stil a lot of other ones, so narrow it down just a wee bit, please.

Also I know I may being pretty specififc, but 45. is the caliber shell it fires, the gun you are most likley refering to is a type of 1911. Thats just like calling the MK23 a 45. Correct me if I'm wrong...

...and the fact that it's a Colt, therefore *probably* referring to the Colt Government/1911 series of handguns.
I searched Shortyusa.com, dealer of cheap guns, and the text wasn't in uppercase like that. I'm guessing Joker just copy and pasted "SILVER GAS POWERED COLT .45" from some cheap-o website (hence the capitalized text), so...anybody have some ideas?

Ooh! It comes with a free sample of maple syrup! ;D
For $20 I doubt it's anything special, and it's a non-blowback too, which is good or bad depending on how you look at it. Good, because it will use less gas and probably get lots of shots per fill, but bad if you want something that acts realistic and bucks around in your hand when firing. It probably has a pretty heavy and aim-killing trigger pull.... but I doubt it would be accurate enough to notice anyway. Hell, for 20 bucks it would probably be good enough for a backup, just don't expect miracles from the thing.
Always remember, in airsoft you pretty much get what you pay for, unless you're an ebay whore like me and get more than what you pay for by finding good deals ;D

Ok, here is the deal on that handgun... I have seven of them, well, the black ones, but they are the same gun.
They are most definately a non-blowback. They hit fairly hard, can EASILY tag center mass on a man sized target at 20 to 25 feet. Shoot rapidly, have a decent trigger for a toy... etc..
In my opinion, well worth the 20 bucks. Are they as groovy as an Infinity??? Nope, no way, but will do the same damned job inside 25 feet.
Hope this helps.

Shooting the bull, it's an old expression, I have nothing else to say.
Bull...as in...bullshit. Hehehe.
Or, shooting the crap, maybe?
