- PLEASE READ THE DESCRIPTION!
So in this video I am doing an unboxing of the Inokatsu Colt M1911A1 Standard Edition full steel CO2 GBB pistol. I will also share some information and my opinion of this pistol. I also do a brief comparison to the KWC 1911 CO2 GBB pistol.
I am not saying that the KWC 1911 is a replacement for the Inokatsu, but that you should probably consider what you are getting for the money in either case and compare the two.
Some of the plus points for the Inokatsu 1911
* Only full steel WW II style M1911A1 pistol on the market today (?)
* It's full steel!
* Realistic weight and feel
* Sounds amazing to operate
* Exclusive and unique
* Collectors item
Some of the negatives:
* Poor finish
* Poor fit of parts
* Slide stop lever comes loose from frame
* Lack of fake firing pin
* No RS style disassembly of the recoil spring plug
* Problems with the safety mechanism
* Only operates on ugly KJW CO2 magazines
* Expensive
* IMO, not worth the money
All in all, I cannot recommend this pistol as a whole. But if you read up on it, consider all the factors and then decide you still want it, then that is up to you. For me, it's not worth it for what you get. Like I said in the video, it's not that bad, but it's just not that good either.
Hope you guys enjoy! Please remember to subscribe, like and share!

Hello! thanks for this video! Only now I came across it and I loved your honesty, so but really so rare these days!
Thanks! Glad you found the video helpful. Worst purchase of my (airsoft) life so far :-(
your description helps a lot. just subscribed.
No problem! I can't remember if it was in the comments here or on a forum, so doesn't hurt to be stated more than once.
Glad you liked the video!
Thanks for the kind words. I try my best! :D
It's a terrible gun. You spend lots of money and you realise that the left edge of the slide is very bad made. It is not accetable for that kind of price. Very bad company.
Mane to that! :p
i agree, way to expensive. as for your comments on the finish do some more research. it is representing a ww2 gun. those guns had a parkerized finish. that finish when was rough until it was used for awhile.if you want a nice blued finish you have to go back to ww1 and the original 1911.
OK, thanks for the info! Glad you are happy with your INO 1911!
Someone already informed me of this, but thanks! My mistake, and now I have learnt something new!
As promised ! :D
The problem I have is that even when I have a buffer of material I want to share it all at once. But with all things they shall be put out in moderation, so I will try to do 1-2 videos per week at most, just to keep a decent pace :)
Dude, Thank you so much for this review. I almost went ahead and bought this gun just for the steel. But now im totally backing down from it.
Do you know what arsoftbrand makes the best Colt 1911? Like KWC or KJW or someone else entierly?
HolzmannsKnogar Well from the ones I have had the KWC 1911 is definately a very good bang for the buck. KJWs are also very good. I would say pick one of those. KWC is more proprietary in design but it works great and is really fun to shoot.

Hi man (Im also from Sweden btw)
I spent 5 days reading American, British and Swedish airsoft forums and watching TH-cam-video-reviews about which Airsoft Colt 1911 is the best model out there. The vote was unanimous.
The KWC wins all across the board.
The buildquality is the best, the preforamance is best, the price is really good, and people who owns both the KWC and KJW says that the KWC its the most fun to shoot with - Why it is so, they cant say, it just is. So i bought one. And im mightily happy with it indeed.
I picked mine apart completley, filed and polished every sharp corner, both inside and outside like gunsmiths do on Custom 1911s.
Then i removed all the external gray plastic-paint from it and then Gun-Blued it so it now shines blue-black like a real Colt 1911 (or the Inokatsu). I also ordered real wooden grips from eBay so now the feeling of holding it is hard-on-fantastic. Anyone can do this really, its quite simple. It took me 3 full days to complete it, but well worth it i say.
Only airsoft pistols that I have found you can manually drop the hammer on without it discharging gas are Western Arms
Yeah, It's kind of difficult from a design standpoint to make that happen so I can see why most manufacturers don't do it. Good to know.
yeah, 180 seemed kinda high to me too, so thats why I was thinking of them... Thanks for your help!
