Umarex Colt Special Combat CO2 BB Gun Review

[VipersCave1]

G&G Xtreme45 FTW!!!

[tills1974]

The Best guns IMO are the made in Germany Umarex models , Above and beyond the Taiwan models IMO

[switchingtomac]

@tills1974 They are quality guns.

[funny2743]

@tills1974 dude i wish i could get one free because its tempting me please help me

[tills1974]

Its also just like the skeleton Sidearms 1911 wow they are sure counterfieting alot of guns ..

://ww.buyairsoft.ca/manufactur­ers/skeleton-sidearms/skeleton­-sidearms-ss1911-tactical.html

[switchingtomac]

@tills1974 No one is really counterfeiting, they all pretty much buy there guns from the same manufacturers and then rebrand them ;)

[tills1974]

@switchingtomac Cool, This Version is definately the one to own out of the bunch !

[airsoftwhermatch]

@bf2lover42 search wingun 1911

[airsoftwhermatch]

wow... that bb gun is externaly and internaly like my win gun 1911 (airsoft) O.o

[bf2lover42]

@airsoftwhermatch I find it hard to believe that a company actually made a double action airsoft 1911

[robblac]

no blow back..pity..

[JackIsBoss98]

Can I return it if it brakes or something

[switchingtomac]

@JackIsBoss98 We have a 30 day repair policy.

[Funjackerjones]

Hey, Dyslesxia is not a laughing matter.

But very nice gun indeed. Might add it to my Tangfoglio 1911 for little 1911 collection. :)

[switchingtomac]

@Funjackerjones Was the best way to describe my confusion over single and double action as it can be confusing in a dyslexic sort of way...

[Funjackerjones]

@switchingtomac I know =P i made a Dyslexia joke myself =P hence misspelling Dyslexic. Being dyslexic myself. I find all jokes and comparisons funny ;)

Anyway, love this gun. In fact i love all 1911's actual 45's and bbs :D

[bosse810]

does the magazine have a little bit wabel or is it a tight fit?

[switchingtomac]

@bosse810 They have just a bit...

[bosse810]

@switchingtomac So it's normal that the magazine ratels a bit in the gun?

Btw very nice review it convinced me to buy this gun :p

[switchingtomac]

@bosse810 Yes.

[JackIsBoss98]

i dont know which one to get colt special cobat or dan wesson

[switchingtomac]

@JackIsBoss98 Both are great, flip a coin ;)

[MrCalimexguy]

can i get this shipped to LA, california ?

[switchingtomac]

@MrCalimexguy Shouldn't be a problem...

[brad56pierson]

can u take it apart like a normal hand gun?

[switchingtomac]

@brad56pierson I have not tried to take mine apart, but I don't think it field strips without tools?

[brad56pierson]

@switchingtomac ok sweet thx man



[earthpit1]

mmm...i have loved this gun ever since i held one in a local gun store, then i found the tanfoglio witness. money isnt a problem, i know the colt SC is more expencive, but like you said the witness is alot more 'real'. blow back im not fussed. it comes down to 'new and shiny' or 'rough and worn'....and i really really dont know which i prefure!! i feel like the colt SC i wouldnt want to scratch it! but on the flip side with the witness, its a little cheeper so i wouldnt want to break it! views?

[switchingtomac]

@earthpit1 The Witness will hold up.

[csZaw]

@switchingtomac make video Anics 112

[switchingtomac]

@csZaw I don't have any plans right now to review that model but if one comes my way I will for sure reviews it!

[csZaw]

@switchingtomac ok thank for watching comment

[777jraya]

do you need an ID for this

just asking

[switchingtomac]

@777jraya What do you mean by an ID?

[777jraya]

@switchingtomac

yea sir like an california identification to buy online

[switchingtomac]

@777jraya In Canada we do not need ID to buy this airgun, you just have to be an adult.

[michalkichal123]

Pls, take a chromo test of this gun and show it.

[Mrjamestw]

Would you say it is powerful / accurate enough to take down small pest birds?

[switchingtomac]

@Mrjamestw I generally don't recommend BB guns for pests, your best off to get a .177 cabler dedicated air rifle for that, more power and accuracy and more humane for the pests.

[damirYugoslaaf]

Loveyour videos , and i am buying this gun because of your videos.

Thanks for making this videos!

Greetz from Montenegro

[switchingtomac]

@damirYugoslaaf Thank you - and you're welcome!

[crazybritishlad]

shame its only 394FPS 

[switchingtomac]

@crazybritishlad That's plenty for taking down round the yard targets.

[123guitarsrule]

this gun is sick i want it

[switchingtomac]

@123guitarsrule It is a nice one for sure!

