I tried one once and it was an ok gun. Personally, I wouldn't skirmish it, but once you get it fixed up it's a decent weapon.

Try getting AV'd and then you will have access to more info.

WE pistols look nice but internally are shit. Will last you a few games before they break down. Get AVed blahblahblah...

Apart from being incredibly ugly, it should be alright if you use TM mags in it. WE pistols really aren't the best though. You can spend a similar amount of money and get way more bang for your buck.

as far as i know TM mags do not fit in WE guns, even though im not sure about the hi capas, however i am 100 percent the 1911 series/ MEU series do not take TM mags

and as for you my friend, i would not go for WE pistols, they arent as easily upgradable as other guns, if you want to upgrade it, change the slide etc, it takes some modification just to fit the slides, for the WE MEU i know they fit TM hi capa slides with a bit of modification, or little modification not sure my friend has one with a caspian slide tho

You would likey be much better off with a TM or KJW etc... They have way more upgrade options, and most of them are far more reliable.

I love everything WE, but I wouldn't dare take the Dragon into battle. It is big, ugly and just down right troublesome due to lack of proper QC on the part of WE, atleast that's what I tend to think about the gun myself. The WE 1911, on the other hand, now there's a decent gun. I would take this into a skirmish any day.

Overall, the Dragon is definitely NOT one of WE's better products.

I have heard good things about KWA handguns and they are the same price as WE handguns in retail stores.

I definitely wouldn't. My brother purchased one of these, and it didn't even make it to a game. The first time he fired it, the slide wouldn't cycle properly. We tried lube, both TM and WE mags, even pulling it apart and changing the return spring and nozzle assembly. Nothing worked. It's not a wall hanger. You're far better off with a KWA or TM. If you're looking for something unique, try the Desert Eagle by TM, or the M93R By KWA. Both are excellent pistols.
