Top Most Popular Replica Airgun Pistol Design Types

No Comments

This is not exclusive to Airguns since trends of Airguns are highly influenced by what type of Real Steel Pistols are popular to people. This is often based on what people see portrayed in movies and TV Series, and also promoted online. There is for sure an overlap in what is popular and it is hard to say what is influencing what? Is it the popularity of Pistols out in the real world that influences what we see being used in the movies and on TV? Or is it what we see in Movies and TV that influences our choices of pistols out in the real world? Perhaps it is a combination of both?

My list is based on my own personal experience and does not represent the entirety of types of Pistol designs available.

Umarex Glock 17 Gen 5 CO2 Blowback Pellet Pistol Table Top Review

No Comments

Type: Blowback CO2 Pellet Pistol.
Manufacturer: Distributed by Umarex.
Model: Glock 17 Gen 5.
Materials: Metal & Polymer.
Weight: 1.6 pounds (725 grams).
Barrel: 4.5 inches metal non-rifled.
Propulsion: CO2 x 1.
Action: Semi auto blowback, DOA trigger.
Ammunition Type: .177 caliber pellets.
Ammunition Capacity: 21 round drop out full size metal magazine.
FPS: Claimed 370.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Umarex Glock 17 Gen 5 CO2 Blowback Pellet Pistol is what I would describe as closer to a DOA (Double Action Only) trigger. The blowback action does retract the internal hammer/striker which does relieve some of the trigger pull but the trigger is also used to rotate the belt magazine which gives the trigger a kind of friction feel especially right at the end of the pull where the rotation occurs. That said it is not a terrible trigger like some other belt fed Airguns but it is certainly nutlike a standard SAO type Glock trigger.

Accuracy: At this point I have not shot the Umarex Glock 17 Gen 5 CO2 Blowback Pellet Pistol so I can only quote what Umarex is saying in terms of FP2 which is 370. That sounds a bit high for a pellet Airgun but they may be claiming this velocity using a light weight pellets perhaps made out of an alloy rather than lead? I guess we will find out the real world fps using lead pellets and also how accurate it will be when I do my Full Field Test Shooting Video.

Build Quality: The Umarex Glock 17 Gen 5 CO2 Blowback Pellet Pistol like most of the Umarex Glocks is very well made. I am thinking that Glock to allow Umarex to license Glock Pistols hammy have a quality control as part of this license agreement? Either way the Umarex Glock 17 Gen 5 CO2 Blowback Pellet Pistol is a solid and well built Airgun all around with quality material and very good fit and finish.

Realism: The Umarex Glock 17 Gen 5 CO2 Blowback Pellet Pistol in terms of realism as compared to a real steel Glock 19 Gen 5 for sure hits the mark in most categories. It is a bit lighter and you can not field strip it easily, there is also the not so much recessed barrel that is a bit of a giveaway but in terms of most other attributes the Umarex Glock 17 Gen 5 replicates a real Glock… Including the basic looks and feel, the metal slide and polymer frame, the full size drop out metal magazine, the blowback action and most of the working parts including the slide catch release, magazine release and trigger safety.

Pros:

  • Good weight and feel to it, build quality and fit and finish seem very good.

  • Really nice looking and full featured replica of the original Glock 17 Gen 5.

  • Fully Glock licensed via Umarex.

  • Easy to see white dot sights front and back.

  • Working trigger safety.

  • Accessory rail for adding a laser or tactical light.

  • Full size drop out metal magazine that holds the CO2 and .177 caliber pellets.

  • Nice high 21 round capacity.

  • Slide spring feels nice and heavy provide a decent blowback recoil effect.

  • Safety built into the serial number plate area keeps it well hidden.

  • Can see through ejection port when magazine is out.

  • Warning instruction are nice and discreet under trigger guard.

  • 370 claimed fps is good for a CO2 blowback pellet pistol.

Cons:

  • Barrel is not really all that recessed.

  • No way to easily field strip it.

  • Don’t like the clam shell packaging.

  • Trigger is a bit on the heavy side.

Comments:

I think many of us having been waiting for a pellet shooting version of the Glock from Umarex. I am a bit surprised they went with a belt fed version as belt fed magazines tend to be a bit on the heavy trigger pull side. Yes the Umarex Glock 17 Gen 5 CO2 Blowback Pellet Pistol has a stronger trigger pull as compared to a 4.5mm BB or 6mm Airsoft version of the same Umarex gun, as most of these Umarex based Glocks utilize a SAO trigger which is more comparable to a real steel Glock. On the plus side the Pellet version should be a bit more accurate, but we will see how this pans out when I do my comprehensive Field Test Shooting Video for the Umarex Glock 17 Gen 5 CO2 Blowback Pellet Pistol.
