Glock 17 blowback 4,5 mm BB/Diabolo CO2 is an air pistol featuring a powerful blow-back system, firing both diabolo pellets and BBs, equipped with a metal slide, an additional safety, and a range of design solutions borrowed from firearms.
The air pistol is modeled after the Glock 17, which has been one of the most popular pistols in the world for many years.
Like the firearm version, the Glock 17 blowback 4,5 mm BB/Diabolo CO2 features a metal moving slide and a polymer frame with anti-slip texturing consistent with the original.
The pistol is equipped with a low-profile slide stop lever, an accessory rail, a contoured grip, and a removable magazine holding 4 rotary inserts for BB and diabolo pellets.
After installing the CO2 cartridge and loading the pellets, the weight closely matches that of the Glock 17 Gen 3 firearm (without ammunition). The pistol uses a fixed sight device, consisting of a white-dot front sight and a framed rear sight.
High-contrast markings speed up alignment of the sight device and allow shooting in low-light conditions.
At the front of the frame there is a mounting rail for additional accessories such as a laser aiming device or a flashlight. Licensed Glock markings and a serial number are applied to the slide and frame.
Grip stability and control are ensured by fine checkering on the side panels and anatomical finger grooves.
The air pistol is powered by a 12 g CO2 cartridge installed in the removable magazine. Installation and replacement are simple thanks to the included Allen key. Insert the cartridge into the magazine housing and tighten the screw until resistance is felt. One CO2 cartridge provides up to 60 shots with a muzzle velocity of 130 m/s. Please note that air temperature and shooting pace significantly affect performance.
The gas-powered system enables a powerful blow-back mechanism, responsible for realistic recoil after each shot. The noticeable “kick” creates the impression of firing a real firearm. To prepare for the next shot, the magazine must be replaced, the slide stop lever pressed, or the slide pulled back firmly. One cartridge allows up to 50 shots with consistent muzzle velocity, which is an excellent result for a blow-back air pistol.
The Glock 17 blowback 4,5 mm BB/Diabolo CO2 is designed to fire both standard 4,5 mm diabolo pellets and 4,46 mm steel BBs.
This is made possible by an innovative magazine design holding 4 rotary inserts (including 3 spare), each with a capacity of 8 pellets. After emptying the first insert, simply remove the magazine and install the next pre-loaded rotary insert.
Thanks to this feature, the pistol can carry up to 32 pellets at once, suitable for both dynamic and precision shooting.
Glock 17 blowback 4,5 mm BB/Diabolo CO2 is equipped with a DAO trigger mechanism (double action only) with a trigger safety that prevents accidental discharge and ensures proper finger placement.
This solution is based on the Safe Action mechanism patented by Glock. An additional manual safety is located within the accessory rail area.
Glock 17 blowback 4,5 mm BB/Diabolo CO2 is an air pistol that not only provides great shooting enjoyment but also allows you to save money by replacing two separate models.
