Best Sounding GBBR Ever: Umarex VFC HK417 GBBR - RedWolf Airsoft RWTV

Yes, it sounds amazing. This is something VFC have done right as well as many other aspects. The kick is brutal, carrying it around will make you feel like you’re working out and did we already mention the kick? Reading about it is one thing, watch the episode to witness its true power!
Here is the link buy the HK417: tinyurl.com/mk2...

[@AlienPball]

Finally someone who states the manufacturer. Every other damn channel refuses to mention who makes the gun. Its always "The new blah blah blah form ELITE FORCE or balh blah blah from Umarex". Some of these channels really need to learn the difference between a manufacturer and a licensing company.

[@redwolfairsoft]

Of course! We really don't support rebranding at all. It stumps innovation.

[@hkmasterrace5732]

+1 man it really ticks me off when they say its from elite force. Its like a majority of the air soft companies have a bias for elite force. I'm glad to see that RWA is still sticking true to the OEM.

For people who keep hating on him for being an airsofter and assume he has never fired a real gun ( which he even said he has). You need to remember that ownership of firearms in china ( which were Redwolf is based ) by the citizens is illegal. So when people try to act tough and say shit like " Quit playing with toys and get a real gun ", they cant. Tbh, I've never fired a real gun in my life.

Only thing is you need to have an approved storage space at a shooting range to store it. Not allowed to house store it, or transport a gun without giving local law heads up.

i personally own this airsoft gun and its AMAZING. im having lots of fun with it, i do believe these 417 20round gbb mags hold more gas and dosent cool down that fast like the we m4 mags. i ve shot really quick semi shots at a target and havent felt it cooling down AT ALL until it was out of gas. really really nice gun, i d give it a 5/5 for the excellent mag that performs like no mag i ve seen, and because it slides into the 417 very very nicely. the cosmetics of this gun is outstanding, and just like in the video.. it sounds, hits your shoulders amazingly. thumbs up to VFC for making a better gbbr

[@redwolfairsoft]

Glad you agree! The sound is simply amazing and the gun feels so solid. It reminds us of the old KSC TMP which had the same wow effect on players from the 90's. Seriously this gun's bolt sounds like music. Using a car analogy, people buy Aston Martins and Maserati's because the exhaust sounds so good. They may not be the sharpest cars on the track but they sound amazing and look sexy. The same can be said about this Umarex VFC HK417. Not the most accurate or high performing Airsoft GBBR on the market. It has it's shortcomings in terms of performance and is a bit off the pace compared to some other GBBRs. But you don't buy this for the shooting accuracy and performance. You buy this for the beauty and the amazing sound it makes.

[@kael13]

+AirsoftGhillie As a paintballer, can you tell me what's the big deal about airsoft?

[@Mammongorothkar]

+Kael I can tell you. The BB's don't hurt and they can get away with cheating much easier in war games. That is the only real appeal to airsoft.

[@airsoftghillie3370]

the 1:1 scale of the guns, i know you can get mag fed markers (i am a paintballer, this is my old account) like the milsig rap4 tippmann, etc but they arent as realistic, for example the magazine. people play airsoft for realism and i will never understand speedsoft, if you are playing fast paced airsoft, you might as well play speedball

[@jackwang4150]

The real appeal to airsoft is that it is better than paintball. Jet del castillo, a former navy corpsman, said QUOTE:"I started off as a paintball player. I hated the mess and the insane costs of ammo. When I found airsoft, I immediately sold all of my paintball gear and bought a airsoft gun". $20 for 5000 extremely high quality airsoft pellets, $20 for 2000 paintball pellets. Most people in airsoft are respectable people who do not cheat. Airsoft guns are also more accurate, they can shoot farther, and they can look extremely realistic, unlike the unicorn laser beam cannons you guys use.

