- I do a quick review of the Sig M17 Proforce airsoft gun compared to the P320 firearm version. The M17 is the military version of the P320 and Sig has made its own airsoft version of the pistol.
All items were cleared prior to filming. Remember always follow the rules of firearms safety.
Thank you so much for the review!! My dad has an M17 P320 gun and he's getting me the airsoft version. Love your channel and I was your 15th sub btw. Stay safe!!
Thanks, I appreciate the view and hope it helped.
@@lentztu it did! Thanks!
Thanks for this. Was debating about getting this, but I saw mixed reviews (mostly from people running it in airsoft matches). I don't have any plans on using this in matches, it would be just for extra training to save cost on live ammunition, so this review is perfect.
Try it for cqb practice training. Would be great for that, although no penetration capabilities & shrapnel but the gist
I did the same thing and purchased the ProForce M18 model for dry fire training, to mimic my P320 Compact. I installed a LaserAmmo laser barrel (Red laser) suited for 9mm, and used it in conjunction with the Mantis Laser Academy training setup. Loved it for a few seconds with the Green gas option, then the ProForce would get stuck in full auto, or multiple shots with each trigger pull. Magazine was cold from use, after only about 2 fills, and started to act up. Took it apart to see if maybe it wasn't greased or lubricated from the factory. Added grease to the slidepoints, and silicon oil to particular springs, and trigger mechanism. Still continued to get stuck in an auto-type shot style compared to individual trigger pulls. Would take anyone's advice from the airsoft world how to stop the multiple shots and auto issue.
Airsoft pistols only do that if a sear breaks unfortunately; you probably got a lemon. VFC (OEM of these guns) is really good for GBB rifles but their pistols pale in comparison in terms of quality, so ymmv
I just got my M17 Proforce today. This thing is awesome to train with for the price. Haven’t ran into any issues yet. Last round hold open works. Was able to get around 3 mags full with one fill(green gas). I keep seeing bad reviews, but the one I have is solid. It came with the optic installed. Not the greatest red dot, but it works.
Hey! How's the pistol holding up now ? I'm thinking of purchasing one !
@@Sievert31 I replaced it with an M18 and it’s been running perfect. I also put a drop of oil every time I use my mags on all the rubber parts that make contact with the gun.
@@Sievert31 I had issues with the mags not cycling and locking back. Ended up getting a M18 and had better luck with it.
@@86steventura awesome and how long you've had the m18? I'll instead switch my focus to that one as well 👍
@@Sievert31 I got it about 9 months ago. I returned my M17 after a couple weeks of owning it.
Yo, the real steal one you got is the M18 version. Same shit and all, just a shorter barrel. I own the airsoft M18 version and I'm getting the airsoft mcx soon too
I have a Sig M-18 airsoft. I love it.
You can actually get a real steel slide and barrel for it and also install a real spring too. I have them on mine and it is exactly the same weight and feel now
But can it shoot real 9mm?
Can the real mag fit the airsoft?
@@Minutes-Mils obviously not
Does the magazine fit?
Thank you!
Failure drills are good to run with airsoft guns, do be aware, i run one competitivly and they do have some tech issues
Finally ran into issues with it not cycling. The green gas port on top of the mag is damaged and doesn’t have a good seal with the slide now. When the mag is filled with gas, it still doesn’t cycle because of that reason. I put electrical tape to fill in the gap on the seal and it works now. Still wait on a response and if they will be replacing the mag.
They need to make those top gaskets on the mags replaceable if they haven’t already. Or sell them
If it’s a wear item. Was able to get about 10 mags full before I started to notice problems.
how long have you had it for?
@@Kpournaras222 I had it for about a week when this happened. I would recommend oiling the top mag gasket where it makes contact with the slide/nozzle. I ended up trading it in and got a M18. No issues yet.
@@86steventura alright thanks cause I'm thinking of getting it as my first airsoft pistol
@@Kpournaras222 I got a umarex Glock 19x after I got my replacement M18. I sort of like that better. I wish I could say good things about it, but it’s not the greatest. I put a holosun optic on it and a RMR optic plate…it would always rise on the front. Had loctite on the rear screws also.
Awesome review
Is the outer Barrel made of metal?
This gun has a trigger reset,but it is very light.
Can the orange tip come off
Yes
It’s lighter because of the different parts and ammo
Only issue with this is the slide weight for the real firearm had the dot on it while the airsoft did not. Still though, interesting review
True statement. Thanks for watching!
Where u get the flashlight on the m17?
Can you use a sig real sig grip module on it
Really curious to know if i could put the wilson combat or p80 grip module on this Airsoft version??
I was going to say no, but I just checked and the Prosoft does have a removable FCU. I tried swapping FCUs between the two frames but they won’t fit in each other. I’m wondering if that’s more because of the manual safety than the frames themselves. So it might work, but no guarantee. The 320 FCU was tight in the Prosoft frame. When looking at the frames alone, I can’t even tell the difference (other than color and size).
Crazy gun👍
What's the attachment on the airsoft m17?
That is a Streamlight TL-1. Its a pretty decent weapons light and easy enough to find holsters for it.
are the frame interchangeable?
no dog lmao
I subscribe... Hehehehehe
*Glock is better than the Sieg shit!*
Not.
its just preference
