The Glock 17 Gen.5 6mm is a licensed ASG replica of the Austrian self-revolving pistol, based on a modern polymer frame. The model features a faithful reproduction of the flammable original, a metal lock with a realistic Blow-Back system, CO2 power supply and high ergonomics. The presented version is a full-size pistol in gray/black color.
Features of the Glock 17 Gen.5 replica:
- Solidly built replica, with polymer body and all-metal breech.
- It is equipped with a fixed bow tie and a light-element pincer, making it easier to aim correctly.
- Gas-powered, making it possible to shoot in self-repeat mode.
- It is equipped with a system of realistic recoil of the breech after shooting Blow-Back.

- Better contoured grip shapes.
Realistic performance of the replica
The design of the Glock 17 Gen.5 has been made with special reproduction of construction details. It is a compact version based on a polymer frame, on which a metal lock is mounted. The manufacturer also made sure that in addition to the faithfully reproduced design, the operation of the mechanisms of the replica was as close as possible to the original. The model will prove itself in combat as a sidearm.
Powered by a CO2 capsule
The model is powered by a 12 gram CO2 capsule mounted in the magazine. Compressed carbon dioxide allows for self-repeatable firing. A good quality CO2 cartridge allows you to fire about 60 aligned shots. The number of shots is also dependent on air temperature, shooting dynamics and proper maintenance of the structure. It is also important to remember that a punctured CO2 capsule can be left screwed in for up to 48 hours. The shot ball reaches a velocity of about 360 FPS.
Blow-Back System
The replica has a Blow-Back system, which is responsible for the realistic recoil of the breech after each shot is fired. The perceptible "kick" of the gun mimics the effect accompanying the firing of a firearm. After the last bullet is fired, the lock stops in the rear position.
SA trigger mechanism
The model uses a Single Action (single action only) trigger mechanism, which is characterized by a short path to the moment of firing and little resistance with which to pull it down. After reloading and after firing the first shot, the shock mechanism will then be automatically tightened by the retracting lock. The main advantage of this solution is its simple design and the ability to fire precise shots without the risk of breakage.
Targeting instruments and rail
Glock has mechanical sighting instruments. They consist of a fixed bow tie and a white-pointed pinniped, making it easier to align the two elements with each other. In addition, a 22mm Picantinny standard mounting rail has been placed on the frame, under the barrel. It allows the installation of a laser pointer, flashlight, etc.
Safety features of the replica and the magazine
The gun has an automatic trigger safety in the form of an additional tongue integrated into the trigger. The replica uses a metal magazine inserted into the handle with a capacity of 14 rounds.
