Even after a year this review is still perfect, it’s the only one on TH-cam that has actually swayed my decision on purchasing the gen 4 over the gen 3. Thanks so much for making this 👍
I have 3 Blowback guns but not my favourite. I care about precision and I can't get that with Blowback.. I do like my Glock 19 Non Blowback,really nice and accurate gun,no jams,good trigger nothing to complain...That's my rant...
@@progun45 Thank you, that is very important information, I didn't know there were 2 versions. Since the one I have available comes in one of those blister packs it is imposible to take it out to see the slide. How can I tell from the blister pack if it is the full blowback version 17 gen3?
@@Reviewerhn It Shouls say Blowback on the package. The full blowback is awesome, it's pretty realistic. However, the full blowback requires more C02 so you will get less shots. I only get about 75 shots on a C02 cartridge but it's worth it. The full blowback is great for teaching people new to firearms as well.
You don't buy these for Power, it's for fun. If you want power buy a PCP big bore Pistol or just a .22 lr Pistol. Gen is 4 is Better Built, More durable, more reliable, more realistic and more accurate than Gen 3

Thanks Brother
I really did enjoy your videos. I want to get the Gen 3 and the gen 4 and the gen 5
@@LovelyBaseball-ex1zn Thanks Brother. Personally, I like the Gen 3 finger grooves.
Great review buddy. Thanks for actually knowing what you're talking about, compared to some of these other videos.
Thanks brother.

Valid points, but it is cool.
Thanks for sharing
Is it just me or screwing in the co2 on the gen 4 difficult?
It's a bitch and very frustrating
Are they loud? I mean, if I practice in my backyard are the neighbors going to scare and call the police? Sorry but I'm just new with airguns
Not loud at all
Where I live only have 2 options, the 17 Gen 3 or the 19X. Which would you advise I buy?
I would go with the 17 Gen 3. I happen to prefer the finger grooves.
@@progun45 thank you for your opinion, is the magazine rattle as bad as people say? Makes it sound cheap and tinny?
@@Reviewerhn Mine does not rattle. I have the full blowback version

Between the Gen 4 & gen 3 blowback which is more powerful?
Gen 4 is more powerful since it is full blowback. Tradeoff is that co2 doesn't last as long
Thank You!!
You're welcome!
I've lost the little thing to open the magazine to put in the CO2 could you please tell me where I can buy it
It is just an allen key you can get them at Lowes or contact Umarex USA
@@progun45 God bless you your a legend I ordered some on Amazon and it worked perfectly that you Soo much
Hey were can i get this gen 4 and its ammo?
Amazon or Bass Pro for pistol and bb's. Walmart for bb's as well.
is there a link to buy the gen 4 i have 1 but its the old gen 4 and i what the newest 1
www.umarexusa.com/
great gun love mine but i wiped the slide down with a baby wipe and all the finish came off how do u remove the slide
My slide comes off just like all the Glock slides.
Gen 3 = 365 fps … Gen 4 = < 300 fps :(
it's probably due to how much further the slide has to blow back
