I had one last year and to be honest having now today just bought the glock 17 gen 4 the quality difference is world's apart, the gen 4 is miles better build quality ,no tinny slide rattle ,feels like its built to a higher quality and has a slide release that actually works and is field strippable
I agree with Gary's comment below. It does seem to have a 'tinny' sound to it; but that may be the slide release mechanism. As per your norm, great review buddy.
Thank you for making the video. I felt it was a honest and informative description of the New Glock 17. Well made and well presented. Answered any and all of my questions and more. Well done. Thank you.
Love your videos iv bought 4 pistols including the px4 glock 19 m9 and the colt defender and I love them all thanks for the reviews they helped me alot keep up the good work mate david
Love you're realistic and honest reviews! Keep up the great work. I've got 2 of the Glock 19s and imo I prefer the size and feel of it over the 17. Also I'm not that big with blowback. It can waste co2 and the metal being pot/cast metal makes me wonder how much stress can it take from the blow back action? The plastic or polymer frame feels solid on the 19. Haven't felt the 17 as of yet.. but I love the weight and feel of the 19 so il probably stick with that.
Been waiting for these for ages. Really disappointed at the janky noises it makes when you're simply handling the gun. Sounds like the top slide is poorly fitted or something.
Yes. The airguns manufactured this way usually have quite loosely fitted slides. The slide's barrel hole must be bigger than the barrel so the slide could tilted up and be put on and off the pistol. No actual long rails inside the slide anywhere. Just the barrel through the front of the slide and then the blowback chamber unit has a short railing for holding down the back of the slide.. If the slide noise really annoys then you can always put thin pieces of tape on the internal blocks so the slide does not wigglecso much nor keep so much noise. Have heard that those field-stripping tabs do not work on this one. But the pin for the slide locking mechanism is apparently there between the accessory rail and the tabs.. I own the HK VP9 and the ISSC M22. Both of them use this kind of magazine type. Badass pistols both. Love them. The ISSC is a compact and looks like a G19, but with an external hammer. It has a one hell of a kick to it. It also has a very loose slide which keeps lots of noise - but the "bang" it has is louder.😁
Was planning on getting one since it’s $80 in Amazon right now, but after watching this video im100% sure my Glock 17 airsoft sounds better, and better quality made. Doesn’t sound like some DIY air gun (in my case airsoft)
In your opinion what do you think the best BB gun air pistol is on the market currently right now. When it comes to power, build quality, and overall form and function?
Hi MR AAR, what gun has the most realistic feel? Is it a gloc or a beretta? Witch of them is the best buy? I want a loud gun with great blowback and loudness!
look this is mostly a gun for power and accuracy but the gen 4 is nicely built sort of but it lacks accuracy and power and also the insides of the gen 4 aren't as pleasing as the Glock 17 i would prefer you get this model because of its stability accuracy and power i mean the slide isn't that bad but the gen 4 glitters but it isn't gold
Yes you can. It IS field strippable; the little dot in front of the fake field strippable switch is a little screw thing that you have to pop out with a small hex key and hammer then pull back the slide and lift up! :)
Great review Mr, I'm really on the fence with this one, wouldn't mind one but it just aint my priority right now. Looking at the back and side of you got me watering at the mouth though, don't worry Andy your safe lol, it's that sexy looking little Webley Nemesis I'm talking of, now that's one review I am really looking forward to. Merry Christmas to you and all the Drapers team ;-) Oh, and thanks for all the brilliant reviews you do.
The only models of these recently released umerex glocks worth buying is the 17 gen4 or the 19, i have handled the 17 gen3 and the duel ammo 17 and they feel cheap ...just my opinion (i cannot comment on the 22 as have not handled that as yet)
I ordered the G17 g3 pellet and the G17 g4 BB pistol. The gen4 BB pistol is more in realism and tech quality - but it did not really give me anything new. Shot as all the other alike BB pistols. The gen3 pellet pistol definitely feels more as just an airgun, with the more loose slide and lighter recoil spring. But I like way more to shoot it. - even though also the trigger is a whole another story in comparison to the gen4 BB pistol. The pellet pistol has got a bit more "bang" to it - while the gen4 BB shoots a bit sloppier.. Woulda wanted the gen3 BB pistol also. But I already have a couple of pistols with technically same build and magazine type. And from what hearing and reading.. it was a good choice for me to buy the H&K VP9 rather than wait for the G17 gen3. The VP9's slide seems to sit and fit way better - and shoots good too.
It IS field strippable; the little dot in front of the fake field strippable switch is a little screw thing that you have to pop out with a small hex key and hammer then pull back the slide and lift up! :)
I bought one of these today (Age 20) what are the existing laws for owning the Co2 air pistols? Will/Can I be prosecuted for owning one, and where am I allowed to fire one?
Assuming you're in the U.K. and not Scotland then no licence is needed and you can shoot at home or at a gun range, although some mainly indoor ranges don't like BB guns due to ricochets. Just don't carry it openly in public or trespass with it. 🙂
Gamo round lead BBs?? 😂😂😂 I tried out them once, back in the days. Were not exactly round and jammed my airpistol's magazine well.. Can't remember if I threw them away or do I still have the old tin somewhere..
They're usually slightly too big for stick style magazines. IIRC they're at or slightly bigger than 4.5mm whereas steel BB's are closer to 4.4mm. And of course being soft lead they tend to deform whilst being pushed up by the magazine follower.
Great vid really disapointed with the pistol tho i have the 19 that was originolly released i live it very firm and solid this seems like a cheap toy that they will charge way to much for
Good video! Nothing much new aside from the Glock looks.. But the grouping on the accuracy test was not bad. Surely a bit wide spread - but these are not of course match airguns either. And the grouping appeared quite centered on the target. 👍 So: good blowback, good fps and not bad on accuracy either. What more could you possibly want from a quite affordable airpistol? ... Heard that those tabs for field-stripping do not work on this one. But apparently the pin that locks the long slide movement is located between the accessory rail and the mock field-stripping tabs.. Those field-stripping tabs has only been working on the Tolmar/Air Venturi ISSC M22 airpistol (as far as I know).. Might be that the pin is best to push out through the right side of the pistol. At least on the Umarex HK VP9 the pin was star-shaped on the right side (securing the pin better than any all-round pin)..
Hola Andy tengo la Glock 17 Gen5 CO2 4'5 mm ser necesita lubricar el carro??? ya k en el modelo este no se puede desmontar ... Ojo si le sakas algún pasador seguro k sy pero el armero dice k no es recomendable el el CO2 una gota de aceite pelgunoil cada 3/4 bombonas Ala pregunta ....para el carro blowback lubricarias x exterior ? Para no desmontar..Y si podrías hacer un vídeo cómo lo harías gracias.
I lubricate my guns; silicone oil on top of CO2 bulb to protect the bulb seal and molybdenum on metal on metal and metal on plastic parts. Ideally you want to disassemble the gun to lubricate it with dry (low or no added oil) molybdenum paste.
The UX Glock 17 gen.4 steelBB pistol will have that magazine that is a common type in GBB airsoft pistols. CO2 inside underneath, Allen wrench, and field-strippable while at it. The usual. Info, including manual to it can be found at Umarex.com..

