Secutor Gladius Magna III 17 Series CO2 Blowback Pistol (Tan)
The Secutor Gladius Magna III is a CO2-powered blowback airsoft pistol built on the 17-series pattern, finished in tan. The 17-series layout is one of the most popular in airsoft, so the Magna III offers familiar handling with Secutor’s own custom styling.
Secutor Arms is known for custom-look replicas that stand out straight from the box, and the Gladius line is its take on the 17-series pistol. The tan finish suits desert and coyote loadouts and gives the pistol a distinctive look among standard black sidearms.
CO2 power
CO2 is stored in the magazine and delivers strong, consistent performance across a wide range of temperatures, which makes it a dependable choice for the UK’s cooler months when green gas can struggle. The blowback action moves the slide with every shot, giving a sharp, noticeable recoil and the sound of a working pistol.
CO2 is also convenient: a fresh capsule takes seconds to fit, and you can carry spares easily in a pouch.
Handling
The 17-series grip angle and controls are familiar to many shooters, so the pistol points naturally and is easy to learn. Its size makes it a practical holster sidearm for skirmishing, and the custom Secutor styling gives it more character than a plain service pistol. Check the product photos for the full details of the slide and frame.
Getting started
Fit a fresh CO2 capsule following the manual, tightening the piercing screw firmly so the seal is made in one movement. Load BBs, test-fire at a safe target and adjust the hop-up, if fitted, until shots fly flat.
Have the replica chronographed at your site before play, and remember to empty and remove the capsule at the end of the day.
Pistol skills
A sidearm earns its place when you can use it quickly. Practise drawing from your holster, bringing the sights up to your eye and taking a first shot, and practise magazine changes at home so they become second nature. A few minutes at the range before a game makes a big difference to confidence when your rifle runs dry.

Compatibility
This pistol follows the popular 17-series pattern. Holsters made for 17-series replicas are a good starting point, but fit can vary with lights and sights fitted, so check before you buy. Use spare magazines made for this model where possible, as magazines are not always interchangeable between brands. Check the manual for the correct CO2 capsule type.
Care and maintenance
Always fire off or release any remaining gas before taking a CO2 capsule out, and never leave a capsule in the magazine for long periods. Put a drop of silicone oil on the tip of each new capsule before fitting it, which helps keep the seals supple.
Wipe the moving parts with a light film of silicone oil now and then, clean the inner barrel with a rod and patch, and use quality seamless BBs. Store the replica dry and empty.