[newbie20111]

@switchingtomac It's nice I like using this one because its have nice shooting style :)

I start to like others ^_^

[WhutThePhuq]

i dont like that gun, the slide doesnt go very far back either,

[switchingtomac]

@WhutThePhuq The slide goes all the way back, just down't lock back as far.

[okachoe]

wow this gun looks freakin NICE

[switchingtomac]

@okachoe It is very flashy!

[AIRSOFTMAN819]

WG Also make ASG's Guns As Well. And a few crosman guns

[switchingtomac]

@AIRSOFTMAN819 Seems lit a lot of guns get repurposed back and forth between Air and Airsoft.

[AIRSOFTMAN819]

@switchingtomac Its seems to be working out well though. i havent heard of any problems with designs. although some of the airsoft models are too powerful for games. such as the nbb 1911 i mentioned below. so i have no complaints

[AIRSOFTMAN819]

they make an airsoft version of this called the WG 1911. it shoots around 500fps. and this is not made by umarex. its umarex licensed and distributed. its made by WG. ive never seen the 4.5mm version until now. great review. worth a sub

[switchingtomac]

@AIRSOFTMAN819 Yes I have seen it, different colors but the same gun.

[freelols]

Ha, you said doody

[CyrilViXP]

Looks awesome. It's a pitty that it is not blowback.

[bigboss331000]

I live in Vancouver and I want a bb gun do u kno where to get them and how much they cost?

[switchingtomac]

@starkey1356 I have not tried but I don't think so?

[starkey1356]

Think this will be the next CO2 pistol i purchase. can it be field stripped like the tanfoglio?

[CyberDruidtheModGod]

Hideous design IMO. The whole point behind the 1911 is the trigger going straight back. Double action on this gun is HERESY.

[switchingtomac]

@CyberDruidtheModGod Take a look at the Cybergun Tanfolglio Witness1911, much better single action 1911 trigger!

[redfan1971]

only i live in england, where non of us are trusted to own handguns.

[redfan1971]

buy a real gun.

[switchingtomac]

@redfan1971 I do own real guns, but I like shooting air guns, cheeper to shoot and you can shot them in may more places.

[NinoBambiino]

how the hell did you get a .45 ACP in Canada?!

[switchingtomac]

@NinoBambiino It's easy, you get your Restricted Firearms License, then go and buy one.

[ZdzisuafCiemnosci]

@switchingtomac It looks a little bit like the Kimber Eclipce Target II which Is one of my favorite 1911's ^^

[switchingtomac]

@ZdzisuafCiemnosci Yes it does but the Kimber has the real 1911 trigger :)

[ZdzisuafCiemnosci]

@switchingtomac so close.. : D

have You ever wondered why on so many airsoft guns there are "true" 1911 triggers and not on bb guns? :o

[switchingtomac]

@ZdzisuafCiemnosci It is weird, Airsoft guns seem to go for realism more then standard BB guns do, at least in general.

[ThirdElexis]

Im not really a gun guy or anything but that is one pretty piece of engineering

[41iou]

i just gt 1 of them people say its heavy as for bb game

[Xbox4lex]

Should I buy this gun or the Tanfoglio Witness 1911????

[switchingtomac]

@Xbox4lex Both are nice, I think if I could only have one it would be the Tanfoglio.

[Xbox4lex]

@switchingtomac Ok thanks! :)

[Mr2009Done]

@switchingtomac But what airgun would you prefer is coolest the Colt special combat or the Cz 75 p07 duty blowback ?

[switchingtomac]

@Mr2009Done I like shooting the CZ and I also like it in the dual tone, If I could only have one would be the CZ 75.

[Mr2009Done]

@switchingtomac Ok thanks for the answer ^^ i think i will buy the cz 75 then 

[aelita12345678910]

action dislexia xPPP even if i have dyslexia at writing i woulf trade it for action dyslexia

[ThlxCaRnAgE]

How much does it cost

[luksmash96]

which should I buy: Umarex Colt Special Combat, Umarex Colt 1911 A1, Umarex SA 177 or P-07 Duty? I'm looking for power and if possible precision

sorry for my bad english but im a argentinian

[SkuLLZzx]

why i only listen on my left ear???

[lbjoshbal]

on average are airsoft pistols fragile compared to a real gun? like if you were to drop it.

[zackweb123]

can you field strip this gun like the tanfoglio witness 1911?

[Ghalegardan]

Hey guys please helt a bit ? I cant decide which one i should buy, the Dan Wesson revolver in black, or this Special Combat, i mean the single and double action thing feels way better on the Dan Wesson, but still this ones also cool, but aint hard for me to buy them live in europe so they have it 10 min from me, but cant decide, any suggestions ?

