    The only issue I have with the blowback 1911s is the wear on the safety, it becomes dangerous after a while.

    That said, I never use a safety anyway, they are just not safe.
    Great Deals with : Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich

    Yes, well worth mentioning.
    If you put the safety on on my TFW and then pull the trigger while also operating the grip safety, when you then take the manual safety off the gun will fire
    I'm glad I found this out when dry firing....
    Good deals with these members

    I'll try again:
    Are there any pellet 1911's with blowback? or is that only available on BB versions?

    I want a 1911 with blowback to practice with and I don't want steel bb's bouncing all over

    There aren't any.

    Go 6mm bb and the world's your oyster. Slightly safer than steel.

    One Pellet gun only Colt Government 1911 by Umarex, BUT NO Blowback

    You could try the H&N 'EXCITE' copper coated lead BBs for no rebound?

    My thoughts entirely. Hate safeties anyway but deffo don't rely on the on them with the lookalike guns. Pete.
