Tokyo Marui Colt M45A1 Gas Blowback Pistol in Black

Classic .45 heritage meets Tokyo Marui precision with the Colt M45A1 CQB GBB Pistol in black—a faithful airsoft replica of the US Marine Corps' trusted sidearm. Designed for players who value military realism and battlefield functionality, this airsoft pistol takes the timeless 1911 silhouette and updates it with modern internals, refined recoil dynamics, and user-friendly enhancements that make it one of the best skirmish-ready 1911-style gas blowbacks on the market.

The M45A1 arrives in a matte black finish that’s low-key and all business. It features licensed Novak-style rear sights for quick sight alignment, and G10-style textured grip panels that offer superb control in all weather conditions. The frame is fitted with a 20mm integrated Picatinny rail—allowing easy attachment of torches or lasers, without compromising the pistol’s clean, aggressive look. It’s tactical, it’s elegant, and it’s built with purpose.

Internally, Tokyo Marui have taken a big leap forward. This isn't just another 1911 clone. They’ve re-engineered the blowback system, delivering a sharper, more responsive recoil with improved gas efficiency over their older single-stack designs. Each shot feels punchy yet controlled, with fast slide cycling and stable operation that gives you an edge in CQB scenarios where response time matters.

The die-cast 27-round magazine is designed to cope with cooler temperatures, and pairs perfectly with low-pressure gas like Nuprol 1.0 or 144a. The pistol operates reliably and consistently, but it’s worth noting that using green gas isn't recommended, as it could accelerate wear and compromise long-term performance. TM designed this for precision, not brute force.

Weighing in at 823g with the mag inserted, the M45A1 has a satisfying heft without being cumbersome. It balances beautifully in the hand, aided by the familiar 1911 grip angle that naturally aligns your sights the moment you raise the pistol. The 113mm inner barrel offers excellent accuracy at typical engagement ranges, especially when paired with quality 0.25g BBs and a properly set hop-up.

And here’s a clever touch: Marui have built a metal notch spacer into the ABS slide to prevent damage from the slide stop over time—a small detail that makes a big difference in the pistol’s lifespan, especially if you're training or skirmishing regularly. This is the kind of attention to detail that sets Tokyo Marui apart from the crowd.

Whether you’re a die-hard 1911 fan, a CQB operator looking for a reliable and realistic sidearm, or a collector drawn to its military roots, the Tokyo Marui M45A1 Black is the kind of pistol that earns its place in your kit. It’s refined, functional, and ready for whatever your skirmish day throws at you.
