WE Europe EU17 Gen.3 GBB Pistol; Pre Two-Tone

WE has been well known for their top quality pistols over the years and continuing with that pedigree they bring us the EU17 Gen3, now available in jazzy pre two tone blue!

With heavier (dare I say better?)  recoil than some of WE's competitors, this high performance pistol is reliable and efficient when it comes to gas usage resulting in faster cycle rates than the average EU Series.

You will notice this particular model sports a high gloss blue slide, not only does this look slick and eye catching but it also means that the pistol can be bought with the need for a UKARA licence, and with it being factory painted to a high quality, go can get skirmishing as quick as this pistol can cycle! (almost).

Starting at the front of the pistol, we have the alloy barrel that sports a 12mm CW female thread at the tip, allowing tracer units, suppressors and other muzzle devices to be added with a 11mm to 14mm clockwise thread adapter.

On the right side of the slide, we can see the mock ejection port, through which we get a glimpse of the outer barrel, offering some flashy blue on black contrast. For added realism, the rear of the ejection port showcases a mock extractor as separate piece; While it serves no real function on an Airsoft GBB, but it adds a little aesthetic style seeing it moulded as a separate piece to more faithfully simulate the real world original.

The EU17 showcases a 20mm Picatinny pistol rail on the dust cover, which allows for the mounting of pistol torches, lasers and other 20mm Picatinny accessories. On the rail itself, we can see the serial number plate, which is also finished in black. This plate doubles as a trigger lock safety, primarily for transportation, and can be pushed backwards to engage, or forwards to release. 

At the rear of the frame rail, we find the trigger guard, which in classic EU series fashion is shaped to aid the use of a 'European grip' shooting style, with checkering on the front face for added grip. Within the trigger guard, we find, yep you guess it, the EU17's trigger, with two stage design. Working similarly to the real pistol, the trigger cannot be pressed if the separate centre section is not also pressed. This serves to reduce the chances of an accidental discharge, meaning unless your finger is on the trigger, the pistol will not fire.

Also featured on the frame of the EU17 an texture and extended release making it easier to find under fire, and making it easier to release the magazine from the weapon. The magazine well of the Gen.4 EU series has a slight flare to it, allowing the magazine to be loaded easily. An additional ergonomic feature are the textured surfaces featured all around the pistol construction, so that the pistol is practically glued to your hand when you hold it, gloves or no gloves. This eliminates the possibility of accidentally launching your pistol across the site when attempting a fast draw. Don't laugh, it happens!

The pistol features an adjustable Hop Up Unit, designed to increase the range and accuracy of your pistol. The hop-up works by touching the fired BBs with a small rubber contact patch which causes the BBs to spin and displace air around them as they travel, this creates a more stable and accurate flight pattern. The hop is fully adjustable to suit a wide range of BB weights and types. To access the Hop-up unit, simply pull the slide back, then with your thumb on the black back plate of the slide, push it forward and detach from the body.

If your wanting a reliable, gas efficient pistol in a slick ergonomic package. Look no further than the WE EU17..Additionally there is no UKARA required nor waiting for it to be painted as it's pre two toned a flashy bright blue so you can get skirmishing as quickly as you could rack the pistol's slide.

This is the perfect sidearm for any Airsoft player, allowing you to quickly and effectively protect yourself from any threat should your main weapon go down or the enemy engage you in a CQB Environment.

Special Instructions

The externals of the replica are metal where they would be on the real world gun. This includes things like the outer barrel, handguard, and receiver. If a real world gun has polymer parts then the gun will still be marked as full metal externals, examples of this would be an M4, where the Stock and Pistol grip are always made from Polymer.
