In this Table Top Review, we’re taking a detailed look at the KWC 18 CO2 Blowback Steel BB Pistol. This model is part of KWC’s long-running lineup of Glock-style pistols—some licensed through Umarex and others, like this one, produced without official Glock markings but clearly inspired by the platform.

As always, this is a Table Top Review only. A full Shooting / Field Test Video will follow shortly.

I've reviewed many Glock-style CO2 blowback pistols over the years—Gen 3, Gen 4, Gen 5, Airsoft, Steel BB, full blowback, semi-blowback—you name it. KWC manufactures a large percentage of these frames and blowback systems, often for Umarex’s officially licensed Glock models. So while this KWC 18 isn’t a licensed Glock, it’s built by the same people behind many of the Umarex-branded models.

Let’s get into the details, compare it briefly to a couple of Umarex Glock versions, and then talk pros and cons.

Comparison to Umarex Glock Models

To give this pistol some context, here’s how it stacks up against a couple of current Umarex licensed Glock variants:

Umarex Glock 17 Gen 5 (Semi-Blowback)

• Has the MOS-style removable optic plate

• Features a semi-blowback system with shorter slide travel

• More efficient gas usage, higher FPS

• Double-action-style trigger (not Glock-accurate)

Umarex Glock 17 Gen 4 (Full Blowback)

• Full blowback with full travel slide

• Uses the same style of full-size dropout metal magazine

• Much closer in function to the KWC 18

• Fully licensed Glock markings

KWC 18

• Same full-blowback feel as the Gen 4

• No Glock markings (unlicensed)

• Adds full auto mode, which the Glock 17 models do not have

• Very similar weight, ergonomics, and trigger feel

• Slightly different slide shape, trigger guard, and frame cuts to avoid trademark conflict

If you’ve handled Umarex Glock models, this KWC 18 will feel instantly familiar.

Walk Around

The KWC 18 is extremely Glock-like in shape and ergonomics, with only small cosmetic changes:

• Slightly longer and differently shaped slide cuts

• Altered trigger guard shape

• Modified rail and frame geometry

• No Glock-branded markings anywhere

Controls are where you expect them to be:

• Slide catch/release on the left

• Trigger safety

• Takedown levers in the Glock position

• Selector switch for Semi / Full Auto just above the trigger area on the left side

• Under-barrel safety disguised as a serial number plate

Sights are classic Glock style:

• White dot front

• White “goalpost” style rear

The full-size dropout metal magazine fits tightly and locks back after the last shot. The slide feel is excellent—strong spring tension, clean metal-on-metal sound, no cheap clanking.

Field Strip

Field stripping is Glock-simple:

1. Lock slide slightly back

2. Pull both takedown tabs down

3. Slide comes forward and off

(Note: KWC pistols are often tight from factory, so the first removal may require a solid tap.)

Inside you’ll find:

• Full metal slide

• Return spring/guide

• Removable inner barrel

• Accessible hop-up wheel

• Fire control components including the semi/full auto mechanism

Reassembly is straightforward once parts are aligned correctly.

Pros

• Excellent weight and feel – solid, realistic, and well-balanced

• Full blowback provides snappy recoil and realistic slide movement

• Single-action Glock-like trigger is short, light, and crisp

• Full-size metal magazine for realistic reloads

• Semi & Full Auto modes (rare for BB pistols)

• Adjustable hop-up — unusual but useful for slight elevation tuning

• Field strippable, great for maintenance and realism

• Picatinny rail for lights/lasers

• Good trainer option for Glock owners thanks to similar ergonomics

• Minimal branding gives it a clean tactical look

Cons

• Full blowback reduces FPS and CO2 efficiency

• Full auto burns CO2 extremely fast

  • Expect maybe one strong magazine and a partial second depending on temperature

• CO2 cooling effects occur quickly during rapid fire

• Tight factory tolerances make the first field strip a bit stiff

• No official Glock markings (a con only if you want licensed branding)

Final Thoughts

The KWC 18 CO2 Blowback Steel BB Pistol is a very solid performer for anyone who wants a Glock-style CO2 pistol with full blowback realism—and especially for those who want the fun of full auto.

