The 17L's are available again. All of my local shops said that their distributors have non available, all were already allocated. I managed to secure one for myself. Good luck gents.

Gen 4 or still only Gen 3? If Glock makes a 24 Gen 4 I will have to buy one.
I love my 17L

I had one for a while but ended up selling it for what I paid for it. One nice thing, they hold their value very well. They shoot a lot like a 34, not muzzle heavy, just long. Holsters can be hard to find but not impossible. I had a DSG kydex for mine. I still have my 34 when I want a long barrel Glock.

Nice thing about Glock is you can make one holster fits all with a bit of engineering. |

It seems they all disappeared. There were a bunch showing available yesterday afternoon at multiple vendors, then all out of stock all of a sudden at all the same vendors. I hope they come back, I was seriously thinking about one.

Yes, I agree. I've owned two of these in the past but never thought they shot any better than a standard G17, or G19 for that matter. To each his own I guess.

Nice thing about Glock is you can make one holster fits all with a bit of engineering. I did that with a G34 Safariland holster. Sold the gun as it was an extra in my collection and it didn't really do anything better than my G17, but I still have the holster. |

Yes, that is exactly why Glock made the 34/35 - to fit the USPSA Production box and IDPA box. The 24 is still a great choice for USPSA Limited division and the 17L is good for 3 gun. Quoted:
Do the slides come with the cut out? Yes and there's also metal removed from the inside of the slide to reduce additional weight. |

They also look and feel like shit. Better texture Nah, I enjoy having skin, thank you very much. I carry IWB and my skin is still intact, perhaps you have sensitive skin? Dual stage recoil spring For .40, yes. For 9, it just removes the 20+ year track record of the single RSA. Gen4 RSA's have almost double the service life of the single RSA's on the Gen3, and are a improvement regardless of caliber. |
