This is like Top Gear for air guns ! Accents make it better
I'd love that! James may would be sitting in the corner, cup of tea and a newspaper in his hands and a muzzleloader on his lap while he's ranting about all these uncontrollable beasts they call teenagers these days with their fancy new 1911's and shoulderstocked lugers
Very true
Damn good description
Yeah that rattling on the Gen 5 would drive me mad.
The Backyard Airgunner me2
The gen 4 to me is better than the gen 5.
@@tristanphillips3639 yeah for sure.
prices seem to indicate the same.
@@Frietpan and plus the gen 5 has that weird magazine
@@tristanphillips3639 there's nothing weird about the Gen 5 magazine they went back to the Gen 3 magazine. Which is easier to load CO2 and BB's. The Gen 4 is only more realistic but not as functional.
Just picked up another Gen4 today and pleased to confirm the magazine now has the GLOCK logo base plate.
Neil Dobson great!
The epic series concludes!
can u use green gas in it? im new to air guns please help
Axiis ZA It is CO2 only.
Axiis ZA I hope you’ve finally noticed that airsoft is for wimps who hide under their moms arm because airgunning is “too dangerous for those little babies”
I heard the tinny echo on the gen 5 slide straight away! Gen 4 for me!

This guy is REALLY good at reviews I take it. This is the first one I’ve seen and I LOVE it! Keep up the great work my guy!
I think the gen 5 has gone backwards sound's tinny and lost its realism.
also looks stupid as hell
@@Nate-pq4qg I got this insider information from the Glock company: the Gen 6 pistols will have rounded edges at the back of the slide instead.
Heard it right away. I have a gen 3. Knew immediately I didn’t want it.
I agree
@@morriszachrisson8359 when will they be released?
Hi Andy,
Another great review. I purchased the Gen 4 about three months ago & am very glad I did. It's no tack driver but is OK for back yard plinking. Actually this BB gun was purchased as a safe training aide for my three high school to young adult nieces. For that purpose I have found nothing better that the Umarex Glock 17 Gen 4 CO2 BB pistol.
My main difficulty with this replica has been getting the threads started straight when loading the CO2 cartridge into the magazine. Sometimes I get lucky & the threads line up the first time but usually I must try several times & also makes sure I don't get frustrated & force the issue.
Thanks for your good humor & that Great British accent,
Larry
Yesss sir…after you load the CO2…threading gets frustrating 💯💯💯
What do you mean threding @@tyricmcfadden2939
I love the way the gen 4 is the co2 at the bottom and u can’t see it is perfect it really takes the form of the real Glock where u can’t see the co2 cartridge making it look like the real deal
Nice comparison, I'll definitely be going for the Gen 4 after seeing this. Thanks for your great vids, much appreciated.
Gen 4 for me , sounds so much better and watching you shoot them it looks so much smoother than the 5 !
Really helpful vid for people like me struggling with which one to go for. Thank you!
I found adding a round of black protective doctape on the end of the barrel stopped the metal rattle sound.
Bought the Gen 4 after seeing this. Very happy with it. In Canada it comes with the Glock plate/cover on the bottom of the mag. Also purchased an Orpaz level 2 retention holster. LOTS of fun.
Same
A Glock glut? New to all this and this is easily the best channel I've come across on RUclips for this stuff. Thanks for your reviews!
Thank you Andy , great Review for us . Wow many options for a Glockenspiel , but I think they are milking it a bit now ! . I have a dual ammo Glock and that will do for my collection.
Hope you had a fabulous Holiday 👍 Cheers Simon
Thanks for the vids. I would like to see an update with a 'fully licenced Glock 17 Gen 5' ..... field strippable etc. I think the compassison to a Gen 4 would be very interessting
I’ve purchased the Gen4 after watching this, thanks Andy.
After watching your videos for years and having air riffles I have finally ordered a Gen 4 👍
You helped me a lot to decide between the two thanks bunches man
I'm glad I went with the 4 thanks for a great review
New to the sport. I’ve been binge watching for the last 24hrs! Loads of useful information & really good presenting. 👍
Same here! Used to own airguns years ago but thinking of getting back into the hobby but damned if I can decide what to buy there is so much to choose from. Ideally I would want a c02, blowback with slide lock on empty, pellet firing, field strippable, decent replica pistol. Any ideas from your binge watching which would fit the bill?
