WE 3.8 or 5.1?

I'm having difficulty deciding between a Baby Hi Cappa or the 5.1. I was originally set on the 3.8 because I like the small size. But it will ultimately come down to performance. For those of you who have tried both...how do they compare?

I haven't try the Baby hi-cap yet, but I can vouch for the WE hi-cap 5.1. It's absolutely a gaming gun. You won't regret to buy it but I just don't like hi-cap because it's just too heavy for me to carry around with it. WE 1911 classic is very good looking ether but due to most breaking issue part on WE 1911 classic, I would prefer hi-cap for gaming gun.

Go for the 5.1 you will do wonders on the field with it, 3.8 you will do okay but you may have some regret since you will notice your shots don't go as far.

It would be a really good size for me. But from what I've seen it gets shit reviews.

yeah trust the reviews mate, you won't reget it, 5.1 is not that big either, it feels like a regular pistol.

If you are looking for the ergonomic feel then as the other person posted earlier the non hi-capas feel slim and tight

Got a WE 3.8 Type 10 not long after they were produced, it was a great gun- sold it because I needed tuition money, and that was 2 1/2 years ago. It's still kicking in its new owner's hands, the only easily-remediable problem was that the front sight came off fairly easily.

I've had my 3.8 for ages. I love the compact size and find it fires just as well as the larger ones.

Was going for the WE 3.8 but got a good deal on a TM 5.1 Still enjoy it, good kick, size is ok for me, but as BtAP mentionned, the front sight does come off easily. WE is also a good choice, as they are TM-compatible for mags and some parts, and less $$.
