I have many,I get the fully functional metal replicas, and most of them are made in Korea, some are German, and the Japanese ones are hard to get; The "gas" ones I have are good.
My replicas are like the real "thing", same weight, size, and function....cost about $120 on up, and some of the .45 you can customize to your liking.
What happened was I sold all my real ones and missed them so much I then got the exact replicas of "some" of them....
