4.3 performance wise is ever so slighty better. But range and grin factor, and for me the look, the 5.1 is better than the 4.3.
The 5.1 is the standard length, the 4.3 the shorter one, and the 3.8 the baby one.
Accuracy, performance etc there isn't much in it at all. The only parts that differ between the 5.1 and 4.3 is the inner barrel, outer barrel, and slide. And that's it.
Either one is a terrific bet. Check out the hi capa thread in the pictures of guns to see what you can do with them!

wait hold on a 4.3 is better than a 5.1!? how its exactly the same internally! ..i even think stock inner barrel length is the same for both as well come to think of it..
but yeah go with whatever one will suit you best in terms of size because hi capas you can do a multitude of things to whatever model you decide
..but 5.1 is better
:p

The 4.3 is slightly better though, and I own a 5.1. Its got a crisper and faster cycle, its easier to point and has the advantage of being slightly smaller.
section 24 of the 1968 Act
Supplying imitation firearms to minors
1)It is an offence for a person under the age of eighteen to purchase an imitation firearm
2)It is an offence to sell an imitation firearm to a person under the age of eighteen.

the only reason it would have a crisper cycle is because there is less slide to actually move which makes sense, hence why the strike warrior or whatever its called the new TM pistol has a insane cyclic rate because its a detonics on steroids.
5.1's though once properly done up same with 4.3s you wont..ever tell the difference...to be honest you cant with a stock 5.1 and 4.3 anyway..slight difference in a ideal environment anyway

According to Just Pistols, the only GBB reviews I totally trust, the 5.1 has a very quick but weak feeling cycle, whilst the 4.3 is slightly slower and kicks more.

I like just pistols reviews, however because he is collector I feel he has quite different standards in what he considers good than skirmishers would....

Yeah that's true, but as I'm a collector over a skirmisher I agree with what he opinionates on.

Nope! The 4.3 has a slightly shorter inner barrel.
The 4.3 also has slightly better gas efficiency due to the shorter and lighter slide. But it's minimal at best

Re: Tm hi capa's?
i forget where the 5.1 barrel ends..bearing in mind the only one i remember owning was a longer 6.01 TB :/ whoops lol
Yeah the whole slide thing, thats so subject to change and you wont notice it anyway or barely and getting the right conditions to test it.. inconsistency at best.
i prefer the 5.1 dunno why..i feel you can do more to it? even though in reality 4.3..5.1..you can do whatever the hell you want to it..hell ..even make it a 6.something
