Umarex Glock 17 Gen4 CO2 Reviews

I was having problems with my gen 4 , Glock 17 and once I install the new magazine , the Glock worked perfect. . Most of the problems are related to the magazine.

The price is too high.

no

This is one of the best Glocks I’ve experienced. 19x 19 gen 3 etc. I think about this with only the experience of bb 177 and 6 mm air soft and not the powder burner. This has all the advantages let’s not count shot count. Although it is in line with most full blowbacks. There have been complaints about the co2 loading system but once you understand it’s a no brainer just keep your feel for the angle of the threads. As accurate as most 177 bb full blowbacks. This is my favorite Glock so far. D. C.

Great quality, field strippable very positive response in the trigger mechanism. Remember this is a BB Gun. Comes close to the real thing but guys how know understand. Have fun enjoy the sport of Replica shooting.

The magazine functions well if you can get it loaded with bbs.

Make the follower 1/:32 longer. I had to make a tool to get the follower down to load the bbs!

I like the weight and feel of the magazine. The gun feels like a 9 mil.

Not very accurate, but fun to shoot. I use it to scare off squirrels from my bird feeder, but I can never hit them. They just go away temporarily, and then come back. The main feature I am reviewing is the slide that holds the spring depressed so you can load the BBs. It will not stay on the detent by itself. The end has rounded off, and I have to use an ice pick to load it. Very difficult to do, so I bought another magazine. Around $65 when all I needed was the little pin in front of the spring that keeps pressure on the BBs. If there is any way possible, I would like to purchase the pin so I could fix my original magazine. Thank you for the opportunity for me to communicate this information to you.

The loaded weight feels great.

The screw at the bottom where you refill your co2 should be made of a harder metal. I have had three of these now and all but one has gotten stripped out making the mag impossible to use for anything other then a paper weight.

When filling the co2 make sure to make it sung but not tight. Even with the proper tool I stripped two of my three because of this other then that keep plenty of co2 and bbs on hand once you start you won't want to stop.

Works as designed. Until it doesn't.

This was purchased as a replacement for magazine that broke after about six uses. A small portion of the locking tab on the pot metal follower sheared off. While attempting to load BBs the follower slipped and impacted the plastic feed lips and cracked them. Very shoddy material/ design of the follower locking tab.

I attemted to reach Umarex by email. No reply. This problem would be a very simple fix (one phillips screw and a solid pin removal) IF parts were available. I'm not holding my breath. The cost of this magazine is approximately 50% of the gun. Based on my experience, these mag parts should be considered consumable....and be readily available for repair.

Functions as expected. Crisp and reliable.

Nothing.

Have at least two magazines to enjoy the shooting experience without interruption.

Almost everything

Nothing

Well made. Very sturdy. These types of magazine make for a very nice trigger pull. My best shooting air pistols ( S&W MP40 blowback and H&K USP blowback have a very similar mag)

Nothing

While practicing quick mag changes I dropped the mag that came with the glock and it hit the only stone in the area. It broke the ears at the top of the mag. It is quite heavy, so you have to be careful. I get 75 really good shots per mag.

BACK-UP ...WORKS GREAT

NOTHING

LITTLE PRICEY BUT NICE TO HAVE