The build quality is strong, trigger feel is excellent, the slide operation is smooth, and the ergonomics match real Glock pistols closely enough to make this a legitimate training or plinking option.

If you already own Umarex Glocks, this model will fit naturally into your collection and may even share some compatible magazines (listed as AAKC MM19).

A full Shooting / Field Test Review is coming soon—these KWC/Umarex Glock-pattern pistols are always a blast to shoot.

Wow, two mystery boxes this time to unpack and see what’s inside! I did have a bit of an idea that there was going to be two new BB Blowback CO2 Glocks from Umarex, the same ones I checked out at this years SHOT Show. There was also some more Air Pistols from various companies. One from Novritsch, the SSX23 NBB Gas Airsoft Pistol, that looked like it was Blowback as the slide does cycles. The Daisy 415 Powerline CO2 BB Pistol, a fairly simplistic Air Pistol, the Vigilante Dual Ammo CO2 BB/Pellet Revolver, I’m pretty sure I have visited before from Crosman. And one more item from Umarex, the Umarex Ruger P345 CO2 NBB Airsoft Pistol keeping to the basic low cost theme.

I also got a few accessor items from a company called GEAR STOCK, Some CO2 in 12 and 88 gram along with some 6mm aluminum Airsoft BB’s. A very cool rechargeable red and green laser that comes in a nice hard shell case and it has a picatinny rail on the bottom she you can stack a second accessory under it.

Here are some links and specs for the Airguns I show off in this mystery box video:

In this Unboxing Video I checkout a mid sized mystery box and find some new products inside that I will be making future Table Top and Field Test Shooting Videos for. In this Unboxing Preview Video I mainly talk a look at each item mostly for the fist time and I go over some of the basics for each of them. IN my upcoming full review videos I will go way more into detail so make sure to watch those videos when they come out.

So what did I get in this months box of goodies? The first item I unpacked was the KJWorks 1911-TBC CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol. A firmly traditional 1911 with a single stack magazine configuration at least in terms of external size. I am pretty sure the actual Airsoft BB’s will stack side by side to some degre as it does hold 24 rounds. It also comes with a barrel extension and the ability to add a much suppresser to it to cover the barrel extension I would imagine. It is also available in an OD green receiver version.

View fullsize

The next item I grabbed from the box was the NcSTAR FlipDot Mod. 02 Flip-up Red Dot Sight specifically designed with a MOS compatible mounting plate for Glock Pistols like the new Umarex Glocks I checked out at this years SHOT Show. You can mount this compact Flip-up Red Dot sight directly to the slide of these new Glocks and it also comes with some adaptor plate option for attaching it to a Picatinny Rail.

View fullsize

The next item I took a look at was the Umarex Combat Zone Enforcer Airsoft Pistol. A low cost adn simplistic mostly plastic CO2 powered lightweight Airgun with an all metal 15 round stick magazine and a 400 fps claimed velocity. It’s not going to be the most exciting Airgun but there is very little to go wrong and being so light weight makes it super durable in the even of a drop or fall.

View fullsize

Last but perhaps the oust interesting item that came in this months mystery box was the G&G ARP9 3.0P AEG Airsoft Rifle. I kind of butchered the name but I do talk a pretty good look at it in they video. The G&G ARP9 3.0P is a compact AEG Rifle (at least with the stock folded out). It has a unique magazine where the Airsoft BB’s load into 4 separate channels, I am assuming this helps to get more ammo in the magazine (300 rounds) and make it smoother so hopefully less or no jamming. The G&G ARP9 3.0P feels solid in the hand and well made, it also has a claimed velocity of 370 fps which is perfect.

I look forward to making my full Table Top and Shooting Review videos of each of these items so make sure to check back if you are interested in any of them…

This will be my final Interview Video for SHOT Show 2025. I did get to talk with someone from Crosman but the Daisy rep was not around totally with so I did my best to talk about a couple of the Daisy products that I felt were interesting. If you are not aware, Crosman and Daisy have now joined forces together along with Gamo, Benjamin and SPLATRBALL so all of these product were on display at the Crosman Daisy Booth. I focussed on the Crosman M1 Full Auto Carbine and their updated all black ST1 Full Auto BB Rifle. We then took a look at some of the Game Face Airsoft Products and then I performed my own Interview/Review for Daisy talking about the Woodland Trail Model 1911 and Model 25 Lever and Pump Action BB Rifles.

