Hey guys,

So I got my first 1911 (Meu) in November and its been an amazing experience. Im currently in the market for another 1911 (Or 5.1) and I have narrowed it down to two choices. I want to get some opinions on both choices as I have very limited knowledge on these two models. I will be gaming these guys on a weekly/by-weekly basis so durability and parts availability is important

Top Three Preference:
1 Durability
2 Accuracy
3 Overall Performance

Things Im curious about:

-Which of the two handles propane the best?
-Are parts interchange able with other models of the same gun (1911 & 5.1 Cappa series)
-Can I put a metal slide on the Match Custom 5.1?
-Over all performance of the two guns

1. Tokyo Marui HI-CAPA 5.1 (Match Custom)
Reason I like - metal lower frame, fast double tap action for CQB, 900g overall weight. ! Q: will my flashlight mount on the rail out of the box? Does lightened slide take away from blowback feel/action

2 Tokyo Marui 1911 Custom Night Warrior Pistol
Reason I like: Its a custom version of the 1911 MEU which I love, and I can mount a flashlight for low light settings.
Q: Are replacement parts (slide ect) direct replacement with 1911MEU

All your opinions about these two guns would be greatly apreciated.
