Being an American with a real glock (glock 19) I can say this is VERY realistic compared to a lot of other airsoft pistols
If a Glock is you're fav pistol like me that means you are a true American
I have both this airgun as well as a real glock 17 gen 4 and I can truthfully say that this is a very faithful replica
burgerboy does some shit
Do you reckon it will be tough enough to use for home practise?
@@Parfashrek i would say yes i have this BB gun and my real glock 17 service pistol i use the bb gun for when i cant make it to the range and its held up very well (it has been dropped many times)
Is it heavy enough to feel strong like my we tech glock 17
Careful don't mix them up
Does it have a removable rear sight?
Just purchased one . The mag now comes with a plate /cover on the mag base. Ontario, Canada.
Where did you purchase the one with the mag base?
@@jordancl07 Airgun Source Canada. (AGS Canada) Peterborough, Ont
That's awesome, I'll look for that since I'm in Burlington!
MyOutdoorTrails when you cock the gun back and put the mag in does it sound like the real thing?
MarcusTV obviously not u donut 😂😂😂
Just got mine! Few things to point out:
Slide and barrel are aluminium but are finished in a dark grey replicating a steel slide. No rattle or barrel movement. Recoil is strong but accuracy isnt the greatest although there is a hop up adjuster. The look and finish is just on another level compared to every glock ive had in the past including asg, marui, we tech and vfc. My advice is GET ONE and mine did come with a glock base plate uk.
Have you had any problems with yours???? Mine lodges bbs in the barrel.... you have to watch out for that, the slide also locked solid during reasembly after stripping, force was needed to free it ( I was horrified !!! ) and finally the threaded plug for locking the co2 cartridge is a pig to thread on..... it has trouble catching its thread !!!! Nearly forgot.... it shoots really low. I love the gun and it does shoot but I know that it has these problems !!!
That's a fabulous looking gun, I am looking to get one for my grandson.. lots of love, Frank!!
Damn wish my family approved of this. I’m from the EU😔
@@vibin4092 sneak it in, bud
@@patrickrazvan2530 yeah and if they catch you just drop out on them
Man you a cool ass grandpa ngl
you’re a cool ass grandpa haha
I love mine so much, if you are on the fence about getting this, I highly recommend just get it. It took me a while because I was torn in between on the Springfield XDM and this Glock 17 Gen 4. Based on all the research I’ve done those are by far in my opinion the most realistic replicas up to dates from field striping to the way they operate. So I decide to just get both. But I love my Glock!
avoid the xdm, even the airsoft versions
THANK YOU - after days if videos, finally.. a guy says “this one is the best” and thats all i wanted to hear. Thanks again.
No worries - enjoy! James
Hello from New York mate ! Your reviews are excellent ! To the point and don't drag on. Great info and a pleasure to watch. Keep em coming, and shoot on buddy !
thanks man i was in the school trip and see what of my guns was useful for the trip, THANKS U!!!
I've just ordered my gen 4 on the strength of this review. Thanks for posting!
Thanks - enjoy!
Just purchased one tonight online (yet to collect it) after your review. Thanks for your work, very good indeed. Seen a few reviews but non show the stripping; good work dude.
Just got mine today, it fits perfectly in my Recover Tactical 20/20 Glock stabilizer brace, going to try it in my MCK Micro Roni but I think it will work.
Won’t fit in mine. To tight🤷♂️
Best review on the replica so far.
Thanks, appreciated!
Spot on vid., good demonstration, you tell it well....... thanks for the info. 😊
Thanks! Appreciated.
Great review mate thanks. Just got one myself
Enjoy!
I just got one today. Very decent handgun. I’ve always wanted a glock, but I will always cherish my M1911.
1911 and Glock 17 are my favourite pistols
1911s are hella cool full of history, ive shot glocks and 1911s i got respect for both but 1911 takes it for me
sick review! That last POV part:D
Thanks!