[@airsoftghillie3370]

+Jack Wang you dont play paintball for the realism unless you play milsim

[@pagansquaddie]

To be fair the reviewer has in no way had military training as I'm sure he would admit, when the thought of carrying rifle that weighs less than my mates lower leg when it decided to fly in a different direction to his body, when we patrolled across a legacy mine field in Kajaki, Helmand province. He's always trying to get himself 50% off whenever we go out shopping for garms, kit, or boots. 🤣 I'm sure with correct trigger drill and breathing, he would get that grouping right down. And he was firing a metal toy gun about 50/60 yds, open sight, so give him some slack. Great review, loved to hear a gbbr with a kick ass bolt assembly sound. I was thinking of getting one as I use gbbrs for simulation training in the UK (cheaper and no jumping through loads of reasons for owning a firearm like that on the FAC). Is the charging handle really weak ie, is it snap able due to poor build quality? Would it be possible to put the charging have from the PTS radian on it? Any ideas guys who own it as I appreciate this video is ancient.

[@J4NN3K]

A very very good GBB Airsoft Rifle indeed, i cannot say something else. I am proud owner of both, a VFC/Umarex HK 416 and 417. Both are very well manufactured and precise. Handling, feeling, recoil and sound are so amazing and it's a lot of fun using the rifles in the field. I spoke to Umarex (GER) because the 416's bolt broke twice allready, but they replaced and repaired it graciously. It seemes, the bolt unit needs a lot of Teflon/Gun-oil to run properly. The big pressure out of the magazines and the difference between the outer and inner temperature cause a lot of work for the entire bolt unit. If you ´can manage to replace the bolt and inner parts of the bolt unit from time to time, that might be the only thing you should maintain carefully and usual and you'll be so proud on and so happy with this gun !

[@johnb760]

To be honest with you, When I was in the army , not US, I used to have the M4 or AR15. The handle you pull to draw the bolt is actually flimsly. So I guess it is more realistic this way.

[@Gtodual]

That is neat that the bcg simulates recoil on an airsoft rifle. I must point out to this guy however, at 5:14, the charging handle being "flimsy" is actually anatomically correct of that platform. When you lock the bcg to the rear, it takes all resistance off of the charging handle thus making it loose. The charging handle is held in only by two bumps on each side that allow it to essentially float in the charging channel. As the buffer spring extends, the force is what makes the charging handle become solid feeling.

[@Fraggr92]

I just love how it goes KA-THUNK when you fire it! Now THAT'S how an airsoft gun should sound! :D

[@Mapanda]

I already own a HK417 of UMAREX but still watched. but still learnt from your advice like how to hold to mag-change. and agreed of the problem of the charging handle.

[@redwolfairsoft]

Yes the recoil is VERY strong. Big magazine = big gas reservoir = more gas can be used per shot to propel the bolt back = greater recoil. This really is the perfect gun to make a GBBR out of because of the massive magazine.

except for the fact its a 7.62 gun....

[@falconscoper4729]

To the kids hating on airsoft. No, it is not the real deal, nor is it cheap. But real veterans use airsoft to train. You know why? Because it is heck a real and it is the closes you will get to the real deal without killing yourself. And it is not about having the greatest and best either, but actually having the feeling of playing together, teamwork, and the social is the stuff that makes airsoft a great sport? So why should you come here and say that airsoft is not cool or just fucked up because it is not the real deal? Well if you think so, than you've missunderstood. And if I myself haven't missunderstood, than you are probably staying at your home as a keyboard warrior and finding something you can hate on because you don't have the mental abillity to think straight.

[@legnd300]

Just received this gun, but dam I was so disappointed that it was faulty. Does not load the BB into the chamber, only knocks it out of the mag just enough to get into the crevice between the mag and gun so when I try to release the mag it is annoyingly difficult because I have to use a hammer to press on the release so I can retrieve the mag. This along with a gas leakage after I finished my first mag. When I first had this problem I had it fully filled so when the gas leakage happened out of nowhere there was what I would describe as nitric oxide shooting out of everywhere from inside the gun. I checked the bod for deliverer damages but the box was in great shape. Not sure what the main causes of these are, but i am definitely going to contact support to see what they can do for me here.

