Borner 17 (Glock) Air Pistol
Borner 17 is an air pistol that externally replicates the Austrian Glock 17. This model is designed for training and recreational shooting, using 12-gram CO2 cartridges as its power source, which are installed in a compartment in the grip. The slide and frame are made of plastic, which reduces the pistol's weight and makes it comfortable for extended use; the device weighs 0.43 kg, with an overall length of 198 mm.
The ergonomic grip with a rough, anti-slip surface ensures a secure hold. The magazine is located in the grip and holds 20 BBs of 4.5 mm caliber. Magazine removal is simplified by a ambidextrous button in the trigger guard, allowing for one-handed operation. The initial BB velocity is approximately 120 m/s.
The pistol is equipped with standard non-adjustable sights (rear sight and front sight). A 22 mm wide Weaver rail (Picatinny compatible) is located under the barrel for mounting under-barrel accessories — a flashlight or laser designator. For safety, a push-button safety is provided on the trigger (manual safety).
An important characteristic is the absence of a Blowback system (Blowback: No), which affects the shooting feel and the simplicity of the design. Ammunition type is BBs, 4.5 mm caliber. The barrel is smoothbore.
Package Contents and Additional Information
The package includes: pistol, manual, cardboard packaging, and a hex key. Additional information indicates that the pistol has a Weaver/Picatinny rail for accessories. The description also mentions a feature of the trigger mechanism: "Trigger mechanism - Double Action Only: when the trigger is pressed, the hammer (striker) is first cocked, then released." However, the list of characteristics also states "Trigger mechanism (TMM) Single Action," so please pay attention to this detail when choosing.
