Glock 17 Gen. 3 BB Pistol

This gun is a big disappointment, first of all the gun is milled to big around the barrel causing it to jiggle and be loose making a lot of noise . Second the trigger is the worst I’ve ever pulled.third is the mag is very hard to load. As I own many airguns. I think Glock would be very disappointed in this. I have heard the gen4 is better .But I would go with the beretta instead, or the EAA tango 1911.

Pros
It shoots and mag works .

Cons
Magazine is a real pain to load , trigger is horrible. And the slide jiggles like a piece of junk.

Nice to have a blowback version over the Glock 19. Blowback not full and does not lock back after last shot, and bit clanky sounding but a move in the right direction so giving a 5. I look forward to a Gen 4 with full blowback and perhaps pellet. Safety in poor location if mounting torch or laser to under rail....which requires removal. Overall I am happy with this addition to my collection.

Pros
Great replica of real Glock 17. Good weight. Easy to see white dot sights and like full drop out mag.

Cons
Not full blowback and clanky sounding. Easy to see sights but not adjustable. Poor location for safety if utilizing rail.

As another reviewer pointed out, the Glock 19 pistol is superior overall but of course doesn't offer blowback action. I expected a lot more given the price of this pistol and from a relativity standpoint, at $19.95, my Daisy Powerline 426 is a much better gun! in short, all things considered, I regret purchasing this...

Pros
I did find it to be fairly accurate and it does look like the real thing...

Cons
The safety is ridiculous, trigger pull horrible (pointed out by another reviewer) and on my pistol, the slide "rattles" when I move the gun around so it feels cheap and not well made...

Very popular and can be backorder often. I have the Glock 19 version which is not a blowback model. This is the slightly larger Glock 17. It feels very close to the actual Glock it's modeled on. I like how they kept the safety lettering to the bottom facing side. I don't really like the location of the safety on the bottom of the frame facing down. It's not as easy as the safety on the trigger for the Glock 19. That safety has issues of its' own. I really like the full size CO2 magazine, when extra mags come available I'll pick up a few extra. The blowback is very real feeling and shoots quite straight out to 30 feet. Outside that distance winds made beyond 50 feet more luck than skill. Good use of CO2 allows for at least 2 fills of the magazine. This was outdoors on a warmish day in February (40's F). Fit and finish is quite nice. Feels good in your hand. Makes a fun plinker. More fun with extra magazines to shoot up water jugs. Will be interesting to see if they ever come out with the Glock 18C full auto blowback. I like firing both this the 17 and 19. Friends found the 19 easier to shoot first time and the 17 just a little bit more fun because of the blowback feature.

Pros
Blowback action full size magazine with CO2 safety lettering on bottom facing side very close in weight to real efficient use of CO2

Cons
safety in odd location safety not as easy to manipulate as of 2/18/19 no extra mags available

If you really, really want realism this gun does it, however the non blowback 19 model is far superior in terms of performance

Pros
Slide locks back and keeps you from wasting gas when its empty. On other websites I keep reading that the plastic parts are flimsy - but they are not, it feels just as solid as the real Glock I carry at work. Magazine is about the same size & weight as the real thing, detail & design are very good.

Cons
Fixed sights are WAY off. Significantly less accurate than the Glock 19 non blowback version Trigger is horrible, LONG rough grinding take up (oddly when there is no gas in it the trigger is fine) CO2 lasts about half as long as it the in the Glock 19. I expected less, but its a lot less. And it stops functioning when there is still a good bit of gas left.

This gun is great has an amazing power and sound is really loud, kicks really good.

Pros
Has a metal slide and fully blowback action, kicks hard, has pretty good fixed sights and has some weight to it.

Cons
Cannot be field strip and has no extra mags
