Niksan Defence NKS GL17 Tan Blow‑Back 4.5 mm Air Pistol

Niksan Defence NKS GL17 is a high-quality CO2-powered air pistol designed for steel BBs. Manufactured by the renowned Turkish arms producer, this model is a faithful replica of the iconic Glock 17. The slide is crafted from metal, while the frame and grip are made from durable polymer, accurately mirroring the original firearm’s construction. The moving slide features a blowback system that recoils with each shot, replicating the feel and function of a real handgun.

CO2 Air Pistol with Blowback Slide

This air pistol is powered by a 12g CO2 cartridge inserted into a magazine that fits inside the pistol grip. The magazine also holds 18 steel BBs in 4.46 mm caliber. With spare magazines on hand, reloading is quick and intuitive—just like handling a real firearm, even after a cartridge is depleted. The efficient gas system delivers a muzzle velocity of up to 110 m/s (360 fps). Each cartridge provides approximately 50 to 60 shots.

The built-in blowback system causes the slide to recoil with every shot. Once the magazine is emptied, the slide locks back automatically. This mechanism faithfully replicates the operation of a real pistol, enhancing the realism and shooting experience.

Fixed Sights and Accessory Rail

The pistol is equipped with fixed front and rear sights, featuring white dot markings for quicker target acquisition. A standard 22 mm RIS rail located beneath the barrel allows for the attachment of a laser sight or tactical flashlight.
