Description
The Glock 17 Gen 5 has been designed to allow easy operation at the range and in the field. The modern design of the Gen 5 Glock 17 features a textured grip without finger grooves, providing more versatility across a variety of shooters while also allowing customization with the available back straps. It features a flared mag-well for easier reloading, a reversible enlarged magazine catch, as well as an ambidextrous slide stop lever for both left and right-handed shooters. The rifling and the crown of the barrel were slightly modified for increased precision as well.
As previously mentioned, the G17 Gen 5 pistol is a safe and easy-to-use pistol. It features Glock’s Safe Action system which provides a consistent trigger pull from the first to the last round. The three automatic independently operating mechanical safeties are built into the fire control system of the pistol. Crafted with durability in mind, the Glock 17’s frame is made of polymer with hardened steel guides and features an ideal grip angle and low weight. The advanced surface treatment of the slide and the mechanically locked, cold-hammer-forged barrel results in optimal hardness by reducing wear and tear and it makes it corrosion-resistant, even when operating in saltwater conditions.
