Hey guys I picked up a factory refurbished G17 today. Couple questions, I think its a Gen 2 on a Gen 3 frame, Is that correct? It looks to be in really good shape, with some barrel ware. This is going to be a target/light competition gun, so with that in mind what is a good trigger upgrade? Looking for a 3.5 pound trigger. Thanks for the feedback!





Sorry for the last image's quality, if you can't see it, the picture shows a point where another pin hole couple be placed on the frame.

Looks like an early Gen 3 frame. My 1995 vintage Gen 2 17 only has one pin too.

What is the purpose of the 1 pin frames vs. the 2 pin frames?

The addition of the other pin came about due to the higher pressures of the .40 S&W cartridge.  Glock adopted it to all of their guns for uniformity in manufacturing.