Copped one of these the other day and although it's not perfect, it's a load of fun and looks pretty cool so I'm happy overall
same broooooo it feels so good holding it too
Getting the Gen 4 and the 19X in a couple of months just because I wanna build a collection

I can't lie a little bummed out how the blowback one turned out, i'll have to wait for a sell on it to pick it up. I love my nonblowback glock 19!
your non blowback doesnt cock back right? i just got one and i thought it at least had a movable slide but it doesnt at all.
My g19 got stolen immediatly
It’s just very fast 🤨🤨🤨
I really wish they made a 19 blowback with full slide blowback instead of 1/2 or 3/4 of the real thing
@@mattleonard5268 And a magazine with the co2 housed inside and concealed like on the gen 4 17
Glack is one of my favorite gun to shoot I really love those guns. I wouldn't mind owning this gun
i have this glock and it is still working. Goat
Another great video Andy. Keep up the good work. Regards Rune
I just bought one tonight at bass pro shop down in rancho cordova pretty sure. It is an awesome gun. I was suprised how high powered it was.

The gen 4 doesn't have that sound, it's way better.
No it's supposed to make that noise. Just like the real firearm version
atleast the insides arent made out of pop metal like in the gen 4
It sounds like the slide is simply stamped sheet metal or something similar. Terribly disappointing sound.
Was planning on getting one since it’s $80 in Amazon right now, but after watching this video im100% sure my Glock 17 airsoft sounds better, and better quality made. Doesn’t sound like some DIY air gun (in my case airsoft)
Thanks for the quality
Is barrels swappable to convert to a bb?
Great video, now i gonna buy it.
When was this released? Also, thank you for reviewing.
is this a good gun, say compared to sig sauer p365
In your opinion what do you think the best BB gun air pistol is on the market currently right now. When it comes to power, build quality, and overall form and function?
Can you use the gold BBS or no
Hi MR AAR, what gun has the most realistic feel? Is it a gloc or a beretta? Witch of them is the best buy? I want a loud gun with great blowback and loudness!
Can u equip a sight????
is it powerful enough? and how many bbs last for a co2
I love my Glock I love your tutorials, there’s only 50 states in America not 52 Guam and Puerto Rico are not states .
Would be a pity if this version or the dual ammo version are not field strippable, clunky sounding but ill probably still get one