[@tosic4097]

Pretty similar kick and sound to a .22, might even have a little more kick per shot.

[@GooglyEyedJoe]

Great rifle unfortunately 20rd Mags that are £50 each is a real killer for this gun, either the mags need to get cheaper or mag sizes need to increase for this to be a considerable skirmish weapon even in extreme mil-sim events. (Btw I get that they probably wanted to keep it realistic with the real steel 20rd mag and give you more gas possiblity but I'd prefer 30-40rd long custom mag than a 20rd mag you have to refill about 3 times in mid-battle because it has enough gas just not enough ammo. Hopefully in future they'll make this but if not I'll have to stick with an AEG and possibly buy this later on for aesthetic reasons although to be able to use this in the field would be great.

[@toastbusters7797]

Finally a REAL Hechlar and Koch licensed rifle. But my only request for you guys at red wolf, (just a pet peeve of mine it isn't very important, you guys are awesome anyway) Can you please stop holding weapons by the magazine or the mag-well? You judge weapons by the accuracy, yet ANY weapon, airsoft, paintball, or real, are incredibly inaccurate when held by the mag/mag-well. The last weapon I think was made to use the magazine as a hand grip was the S.T.E.N gun from WWII. Like I said I am not bitching at you, it just is a bit odd in my mind to judge a weapon by the accuracy without a proper grip.

[@lagstyre]

Uhhh I don't think he was holding the magwell during the accuracy test. He was only holding the bolt stop firing blanks when he mentioned looking down the sights. That kinda requires you to hold the magwell

[@toastbusters7797]

lagstyre This is gunna be a long comment xD... I know he wasn't, I just mean in general, I have seen many RedWolf videos of firing tests for guns that have a grip that is away from the magazine, the Uzi for example. The grip is there for a reason, both in real life and in airsoft. In both airsoft and in real life, the grip is there to maintain accuracy. In real life, holding a gun by the magazine can actually pull the magazine out during operation, a shell could be left within the chamber and fire without the magazine in place, older weapons such as the MP40 could explode in the user's hand and both destroy the gun, and kill the user when this happens. Other times (this is more common) the weapon could fire that last shell and the blow-back mechanism would fail to send the bolt back and instead push the hot gasses out of the mag-well, both burning the user and destroying the bolt. Rendering the gun completely useless and dangerous to fire again, if the bolt doesn't break when this happens, it will crack and then explode during the next use. This actually can happen from a lot of use as well. I had a .38 special S&W snub nose, I fired it once and a piece of the cylinder went inches from my hand, the gun jammed and required a new cylinder. This was only a .38. If I where using a .223 or 5.56 like the gun in this video, it would have gone ballistic and I most likely wouldn't have my right arm. If you own any magazine fed firearms, BE CAREFUL PLEASE!

[@Bru741iX]

Toast Busters Comparing a gas-piston AR based rifle, with an UZI, or MP40, has to be next to the most stupid thing i've seen today. You cant compare two SMG's with an assualt rifle, yet alone gas-piston rifles with open bolt SMG's. And casings exploding arent that dangerous, they wont rip off your arm or hands. I've seen pictures of soldiers who got hit with shrapnel from exploded .50 BMG cases, and all they got were minor cuts and bruises. And about the mag-grip. It's a common grip for CQC, or close quarter combat, and all soldiers using AR based rifles are taught that grip. And even if you have a case exploding in the AR based rifles, typically the magazine will just pop out of the gun. The AR based rifles have forged aluminium recievers, which can soak up a lot of force, so i wouldnt worry about a case exploding inside if the gun. But secondly about the mag-well grip: Even if it's unsafe irl, this is freaking airsoft! I have yet to see a 6mm BB blow up with the force to rip someones wrist in half, or sever an arm!

