Trigger Pull: The Trigger Pull is what I'd call a Double Action Trigger mainly because there's an Indexing of the BB from the Magazine into the Breach Area every time you pull the Trigger. This means that the Take-Up is longer thanks to a standard Glock Take-Up, and there's a little bit of Friction from the Mechanical Mechanism that indexes the BB, making the Trigger feel more like a Double Action Only Trigger.
Accuracy: I got really close to the Factory-Claimed FPS of 360 with an average of 347 FPS. In warmer conditions I'm sure I would've hit the claimed FPS or higher. For the Field Test, I placed 10 Shots into a Paper Target from 30 Feet down range using my standard Seated and Rested Shooting Position. I got right around a 2 Inch 10-Shot Group, not bad at all! It did shoot a bit high and to the left, which for some reason is common with most CO2 Action Airguns. I know it's not entirely me since others have commented that their Airguns shoot to the left in most cases. Elevation was pretty close at 30 Feet but just a tad high.
Build Quality: The Umarex Glock 19X seems to be really well-made. Fit and Finish are nice and Slide Wiggle is minimal. There is a bit of a Clanky Sound when the Slide cycles, but not as bad as the Umarex Glock 17 Gen 3. I also think the Coyote Finish is the nicest looking with its black on tan two-tone look.
Realism: The Umarex Glock 19X BB Pistol absolutely looks the part of a Glock 19X. Sitting on the Table and even holding it in your Hand, you're going to think it's the real deal until you drop the Magazine and see that it's a CO2 Mag. Mostly everything operates like a real Glock 17, but the Slide is not a full Blowback, meaning it only goes back about 3/4 as much as a real Glock 17 Slide would. One other noticeable difference is the ability to quickly Field Strip the Glock 19X. You'll need to remove a Pin since the Take-Down Tabs are non-functioning and molded into the Frame.

Comments: It’s great to see Umarex expanding their line of Glock Licensed Airguns, and the addition of the Glock 19X is welcome! Some of you aren't going to like the Semi-Blowback Action but it does mean you get higher FPS and more Shots per CO2 while still getting that simulated Recoil from the Blowback Action. I honestly think the Umarex Glock 19X is one of the most attractive Glock Airguns with its Coyote Tan Frame and Slide with Black Highlights. I also like the Compact Size for its shortened Frame and Slide over the Umarex Glock 17 Gen 3. So many to choose from now but I guess that's a good thing, or perhaps just get them all!
