It's a low powered airsoft gun. If u like airsoft go for it but it
seems to be pretty expensive.

If you are a member of a rifle club go for a BB gun or a .177 pellet gun. You can get much better guns at lesser prices.

Please don't compare Airsoft to Airguns. Both serves different purpose. it's like saying don't go for a Hayabusa but get a bolero for less. Not a fair comparo. Hope the OP realizes the same.

That said, this R17 is a low tier chinese-to-the-core version with hardly any reviews to it & can be both good & bad at the same time. The OP now has the necessary links in his PM. It got an ABS outer barrel!

The Stark Arms G19 is the best Glock AS replica out there, all for under 150$. Risking it & import is the best way than getting into that magician's trap. #JustSaying

Zohaan,

IMO, In India, those airsoft imitations of the real deal are nothing but taking advantage of the enthusiasm of our gun deprived folks. 65k,indeed. If you are a member of a rifle club, you could import a world class air rifle such as a HW77K or an Air Arms TX200 for half the price. They not only last a life time, the accuracy is fantastic too. Great fun. I suggest you do a lot of research into what you want and reflect on why you want what you want. It will save a lot of pennies.

Best-
Vikram

65 k!!!!! Whoa. That's what I call daylight robbery. Ridiculous.

[zohaan]

Yeah man..! I was shocked too and started thinking "I looking for air pistol or 2nd hand maruti"

[panks]

My 2 bits. Dont rant about the cost because all of us know how its in india. If it was that easy why doesnt everybody import and be happy.
If u like it and have the spare cash, just pay for it. Dont think u will get it cheaper. Days are not far when we wont be able to own air rifles also in this country.

HI Guys,

I just came across this ad, someone selling GLOCKg19 (airsoft) on junglee , based out of Mumbai. see link below

I guess person has already imported them and price is low compared to other Indian sellers.
