Umarex has done a pretty good job putting the gun together. This makes the gun pretty sturdy and durable but still lightweight and easy to hold and handle for extended periods of time compared to those heavier, steel or full aluminum slides. Like other models in the Umarex Glock line, the 18C is a gas blowback airsoft pistol that sports an aluminum alloy slide set on top of a nylon-reinforced polymer frame. How Well Does the Umarex Glock 18C Perform as a Gas Blowback Airsoft Pistol? Build-quality and construction Since this is an official Glock model, collectors will be pleased to know that it does come with all the trades you might expect…and more. This includes the safety-integrated Glock trigger, the dual takedown levers, the U-shaped sights and, of course, the characteristic, oversized selector switch. In terms of its looks, all of the switches and details are where they should be on the Umarex and, importantly, actually work. ![]() That said, as it is made of more typical airsoft materials, rather than the advanced composites used by Glock, it is actually slightly heavier than the real steel 18C, a quirk of design that is a bit unusual in the airsoft world. ![]() Since this is based on a Glock pistol, the Umarex G18C’s airsoft-style mixed metal/polymer construction actually works in its favor, replicating the real steel version’s steel and Polymer 2 build. Umarex has done an excellent job overall of matching the 18C closely in terms of its weight, length and dimensions, being a pretty 1:1 replication down to the iconic oversized vent ports cut out of the top of the slide. The Umarex Glock 18C is an officially licensed model, and as such it is a very close replica of a real steel Glock.

Metal slide with nylon-reinforced polymer frame – Gen 3 To find out if the Umarex 18C is worth a spot in your airsoft pistol collection, we decided to check it out for ourselves. ![]() The Umarex 18C is an officially licensed airsoft replica, one of the most true to life and, like its smaller siblings, the G17 and the G19X, it has garnered some attention and amassed its share of fans in the airsoft world over the years. Unfortunately, the Glock 18C isn’t a very easy gun to get your hands on even in the United States – being an automatic pistol there are pretty strict laws that restrict its sale to civilians.Īirsoft enthusiasts and collectors, however, don’t have to worry about it and can easily get their hands on a replica of this powerhouse Glock. Similar in style to the venerable G17, the 18 is actually a fully-automatic model capable of laying down up to 1200 9mm rounds per minute. The Glock 18 is, arguably, one of the most eyebrow-raising Glocks out there. ❌ Constant automatic fire can strain some parts over time ✅ Officially licensed with Glock trademarks ![]()
