Description.

The E&C EC17 G3 GBB Airsoft Pistol deserves a hard look, This is E&C’s answer to the G17—a faithful gas blowback recreation of the renowned Austrian service pistol seen in countless police forces, special units, and media portrayals. Known for making parts for some of the biggest names in the airsoft industry, East Crane (E&C) have brought their manufacturing precision into a package that's rock-solid and skirmish-ready straight out of the box.

Let’s get into the materials. The EC17 sticks to the tried-and-true formula—polymer lower frame for reduced carry weight and a metal slide for added realism and tactile function. That combination gives it the right heft without being fatiguing over long games. It feels properly balanced in the hand, sits well in most G17-compatible holsters, and features grip texturing that bites in just enough to stay secure during fast reloads or muddy game days.

On the outside, the EC17 carries itself with utilitarian confidence. The 3-dot low-profile sights provide quick target acquisition, and the slide serrations give solid traction even with gloves. A slide release catch, mag release, and integrated trigger safety are exactly where they should be—left side mounted, intuitive, and clicky. For added peace of mind when storing or transporting, E&C have included an under-barrel safety catch—a detail you don’t always see on GBBs at this price point.

Internally, this airsoft pistol is every bit the skirmish workhorse. It features an adjustable hop-up unit, letting you fine-tune BB trajectory depending on your loadout and engagement range. Whether you're on 0.20g for indoor or switching to heavier ammo outdoors, the hop keeps things dialled. On standard green gas, expect around 320 FPS, which puts it right in the sweet spot for most UK sites. It hits hard enough to matter in close quarters but stays under limits. The blowback is sharp and snappy, with a reciprocating metal slide that gives you that satisfying kick with every shot—something every gas blowback user looks for in their backup weapon.

The included 26-round magazine feeds reliably and locks in place with a confident click. The baseplate has a subtle plastic bump for better handling on reloads and adds a bit of shock absorption if it gets dropped during an intense skirmish. As expected, extra magazines are available separately (you’ll want more than one if you’re planning to run this as your primary in tight CQB arenas).

So, who’s this airsoft handgun for? Anyone wanting a reliable GBB sidearm that won’t break the bank but still delivers on realism and build quality. It’s ideal for new players building out their first serious kit, or more experienced skirmishers who need a dependable backup that works well in cold weather (as long as your gas is up to the job). Whether you're running a milsim loadout or just want something punchy to clear corners indoors, the EC17 won't let you down.

And if you spot the E&C EC17 G3 GBB Airsoft Pistol at a lower price elsewhere, don’t sweat it—use our Price Match Promise and we’ll beat it. Simple as that.