Good video keep up the good work 👍🏻👍🏻
Great work on video mate greetings from spain
Thanks! Enjoy the sun! James
Wish they where in stock ANYWHERE, would love to upgrade from my current gen 3
they are all on stock herexd
like your channel, question do you know where I can get the feeding lip for the magazine. Can't find them anywhere it's seems this is one of the downsides of the Umarex Glock
Nice no-nonsense review, i purchased one to see me through the lock down :)
thanks! enjoy!
Good vid D had to leave a like
I'm more of a 1911 enthusiast and have several variations, but do own a G19X, it's a great C02 pistol (Not a fan of the Cayote color), Would you recommend owning a G17 gen 4 air pistol, is it a better version of the G19x my friend?
Very good review! Thank you! Quick question. The manual mentions about using some specific rod to remove jams. Do you know what rod and how to do it? Also, it says about putting a drop of oils in the co2 compartment. Which oil?
pelgun oil
great review, just bought one
Enjoy!
Nice presentation. I've got a real one of these and my wife bought a .177 cal pellet Version of it.
We also have a RONI-KIT and both guns are suitable with it. I borrow the Airgun now and again from my wife to train cheaper at the range.
The feel of both weapons is identical and it is simply fun to shoot this air pistol. For me, a clear recommendation to buy. Thanks for sharing and greetings from Cuxhaven on the German North Sea shore.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼😁
Hallo! Thats interesting to hear, i found a roni kit locally here but didnt know if it would fit! May have to buy it now 😉 happy shooting in germany, a beautiful country - not been across for a couple of years now. All the best, james
@@ReplicaReviews If your gun is a GEN4 it'll fit. So far I know that only the Glock GEN1 and 5 are not compatible to the Roni-kit. All others do and the Airgun is a model GEN4. Thanks for the reply, Mate. Greetings from northern Germany.👍🏼😁
Thanks for the video! The magazine now has a Glock logo cover on the base. Awesome safety practice shooter.
Hey, nice video! Is the recoil impressive?
Love the look of this
Mine came with a mag co2 cover. A lot of review videos do. I think you got a used or misplaced gun. I’m not sure though. Great video! Have a wonderful day!
I just bought the KWC k17 4.5mm bb version. Apparently KWC make and distribute a lot of their pistols to companies like Umarex who just re-brand them with official licensing and sell them for more. I would assume my KWC K17 is pretty much exactly the same gun as this Umarex gen 4 apart from a different looking pistol grip.
Sounds like a plus to me. I've only had positive experiences with replicas manufactured by KWC
You can also take a trip to Poland if you wanted to shoot a real 9mm one at one of the ranges here. I just did a few days ago, not sure which gen it was but it was a cool experience shooting the real thing.
poland is high on my list of countries to visit for shooting! i had planned to come across last year.... but something happened.... and we all got locked down! james
I bought Two I’ll do a CZcams video on them to see if they’re good
The uk version has not base plate for that specific model but it has one in Canada
Great video think I might buy it
thanks!
Pop over to NI and shoot handguns. A lot closer to Switzerland and it is in the UK
I’ve had a few people mention NI.... not somewhere i’ve ventured before!
I'm off to malaga for a shooting course next year at their full bore pistol range although I've had lots of experience with centre fire pistols I still have to complete their safety course, really looking forward to it.
ReplicaReviews Check out NITSA in NI. They have a huge selection of Glocks, including Glock 17 Gen 5.
I've been wanting to get into air guns and more specifically co2 and faithful replicas. Had the chance to shoot one of these in the US. I was wondering were I could purchase one of these in the UK? Both myself and my wife have missed the shooting we used to do in our younger years any advice on how to obtain one in the UK would be very helpful. We are new to the channel and your content and videos are excellent. Keep up the great work.
These things are actually loud asf when ur in person, the audio always cuts quiet when they fire on video because it blows out the microphone due to volume.
It echos like crazy
The green gas version has a plate on the bottom, but not the co2
Nice review , im defo getting one .
Are you a Swiss citizen ?
Or is it legal for anyone to go and shoot guns at a shooting range .
