Description

John Moses Browning's 1911 pistol design is now over a century old, but as reliable as it still is, over the years there have been many alterations to bring this classic to the modern day and this Army Armament is no exception

Constructed with an Alloy Frame and Slide, the pistol has a realistic feel and weight, with full metal construction, textured grip panels and a host of alterations, this is an aggressive but practical approach to the 1911.

At the very front of the pistol barrel we have a pre installed thread adaptor, with 14mm counter clockwise thread allowing for a variety of tactical goodies to be installed such as silencer and tracer units depending on your playstyle. Either you prefer to be the stealthy spec-ops type, or a more aggressive player, the choice yours!

Moving on to the slide we can see several cut grooves to the front and back end of the slide, allowing for additional grip for quick cocking action as well as reducing the weight slightly for even quicker and snappier cycle motions. Plus the grooves fit the spec ops style look of the pistol; sleek, yet menacing.

Mounted to the slide we have the light enhancing sights, while not technically they feature rods that glow when light hits them, facilitating enhanced accuracy in those low light conditions.

Below the slide, just above the trigger we have the textured slide lock, which allows you to lock the slide back manually  and sports a dotted texture for extra friction, so even wearing gloves the lock can be accessed with the flick of the thumb.

The lightweight skeletonised hammer of the E911 can be found at the rear of the frame, and as with most GBB pistols, will be actuated by the slide and fall when the trigger is pulled. It is this type of realistic action that makes gas blowback pistols so popular; you can't get much more realistic than this! The hammer, again finished in slick chrome, can be manually cocked for maximum drama if you ever find yourself in those movie standoff moments!

This Army Armaments variation comes with a low profile mag release with a large surface area, allowing lightning fast reload times to keep pace in the heat of battle. Additionally the magwell is combat optimised keeping the pistol low profile with a less bulky design that other 1911 pistols, again adding to those smooth quick reloads.

The 1911 comes with two safety systems built-in; the right handed manual safety, and the beavertail grip safety. The manual safety can be found at the rear of the frame, on either side of the pistol, and sits comfortably beneath the shooter's thumb for fast access. When not in use, this safety can also be used as a "gas pedal" style thumb rest to help control the muzzle climb and assist in rapidly aiming at multiple targets. This safety can be activated whether the pistol is cocked or not by flipping it up with the thumb into the recess on the left side of the slide. With the safety on, both the trigger and slide will be locked. The secondary safety, known as the "beavertail grip safety" is a hallmark 1911/Hi-capa feature, and disables the pistol from firing unless the safety is depressed and the pistol is gripped properly. This prevents negligent discharges during drawing or inserting into from a holster and encourages an efficient and effective shooting grip. The beavertail safety can be found at the rear of the grip and can be deactivated by holding the pistol with the protrusion pressed in.

Unique to the Army Armaments range of R32 pistols, the magazines feature an extended style which allows the base plate to be extended making it easier to remove the magazine from the pistol as well as increasing the magazine's capacity and gas well, those extra shots might make the difference between life and death in game!

The enlarged gas well allows the magazine to work better in colder conditions thanks to the large volume of gas.

This pistol is perfect for Airsoft skirmishers who are looking for a more modern side arm, or for those who are looking for a pistol with a great kick and plenty of features not found on more traditional 1911s.

Special Instructions

These table can be used as a reference to see if the BB weight you are using will be over acceptable Joulage limits at some Airsoft Sites in the UK. To check if the weight can be used chrono your weapon using the BB you intend to use, and then compare it to the chart.

FPS, Power and Joule Limits can vary from site to site, so please get in touch with where you're going to play with in advance to avoid disappointment.

Suggested limits are based on Joulage Limit rules used Halo Mill: Proving Grounds, with a 350fps limit for Automatic Replicas, 400fps for Semi-Automatic Replicas, and 500fps for Bolt Action Replicas.

Tap the tabs below to open the relevant chart for your replica.