[zeek2295]

What if it blends

[wxxsadnessxx]

Is it okay to dry fire an airsoft gun?

[switchingtomac]

@wxxsadnessxx In most cases it is OK.

[wxxsadnessxx]

@switchingtomac ok cool because im thinking of trying to get one for christmas and my parents, well its my mom only shes like "its to dangerous" so i said ill just shoot it withought the bb's. So now i know! thanks! :)

[3KidPlay]

wow these bb guns look real back in the day we didn't have all this neat stuff

[switchingtomac]

@3KidPlay Yes, it is much better now!

[3KidPlay]

@switchingtomac funny thing is im only 12 and i say back in the day

[switchingtomac]

@3KidPlay Back in the day was like two years ago for you...

[3KidPlay]

@switchingtomac Yes sir

[DobermanCrew]

@3KidPlay  back in the day will actually be 4 years from now for you =))

[3KidPlay]

@DobermanCrew more like 10 years

[98MrTurtle]

@3KidPlay So you shot with bb gunz when you were 2? -_-

[3KidPlay]

@98MrTurtle No but i have seen them before i was 4

[SuperQwety123]

God that's pretty...

[SniperDoggyDog]

Awesome co2 gun, another great review

[switchingtomac]

@SniperDoggyDog Thanks!

[suckadick2012]

How much did you get it for?

[switchingtomac]

@suckadick2012 For what?

[switchingtomac]

@suckadick2012 I have them all listed here:

replicaairguns(dot)com/about-m­e/

[Jakob0Guns]

Can you get real wood 1911 grips on it?

[switchingtomac]

@Jakob0Guns I don't know?

[reckoboy25]

@switchingtomac how many bb guns do u have?

[ryanclifton1]

Can you look for this gun in sparks nevada

[leonardo64831]

Are you sure about the fps of the gun? Because my softair sniper shot about 450-470 fps....

[switchingtomac]

@leonardo64831 Metal BB's are much heavier so they will go slower.

[freddykill13]

So nice

[buddythegreatful]

I'm a boy

[buddythegreatful]

Hi I have just bought this gun my slide isnt working. Please help me with that,thank you and goodbye

[switchingtomac]

@buddythegreatful Can you give more details, gender is not important.

[stewyg1978]

Hi, i have boought this gun recently. have you had any issues or know of any regarding the magazine? My magazine seems loose. It is connected but rattles about in the grip. After a about 10 magazines through it ( from new ) it now sticks in a firing position and all the gas escapes. Could you adviuse me on the fault, if its common etc..

Thanks

[switchingtomac]

@stewyg1978 I would recommend you take it in where you purchased it and get it fixed. I have heard of a couple of them with s similar problem but with all CO2 guns there are some cases of CO2 and Magazine related problems.

[stewyg1978]

@switchingtomac

Thanks, took it back to the shop today.

[emilio123333]

haha the bb gun looks nicer than the real one

[medara13uchiha]

Did you already make the ''single and double action'' explanation review:D

[switchingtomac]

@medara13uchiha That's a good idea! It is sometimes hard to explain, I got it mixed up often in the beginning!

[switchingtomac]

@medara13uchiha it is purdy!

[Irish16King]

Hi I just got this gun 2days ago and today when I was using it, after the gas was used up, the mag wont come out. It turns out that the hammer is jamming the mag in. What Can I do?

[switchingtomac]

@Irish16King Have you tried cocking the hammer and moving the slide back first?

[Irish16King]

@switchingtomac I just tried that but its not working. The problem is that the end of the hammer ( the pin) is just holding the mag in. The button type thing at the back of the mag that the pin pushes into so that the gas is released? Well the pin is just staying there .

[switchingtomac]

@Irish16King You may have to take it in to where you got it and get it fixed?

[Irish16King]

@switchingtomac Thought so :/ Just thought you might have any info. Thanks anyway and great videos. Apart from this kinda big problem I really like the gun

[kevinsa123]

Will you fking shoot with it ?

[stewyg1978]

I`ve bought this gun, there are so many to choose from but i decided this would be my next purchase.

Thanks for this review and your others, i will be buying more umarex guns and wilkl be checking your reviews for everyone of them.

Could you add a shooting part to your vids? like the last 2 or 3 mins dedicated to shooting tin cans, paper targets etc..?

Keep up the good work.

Northwest UK

[switchingtomac]

@stewyg1978 All my latest reviews had shooting and Chrono tests included in them. Thanks!

