trdsupragt Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 Wow, great review. I might pick up one of these once they come over here in the US. Then I'll try interchanging parts with my TM Full Metal 226. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blam360 Posted March 18, 2006 Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 wheres the safety on it? i can't find it on mine... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
[VT]Mofo2000 Posted March 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 (edited) On the realsteel, I believe there is no real safety. But on the airsoft version, you press in the slide locking lever (not turning it down) on the right side. Besure to recheck your manual. Besides, the real safety is your index finger.

Soloman Posted March 18, 2006 Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 I love mine, i got it yesterday  Need...Spare mag... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wolfy Posted March 18, 2006 Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 Ok bit confused and hope you can clear something up. Redwolf claim that there is no hop up on either this or the non trade version but it appears the one you have does. I even tried e-mailing Redwolf and they insist there is no hop up.

Soloman Posted March 18, 2006 Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 There is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Soloman Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 That sort of dissusion is not allowed on this forum, as per the rules.  I have found my Sig after skirmishing it, quite a gas wh*re  It likes venting a bit too. Seems this is quite the summer peice. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
al3x Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 can some1 post a video of the kjw sig 226 in action? thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
carpandean Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 Wolfy, you should ask Redwolf why KJ has a diagram about the effects of hopup (see picture in beginning of thread) if it doesn't have one  1647, if you go to G&P's main page and click on Distributive Products, you get this page that lists several of the main GBB manufacturers. I think that they are a distributor for these manufacturers. Doesn't mean that they did not make the body, but ... Also, the G&P kit does not have the anchor. Again, not conclusive, but ...  VTMofo, great review! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
[VT]Mofo2000 Posted April 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 I think only redwolf sells the anchor version. So far I haven't seen any other HK retailers having this kind, maybe RW marked it themselves. Â Al3x, I'll try to get a video of the gun in action, but I need a place to post the file online. Where can I post it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
[VT]Mofo2000 Posted April 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 Alrighty, here's the video of the gun in action. The sound is a little muffled, but not bad for a 5mb video. it's quicktime format and takes a couple minutes to load. I don't know if right click and save would work.

1st Commando Posted April 6, 2006 Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 confirmed on the hopup ! my non trade version has adjustable hop Quote Link to post Share on other sites
1647 Posted April 6, 2006 Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 [VT]Mofo2000: Â Appreciate the video very much!! Â However, as you have already mentioned, the sound is muffled and I don't think it is an accurate account of the P226. Â I have found 2 other P226 vids (by Shao14 i think). Can you take a look and compare with the KJ and tell whether it is anywhere near it: Â TM P226 on 134a TM P226 on green Quote Link to post Share on other sites
[VT]Mofo2000 Posted April 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 It's like that, but with a metal clinking sound. Very similar to HFC Metal M190 firing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Soloman Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 I compared mine with my friend's m190, and it has a much deeper sound And harder kick Quote Link to post Share on other sites
1647 Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 I've forgotten how the M190 sounded, but if thats the one you guys are benching it against then I supose its not half bad then... Â I guess it's the KJ P226 then..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Soloman Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 M190 wins in gas efficiency-wise mind. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
1647 Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 That's pretty worrying isn't it.... I remember that I didn't like the gas efficiency of the M190 (CO2 version, with normal mags on green - I don't think it makes a difference) so I swapped it.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
[VT]Mofo2000 Posted April 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2006 both guns are great, but i just hate the goofy trades and the non-100% realistic body of the M190. Looks like we got a new winner on the Best Metal Clink category. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bisonman80 Posted April 27, 2006 Report Share Posted April 27, 2006 (edited) Thanks so much for this review. I could only fine this and one other, probably due to people's fears of KJW and because its so new. I've been wanting a p226 sig sidearm replica, but haven't been able to decide between Marui's or KJW's. After reading this and that other review, I'm leaning towards the KJW. Â Anyways, about the gas efficiency... (keep in mind I am an airsoft newbie) as long as it empties the whole mag with one gas fill, thats not a problem right? I mean, thats why you buy extra magazines. Who's got the time to put more bb's in their mags during a battle anyways... and was that the only problem you had with it? (oh and the little broken part) It's been almost a month since you last posted, have you any updates? Thanks a bunch again! Â Â (sorry if this is a Necro, I'm new the this forum so maybe you guys don't care about necro-ing) Edited April 27, 2006 by Bisonman80 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
[VT]Mofo2000 Posted April 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2006 i've been playing w it all day today (at 70 deg F) and I can pull off the entire mag and still have gas left. Â One update about the gun is that, it seems the piece that broke in my loading muzzle might occur more frequenly w the KJ guns (so far I've heard 2 cases). It's not a big problem, but I recommend getting the Guarder enhanced loading muzzle as a backup piece when you buy the gun. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bisonman80 Posted April 30, 2006 Report Share Posted April 30, 2006 Thanks for the info man. It was scheduled to arrive today, but its already 10:15 pm and the tracking information is like on pause, so i guess i'll have to wait until monday. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bisonman80 Posted May 2, 2006 Report Share Posted May 2, 2006 Woohoo! It finally came. This thing rocks. It sounds awsome, and feels great. The accuracy is decent, enough for a pistol. Definitely a good buy! Now I just need to buy 2 more mags... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Poacher Posted June 10, 2006 Report Share Posted June 10, 2006 I've had three KJW P14.45s and one M92F in the last three months, the P14s all had the breakage on the nozzle at the same angle on all of them, whilst the M9 consistently had jams and missfeeds. Maybe I'm just unlucky; but is this common with the P226s as I'm planning on getting one. cheers, -Poach Quote Link to post Share on other sites
