Umarex Glock 19 Gen3 .177

Not bad for $55. Not bad at all. It's fine for plinking from 15 ft away. That's really about it. Which is fine. I've not seen any other use for CO2 pistol, personally.It MIGHT kill a rat or a bird at 5 ft. But even then, you gotta remember, CO2 simply isn't powerful enough to kill much else at any further distance. So don't buy this as pest control. Because it's not gonna do much in that regard.It's good for getting used to the real thing this is based on and replicating. Cans and bottles don't stand a chance. Feels amazing in hand. Perfect weight. It's got a decently loud pop when fired. If you're in a residential neighborhood, I wouldn't recommend this. It'll certainly be noticeable to others when fired. But there's little to no recoil because it's just a wimpy CO2 pistol.Still, it's great fun for target shooting within a 15 ft distance. Remember it's a legit, officially licensed replica. It looks exactly like the real firearm it's design is based on. Do not walk around with this. It would absolutely be mistaken for a real gun.

This is an impressive Air Pistol. Overall looks just like a Glock and feels great when you handle it . The back handle kept falling off and I eventually lost it. I was unable to order a replacement part. I still gave 5 stars because it is fun to shoot I would recommend putting some orange paint on barrel or something to identify as not real Glock. The price is very fair for Air pistol of this quality. As a note loosing back of handle does not stop from using product

Looks and feels like an actual Glock pistol. Slide doesn’t pull back but has a safety button on it and it fires accurately with force when using steel bbs. The ejection button releases the slim magazine that holds 15 bbs. Never keep the CO2 cartridge in unless you’re using it because you will lose pressure. Has a decent shot sound making it more realistic. Definitely not for home defense but keeps critters away and great to get used to holding a real weapon when the time comes.

The BB gun has a great feel and weight. It is very close to an actual Glock in those regards. Very accurate. Great for inexpensive target practice at a fraction of the cost of the real thing. I like everything about it except the "clip" that holds the BB's. There is a little thumbhold for compressing the spring so you can load the BB's into the clip. There is also a warning in the instructions to NOT let the spring freely decompress. It is virtually impossible to consistently prevent that from happening. First, while there is a locking notch for the spring compressor, it routinely spontaneously (or at the slightest vibration) causing the rapid spring decompression; and second, even with my thumb on the little nub, the little nub has such a low profile that it slips out from under my thumb. This is bad for two reasons: 1. It sends the BB's that were loaded to all come out of the top of the clip, sending the bb's dancing around the room. 2. More importantly, it damages the clip (which is what the warning is about) so much so that even if you very carefully allow the spring to decompress, the top of the clip will no longer retain the bb's and again the bb's dance around the room. You will find those bb's later when you're walking around barefoot. I called Umarex with this general concern. They were very nice and helpful and immediately offered to send me a replacement clip (with the return of the current one). That is nice and appropriate (I haven't sent it yet), but I doubt it's going to fix the problem. I am trying to design some sort of bracket or stop that will prevent that sudden decompression.

Excellent, it has great shooting power.