Go KWC. I bought one with the slide markings and tweaked the safety not to engage when hammer down and slide stop drops on slide slingshot.
Now why would I buy an inokatsu when I also have the real deal Colt 1911A1...
Yeah, that is true. Unfortunately for us airsoft, due to low volume production and high overhead always comes out more expensive in relative terms. Oh well.
No problem with me!
It's unfortunate that the 100 USD Colt 1911 models are so close in comparison to this one, and one very silly points at that.
That's basically the verdict on this. Unless you absolutely must have the most realistic and full steel 1911 out there, there are many better and affordable options to look into.
No not in person, just in pictures and video.
Im getting the colt m1911 100th anniversary. Co2 gbb semi auto. Full steel. And ut is essentially the same as what you have shown me. But mine works great. No problems. Great finish on the steel. And mine only cost $99. I would refrain from buying from where you received this gun. Great video though. And for a swedish person, youre english is impeccable. Im from america. However, I am bilingual, so I have a very, very, slight spanish accent. And use spanish sometimes instead of english. Anyway. Great video. Great gun. Wish you didnt get ripped off. My regards.
Cameron Brigham Sorry to burst your bubble but you most likely bought a KWC Colt 1911 CO2 pistol which is full metal, not steel. It normally retails for around $100 USD. And it's not the same as the Inokatsu 1911 pistol. However, as per the video above it is a great alternative to the $850 USD Inokatsu. I am sure you will enjoy it :D
Non Existent I dont know why I said full steel. It is metal.
magazine was a biggggg mistake, takes out the authenticity of the ww2 firearm!
Yeah for sure. Really sad they couldn't manufacture a flush fitting CO2 mag for it :(
have you tried a kwc co2 mag? i imagine they would be very similar fitting
Yeah I had a look at that and unfortunately the size and angle of the KJW CO2 mag means it doesn't even come close to working in the INO system.
The pistol works quite well with a Marui 1911 mag, using Guarder Up gas (black gas)
Not with the one I have currently. I had two at one point, one which I tried to disassemble just to take a look inside and clean it etc. And it was pretty brittle, I ended up breaking the piston head and strip one of the grip screw threads. So you need to be careful. However, if you just leave it be and shoot it as intended it seems to hold up very well so far!
Thanks, haha, yeah the INO is a bit of a disappointment I have to say. I may be making it look worse than it is due to my pessimism...
Will do. I have some Guarder 220 PSI gas an a flush KJW 1911 magazine. Will give it a go!
As a machinist myself //hobby// that's horrible, absolutely no measuring at all just send it, probably rushed it too, but that's not an excuse for quality, holy damn😮
Semi-true. I do shoot my guns on occasion, so it's a feature I would like to keep. But thanks for the tip :)
No. In fact not at all. I have the RA Tech Kimber Royal II, and it was a soul deal for me. Not what I expected, problems out of the box, money on upgrades etc.
From what I have seen and read on the Stainless it's not much different. So yeah, no way.
Also RA Tech never came thru with what they promised me in regards to the Royal II. I was promised full steel upgrade parts from the factory after I confronted them about all the KJW alu. parts... Never happened. :(
You have..... a very nice camera.
Sorry to hear that man. Good to know though!
Yeah the KWC comes with trades via Cybergun I believe. Internally and externally it is the same though. Might be different QC on the models unfortunately.
No worries man, no need to rush it!
I still got it! Gotta make an RS Case video for it as well :D
The grips are meant to be plastic, the ww1 m1911's grips are wood not the ww2
I've got the KWC/Cybergun SwissArms P1911, 4.5mm steel BB. I've done a couple of vids, one a review out of the box, the other after I polished it and added wood grips!
Great review and just in time.
I am considering to buy this gun until i saw this video.
In your opinion, does RA tech kimber royal ii better than this gun?
Great info, thanks for that. I will try this out in my KJW magazine with the Guarder 220 PSI gas.