@@jona826 umarex offer the Glock 17 Gen 4, it ticks most boxes, but fires BBs. They also offer a dual ammo option, but can’t be field stripped.
"Could it b that Glock is going ergonomic" lol love the vids !
Thanks a lot I think I will go for the gen 4 very big help
Thanks for the information. Great videos
Great video! Very informative.
Great video! Great information! I love it! Thanks for the help deciding which one I should go for. : )
I can listen to you all day, thank you for the video sir :)
Great Video. I own a 9mm Glock 17 Gen 5 and use the pellet copy of Umarex to practice handling and shooting at home at a fraction of the cost
I got the GLock 19 Non-Blowback, and I am very happy with it. For plinking it is very accurate and maybe one day, I'll get the Blowback for fun also.
Non-blowbacks are great for conserving Co2, and having good accuracy, whereas blowback pistols are for the added realism and fun. They are also more expensive.
Awesome video, man. Thanks a lot!
That gen.5 sounds like a cow bell
Needs more cow bell
Good review thanks.
Good review thanks
Thanks Andy for the review. I was going to buy a gen 5. But I will go with the gen 4👍
Bought a gen 4 was £240! But much better than the Gen 5 for sure! Had a .177 pellet option also but doesn’t have blow back so was easy decision. It’s amazing. Love the weight only slightly over the real thing and feels lovely in the hand.
Great video, got the gen 4 this year, my first BB gun. Great fun 👍
Great review Andy, good to see a fair and detailed review.
I’d love to see more reviews on target pistols at some point.
Your voice reminds me of Techmoan's channel. Awesome review, I like it. Ordered a TM G17 Gen 4. Thanks.
yea, I am a bit late but after seeing this, I went back to check my gen 5. you can tear it down with tools (you just have to push one pin out) and trigger gets lighter if you do loading slide before first shot, (blow back does do the reload work for next shot) but it is not necessary for shooting. I don't have gen 4 so can't correct anything with that or compare to it :)
Gen 4 for me I like the fact it's field strippable hands down plus the 5 sounds tinny when you rack it, if I could afford to have them all I would but seeing that I don't I'm looking for quality over quantity
Great video, thank you
Brilliant video he’s amazing at showing how they work I own the Gen 4 and Glock dual ammo non threaded version based on the Gen 3 👍 can’t wait to see the Gen 5 pellet video 😃
I heard that the version with the safety feature is not the Glock liscened version. There is a gen 5 version that is fully liscensed and is field strip-able
Ha! That slide on the gen5 burned my eyes immediately I saw it.😂 But I did though already know which magazine system it uses and that it is not manufactured by KWC as the gen4.
Got the gen4 myself. Love it for being a well made replica. The accuracy had to be fixed on it though - because mine shot also very low (approx 7cm low from a 6 meter distance) as it were.
Knew that the gen5 was to win the "Joule competition" between these two. Own the ISSC M22 and the UX HK VP9 from before - both sporting this same type of magazine that the gen5 has. And they do shoot harder than the plastic lip magazines do because of being so co2 efficient. My ISSC M22 actually even blew it's firing pin out because of the hard recoil. But the VP9 is my favorite so far. The VP9's slide does not wiggle around as on the M22 and this G17 gen5..
Personally not a Glock fan myself and I only got the gen4 and the pellet shooting gen3 Glocks.
@MachineGunIt No. My VP9's slide sits on there pretty good. It has kind of a very short railing at the front that locks the slide into the lower frame and prevents it from wiggling. Only when the slide is locked back after the last shot it is more loose upon the lower frame.
Love your work sir
Great review as ever Andy! Will you be reviewing the new Gen 5 pellet version?
Thank you sir i can see the rest in my mind.
Only thing I like on the gen 5 is the dotted sight and the slide so basically if you could just replace the gen 4 slide with the gen 5 it would be awesome and obviously sites are changeable but if I don't have a red dot and I basically have no other choice but to use irons it would for sure be gen 5 iron sites.
For me the Glock 17 gen 4 ( 6 mm ) using CO2 is the best replica from the Glock 17 platform. I just bought it yesterday and it REALLY feels like a real firearm. It has everything apart from using real ammunition and the fire going off the barrel when it shoots.
