perspective, so it’s a win for G&G at the end of the
day. Would I go out and buy one? I shall leave you
wondering about that…
Bill (No, the other one!): The GTP9 is very light and
quick trigger response, and it’s. Gas efficient with
multiple mags of BB’s per gas fill. It has an ergonomic
design for the grip and very cleaver hop adjuster tool
built into the base of the grip to adjust the hop down
the barrel externally. The magazine has a nice lock
down feature allowing the spring to be locked down
and fully retracted allowing easier BB loading. There’s
a solid feel to this pistol, with a clean cyclic action
of the slide, and a great balance. It comes in a great
presentation box with speed loader and metal badge
with model name and serial number embossed into
it. Ambidextrous-use-friendly, this pistol was a cold
weather performer with its ceramic whirl valve to
break up any icy deposits at the nozzle. Another little
slick trick is the ambidextrous magazine release built
into the bottom of the trigger well.
The Piranha though is an interesting split slide
design with only the rear third and thin sides sliding
back. Trigger response is a little slower but slightly
more positive feel compared to GTP-9. There’s a nice
little bullet key to adjust the hop but I feel this could
be easily lost on the field; in my opinion, the GTP-9
“in grip” solution is a better idea. The valve on the
magazine is a different design and felt a lot cleaner
and more positive when filling with minimal overspray.
With two full-power magazines of BBs on one fill
of gas, this pistol is very gas efficient, and the kick
from the split slide is very impressive, and is a novel
look for a slide on a GBB pistol. It will be interesting
to compare this against the mk2. It would be nice if