[@toastbusters7797]

***** I'm not saying that it's dangerous with airsoft guns, I'm saying it's dangerous with real guns. With an airsoft gun it will only effect the accuracy, also it looks bad. xD

[@toastbusters7797]

***** Also the M4 and newer M4 style rifles have forged aluminum receivers. The AR-15 has a steel receiver when you buy one stock. but you can buy an aluminum receiver kit for around $150 but you don't exactly need one unless you use it a lot or have a conversion kit that makes the weapon fire above a 5.56 N.A.T.O or .223 but other than that it is pretty useless. Also before you comment with a snide remark like that, you should read the comment twice to make sure that they are saying what you think they are saying. Just a thought. I have had an interest in firearm history ever since I was 3. If you are trying to anger or annoy me, you are failing.

So that grouping wasent the guns fault if you looked at his shots they were in a perfect circle witch means he was staring at his target while shooting. Its pretty common when people shoot real guns.

[@czarsubjects]

which BB bullet would be best for this AR

[@Wintervixen96]

Well talking about the charging handle, it's like that on the real gun as well even the flimsyness you are adressing why? i dunno HK is kinda weird sometimes so be carefull with that.

[@homan1767]

Hello Guys... Is there any way to upgrade this gun to HPA, firing a larger Mag size, but still keeping that recoil ? Would fitting a SMP or Polarstar do the business? any suggestions or help would be ace. Keep up the good work.

[@shane5186]

[@mattiaslandstrom5830]

Superenoying music

[@masonlo7603]

Or just pull the bolt back and adjust it from the dust cover?

[@milojimenez3704]

Which one has more recoil this one or the WE AK PMC??? I mean the AK has a full travel bolt but compared to this one is it higher???

[@WorstScenarios]

Hey tim for teating accuracy have you ever thought about usinh clamps or something so the accuracy depends on the gun not human error. Oh and how common would it be to see a gas vfc hk417 in the United States?

[@TimWetherspoon]

I've yet to see one on the fields I go to. I usually go 3-4 times a month.

[@WorstScenarios]

gtgtgtgtgt123456789 yea i figured it would be uncommon in the us. airsplat sells it but airsplat sucks

[@GunnShineState]

Jedi Grand Master Yoda airsplat does not have this rifle on their website

[@GunnShineState]

Jedi Grand Master Yoda Damn thanks! I plan for this to be my next battle Rifle!

[@FlyingGrunt28]

OMG... its beautiful

[@pofrani]

Thanks for this video - it's sparked my interest in getting back into Airsoft games again. I just purchased some lipos for my M4 S System and it rocks! Can anyone tell me where to get this rifle? Especially in the UK? Thanks

[@justanotherasian4395]

Patrick Frani might be a few years late but you can find these on evike, airsoftgi, redwolf, and a few other companies

[@pofrani]

@@justanotherasian4395 Thanks but yes, definitely late! :oP I purchased one back in 2014. I've only taken it to a skirmish in 2 occasion tho and both times only fired once on each trip!

[@Bundesfaust]

Take my money™

[@gogeo1349]

originally.. . the hk417 was a 20inch marksman rifle

[@KrystoHartge]

i have the electric version, is it possible to get gas internals for it? it would be nice if VFC used same gun shell

[@iota-09]

Ever thought about doing a chrono test for joule? 'Cause you know, not all countries/nations are joule limit-free.

[@BubbleFroth]

you can convert the velocity (fps) into energy (joules) since the mass of the BB is stated (0.2g). At ~360fps with 0.2g BBs, that would mean about 1.2J of kinetic energy

[@Matt_Nguyen]

I personally don't care about looks, if it works good, then great

[@eduardm4988]

How old was tim when got his first airsoft gun and was it EBB, GBB, or spring loaded. I am 11 and want to start buying some airsoft guns! Can you please help! :D

[@avixka7751]

It was 8 years ago when he was 26-8=18?, I started playing when I'm 12. Now I'm 14
