Ascend Airsoft announce that their KP1911 Gas Blowback Pistol has been released and interested reselles can contact them for details. You can read the review done by Airsoft Action Magazine which they included in this news submission... "The airsoft manufacturer Ascend Airsoft is a relatively young manufacturer on the airsoft market which is OEM by WE, with the WE made high-quality and modern airsoft replica experience, the Ascend is of course precisely and stably manufactured.

KP1911 is the second model that Ascend released, a combine of the outward appearance by Kimber’s Rapide Black Ice and the interior of WE system.

Kimber is an American company that designs and manufactures small arms and they are known for its M1911 style pistol. The KP1911 is a new designed of replica modeled by the new 'Kimber’s Rapide Black Ice' which was introduced in 2019 November, and hit the market when it’s out in the early 2020.

Ascend takes the proven WE M1911 full metal GBB chassis under its wing and turns it into visually very attractive custom airsoft pistols in a modern design. Made in full metal construction including the slides, frames and almost all other parts. And all parts of the Ascend KP1911 are completely compatible with the WE 1911 system.

Very eye-catching and the highlights of the series are the excellent fiber optic glow-sights, stripped grip, sculpted trigger guard and CNC milled slide for weight reduction and super-crisp recoil action. To make the pistol’s look lasts for a long time, the color of the pistol was not simply painted, but anodized as with many other high-quality pistols.

The inside of the KP1911 series is based on the current and reliable WE Mega flow Version 3 gas-blowback shot system to ensure a reliable shot function, and a strong blowback kick is guaranteed again due to the many metal parts. And thanks to the new ultra-precision inner barrel, the shooting precision comes close to that of a Tokyo Marui pistol. The rear structures have an anti-slip and supportive effect when gripping the slide for the clamping process. The slide also comes with green high-contrast fiber optic target sight, which ensure easy and quick sighting in action. The adjustable hop-up system is located on the outer barrel and is adjusted from the inside.

The Ascend KP1911 is a great entry-level option for players that want something that can give them satisfying recoil impulse, modern looks, and easy to use. Or it is also a beautiful made for collectors.
