Legal Information

iWholesales Ltd is a trade-only supplier ofAirsoft recreational equipment. Airsoft is a popular, non-lethal sporting hobby in the UK, legally and safely categorized alongside common activities like paintball and gel blasting.

1. A Safe & Regulated Hobby
  • Recreational Nature: Airsoft is an organized sporting activity focused on teamwork and target play, much like paintball.
  • Safety Tested: These items are engineered to discharge lightweight 6mm plastic pellets that are non-lethal and designed specifically for hobbyist use.
  • Legal Status: Under the Firearms Act 1968 (Section 57A), airsoft products are not considered firearms because they operate at very low energy levels.
2. Muzzle Energy & Safety Limits

To ensure these items remain safe for recreational play, they strictly follow the kinetic energy limits set by UK law:

  • Fully Automatic Models: These are capped at 1.3 Joules.
  • Single Shot Models: These are capped at 2.5 Joules.
  • Toy-Like Characteristics: Because they fire only plastic or part-plastic spherical missiles (max 8mm diameter) at these low energies, they are legally recognized as safe recreational tools.
3. Restricted Professional Ecosystem (B2B)

While individual buyers at retail shops must provide proof of "Defense" (such as a skirmisher membership) under the VCRA Act, iWholesales operates at a higher professional tier:

  • Vetted Trade Only: This platform is a Closed Ecosystem. We do not sell to the general public.
  • Mandatory Business Verification: Every account is manually reviewed and approved by our compliance team. We only supply verified retailers who are already legal professionals in the hobby industry.
  • Pre-Vetted Supply Chain: By the time an item is listed here, it has already passed through our strict safety and legal vetting process, ensuring it is 100% legal to trade.
4. Industry Accreditations

Product Overview

The WE 1911 Co2 Blowback Air Pistol, 4.5mm/.177 – (Classic Silver – Full Metal – WE-45-E006A) is a premium, exhibition-grade airgun engineered to deliver an authentic, heavy-recoil training experience with a brilliant, eye-catching aesthetic. Modeled after John Browning's legendary M1911 military sidearm, this CO2-powered replica prioritizes historical mechanical accuracy, structural durability, and realism. Rather than relying on polymer shortcuts, WE Tech has constructed both the slide and frame from high-density structural metal alloy, providing an empty weapon heft and operational balance that perfectly duplicates the live-fire combat firearm, finished in an elegant, polished silver plating.

Performance-wise, the WE 1911 Classic Silver operates on a single standard 12g CO2 cartridge housed neatly within its drop-free 16-round vertical metal magazine. This high-pressure powerplant drives a crisp, hard-kicking semi-automatic gas blowback sequence, physically cycling the heavy metal slide and locking back cleanly on the last round. True to its military heritage, the pistol features an authentic Single-Action Only (SAO) trigger, a functioning thumb safety lever, a working slide-stop release, and a grip-activated beavertail safety that prevents discharging unless a proper firing grip is established. Outfitted with contrasting dark diamond-checkered grip panels for a slip-free hold and an adjustable hop-up assembly to fine-tune downrange consistency, this .177 caliber steel BB air pistol offers wholesale distributors, tactical training businesses, and historical collectors an uncompromised blend of timeless style and rugged modern engineering.