We recently picked up the Steambow line of Compact Crossbows and I have already made a Table Top Review for some of their products. So far I had not shot or tested any of the Steambow product line yet and so it was nice to get the chance to shoot a few different models over in the Archery Pavilion at SHOT Show and also talk with Tobias their product specialist. I did get the chance to drop by the Steambow Booth and talked with the Steambow team and founder about some of their new products coming out including a new Rubber Ball crossbow they are working on that should be coming out in the near future.

I had the pleasure of interviewing Mark from Umarex again at SHOT Show 2025 and Mark went over some of the new products from Umarex coming out this year. Make started of by showing me two new MOS (Modular Optic System) Gen 5 Glocks in a Glock 17 and Glock 19 versions. Both come with Umarex based red dot sights but you can change them up for something different if you choose to down the road. We then took a look at the new Umarex AER16 AR AEG Rifle in 4.5mm Steel BB rather than 6mm Airsoft similar to the Barra e400 that came out last year. In a nutshell it is a battery/spring operated 4.5mm Steel BB Full Auto AR Replica. Mark then showed us some A&L AK based AEG Airsoft Rifles they are now distributing that feature Full steel body construction with high-quality real laminated wood handguard and skeletal folding stocks. These are one to one in terms of size and weight adn very detailed. We then finished up the interview taking a look at the Legends Saddle Lever Action Shell Loading Rifle and the Umarex Smith & Wesson Competitor Shell Loading revolver.

Luckily I was able to find some time with James again this year and James gave us all the new details on some of the KWA updated and new products. Starting with the KWA ATP-Z Blowback Airsoft Training Pistol added recently to the KWA lineup, James also showed us a few versatile Carbine Pistol Kits made specifically for the ATP-Z and ATP-GT Pistols. Not yet fully released, James went over their updated TAC-9 hopefully coming out this year. We then got a nice tour of the updated Radian Model 1 AEG Airsoft Rifle with built in recoil system also built into KWA’s Q10 AEG Airsoft Rifle.

I spoke with Jacob from Barra and he went over a lot of new products adn updated products Barra is introducing this year. We discussed some new PCP Air Rifles with Canada import options, Jacob went over some new updates to their 1866 Muti-pump BB and Pellet Lever Action Rifle, and he went over Barra’s Gen 2 400e AEG BB rifle which include a higher capacity magazine, an increased velocity and unproved internal tolerances for smoother BB flow. Lastly Barra is introducing high grade 4.5mm BB’s that a re procession ground to be more uniform for improved accuracy and better BB feeding. Great for full auto guns.

It was nice to run into ASG (Action Sports Games) right away and talk with Bob for ASG. Bob always has a great understanding of the ASG product line and each year I Interview him and find out all the news and updated product in the ASG lineup. This year Bob’s goes over the new ASG CZ P-10 C CO2 Blowback BB Pistol, the Action Army C1 Pro Bolt Action CO2 Airsoft Rifle, ASG’s new Frag Impact Sound Grenades, along with some new additions to the Shadow 2 Series of Airsoft Pistols. Was a great start to this years SHOT Show 2025!

I’m back from SHOT Show 2025 Las Vegas and finished transferring and uploading all the video from all the cameras we shot it all on. We had a great time, we met a lot of great folks at the booths and it’s now time to put it all together and make some videos for everyone so I can share the experience!

I always like to put out a “Teaser Video” with some quick clips of the entire experience including some of the travels, a bit of the resort we stayed at, shots of Vegas and of course lots of the SHOT Show 2025 experience along with the booths we visited. Enjoy this quick preview and stay posted for my upcoming Interview Videos shortly…

This video was made right at the end of December 2024 but I am posting it in the new year so we will call it a late December video… That makes two Mystery Box Videos for December 2024 which means a lot of new products on my plate to review this new year. Hopefully I can get a bunch of them done before I head out to SHOT Show this year in a couple of weeks as I will have a lot of videos and interviews to post for SHOT Show as is always the case when I get back.