Nice video as always Andy. Take care and happy shooting. Cheers :)
Hey, love the reviews. I am looking to get the Glock 17 Gen 5 Pellet only. Will you be reviewing this one, as I only found your Dual Ammo review.
I have the gen 5 and love it, very accurate pistol for a blowback, mine doesn’t rattle anywhere near as much as this thankfully. Maybe it’s because mine is the pellet version, less rattly
Thanks for another great review Andy. Umarex seem to have consistently got 90% there but failed to produce a glock that doesn't have some glaring issues (gen 4 excepted). That slide though! Even merely touch the pistol and it's someone is flicking an empty can. How can Umarex or Glock be happy with that!
100% agreed. How could they let that fly. It's the exact reason they've lost a sale to me.
Too be honest, I felt they thought they needed to make a gen 5, but realized they already had a winner with the gen 4 and didn't want to produce the same thing again at additional cost. What would've happened was another gen 4 just with a new design on the slide(the rounded bits). They should've just stopped with gen 4 and if they wanted to make another glock, just do another model besides the 17.
Seems to be clear now they sunk the effort into the Gen 5 t4e.
I'd go from the 4th gen ...
I must add , a fantastic review on both though ...
That freaking rattling sound is driving me NUTS!!!!!
Hi Andy just a little feedback on the review on the glock 17 gen 4 I tried a red dot sight on it it still shoots low .but still is amazing to shoot I no you didn't have time to try the red dot sights on so I thought that I wood give it a go david
I bought the gen 5 then shakes it, and realized the rattling is so unpleasing, returned it
Same story bro
I will do the same :(
Just got it myself. rattles too much, cant disassemble it and the mag is quite different. Gen 4 will be better i think for me
Eeww a gen 5
Just bought Gen 4, rattling terrible, extremely annoying, sent back!
Now I know,...thanks Andy!
Just found this channel I love it keep up the good work also just bought a GEN 4 Glock 17 bb!
Have you had any paint chip off on top of the ejection port notch?
Great review Andy, wish that I had seen your great review before buying the GEN5. The ratling of the slide is very irritating and it cannot be dismantled.
it can be dismantled. you just need to push one pin out. not field friendly tho and I do not see any use for tearing it down. Also pulling slide does do loading work and trigger gets light after it, but you can skip it and just pull trigger. blow back also does do loading work while shooting.
Just picked up the gen 4 shoots a bit hi not low for me other then that it's great I like it only thing is I wish the mag follower stuck up just a tad more but thats minor owe and the safety on the bottom is horrible to move perhaps a little oil will see
Picking up my Gen 5 in the morning. Very excited despite the apparent build quality issues. It'll be my first Glock so I have nothing to compare it to.
Might even try my hand at an unboxing and review video from the non Gen 4 comparison perspective.
Does the 5 have any quality issues
@@mrpenis6969 it suffers with slide rattle but aside from that it's a lovely replica pistol and I'm very happy with it. I get hours of fun.
The blowback is slightly lighter than the Gen 4 but to compensate for this is actually packs a harder punch in the target (despite power figures quoted on the boxes).
I'd recommend it, it's a well built fun pistol in it's own right
Hi Andy can you do a review on the new GLOCK 17 GEN 5 177 pellet version pls
Bought my gen 4 about 6 weeks ago and the mag now has the slide at the bottom with glock markings that was 1 think that was putting me off but I bought it anyway so it was a nice surprise. Uk based 👍
Gen 2.5 of the real steel will always be my favorite. Sucks that there's no airsoft version of it
Got my umarex Glock 17 gen5 today, that’s a beautiful pistol. I can definitely hear the rattling people mention, but my ACP Glock also does a little bit of noise if you shake it. On the new gun I def hear more noise coming from the magazine area, if you shake it it makes noise.. the ACP Glock does not... but hey I don’t pretend to go around shaking the gun! Lol
What is want to know, if anyone can help, what other magazine brands fit on the umarex Glock 17, and is there an extended magazine for the gen5?
The Gen 4 is the way to go I love mine!
Thanks for your comparison! I found there are two variants of G17 gen4 CO2 version from UMAREX, 2.6434 (flat magzine bottom like Green gas version) and 2.6415 (with an extended part on the bottom of magzine), what is the difference and which one shoud I choose? Many thanks.
excellent review - sub gained !
