If you mod them they will be fine. For example you can tape the o-ring to get more shots, and tape the inner barrel against the hopup so it will be more accurate. I know the TM 1911 is better but I preferred the 1911 tactical, so I now have a WE 1911 tactical. BUT if TM would have made a 1911 tactical, MEU, kimber etc I would buy TM in a heartbeat.
