I'll definitely get a first hand experience. I really like the slides that the Glocks come with. Is it true that if you get the slide, it makes a even better clacking sound?

I personally love everything by KSC/KJW/KWA and my KWA G19 is fantastic. I had a KSC G18C prior to that and loved it as well (but the auto fire is a waste).



Be sure to research quality holster compatibility for whichever sidearm you are looking into buying. Your sidearm is only as good as the holster you carry it in!

TM' are good but hard to find, KSC are good as well, KWC are basically a rebadged KSC and KJW's are crap.

KSC would be a good brand to start with, lots of upgrades avalialble if wanted.

Don't think the G19 is a small pistol, it's not.......... ok, compared to a 1911 or a MK23, sure it's small.

And yes, makes a better claking sound, but for fast double tap use, I find my stock KSC G19 (yes, I have a couple of them) with the plastic slide, enhanced recoil spring guide and propane................ retardedly fast cycling! Like 2-3 rounds per second if you can keep up with it. Is the beaty of the short action the Glock offers, and also works great at close in shit when you need to get in and get out around a doorjam for instance, you can double tap a guy before an AEG can even spool up to shoot at you. I do it often, really baffles other players actually.

Thats another thing thats really attracts me to buy a G19. I see so many upgrades that are possible compared to the G19. But is there a reason for that? Like some places carry parts only because they are more prone to break. The KWA M226 (P226) air nozzle breaks easily, thus being more parts for that gun. Are there any problems for the KSC G19?

having personally owned both a g18c (identical size to g17) and g19, I love the hold and feel of the g19 but the size of the g18c body looked more proportional.

Also keep in mind, as for durability...the g19 has more metal internals than the g17

I feel the G19 is very proportional, the G17/18 is kind of awkward looking, kinda like a 120lb, 6ft tall teen with braces, wearing glasses and having size 13 shoes.

It's all personal preference, but I personally feel that the G19 is the perfect handgun. The size is just right - it's just small enough without being "too" small. Big sidearms aren't practical, which is why you won't find real operators rockin' Desert Eagles. There is such a thing as too much gun!

It's all about balance.

Great...that hurt my feelings...Just kidding. Yeah sounds like I am going to get the G19 for sure. I see glocks on TV all the time and it looks real nice. Plus, I love the fact that it has so many upgrades. I see recoil springs, slides, internal upgrades, plenty to choose from.

When I had my 19, I found it to be TOO small. Considering I've been using 1911s (6-7 of them), it was more natural to jump on the full-sized frame.

I really don't mind the 19s, but I wouldn't run one. Maybe a G26. Only because it's fucking cute as all hell.

Coming Soon.

Well I will be shortly getting my G19. I would love to do upgrades soon for it. I need opinions on which type to get since there are so many out there to choose from.
  1. Slide
  2. Recoil Spring
  3. High Blowoff Valve

So for slide, I am going to be safe and purchase from airsoftparts.ca. I am already getting the metal slide on it but I was looking at the PGC Metal Slide/Barrel Set KSC Glock 19. What's the difference between the PGC and the KSC stock one? I noticed that the PGC had the "Glock" trademark on it compared to the stock one.

Recoil spring there are two types; Hurricane or King Arms?

High Blowoff Valve there are also two types; Action high output valve Action high output valve or King Arms High Output Valve.

The other things that aren't listed that I was thinking of getting was a Proud Enhanced Plug Spring, Shooters Design Rocket Valve, Guarder Spring - Hammer for KSC.

Would those listed above be any good to invest in? I am not particularly too sure what exactly those do. I am guessing the hammer spring will increase the force to the striking of the hammer. The other two i am clueless but upgrades make me happy for some reason. I was not really able to upgrade my last two GBB. I had the KWA P226 PTP and the KWA M9 Tactical PTP. I just upgraded the springs and the P226's slide and grips. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. HORRAY FOR TAX REFUNDS!

eh ! Have you ever own the KSC Glock, if you never own one, you should go get one then you will see how crap is KJW compare to KSC. I have both of them, KJW Glock can't really hold candle of KSC.

For all of airsoft gun in Glock variant, only KSC that made the best Glock also mostly only Glock 19 which is design that has been upgrade a lots of time from company to get it done nice.

Here is the part I recommend you to upgrade on your Glock.

First, get a metal slide and barrel if you are able to get one, once you get both of them, then time to upgrade internal. There are only a few thing you might want to upgrade, the rest are just in case the stock is broken, plus it's not really necessary to upgrade though.

-Upgrade recoil spring to Guarder or King Arm,
-Upgrade the mag catch to Guarder one, would save you a lots of headache in longevity of usage
-Get a tightbore if you want more accuracy.
-Get a few extra hop up rubber, you will need to replace soon if you enjoy shooting a lots.

Only those little upgrade will make your Glock last for long more than you can think off.
