The original Glock 17 has served with distinction as a service pistol for both the British military and numerous police forces worldwide, earning its reputation for reliability and durability. Now, Umarex offers airgun enthusiasts an opportunity to experience that same legendary design in an officially licensed replica: the Glock G17 Gen5 CO2 powered blowback action .177 caliber pellet pistol.
This model faithfully replicates the renowned ergonomics of its firearm counterpart. It features enhanced grip texturing that ensures comfort and control during use. The metal slide moves with each shot, providing a realistic shooting experience akin to using a live-fire weapon. Fixed sights allow for steady aiming, while a manual safety adds an extra layer of security.
What sets this airgun apart is its innovative belt-fed magazine system which supports authentic blowback action powered by economical 12 gram CO2 cartridges. Each component reflects the latest in both airgun technology and Glock's distinctive GEN 5 slide and frame characteristics.
In essence, this is not merely a pellet gun; it embodies the spirit of precision engineering combined with practical functionality—a fitting tribute to one of history’s most iconic handguns.
