Customer Reviews for Umarex Glock 19 Gen3 CO2 BB Gun

Brand: Umarex Canada

Type: BB Pistol
Manufacturer: Umarex
Model: Glock 19
Materials: Metal and Polymer
Weight: 726 g (1.6 lb)
Barrel: Smoothbore
Power Source: CO2
Action: Semi Auto, Non-blowback, Double Action Only
Ammo Type: Steel BBs 4.5mm
Ammo Capacity: 16 Rounds
FPS: 410

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Umarex Glock 19 CO2 BB Pistol is double action only and has an inner barrel that protrudes out of the external barrel. You see this on many lower cost CO2 BB pistols. I believe the barrel is actually part of the action and kind of acts like the hammer hitting the valve after it has allowed a BB to enter the break area. The double action trigger is a bit long but not overly heavy and does have a working trigger safety on it.

Build Quality: The Umarex Glock 19 is really well made. It's super solid at 1.6 pounds and feels in the hand like a real Glock would. Fit and finish are very good and you are going to find lots of metal parts where they would be and need to be on this air pistol.

Realism: The Umarex Glock 19 absolutely looks the part, sitting on the table and even holding it in your hand, you are going to think it's the real deal. When you start trying to cycle the slide and eject the magazine is when you are going to quickly realize this is not a 9mm Glock 19 but rather a replica 4.5mm steel BB version. I am hoping that down the road Umarex and Glock will come out with a full blowback and full metal drop out magazine version.

Pros:

  • Great weight and feel to it, build quality seems really good
  • Really nice looking replica of the original Glock 19
  • Fully Glock licensed
  • Easy to see white dot sights front and back
  • Working trigger safety
  • Recessed barrel for added realism
  • Accessory rail for adding a laser or tactical light
  • Stick magazine butt plate gives the elusion of a full size magazine
  • Warning instruction are nice and discreet under trigger guard
  • Currently the only Glock licensed 4.5mm steel BB pistol
  • 410 FPS is nice and strong

Cons:

  • Fixed slide with no blowback action
  • Has a stick magazine rather than a full size magazine
  • Sight are non-adjustable which is common with low cost airguns like this one
  • Would have liked to have seen more pristine packaging from Glock

Comments: I know this version of the Umarex Glock 19 Non-blowback CO2 BB Pistol is not exactly what we where all hoping for... That said we are making progress. Glock actually licensed there name out to an airgun manufacturer and is working with them to come out with even better future versions and models so be happy with what we do have and pick one of these first generation Umarex Glock 19 Non-blowback CO2 BB Pistols, after all this is history in the making and I know I want to own the first ever officially licensed Glock BB Pistol, don't you?

Outstanding Performance

I picked up this pistol a couple of years ago. And I can’t find any difficulties with it.What I did notice is that the FPS was quite high at 400+for a CO2 cartridge. Also one thing to consider is that these weapons are not toy’s.So READ AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY! I can not stress enough the importance of safety operations when handling!Treat them as you would any real firearm.Store them in a container that locks and protects them. If your children show an interest in them I hope you as a responsible adult will instruct them properly. ALWAYS REMEMBER SAFETY FIRST.!

Very Good Gun

Pros: very good look, as opposed to the 17; drop-dpwn mag clip; light-weight and compact; warning inconspicuous as it's on the underside of the trigger guard. Cons: uncomfortable to hold because of bulge on the lower part of the backstrap and angular shape where the point between the thumb and rest of the hand rests; unrifled barrel; slide not functional (the Umarex Colt Special Combat has a functional slide but does not need to be racked, as it should be, and is not blowback, also as it should be); the muzzle velocityshould be more like 500 fps, but it's at least over 400; the caliber is only .177, when it should be at least .22; safety is confusing because the fire and safe positions are not distinguished by colour, and it should be automatic, as in the firearm; the magazine clip is not full size (it is in the Umarex Colt Special Combat); trigger pull is a little heavy (this, of course, is in imitation of the firearm); it's a CO2, which means it's likely to have problems (it should be an easy-to-pump pneumatic, pneumatics are unfortunately usually not easy to pump); Umarex is notorious for its atrocious packaging (last time it took me an hour to open, but this time at least it was only about 20 mins.; manufacturers should be imprisoned for such packaging for at least 10 years, it would teach them a damn good lesson). Haven't tried it out for accuracy yet, and the rating for this is required, so I put it as it is usually said to be.

Fast, Accurate, Standardized

FUN! Given the standardized specs, many Glock accessories including holsters, lights and lasers can be purchased. The non-blowback, or NBB feature keeps the FPS high, and simplifies the construction, meaning: less things that can break. Also, many youtube videos that teach pistol handling, utilize a Glock, and so that just adds to the fun. The BEST part of this bb is that other guns have the CO2 on the clip, which makes the clips expensive and forces you to reload the clip in order to use up the CO2 tank. Why would you have a bunch of spare clips when a single CO2 tank can shoot 100 rounds!!! (???) I don't know about you, but when I'm out there, it's to shoot, not to fumble around reloading BB magazines and drying up all the fun. The Umarex Glock 19 gen 3 NBB has low cost spare magazines, that allow you to blast through a bunch of clips using the same tank. This way you can plan your target practice session by preparing clips and installing a single CO2 tank. I'm happy with 100 shots. It takes 2 minutes to prep 6 clips and Bob's your uncle after that. There's nothing like swapping clips without needing to mess around with a bb container. :) FUN!!!! I love it so much, I bought 2. 12 clips. Oh yeah.

love it !

Living in canada can't get the real thing. This satisfies me and makes me feel like if I ever did that the muscle memory will be there. Yes the slide clanks but it honestly makes it sound even more authentic and its only when you give it a good shake. For 150 CAN this is a steal. Well worth the price. Let's see if it holds up over time now. Also I was worried about co2 from what people say. But maybe they are using crap tanks because from a crosman 12g i got 5 mags of 18 shots. I even overloaded one of the mags and shot 19! Blowback is hard.

Amazing Glock 19 Replica

This is by far the best CO2 powered non blowback pistol I've ever owned. It's firing for myself Chrono at 426 out of the plastic, real deal weight wise. And to let you all know if going for looks or wow factor. Go for blowback. But it's only a feature. What you want is too waste less CO2 and have more kinetic energy coming out of it. So your shots are faster and more precise... Definitely get this. I have two. With two extra mags

paint strips too easily

I haven’t even had mine for very long and the paint is already stripping on it I don’t put it in a hard holster or anything I wish it was more durable other than that it’s nice I was going to get a blowback one in the future but I think I’ll get something with a more durable finish on it also the magazine on mine wiggles too much already so I wouldn’t recommend this generation of Umarex glocks personally I have other Umarex products and they’re fine this one just feels like I must’ve got a bad quality one or something

Amazing Toy

Just got this from Canada Post a few minutes ago and was super excited. The packaging was a bit damaged but, honestly, who cares about packaging. The gun itself is super heavy and feels exactly like a real Glock. Pretty accurate as well. The only reason I removed a star from build quality is because there's a place under the trigger guard that scratches your finger pretty bad. Would definitely recommend.