At least in this unboxing videos I can give you an idea of some of the new products we have in the Replica Airgun online Stores usually in both the Canada and the US Replica Airgun Stores. In this Unboxing Video I received 5 new products to show you. A Less Lethal Pistol and Spring Piston BB Pistol from Umarex, a Carbine Airsoft Rifle from KJWorks, a Multi-barrel super compact Airgun from Alias Airguns out of Canada, and Bug Exterminator from a company called Skell Inc. Here are some of the basics for each of them:

Many Canadians ask about options for what they perhaps could use for home defense since we are not allowed to really use any kind of a weapon to defend ourselves. A product classified as “Less Lethal” may be of interest to people living in Canada. I interviewed Byrna, just such a company that offers alternatives to standard “Lethal Interventions” for self protection and Josh from Byrna was kind enough to go over their pistol and rifle offerings specifically built to shoot paintball type ammunition for the purpose of stopping bad guys.

I am hoping this is a product we will be able to add to our online Replica Airgun Stores, as they do tick the boxes for import into Canada such as shooting well under 500 fps, yet having the ability to cause serious injury so as to allow them to be considered a non regulated firearm.

I don’t believe I have ever interviewed EKOL at SHOT Show in the past. I have dropped by their booth and taken a look at their product line and chatted but this year EKOL had some new and interesting products that I feel fit in nicely with Replica Airguns products and Replica Airgun enthusiasts.

In this EKOL SHOT Show 2024 Interview Omer from EKOL goes over three Airguns that are new for this year. The EKOL ES P92 which is a CO2 BB Blowback Beretta 92 Replica but rather than rebrand a KWC made version, EKOL makes their own in their own factory and it is very unique compared to other CO2 BB Blowback Beretta 92’s on the market.

Another product form EKOL based on the ES P92 Pistol is the EKOL ES P95B which I would call an SMG or submachine gun with a folding stock, but it only shoots in semi auto and is based off of EKOL’s ES 92 mechanically.

Lastly, Omer showed me one of their Replica Pellet Rifles, the EKOL AK which is a break barrel AK Replica Spring Piston Pellet Rifle that really looks a lot like an AK 47. EKOL also makes a very believable AR/M16 Break Barrel Pellet Rifle as well!

We have not carried much if any of the EKOL product line over the last few years so hopefully we can get some of these into our Online Replica Airguns Stores as they should even be legal for import into Canada.

This year at the KWA Booth I had the pleasure of running into John, and we went over a bunch of new items KWA had on display. John was even rocking a similar pair of Ray Ban Meta AI Glasses which made us look a little bit like twins…

In this KWA SHOT Show Interview John higgled the following products from KWA: The KWA ATP-Z and ATP-CT Optics Ready GBB AIrsoft Pistols which are convertible to SMG versions, along with a new prototype TAC-9 GBB Airsoft Rifle.

KWA AIrsoft products have always been one of favoriteAirsoft guns for their quality, looks and performance. They tend to offer a lot of Gas Blowback options which I really appreciate as a Replica AIrgun Collector.

It’s alwasy nice to have a chat with Bob at ASG, I have been interviewing him for years now and really missed not being at SHOT Show the last three years. As always, Bob really knows the ASG product line inside and out and took us through some of the new products and changes to the ASG lineup in 2024.

Some of the products include: The ASG CZ P-10 C CO2 Blowback Airsoft Pistol, the Steyr L9-A2 CO2/Gas Blowback Airsoft Pistol, the USW Gas Blowback Airsoft Pistol, the new Hybrid Airsoft line including the CO2 Blowback H-22 and the AEG H-15, the ICS Ape SE AEG Airsoft Rifle, and lastly the ICS Carnotaurus, Legacy, ACME High-Capa Pistol Series.

I am looking forward to get my hands-on many of these new ASG products and making reviews for everyone to checkout in the near future…

I’m pretty sure I have never made an Interview for Barra before in any of my past SHOT Show Videos, so I was really happy when I visited their booth and discovered a bunch of really great new products to talk about with GEO. Like many other Airgun companies, Barra does incorporate rebranded products from other manufacturer popular Airguns, but they also have some unique products I have never seen before. They are either working really closely with dedicated manufacturing companies or making these items in house. Either way it’s great to see new and interesting products.

