blobface Posted December 12, 2019 Report Share Posted December 12, 2019 - Forged full steel CNC Slide - Steel reinforced frame (overmould) - OOTB green gas ready - CO2 mag planned - "Lightweight" plastic mags (probably a sleeve) - 4.9lb pull, different trigger kit planned for the future - No BBU housing, the whole slide is effectively a BBU housing.

renegadecow Posted December 12, 2019 Report Share Posted December 12, 2019 And here I was ready to trash it for being just another TM clone. Link to post Share on other sites
blobface Posted December 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2019 He was able to reset the trigger just by pushing on the valve knock reset, does that mean this is some weird double action internal hammer as a way to increase pull strength without impeding on the slide action?

renegadecow Posted December 12, 2019 Report Share Posted December 12, 2019 Does appear like that. Real Glocks kinda work the same way. What's worrisome is the price. With all those features it'll at least be $300 Link to post Share on other sites
blobface Posted December 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2019 $300...would be a steal, I'm pretty much expecting $450-500... Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted December 12, 2019 Report Share Posted December 12, 2019 Yeah. At least $400 for sure. I bet the likes of Bomber with their $360 slide kits won't be too pleased heh. Link to post Share on other sites
PureSilver Posted December 12, 2019 Report Share Posted December 12, 2019 This looks awesome, and I'm also expecting somewhere in the $400-500 range if this is a mass-production item, rather than a really limited run like the RWA/BAD receiver sets and other $1k+ products.

PPM05 Posted December 12, 2019 Report Share Posted December 12, 2019 Out of all the things they could make ... the market is saturated with glock replicas. Link to post Share on other sites

Got Wood? Posted December 13, 2019 Report Share Posted December 13, 2019 Colour me interested... Here’s hoping there’s more than Gen3 though! Link to post Share on other sites
Wild_XIII Posted December 13, 2019 Report Share Posted December 13, 2019 I was skeptical about this, but after seeing what GHK have done internally I'm very interested now. It would have been nice if it wasn't a Glock, but we can't have it all. If they use this system for a 1911 then I'm in! Link to post Share on other sites
bladerunner168 Posted December 13, 2019 Report Share Posted December 13, 2019 Bang Bang said a "little more" than $300, at $350 I'll get one Link to post Share on other sites
blobface Posted December 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2019 *woops, these are huge, hope you don't mind. Link to post Share on other sites
DarkLite Posted December 13, 2019 Report Share Posted December 13, 2019 Still a lot more than I'd want to spend on a sidearm, but compared to your usual WE/TM base pistol and a steel slide/barrel/fcg set, this is deffo a major contender if they can stick to the ~$300USD region.

Wingmann Posted December 13, 2019 Report Share Posted December 13, 2019 $300 is doable if that's going to be my only sidearm. Too bad I hate Glock's pistol grip angle. Link to post Share on other sites
Got Wood? Posted December 13, 2019 Report Share Posted December 13, 2019 Would it take genuine frames, I wonder... Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted December 13, 2019 Report Share Posted December 13, 2019 I'm pretty sure the metal bits are moulded into the plastic so RS frames are very unlikely. Link to post Share on other sites

renegadecow Posted December 15, 2019 Report Share Posted December 15, 2019 I'm glad the projected price is closer to my estimate but that's still money I'd rather put into the Modify PP-2K and/or Raptor Grach Link to post Share on other sites
icolater Posted December 15, 2019 Report Share Posted December 15, 2019 Looks great!! Wonder if the “metal” bits in the frame are steel. If not why bother. Also why gen 3 ?? Link to post Share on other sites
DiscoBiscuit Posted December 15, 2019 Report Share Posted December 15, 2019 GHK 18c will be... hard to resist. Like to see some long-slides, too. Link to post Share on other sites

Also why gen 3 ?? It looks like the front and rear most tabs that are imbedded into the frame and actually engage the slide guide rails are carbon steel. The blocks holding the trigger and striker appear to be a different material but could be MIM steel. Link to post Share on other sites
intinerious Posted December 16, 2019 Report Share Posted December 16, 2019 I was at the MOA show and I fondled the GHK Glock. I've got pics but it's the same stuff that's already available online so I won't bother uploading. Here's a couple of points to take away: - Magazine is light. It can take 22kg gas and the design is similar to the prowin one. Mag body is likely made by extrusion and not casting hence the weight. - The slide is basically a bolt carrier group. The nozzle's not as big as a GBBR but it's bigger than anything else available on pistols - disassembly "just like a real glock" as in no need to pull slide all the way back before being able to slide it off the frame - output valve in the mag is huge, looks like something you can find on a GBBR. - proprietary everything, save for the barrel and bucking being TM Spec - rotary dial hop up adjustment that's in line with the barrel. I assume it uses a leaf spring to apply pressure. I'm not a fan of that. You need to remove the entire inner barrel assembly to adjust hop up however. - racking the slide is smooth. No more hammer "bump" for a BBU to ride over fits real glock sights and I think mag catches. Not sure whether it fits real anything else. Rear plate on the slide isn't RS spec, so it's proprietary.

blobface Posted December 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2019 From your impression do you think they can introduce an RMR / MOS cut easily in the future? Or would it "eat" into the void of the BCG/BBU? Link to post Share on other sites