[stewyg1978]

@switchingtomac

Oh, i`ll check them out dude, i must have only seen your older ones :o)

[Inspiration2k]

thanks for this great review! so helpful when wanting to buy a new co2 gun:)

[switchingtomac]

@Inspiration2k You're welcome!

[randomusername987]

I think if it had blowback and a more realistic trigger, i wouls seriously consider this.

[MrJooyiap]

call me yiap

i wan ask this gun can buy at malaysia?

[switchingtomac]

@MrJooyiap I don't know if it is available in Malaysia?

[jinryosuke]

@MrJooyiap i'm from Malaysia~ i need too ><

[SteveMontuno]

cheers mate,.

[SteveMontuno]

hi michael,,,i got this gun yesterday, and if i shoot it when the mag has no BB's inside, it releases all the air out of the co2 tank,plus it sometimes just empties the co2 tank out after a few shots,ive wasted a dozen co2 tanks,am i doing something wrong or have i got a faulty mag or could it be something michanical inside the gun thats faulty,,,,,cheers dude.

[switchingtomac]

@SteveMontuno Sounds like you have a faulty valve in the magazine. I would get it replaced by who ever you purchased it from.

[lordlapswans]

my double action spring broke and my magazine broke twice ! and that in 3 weeks ! i also needed to tune the spring in the piston housing becouse the velocity realy dropt badly !! mine pistol whas just realy bad !

[switchingtomac]

@lordlapswans Sounds like you got a real lemon?

[nickarry]

i'm selling mine in england great condition for £95. it's great but i need money lol.

[DirtyStang69]

Found one from w w w. g u n s t a r . c o . u k for £105!! thats what im getting!

[MaZZaFaKKaH]

can you use the sig sauer gsr magazine on this?

[switchingtomac]

@MaZZaFaKKaH No you can not.

[fruhotchiliman]

so if it´s a non blowback gun how does it reload the next BB after evry shot?

[switchingtomac]

@fruhotchiliman The spring in the magazine pushes it up into the barrel area. With some BB guns the trigger also makes the barrel move back and forth moving the next BB into the firing chamber.

[stratey08]

whats the cost of this in US currencies

[switchingtomac]

@stratey08 Pretty much the same give or take a few bucks.

[31095Dave]

yeahh, oh good point. and do you know anywhere I could get a Umarex Colt Special Combat in the UK? you couldnt import a used/refurbed one for about £90-100 could you? :\

[switchingtomac]

@31095Dave These sell for $229 Canadian here in Canada.

[HenryHenHenners]

@31095Dave After the silly law about ordering guns online, theres only one website that still delivers guns. w w w . p e l l p a x . c o . u k. there is the special combat colt on there! can't remember what the price is and it will take a week or more to arrive!

[31095Dave]

I like the trigger on it

[switchingtomac]

@31095Dave Yes more realistic.

[31095Dave]

Well im looking at your vid of the : Cybergun Sig Sauer GSR SIGARMS. looks realistic and is cheap?! isnt it?

[switchingtomac]

@31095Dave Pretty good for an inexpensive air gun but no blowback on the GSR.

[31095Dave]

You have loadsss! thats awesome man. Im in the UK and have 7 acres of land, I have an Air Arms S200 with 10-shot conversion kit, silencer and bipod. But now just want something for a toy ( even though I fully understand it isn't one!). just something to shoot cans when Im bored, But Im looking for one, second hand for around £90-100 and less. I'd love the Umarex Colt Special Combat but can't get one her in the UK, there is none about! what is the most realistic gun you have? Thank you

[switchingtomac]

@31095Dave The most realistic guns I have are teh Cybergun Tanfoglio Witness 1911, GSG 92 and Sig Sauer X-Five.

[31095Dave]

Thank you, great videos by the way, thanks for doing so many! How many do you own?! must be awesome :)

[switchingtomac]

@31095Dave Your Welcome! You can see a list of them all here:

replicaairguns(dot)com/about-m­e/

[31095Dave]

this or the CP88? Which is more powerful, and which is heavier, bigger? More realistic? AWESOME GUN! Thank you!

[switchingtomac]

@31095Dave The CP88 is heavier and also shoots pellets at up to around 400 FPS so it would have more power.

[31095Dave]

this or the CP88? Which is more powerful, and which is heavier, bigger? AWESOME GUN! Thank you!

[baracuda1290]

Can it fire plastic BB's?

[switchingtomac]

@baracuda1290 No, just 4.5mm Metal BB's

[TArKiNgZ]

could this kill small game such as birds,squirrels, and rabbits?

[switchingtomac]

@TArKiNgZ It's a plinker not a hunter, would not be humane.

[mariocampos16]

I Wnat That Gun It Looks Beautiful.
