Hi . Anyone had any experience with CYMA M1911 AEP ? I prefer AEP`s over gas and want to purchase a pistol I can use for WW2 as well as being reliable enough for normal airsofting . Any suggestions or comments will be grateful

I bought one, sight unseen from HK for about £30 when they were first announced. It works well enough (it's effectively a Cyma Glock in fancy dress) but, and this is the biggy, it's about 50% wider than a real one, as they didn't bother doing anything to alter the dimensions of the glock AEP internals. This means a: It looks bloody stupid, and b: it's a struggle to fit it into any period holsters. Also, if you do manage to get it into a holster, the pressure on the mag release button means the mags fall out *very* easily.
On the fun side, it has a full auto mode and you can fit the Cyma Glock's hicap mag so you can have a hopelessly inaccurate mini smg at open days. 
In short, I'd say don't bother for a ww2 impression, and if you want one for messing about at open days, don't spend more than about £30 (personally for open days, I'd go for the Glock version, at least it looks accurate).
I'd personally go for a NBB gas pistol, which is what I use for ww2.
