Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the KJWorks KP-19 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol is excellent, it is super short and light as you would expect from a 1911 trigger, the makeup is almost non-existent with a super light release. Out of the box we find it perfect but you have the option of adjusting it with the supplied Allen key since it has competition adjustably. Like I said, out of the box it felt perfect to me so there is no real need to mess around with it.

Accuracy: At this point we have not shot the KJWorks KP-19 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol or made our Field Test Performance Video. We have shot our fair share of KJWorks Full Blowback Airsoft Pistols and they have in general performed very well for me, so we are confident when we get to the Field Test Shooting Video for the KJWorks KP-19 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol it will do a great job!

Build Quality: The KJWorks line of Airsoft Guns is known for their excellent build and overall quality and the KJWorks KP-19 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol is no exception. You will find all metal for the most part including some CNC Aluminum parts like the barrel and compensator, the slide and frame are metal along with the magazine and most of the controls. The pistol grip and trigger guard is all in one and the main plastic you will find on the KJWorks KP-19 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol. Weight, feel and balance is really good.

Realism: The KJWorks KP-19 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol is a double stack modern tactical 1911 in design. All of the controls and the overall design are that of a 1911 and so if you are use to shooting 1911’s, then you will be accustomed to this Airsoft Pistol. The full length blowback simulates the shooting experience along with some recoil feel and also allows for that true single action only trigger we are use to with 1911’s with its short and super light trigger pull. The KJWorks KP-19 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol is fully field strippable which allows for easy to get to hop-up adjustments. We did notice that the Back-strap safety is non-functioning and just there for show, we are not sure why they did not make it a working safety?

Pros:

• Lots of metal parts with good weight to it at nearly 2 pounds.
• Full heavy blowback operation.
• Excellent fit and finish as always with KJWorks pistols.
• High capacity full-size drop out magazine that holds 25 rounds.
• Picatinny rail underneath for adding accessories.
• Adaptor plate for adding a red dot to the rear of the slide.
• We like the green dot fiber optic sights, super easy to see on all backgrounds.
• We like the two tone CNC aluminum barrel finish you can also see through the slide cutouts.
• Super short and light skeletonized adjustable trigger looks and feels great.
• Can use CO2 or gas magazines.
• Field strip-able.

Cons:

• Grips are wide, may not fit the hands of small shooters.
• Not all controls are ambidextrous.
• Rear sight is not adjustable.
• Back-strap safety is non-functioning.

Comments: We’ve mentioned in many of our videos how we really like 1911 styled pistols and of course ones with full blowback operation, so the KJWorks KP-19 CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol for us is a winner even before we even try it. Of course how it performs is going to be the real deciding factor, even if we are rooting for it. What is not to like though? It is almost all metal, has full blowback operation, easy to see fiver optic sights front and back, the ability to add a laser or tac light up front with a red dot on the back by installing the adaptor plate so you can really dress this one up and make it your own at the end of the day.