Does anyone has a problem with trigger safety? Mine lost its tension after a couple of days of just pulling the trigger. It no longer works, it just sits leveled with the trigger itself. Tried to disassemble the gun, but didn't find any tension spring that is connected to the trigger safety.
great replica is it more heavy than like we tec glock 17?
Best review ever
Thanks, appreciated!
Been waiting ages for mine
It’ll be worth the wait!
ReplicaReviews hopefully 😂
Just got mine and it came with a mag plate 👍
I'll get mine around friday next week. This is too the closest i can get in my country also.
Enjoy!
Federico Olivares how is the gun
It looks like the slide is halfway back with the magazine holdopen catch?
Oh nvm, it's the same on the real one.
Hi … do all the block 17 bb pistols have blow back … great video … David
So this uses steel bullets right? But does it also take plastic bbs or is It too strong for those?
Just received a glock gen 4 umarex which has base plate cover
I am looking into getting one of these, but I have a few questions. First, what is the optimal method for removing the orange tip? also, is the barrel threaded?
Good review .. I’m looking to buy one myself but not sure where from? Does anyone know what website I should get it from.
Mine came with a bottom plate, I was shocked, but Happy
Is the Umarex/VFC Glock 17 Gen 4 60mm airsoft gas version more accurate and reliable than this BB Co2 version?
This air soft gun is just amazing
It's an airgun. Not airsoft
@@knifecraze2.087 It's also available in 6mm (airsoft)
good review
Thanks!
After 2 minutes into this video didnt realize it was a review for a airsoft gun. Recently purchased a real glock 17 9mm and wanted to watch a review for it. 😆 🤣 😂 😹 Greetings from El Paso, Texas
Did the British accent not give the game away? 😂 greetings!
LOL , love this xD I do agree of all my dozen replica's this is the one that hits all the requirements hehe
My purchase (one for gift & one for myself) shot about 3-2" low, consistently. I'm on my 4th because of production defects - low shooting, feed ramp/BB loader X2. Have not finished my first purchase of BBs (same as the ones you shoot here). Parts are not available. Umarex insists I pay for shipping defective unit to their facility. Not really happy. Wish they were not plagued by defects and bad QC.
need glock 43 model and 23 model to bb gun. but my country not have anywere.and taurus-G3 and S/W shield models. interesting
Can it be adapted to shoot with the Surefire Laser system? If so, are they available already to go?
I need to get my hand on this bb gun! It's the same replica as the glock 17 9mm that I'm using for my pc832 class and I suck at shooting. 🤣 I need to keep practicing 😩
Yep on the base plate
Good job
Can you elaborate on your gen one in Switzerland and how you own it where you keep it being a UK citizen please ? I’d love to do the same but it looks like you have to live in Switzerland ? Are you a part of a club where you keep the gen 1 ? Thanks
How loud is it? And do you have any recomendations for loud full metal co2 pistol?
I was close to getting this until I found out it was half blowback. The webpage on every sight it's on didn't say this.
This is the 1.3 j version, does this one also take GBB magazines
Mine came with a base plate mate..
Bought it today, no hop-up screw though???
All these damn videos of this gun .... But no videos of how to keep the bb latch down
Question do you have 4,5mm bb or 6mm bb Glock 17 Gen 4? And i think that there are only metal/steel bb's for 4,5mm and plastic for 6mm bb's? And which one is better for me the 6mm or 4,5mm version Glock 17 Gen 4 i am mostly playing free for all with my friends and i dont want that my friends get really hurt
This is The best review!!!! I want one now, can I have the link Or store name?
hello James i am looking to buy this airsoft gun and i was wondering what bbs this takes
Hi, how many balls can I shoot with one CO2 cartrige? Approximatelly. Nice review, Thanks
I just ordered mine , looking forward to it , amazing gun , my friend has one and man the feel is crazy lol
Enjoy!
Terrance Sutherland what website is it that you bought it from?
