In August 2017, Glock unveiled the "fifth generation" or "Gen5" Glock 17 to the real steel world. The revisions centered on ergonomics and improving reliability. Many parts of fifth-generation Glock pistols cannot be interchanged with those of the previous generations. The two fifth-generation models announced were the Glock 17 and Glock 19, chambered for the 9x19 mm Parabellum. Some conspicuous changes on the fifth-generation models are ambidextrous slide stop levers, DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) surface finish for barrel and slide, a barrel featuring a revised style of polygonal rifling (called the "Glock Marksman Barrel" by Glock), a deeper recessed barrel crown, omission of the finger grooves on the grip, a flared magazine well, and a reintroduction of a (half-moon shaped) cutout on the bottom front of the grip. The locking block pin located above the trigger pin that was introduced in the third generation is omitted. Many internal parts were less conspicuously revised. "Gen 5" is roll-marked on the slide next to the model number to identify the fifth-generation pistols. The magazines were also revised for the fifth-generation models. The redesigned magazine floor plates feature a frontward protruding lip to offer grip for manual assisted extraction and the magazine follower became orange-colored for easier visual identification.
This limited edition airsoft Glock is a replica of the current standard issue sidearm of the French Armed Forces! This airsoft Glock 17 Gen 5 pistol features an FDE frame and comes with 4 genuine Glock back straps and comes in a genuine Glock case also in FDE! The airsoft version faithfully replicas the same features externally. The pistol works on regular green and fires with a crisp, fast cycle. The added benefit of this being a product licensed by Umarex (Elite Force) and Glock is that it can also work with many other accessories designed for Glocks such as weapon lights, holsters, etc. without having to worry if your pistol will be to spec. Most importantly, the Gen 5 Glock features the latest system from VFC which boasts incredible recoil impulse, easy-to-adjust hop-up with the patented Guide Hop, and extreme gas efficiency! Even though this limited edition airsoft Glock 17 Gen 5 comes with authentic Glock accessories, the price is still relatively affordable, making this a must-buy for Glock fans!
Being a product fully licensed by Umarex (Elite Force) and Glock, all the corresponding markings are the same as what you will find on the real firearm. This airsoft Glock 17 Gen 5 is designed to use Green Gas for the best performance.
