Mikaris Posted December 7, 2022 Posted December 7, 2022 (edited) Hi all, I'm trying to figure out what the differences are between the V1 and V2 HK417s released by VFC/Umarex. So far, I believe the V2 has a mofset and a shorter barrel, but that's all I know about it. Does it still use the Ver2.2 gearbox, or did they move to using a standard V2 gearbox with the second version of the replica? patrolbase says that the gearbox version is a standard version 2, https://www.patrolbase.co.uk/umarex-h-and-k-hk417d-aeg but it doesnt even mention whether its the first or second version of the replica... looks to be the second due to the shorter barrel, but no idea. So, does anyone know the differences between these? Looking to tech on one, most likely a V1 but maybe I'll get a V2 for a dearer price provided there are changes that make it worthwhile Some links for reference V2 being sold - https://www.defconairsoft.co.uk/product/umarex-heckler-koch-rifle-417d-aeg-v2/ a V1 review - https://www.airsoftsniperforum.com/threads/vfc-hk417-review.7631/ another one https://imgur.com/a/Sgo4D Fire support V1 417 - https://www.fire-support.co.uk/product/umarex-vfc-heckler--koch-hk-hk417-recon-airsoft-rifle-aeg fire support V2 417 - https://www.fire-support.co.uk/product/vfc-umarex-hk417d-airsoft-gun-aeg Thanks Mika Edited December 7, 2022 by Mikaris