Whats the website
Hi James, do you actually own the Glock in Switzerland or hire it? I miss all my handguns and semi auto rifles, lucky enough to have been an owner way back in the 80's.
Iv'e recommended this a ton of times but join a club in NI. Iv'e been out there twice already this year (going since 2017) and I'll be off again sometime before Christmas. About £150 a trip. I sign myself in as a full club member, ask for what I fancy/is available (Glock 19 last time), and as much ammo as I can afford/likely to shoot. Find someone to RO you and you're away. I know it's not as cool as actually owning your own one but you'd be amazed at how much it takes the sting out of our crappy mainland laws - it eventually becomes a little bit routine, still cool, but no big deal. As per the rest of the UK; NI can only own semi-auto rifles in .22, but again the selection of handguns is in a different universe to the mainland, pretty much anything that's available in America.
i've had a few people mention NI but i've not really had much luck finding out any solid info.... would certainly be closer and cheaper by the looks of it to the current set up - travelling to switzerland.... james
michael wayne that’s terrible but seems to be the story everywhere after they punish good law abiding men. We’re holding em off the best we can in the states...they’re trying their hardest, but I have a feeling it will not end well for them...
Did this pistol come with an orange too? Of so how is it removed? One of the reasons I'm asking is because I want an actual replica down to the T's
Does it still go back together with out that silver little barrel inside of it? I wanna give one to my little brother but I don’t want it to be able to shoot and I don’t wanna test it and end up breaking it some lmk if it will still go back together with out that silver little barrel
Hello my came with a loose barrel that slides back and forward when cocking it back, is that something that should happen?
Can you put supressor
Hello ,great vid btw ,I think I can finally justify buying one of these ,my misses thinks I'm a child but who cares. I had a glock from a different brand and it was overall shit ,many parts broke, has anything broke on yours so far? Apparently the hammer spring can snap do you know if there's parts you can actually find for this? Cheers.
Just to confirm the latest stock of these now come with the glock base plate on the mag (uk) also spare mags with the base plate are availibile to buy separate for existing owners they are £55 uk tho, but this rounds off what is the best of the umerex glock range in 4.5mm.
Now thats cool! May have to invest in one! Thanks for the update! James
Is it metal build and weight like my real glocks?
Great review, would this work ok with dust devils or copper coated lead BBs?
i've not tried with either: BUT - providing the quality of the BB is decent, i really can't see why it wouldn't.
Many thanks
Umarex glock 17 gen 4 vs umarex glock 17 gen 5 which is better ? (gbb version)
Hey buddy, i was wondering if this is the 4,5mm or the 6mm version of the Umarex Glock 17 Gen 4? Do you know if there are any differences other than the ammo?
4.5mm steel BB gun. The 6mm is the airsoft plastic BB, and would require an airsoft permit in order to buy the Black/Black. Otherwise you'd have the twin colour.
Can I get an extended clip for this gun and all that?
i have a orange tip gun so i cant see how this can help me
What bullets does it take and how do i order them aswell as the gas?
My sear is broken for this and I dont know how to fix it, all of the videos dont work
Thank you, man, awesome review. I was pondering getting one of these and after your video I'm pretty much decided. Shame we can't have the real thing in Ukraine, either.
Real one would come in handy rn
just got mine yesterday and crosthreded the co2 screw place hahaha im gonna switch to green gas
Is this gun durable, assuming that you oil it etc. If I pay 230€ I want it to last.
Does anyone know if you can swap the slide for a modded one on this version? Also, is the barrel threaded so you can put barrel attachments?
can you remove the rear sights ?
My uncle let me hold his Glock 17, all I wanted to do was hold it and pull the slide I don’t know why it’s so satisfying, I’m going to get one of these and actually use it though nice review
enjoy!
How about mag release button？ is it firmer than we ？
They need to do this with g42
They certainly do!
dose the gen 5 magazine fit on gen4? and I have gas g17 gen4 can I buy co2 magazine to gas gun?
Has it got a rifled barrel and will it shoot pellets ??
