GHK Glock 17 Gen5.

[Cr0-Magnon]

Not sure if there's an "owners thread" on this pistol?

 

I've just picked one up and few queries/comments. The first being how the hell do you load these? I've tried angling the supplied speed loader as illustrated in the manual but really struggling to get more than one or two BB's at a time in.

The only other GKH gun I've owned before was a G5 and remember they had a similar (the same?) speed loader attachment. However I don't remember having this issue to such a degree.

 

Other than that I'm pretty impressed so far. The kick is not as snappy as the TM version (I guess that should be obvious, comparing to a plastic slide) but the recoil is definitely stronger. Overall this definitely isn't one for the "speedi boi's" but seems top notch for collecting, training, plinking etc.

 

Also, I don't like putting unnecessary wear on my stuff, so don't do it too much but I must say, racking the slide is addictive. Unlike TM and VFC Glock's, there's no roller to get over, so it's smooth all the way but like a real pistol, it won't go back into battery unless you give it a nice sharp full pull back and release.

I find the standard marui speed loader is much better than the one supplied. Keeping it angled and pressed down hard seems to work for me.

GHK pen loader works well, as does the auto bot. Found a vid and ended up doing it to my M4 mags think the Glock will get the same treatment aswell when I can get around to it.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DH0VaIF408s&ab_channel=CoolDown

For the amount of plinking I do, I can get by on using a big TM loader. As you mentioned, that type seems to work better than the GHK one.

Well my supplied speedloader just jammed up and broke on the first proper attempt to load the mags. I've got some pistol adaptors for a TM speedloader, so I'll see what I can get to work. Otherwise really great pistol and enjoyed runnin it for the first time this weekend just gone.

Top idea, after all it works for real mags.