How many shots can you get off though?
Is the fact that you can push the safety up without the hammer being cocked a fault or a design feature from Inoksatu ( although incorrect)
No doubt!
Yay, another video! :]
Unfortunately not. I am looking for some myself. I will let you know if I find any.
My KWC M1911A1 I bought drops the hammer if I play with the trigger with the safety on. Haven't tried it with CO2 yet, I just got it in the mail! Got mine from a swedish store, so maybe that is why it is not the same. It seems to be some 100th anniversary edition with colt markings on the slide
Haha, no. It was the cardboard box squeeking against the rubber mat I have on the table! :p
The inoksatu I used with a marui mag & up gas got of around 10 shots at a reasonable power, have to make sure the mag is warmed first though.
since you say you dont shoot your airsoft guns, you can buy a real actual ww2 1911 and take out the firing pin just to use as a replica.
There is a 'new' version of this going around. From a glance, they appear to have better stamped Colt trades, and obviously higher serial number ranges (I believe past 10700). Some French forums have mentioned it. I used Google Translate, and it appears that the feedback is pretty positive. The 2017 version is also cheaper. I myself have one of the 'old' versions (although it is the on the higher end of 'old'). Finish is pretty good, better than yours for sure. However, I am tempted to pick up one of these new versions to see if it has improvements (I'm thinking with the slide stop in particular), but finish and tolerance increases would be great (and I believe some have taken place based on the little I could find).
Yeah I saw that new cheaper version as well. Even if it was $100 USD I would not want it. I am done with INO :D
Got convinced to buy the 2017 version. If you're handy enough it's a decent deal. They have fixed the slide stop and the safety. The most annoying thing is that the CO2 efficiency is pure shit. The reason is that the firing pin lock (part 45) disengages far too late and waste tons of gas. Either you grind down the part so it disengages immediately or get a KJW CO2 blowback unit (part 7) since they disengage the firing pin lock earlier than the green gas version.
Are you tempted to purchase the new RA Tech Stainless Kimber
Ok, ok you drive a hard bargain. $55 two hugs and 3 platefuls of cookies. Final Offer.
No danger! I have tried and the hammer remain halfcocked. I've adressed the question to those from Inokatsu and they redirected me to my romanian retailer...:D. Anyway, I like very much that replica...
Thanks!
Unfortunately, no it is not, but it is :p
I have a couple of hours of video regarding the RA Kimber on this channel, check it out.
But in short, the overall quality, fit and finish is better on the RA. But it has other problems. It uses alot of KJW aluminum parts, and it has operational problems out of the box (thumb safety jamming etc). But if you have to get one or the other, I definately "recommend" the RA Royal. Best of luck!
Haha, no worries. It may come off as a little worse than it is, but I think we can all agree that it is indeed pretty bad. I will take this hit for the airsoft community! :p
Hope you are happy with the SAI Glock 34 :)
wow smooth hands bud
+a a Not exactly sure what that means, but thanks? :p
Haha! Excellent question to which I would assume INO would answer that it is a feature. I say it is a fault.
What is true I cannot say. But if it's suposed to be a high quality authentic 1911 replica, they failed on that point.
It’s still pretty 😘
Thanks for your help! I'm thinking of getting a KWC 1911 from Cobra Airsoft, because they seem to be the only people with it in stock for under $180. Do you know anything about them?
Thanks again.
Love the gun but I want the Grips lighter and a better mag
I have basically the same gun, but my box art is different and it is constructed much better, none of the imperfections you spoke of. Has this gun been re branded or something? It's still KWC but I think it is distributed by cyber gun, Inokatsu is nowhere on the box. What's the deal?
And I'm sorry, are you saying 860 dollars??
That is indeed what it appears I have done... Achivement of a lifetime ! :D
I guess my chances of getting this gun sold after posting this video are slim to none? LOL
Did you tried to manually decocking the hammer? You'll see another surprise from Inokatsu :)
How much..?
