"Great gun, you don’t have to be LE/military to buy it though idk why they put that in the ad listing. Kinda silly. Otherwise beautiful replica

"Before buying this I had the Elite Force Glock 19 and after using both I much prefer the Spartan Glock. I replaced the hop-up and barrel which drastically improved the range and accuracy. This replica fits in all the G17 holsters I have tried with no issues. One con I have so far is the slide, the slide catch is quickly wearing away the notch on the slide that it catches on. Gas consumption is still good even though the slide travel farther than the Elite Force Glock 17. Other than the slide, after market part support is very good. Overall, this is the best licensed Glock model you can get for the price.

"This feels a lot better than the Elite Force. The slide is a lot smoother like the real steel and feels higher quality. EF feels like an extremely fine sandpaper compared to Spartan. From what I've read, this is a 100% size replica, meaning it'll fit real steel holsters. EF I read are a tiny bit wider in dimension.
This gun is extremely gas efficient. I can do 4-6 mags per fill. These are fully compatible with WE and EMG mags. I haven't tried EF mags. But if you want to save money on mags, there you go. I haven't tried CO2 but I'm sure it'll work just fine.

Some cons (may be my gun in particular):
1. Slide will jam up against the metal outer barrel. Too much friction, even if lubed. I just put a piece of packaging tape and voila!
2. Internal hammer will sometimes uncock itself when you rack the slide before it's back in battery, meaning it'll hammer prematurely. I haven't figured out the exact cause it but do notice if you rack the slide pressing against the frame instead of just straight out, it will release the hammer. It may be an alignment issue.
3. The safety in the trigger is inoperable on my gun. Most likely the spring fell out somewhere between the factory and my residence. But as a training pistol, as long as you have good trigger discipline, it isn't a hassle at all.

"I got one of these for my police department for scenario and active shooter training as a cost-effective alternative for simunitions. Since we are issued the full size Glock (17/22)this is the best option in my opinion. We used this gun for all of our officers for two training days in addition to regular use by me and I can say I'm impressed. Co2 cartridges go a long way and is a good option and alternative to green gas, but it still also has a good recoil impulse with both. This gun shoots accurately, is reliable, and is true to size. It also fits in a safariland duty holster with a Surefire or Streamlight weapon light and even fits in a molded Bravo Concealment kydex holster. This gun made such a good impression that we are looking to purchase more of these guns. Only con I can really come up with after about 3 weeks of owning this gun is the price tag is a little steep.

"Purpose for purchase is for training and not airsoft play.

Only had this for one day - here are my initial impressions.
Pros:
-Similar in operation as actual
-Very similar size as actual
-Has a good heft to it
-Fits my holster
-Accuracy is decent
-Has blowback (but see below)

Cons:
-Slide locks back if the mag is empty: Although there is blowback, locking back on an empty mag defeats the purpose
-Quality: paint is chipping away after less than 1 full mag of use
-Price: for this price-point I expect better quality. I own other air pistols and paid less for better quality and performance.

Nitpick: the 'Made in Taiwan' sticker on the side could have been a little more discreet. I don't mind that it is made in Taiwan, but if this is supposed to be a replica Glock, they could have placed this in a better place or made the sticker black to be more subtle.

Overall: I think this is overpriced. Being only available to LE/MIL and described as a 'training pistol' this falls short of expectations. As an airsoft pistol or for force on force type training, I think this can work well.
