Description
Dominate the field with the pistol that redefined “high-speed.” The E&C Hi-Capa 5.1 TTI is a stunning tribute to the world-renowned Taran Tactical Innovations design. Featuring the iconic bronze-style barrel, aggressive slide porting, and an oversized magwell, this gas blowback pistol is built for rapid target acquisition and buttery-smooth reloads. If you want the performance of a competition racer with the rugged reliability of a skirmish-ready sidearm, this is your new primary choice for CQB.
Key Features & Performance
- TTI Licensed-Style Externals – CNC-finished slide with weight-reducing ports and authentic-style stippled grip for maximum control.
- High-Capacity Double-Stack Magazine – Holds 28-30 rounds, giving you a significant firepower advantage over standard 1911 models.
- Flared Magwell – Drastically speeds up your reload times, essential for high-pressure transitions during a skirmish.
- Fiber Optic Front Sight – Picks up ambient light for a bright, easy-to-track aiming point in low-light urban environments.
- Hard-Kicking Blowback – Tuned for a crisp, snappy cycle that resets the trigger almost instantly for rapid follow-up shots.
The “Pro” Take
E&C has really stepped up their game with the tolerances on this Hi-Capa. Unlike some “budget” Hicapas that feel rattly, this TTI model feels incredibly solid in the hand. The trigger pull is short and resets with a very tactile “click,” which is exactly what you want when you’re double-tapping targets in a doorway. The 5.1 barrel length provides the perfect balance between accuracy at range and manoeuvrability in tight corners. It is also highly compatible with aftermarket TM-spec parts, making it a great base for those who eventually want to “gucci-up” their internals even further.
UK Spec & Site Performance
In the UK, gas pistols are at the mercy of our unpredictable weather. This E&C model is designed to run efficiently on Green Gas (like Nuprol 2.0) during the spring and summer, typically clocking in at 300-320 FPS on a 0.20g BB. For the colder months at sites like The Grange or The Department CQB, you might want to switch to a higher-pressure Red Gas to maintain that snappy cycle. Because it?s a Hi-Capa, it fits most “Universal” hardshell holsters or dedicated TTI 5.1 kydex rigs. Whether you are clearing rooms at Halo Mill or using it as a backup for a sniper role in the Midlands woodland, its consistency is top-tier for its price point.
Friendly FAQ
Is this UKARA required?
Yes, this is a Realistic Imitation Firearm (RIF). You must have a valid UKARA or similar defence to purchase it in its original black finish. If you are new to the sport, we can provide a “Two-Tone” service (painting the slide a bright colour) to make it legal for non-defence holders.
Can I use CO2 magazines?
While the nozzle is reinforced, we recommend sticking to high-quality Green Gas magazines for longevity. E&C and most Tokyo Marui-compatible Green Gas mags will fit and function perfectly.
Is the barrel threaded for a tracer?
Most E&C TTI models come with an 11mm internal thread (CW) inside the outer barrel. You will usually need a small 11mm-to-14mm CCW adapter to fit standard tracer units like the Acetech Brighter C.
How do I adjust the Hop-Up?
You will need to field-strip the pistol by removing the slide. The Hop-Up adjustment wheel is located on the side of the inner barrel assembly, allowing you to fine-tune your lift for 0.25g or 0.28g BBs.