How to disassembly this gun? I need to clean and lubricate it but there is no information how to do that.
Waldek B you can’t
Yes you can. It IS field strippable; the little dot in front of the fake field strippable switch is a little screw thing that you have to pop out with a small hex key and hammer then pull back the slide and lift up! :)
@@devine532 you can
I'm a bit disappointed that you didn't include any footage of the pistol shooting.
drengskap ; ?? Did you watch the beginning my friend?
how do you put co2 capsules in?

How come my g17 came in a blister pack and not in that classy box?
Brought it in Europe?

Nice vid Andy , kinda like the gun as well .. what I do like a lot though is that fleece yer wearing , can you say where you got it from ?
Hi mark, it a “tog 24” fleece, I’ve had it years mate.
Do they make extended mags for these or naw?
Awesome review , where can I buy one in the UK though ? With delivery ? Any ideas ??
This is the gen 3 right?
Where do you buy these from?
Allen key looks like was invented for something more than replacing co2 capsule. Anyone knows it's full functionality?
besides the co2..it help with the safety and the slide for the bb's.
it's convenient, 1 tool that's attached to your keys.
I have the same gun where i can buy modifications for that extended clip , silencer...
do you know any site that has her magazine to sell ??
Nothing mentioned about the trigger? Or did I miss it?
a little over a 5 pound pull on the trigger
Can you do the same for the gen 4
Anyone know how to take the slide off?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
That’s what I’m trying to figure out too
@@PACKS707 There is no information how to take the slide off. Probably there is no simple way to clean this gun inside.
Same problem here, if you have a solution pls answer :)

Does it come with an adjustable hopup or no? Thanks.

AAR OnAir Andy’s Airgun Reviews Hi, Andy, it shoots kind low, right?
I bought one of these today (Age 20) what are the existing laws for owning the Co2 air pistols?
Will/Can I be prosecuted for owning one, and where am I allowed to fire one?
Nope all u need is a lisence and you’ll be fine make sure not to tak BB guns out in public some ppl may freak out and police can get involved
Bc of how realistic this gun is
Assuming you're in the U.K. and not Scotland then no licence is needed and you can shoot at home or at a gun range, although some mainly indoor ranges don't like BB guns due to ricochets. Just don't carry it openly in public or trespass with it. 🙂
Hmm, my umarex Glock 17 gen 3 doesnt have the 9x19 on the slide like a real one
The airsoft ones do
same, my co2 doesnt display that
How much are they
link to website?
Hey Andy, how did you remove the orange tip at the end? I havent brought this gun yet so I was wondering how easy it is to do?
if you haven't figured it out yet..
there is no orange tip
Don't actually need 'em in the UK & Europe apparently
Gamo round lead BBs?? 😂😂😂
I tried out them once, back in the days. Were not exactly round and jammed my airpistol's magazine well.. Can't remember if I threw them away or do I still have the old tin somewhere..

This is probably a stupid question but is it possible to put a real glock 17 slide on it
No.
Don't like the pistol but still great review as always. Nice 1 Andy
52 states?
What’s that tan gun in the back of the intro
excuse me i cant choose out of these two-Glock 19 or this one.Whitch is better
52 states in the U.S?
I’ve been waitin fo a good min but I’m finna ask my momma to cop it fo me

U have a safety lock for it
God that sounds tinny.
Agreed - it sounds like the Beretta APX I have, which looks great but sounds crap. These Glock replicas haven't impressed me so far.
I’m hella late but really what you gonna expect from the sound of the video u just gotta use it in real life
Good video!

no the trigger safety is shaped wrong, also Glocks don't have a safety, also why does the barrel not tilt up when the slide is racked
It's not a floating barrel, its fixed.
How about a video comparing this model with the Gen 4 G17?
The action of the slide sounds awful, cheap even btw.
I hope mine cancels in time and I get my money back 😂 that rattle is disgusting
They must not teach overseas folks how to properly hold a gun lol still a good vid
slide sound is horrible, and slide dimension is way too big, dont look like a real glock
slide dimension is the same
We wanted GBB , BUT not the cheesey crappy half BB like this.