Have you had any difficulties with the KWC 1911 breaking/ having broken parts?
Sorry about the Inokatsu. :(
Thanks
What if I sweetened the deal with a plate full of cookies and a hug? :D
you spent 860 bucks for a gun who's slide is completely fucked????
well done m8...
Do you know who is stocking the newer slim line bumper KJ Co2 mags, i'am UK based.
Unbelievable I seen your video and canceled my order luckily I seen this video because I was about to pay 100$+ taxes in Canadian the pistol is literally just a chunk of steel is the only good thing going for it those dings in the slide is called pitting which I don't care for the greasy substance is called cosmolean it should have been at least parkerized grayish finish in color the unfit mainspring housing is what killed me the most the kwc/cybergun version is 10 times better
Glad my video helped you stay away from this product! Yes, the KWC/Cybergun 1911s are awesome! :D
Nah sorry man, never heard of them. 180 seems a little high unless it is with full trades on it.
I held the silver one. First impression is the same. Garbage. It is heavy and good looking but for $1000 the fitment is unacceptable. It makes so much noise rattling itself. Worse than some WE guns
Have you ever seen one of the special boxed versions,?
sooo... going to buy their 1300$ before shipping and VAT p226? I need someone to tell me how big of a fail that is.
john donovan Not a chance buddy :p
Naah, I don't do AEGs! :p
GBB / GBBR only!
You bought it for 800$????????
Well at least you thought something in the video was nice :p
Yeah, I am super happy with my new camcorder. Panasonic HC-V720 FTW :D
Yeah? Glad I am not the only one who thinks it's sub-par :|
that magazine makes the gun looks like ridiculous to some degree. m1911a1 should have that kind of mag.
Isn't it suppose to come in a wooden box of some sort????
AwesomesauceME08 Only the Deluxe Edition did that.
That's fucking dumb $800 for a POS and no box still? That's a bunch of shit.
Haha, yeah I am not getting any more of these deluxe edition steel pistols that's for sure!
I don't dare to try. I guess my thumb might get blown off ? :D
Do you happen to live in germany? Your kwc has the F for free firearm on it. or is that a global thing?
+A Hungarian Strafe Aaah, that makes sense. Thanks for the info! No I live in Sweden. But I think that marking is on a lot of airsoft guns as a marking for the German market then.
+Non Existent did your kwc get re branded as a gsg by any chance? I've got a luger p08 here which is clearly kwc but sold as a gsg (German sporting guns)
+A Hungarian Strafe Can't remember what is was branded as, but definately not GSG.
Non Existent Sweden is not a too good place considering airsoft laws either, is it?
+A Hungarian Strafe No it's not too bad actually. License free if you are above 18 years old. Single fire guns can be 10Joules, semi and full can be 3 (or 4Joules, can't remember). Other than that there's no real issues.
Those pits in the finish arent accurate at all. Thats very bothersome.
+ReggaeDubSoundSystem I know right. Just feels like very cheap scrap steel they bought at a junkyard for cheap and then reworked it and sold at an insane price :-(
Yeah, like it was dipped i thar or something. :(
try using MAP gas or red gas rather than using the ugly ass c02 magazine
Wow....... I was gonna get this one...... But bought sai g34 instead..... Shit happens. I feel really terrible while watching it, sorry man.
How's the accuracy?
Bryan Smith Can't say. Never shot it :p
the M1911 was not made in WWII it was made long before the first world war.
Dagr8soldjer Thanks for the info, my mistake! :)
no problem
I never said that 1911 was the first world war -_- 1911 is when the colt was introduced to service.
heero yuy Guess what? This isn't the History Channel :p
I got it wrong! :D
heero yuy He commented on my commentary where I said it was introduced during WW II :p
Totalmente lamentable una 1911 a1 ,yo como coleccionista iba a comprarla pero ya no ,pues tengo varias 1911 a1 y sin duda están mejores acabadas ,we, kjworks , ,muy cara para este acabado
Well, that's me out of the market for one. :(
Yeah, good decision :p
Get a KWC/Cybergun CO2 1911 instead. $110 USD and a lot more fun and great value for the money!