Some of the products Geo went over with me in this SHOT Show 2024 Barra Interview where: The Barra CO2 1866 Lever Action Rifle, some Rifled Pellet Barrel Kits for the Schofield Revolver and 1866 Rifle, the 1858 CO2 BB Revolver, the 357 Shell Loading CO2 Revolver, the 400 AEG Airsoft Rifle and two new nameless Airguns they are still working on and perfecting, a full Blowback Competition Style BB/Airsoft Pistol and a compact AEG Airsoft Rifle.

It was great talking with the team over at the Barra Booth and I look forward to testing out their new items as they become available.

I’m back from SHOT Show 2024 and I always like to start off my series of SHOT Show Interview videos with a Teaser Video that not only shows off a few new guns but also gives everyone a vibe of what it feels like to visit Las Vegas and SHOT Show. I can only show you so much because as you know what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas…

I did get the chance to interview several Airgun Companies that I will be putting together Interview Videos for, including Umarex, ASG, KWA, Barra, EKOL and Byrna. Unfortunately Sig Sauer is no longer attending SHOT Show and Crosman had significantly reduced the focus of their booth and really did not have much in the way of Replica Airguns to show.

I have been using camera glasses of some sort since the beginning with my www.ReplicaAirguns.com channel, starting off with actual ski type goggles that had a built in camera which was not ideal as they were super bulky. I did eventually get some camera glasses that where actual glasses and looked more or less like oversized sunglasses without the dark lenses but they where a big improvement over the ski goggles I was using. For the past 2-3 years I have been using my iVue Vista Camera Glasses for making these videos and they have worked pretty well for the most part but none of the camera glasses I have used in the past have any type of image stabilization which does make for some erratic video head movement.

So when I came across the Ray Ban Meta AI Smart Glasses, which I quickly learned and saw had some decent stabilization in them I thought maybe it's time to upgrade my camera glasses. The Ray Ban Meta AI Smart Glasses also do a lot more than typical Camera glasses. Not only do they have a stabilized 12mp camera with 1080p+ resolution, the Ray Ban Meta AI Smart Glasses has some very good audio for recording and hearing with a 5 mic setup and some actual usable in arm speakers. On top of the superior audio, the Ray Ban Meta's have "Hey Meta" which is like Siri or Google Assistant but it can also tap into Meta AI and do even more in terms of voice commands. You will even be able to look at something and ask Meta what you are looking at and Meta will tell you all about it.

View fullsize

I do hope to use the Ray Ban Meta AI Smart Glasses for a lot more than when I do my Replica Airguns Shooting Videos, I hope to use them for more spontaneous video recording on my www.GetFitOver40.com channel since they are super easy to use and you always have them ready to record.

I did order the Sunglass version but regretted it almost immediately, and so I have ordered the transitions lens version so I can use my Ray Ban Meta's both inside and out. The other negative feature for me is that the video camera records in prorate mode only and for only up to 1 minute in length. I do think I can work with this limitation as the video quality is good enough to allow for zooming and cropping when need be, and I should be able to work around the 1 minute recording time limitation by recording more selectively and simply starting another 1 min video when I need for additional time.

In this Ray Ban Meta AI Smart Glasses video, watch me Unbox, Setup and record some initial videos. I also talk a bit about why I got them and what my initial thoughts are after checking them out.

This time I have a tiny Mystery Box to unpack and show you guys, this time there are only two pistols, one is a Spring Piston Single Shot .177 Caliber Pellet Pistol and the other is a 6mm Airsoft Blowback BB Pistol, both are Licensed Replicas for Umarex. If you want to find out more about each Air Pistol then make sure to watch this Mystery Box Unboxing Preview Video!

This will be my only video this week as I am in what is called Peak Week in preparation for the Vancouver Fall Calssic Fitness show I am competing in this upcoming weekend. Peak Week really takes a lot out of me and is rather time consuming with the physical activity I am doing and daily blog styled videos I am posting for my other channel www.GetFitOver40.com.

If you are interested in what I do fitness wise then checkout that channel and follow me along this week as I hope to kick some but competing against dudes half my age.