Love this channel
Well that's it then. After driving myself crazy all week trying to decide which Glock to buy you Mr Andy Dandy are the one who made up my mind for me. I will go with the Gen 4. Like that it's more well build and sturdy but damn I wish the FPS was about 100 higher. If it's gonna look and act like a Glock it should also shoot like a real Glock. Low FPS on any Gun just drives me crazy. I want POWER baby !!!
Should make a different variant to glock 17, with a chrome slide........also could make a high capacity magazine which sticks out the grip like the m17!!
Do the pellet ones hit harder? Feel good?
i raised the question because i use them for accuracy shooting
Have u tried the kwc glock copy. I bought one as couldn't find a umarex gen 4 and surprisingly good
Una buena y completa revisión de ambas pistolas. Queda claro que la versión Gen4 está mejor hecha que la Gen5. Me ayudará a decidirme en la compra. ¡Muchas gracias!
According to the specs the Gen 5 differences include 20 round magazine over the 18 350 FPS over 320 and rifled barrel over smoothbore I don't know if the specs are wrong or if AAR is wrong but one of them is
So glad I got the gen 4
This is also very interesting! My Glock 17 Gen 5 seems to be quite different from the one here in the review. I'm not sure if it's different out here in the states or not. The take down levers on mine are fully functional, and I don't have that same rattle action. I also got the green gas version so I'm not sure if that's also why its different.
It's also interesting that these 2 guns shoot steel bbs as well? So it's not just an airsoft gun?
Great review, thank you.
It's outdated tho, they updated the gen 5 and fixed the problems.
No they didn’t
Hello Sir,
Please could you review the air pistol Diana SP50?
I have one and it is not accurate but I enjoy shooting it and would like to know more about its history please.
Yours
Sincerely
Steve from Taunton.
For those of us who already purchased the Glock 19 X it is the same thing as a Glock 17 Gen 5 except for the slide is a little longer so if you're going to get a gen-5 you might as well go ahead and get the pellet version or the paintball version if you already own the Glock 19 X
Really nice guns. I dream about nice Glock with steel abs and co2. But no any are distributed in Russia! We have just co2 airsoft versions or no blowback with stick magazine.
Hello Andy,
First of all a nice vlog 👌.
But I am stuck with 1 question,..
I have a glock 17 gen4 and a glock 17 gen5 as well as 1 glock 19X coyote ....
If I have to choose between the Gen 4 and the Gen 5 , which one would I keep ? Whats you / your opinion ?
Answers are welcome.
Have you done one on the gen5 pellet version? Been searching RUclips but haven't found any reviews yet
Have to agree that i love my Gen 4, it looks and feels amazing and is one of the closest replicas in my collection. The only issue is its almost the most inaccurate by a long way, which is a huge pity. So close and yet so far. Hopefully the Gen 5 although not as good a replica especially where the mag is concerned can address these issues.
Is it still OK as far as accuracy goes? Or it is REALLY bad?
Nice to see some uk based reviews on these guns, gen 4 would be my choice
hawmuch
Hi Andy,
I have bought a glock 17 gen 5 and as your aware you have to load the bbs in one by one is there a way to load then faster I have seen other mags where you load from the bottom or some people modify the mags by drilling a hole big enough for a bb so it's easier/quicker to load..... do you have any advice
I was considering the gen5, but after watching this video, I am having second thoughts. Subbed for more pleaseandthankyou
been having complaints about get the allen key cover back
onto the gun ..hat is you opinion
does the rear sight have a screw to take it off, or just slotted in for gen4 and gen5?
for ipsc purpose(recreational, not gonna join any competition), which gen do you suggest? (I don't consider Tokyo Marui)
That gen 4 makes the gen 5 look so bad lol😂
The nice Simon Cowell of guns.
Love it. Thank you. I will prolly go for the gen4. I just want a nice glock airgun
So teach me is this one that fuses with that one now so which upper would be a reliable durable and stress situational calming when you know the tool your using is the right one for the job.
I want nimil that I can build with out have to show the babysitting License
Is there a way to paint the inner barrel black? I need to for film and the gold inner barrel looks unrealistic
Hi Andy, any chance of a similar review on the green gas versions?
Hi nice review which is good in fps
your showing a 6mm airsoft vs a .177 steel bb version where both are different
Hi Andy, have you had the chance to get the new 45 in your hands? Maybe they solved the quality issues by now?