You can buy a real one for that price!
Hey, I'm new to the whole airsoft thing but that right there is a ripoff! I'll take it off your hands for $50 :D
Oh ok great video tho
The mag in the gun made me completely rage! Like seriously, it's glossy black, doesn't match the gun. Nice job inojika-whatever . Saw this earlier on redwolf, seems the price has gone down to $500. Still completely stupid. I think that this is more of a display piece, but then you're better off just buying a real 1911 and weathering it a bit, save you the headache of dealing with cheap Japanese makers. Pisses me off so much I think you can understand.. Sorry bro I know you're disappointed. /:
Hehe, yeah no doubt the worst airsoft purchase of my life :p
Yeah they released a new batch with lower price. I guess they were having a hard time selling them for $850 USD a piece :p
Thanks for this video mate. I have 2x KWC 1911 and I love them, and really wanted to see this Inokatsu against them. Really ugly magazine, why the hell they used KJW, really sad, if it would fit KWC I would REALLY think about getting it just for the real steel !!! BTW If you want to fit your KWC a real wooden grips here is my video for it maybe it will help you th-cam.com/video/GgQtJ_2FRAw/w-d-xo.html :) BTW2 great lightning conditions, and sound of the gun
Thank you very much for your kind comment, glad you liked it and found it useful :)
I will check out your video about the grips!
Why thank you, that is very generious of you. I shall consider your offer!
NOT! :D
$150 will make more sense
Xinran Li Fo sho bro!
Swap it for a PTW lol.
Let me sleep on that :p lol
I have to ask you: Are you from Sweden?
Yes I am!
Grymt, alltid roligt med svenska airsoft-kanaler på youtube!
Yeah I would have sent that piece back if I spent that much on it a received that shit show of a gun.
AwesomesauceME08 Hehe. Opinions vary greatly on this gun. Is it supposed to be half-badly made to replica the circumstanses it originates from, or is it just an overpriced piece of steel?
Over priced piece of shit, oops I mean steel. haha That's ridiculous though.
Did you sell or do you consider selling your inokatsu 1911?
Still have it and yes it is for sale. European sales have priority though. Where are you at?
Sverige!!
Price?
Do you build weapons in exhange for money? I have some weapons that I would have but I need someone to build it because I dont have the tool nor the skills to do so. If not, do you know anyone who will`?
Great!
Sell it to me
Yeh, how much? :-p
6:16 voice of girl?
Nomberofthebeast ahh
Most stupidest expensive bullshit I have ever seen yet from an airsoft pistol.
Haha. I would have to sort of agree :p
LOOL is that a joke? Almost 900 Dollars for such a crap and "normally" you wouldn't even get a magazine with the pistol? Why in the world would someone pay that amount of money for something which only pretends to be an object that can be had for far less money with better build quality that actually IS a 1911 pistol. ^^
How could that crooked slide make it through QC? And then you should ask yourself how in the world are the work ethics there at Inosuckso.
Sorry, but not even the WW2 built ones have such a sloppy machining and EVEN THE WW1 made 1911s have BETTER machining! Over 100 years old and they still fuck it up. That's an accomplishment right there folks. Get a Turkish made Tisas 1911, a REAL one for 400 dollars and you will get better quality than this piece of crap for less than half the price that actually can shoot.
***** Indeed. :o
Non Existent Hopefully you already sold that POS. Some are really blinded by the price tag and need to believe this is the best airsoft 1911. LOL
The safety issue is something that would get a manufacturer of real firearms in deep deep shit. A recall of all pistols would be issued.
***** Unfortunately not. It's kind of hard to sell a 800 USD PoS :p
Non Existent Should have made the video after you sold it. ;)
you can get a KWA M1911 A1 for better quality than that POS. its nearly 7 or 8 times cheaper and its a lot better machined then this.
