Trigger Pull: The Single action only trigger pull on the Sig Sauer 1911 Emperor Scorpion Blowback CO2 BB Pistol is typical of what you will find on a KWC Blowback 1911, and that’s a good thing since it is short light and crisp similar to a real 1911 semi auto pistol.

Accuracy: A velocity test Sig says you can expect around 300 fps. We have been able to get an average 286 fps using a brand new CO2 in what we would consider to be about a room temperature which means in warmer conditions we are sure we can get the claimed 300 fps made by Sig Sauer.

Build Quality: The Sig Sauer 1911 Emperor Scorpion Blowback CO2 BB Pistol is same as with all Airguns the metals used are not firearms grade quality so you do need to be a bit more careful with them so as you will get years of use out of them.

Realism: The Sig Sauer 1911 Emperor Scorpion Blowback CO2 BB Pistol is a licensed replica of the real steel Sig Sauer 1911 Emperor Scorpion 45 ACP and from looking at photos on line or the Sig Sauer 45 APC version it is virtually identical in a appearance other than the hammer which on the 45 ACP version seems to have a larger and more oval skeletonized opening. That’s pretty minor in the scheme of things. As this is a full blowback Air Pistol, the mechanical functions mimic the real steal version very well and as expected you can even fully field strip this BB Pistol.

Pros:

• Based on the tried and true KWC 1911. Most parts should be mix and match.
• Full blowback operation.
• Excellent SAO 1911 trigger as expected.
• Full metal construction, has great realistic weight to it.
• Easy to see white dot sights front and back.
• Tactical with ambidextrous safety controls.
• Rail for adding on accessories like a laser or Tac light.
• Nice reassessed barrel ads to the realism.
• Love the two tone color scheme.
• Full Sig Sauer licensing.
• Looks virtually identical to the real steel Sig Sauer 1911 Emperor Scorpion.

Cons:

• Will go through CO2 fairly quickly.
• Lower fps because of full blowback operation.
• Sights are none adjustable.

Comments: Every time a new Blowback 1911 Airgun comes out we seem to say this one is our new favorite and well here we go again… Not only do we like 1911’s we also really like Sigs. We also seem to be a fan of town tone guns as it makes the parts on the gun really stand out in contrast to each other and we like that look. So when you put all of these things together it makes for a real winner in our books. With so many Blowback 1911 choices out there it is hard to make up ones mind, we would consider the Sig Sauer 1911 Emperor Scorpion Blowback CO2 BB Pistol to be in the top 3 for sure!
