Katotaka Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 picture/link to a new(?) pistol floating around local forums/FB groups http://www.kjworks.com.tw/productdetail.php?id=92 given that KJ just released a *beep*-seventeen model a while ago, I believe it's reasonable to release a version with different "skin" to hopefully get into the US I'm digging that grip, looks comfy, slightly straightened back strap, front strap sans finger grooves, triggerguard undercut, also, longer beavertail (would love it higher like a timberwolf, BTW) , love them, potential modding/stippling material <3 <3 <3 oh, the back end reminds me of P320, just saying Link to post Share on other sites
Wingman Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 I'll buy it. Like the look and I've always had good luck with KJW's. Will be interesting to see how much G17 stuff will fit in it and on it for customizing purposes. Your right about the Timberwolf. I have a couple I've been working on (pretty much all you can get here due to "you know who's" antics) and the latest versions are top notch. If they really want to make some money, they will come out with a G19 sized version. Link to post Share on other sites
ardrummer292 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Mmmm... CO2 compatible. Maybe there will be a way to put the guts from this into a more accurate replica 'shell.' If it runs as well as my P226 (KP-01) and can be made to look more like the genuine item, I'm all over it. Link to post Share on other sites
NonEx Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Looks like a mash up of Glock, M&P and CZ P-09 Link to post Share on other sites
number47 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Agreed, also see a bit of the new CZ P10C (grip) in there as well. Magazine base plate looks Glock like so perhaps that'll be good news for those with Marui G17s as KJW tend to be mostly compatible with Marui guns. Not too keen on the slide cuts, a bit too 'Costa' for my liking but will probably still buy. Number 47 Link to post Share on other sites
Lone_Bullet Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Great news! Hope it'll be all marui compatible. Replace everything with uac! Sent from my C6603 using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites
tquilha Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Kinda like it the way it is. Why not make some new (as in not based on real guns) models? Link to post Share on other sites
TheFull9 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Looks zuper-duper like a CZ P-10 to me, they'd have been better off just making one of those. Link to post Share on other sites
Wingman Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 No trades..No bucks to worry about paying to the real steel manufacturer and no potential lawsuits. The more I look at the picture, the more I can see all sorts of customizing that can be done and it looks more "TM G compatible" all the time. This will go over well in the USA as most "G models" (other than the Timberwolf) are nearly impossible to buy. This and the new APS pistol are good news. The new ..cough..cough..Cybergun FNS 9 will be out soon (not sure I like how the magazines are held in on that one though. Looks too easy to damage and wear out). Link to post Share on other sites
mezurashii Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 The slide doesn't do anything for me, but the frame (with some slight help via dremel & soldering iron) looks like it could be quite nice. And grey is a cool color as well, it would be something new. Link to post Share on other sites
FireKnife Posted February 25, 2017 Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 Looks ok to me, but then I am not a Glock fan. I think I will just stick to their CZ side of things instead . 'FireKnife' Link to post Share on other sites

Wingman Posted February 26, 2017 Report Share Posted February 26, 2017 No worse than a standard Glock and mostly its the slide which, it seems like, everyone switches out anyway. Link to post Share on other sites
Gunnman Posted February 26, 2017 Report Share Posted February 26, 2017 No worse than a standard Glock and mostly its the slide which, it seems like, everyone switches out anyway. Have to agree, at least no one took a drill to the slide either. Link to post Share on other sites
1st Commando Posted March 3, 2017 Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 KJ have also released a proper G17 with no markings but you have no hope of seeing that in the US as you have "trade dress" Both green gas mags and CO2 mags are out too Link to post Share on other sites
blobface Posted March 3, 2017 Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 Has anyone tried the KJ co2 mags? Especially in a TM build that involves steel slide (and probably polycarbonate nozzles)? Link to post Share on other sites
number47 Posted March 23, 2017 Report Share Posted March 23, 2017 found more pictures on RA Tech's website: http://en.ratech.com.tw/english/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1739:ra-at-g-kj021-9&catid=53&Itemid=187 Have to say, the more pics I see the more I like it. Particularly the grip and the sights. Link to post Share on other sites
blobface Posted March 23, 2017 Report Share Posted March 23, 2017 I now own 3 x KJ Glock green gas mags and 3 x KJ Glock CO2 mags, they are my favourite Glocks mags so far of all the ones I've tried due to their complete compatibility across platforms, especially the CO2. Below is my experience, strictly concerning Glocks with steel slides (Your mileage may vary for your models): The model I own/owned are as follows, all full steel: WE x RA-Tech G17, KJ x Guarder G23, TM x Guarder G34, Stark Arms "premium version" full steel G17. KJ CO2 mags not only works on all the steel builds, it also has very minimal base (same as green gas), unlike other brand such as APS which I have yet to try. WE for instance, while being very minimal, barely cycles on my KJ and TM Guarder steel builds, it does however cycle the Stark Arms gun with good recoil, but bizarrely only at 130 fps. The KJ green gas magazines also works the best for all models, the crazy thing is that it works far better on Stark Arms steel guns than Stark Arms green gas magazine... TM mag goes into a Stark Arms gun, but the mag catch does not fully engage and falls off easily. Hope this helps for anyone who's thinking about which steel Glock to go for.

hitmanNo2 Posted March 23, 2017 Report Share Posted March 23, 2017 Nice. I've been umming and ahhing over getting some CO2 Glock mags for a while now. KJW it is. Link to post Share on other sites
ardrummer292 Posted March 28, 2017 Report Share Posted March 28, 2017 Is the 1:1 G17 replica version designated as the KP-17? I'm seeing CO2-compatible KP-17s on a few different websites. Link to post Share on other sites
number47 Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 Airsoft Taiwan has a short preview video of it. As suspected, the KP13 is essentially a Glock 17 that has been made more ergonomic. Internals, mags are the same although they say Marui parts won't fit. This seems odd as most KJW guns in the past have been essentially clones (allbeit good ones) and I see no logic in them not making their Glock 17 the same as Marui's. KJW are one of my favourite makers as they at least try to do something different now and again. Here's hoping for a P7M13! http://www.popularairsoft.com/news/ast-kj-works-kp-13-first-sneak-peek Link to post Share on other sites
Lone_Bullet Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 Not TM compatible? Oh noez, that was my one condition :'( Sent from my C6603 using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites
