KWA A.T.P. Advanced Training Pistol airsoft review, with G17 comparison!

[Taxemicshadow]

I know kwa is a very good company and this gun would last quite a while but I have to ask, so I might not blow up $130. Will this last multiple years? I want to start getting into the SPORT of airsoft and going to events quite a bit. I want to get some good guns and my hfc darkhawk recently broke so im looking at other guns.

@Taxemicshadow i would get it i just orderd it today ive been playing over a year and hopefully it will last me a while.

@AirsoftWorld10 sorry, i already got a gun. now im going for a computer. need to convince my parents to let me take that money that is just sitting there in the bank out to help fund me. its like $200 and it earn 2 cents a year on interest so it's not going anywhere anytime.

adaptive training pistol

the small rubber piece in the lower frame is so there is no metal on metal contact making it more reliable. a simple fix for it is to super glue it, which is what KWA recommends

It is the ADDAPTIVE Training pistol not the ADVANCED Training pistol

I'm thinking of buying this pistol. Is it worth it? Did you have any problems with it?

Can you put the internals of the atp slide into the G17 slide?

[DarkstarOhio]

@billybrowning25 The chamber block is identical. The clyinder is different, but is completely compatible. I was able to install the ATP cylinder into my G17 and essentially upgrade it to an NS2 G17! The outer barrel on the ATP is slightly larger, and I was not able to get it to fit into the G17, however I did leave the plastic orange flash hider on the ATP barrel so that may be the issue. I could use my G17 inner and outer barrel in the ATP and it worked flawlessly.

Does the G17 slide fit and work on the ATP lower?

[DarkstarOhio]

@TheReaperNY No. I was not able to get my G17 slide to work on the ATP. I believe it has to do primarily with the recoil spring and the rubber bumper being in a different position. I believe I used the G17 recoil spring and buffer, and that may be why as it would give less room for the proper travel of the slide. If I manually cocked it, the gun would fire once, and then I believe the G17 slide on the ATP would just release the gas from the mag because it did not properly return to neutral.
