Gent's,
Finally pulled the trigger (no pun intended) on one of these bad boys  The trigger on this one is the best of all my Glocks...unbelievably crisp and light!

I was so excited to finally get one back in November. Now I have shot only 100rds through it, but pissed to say it reliably ejects the cases up and strait back 1 to 3 feet. So I can either watch them fall through my sight picture or take one to the head every dam time. My other glocks don't do this, including a gen4 26.
Very stupid problem for glock to not have straighten out by now, been reading complaints about BTF for over a year. Any 100% solution to this without sending it back? |

those things are like manatees to me... so ugly and weird they are good looking! I don't like Glocks but this appeals to me. The accuracy between the two is very noticeable for a handgun. I've heard of guys taking down 400 lb. Hogs in Texas with with G20L's (10mm) and G23L's chambered in .357 Sig. IMO, you can't go wrong with a Glock Model L in any caliber. And BTW, I'm not a Glock Fan Boi (however I do own one G30 and I like it).

I walked up on one and my rifle was slung over my back and he started to move toward me so I drew my G32 and before I could even get my second hand on the pistol I fired and hit the hog in the face\head the round went through the brain down the neck and ended up in the torso and that was that. I think had I not taken a shit earlier that morning I might have filled my pants up. |

What lb. recoil spring is on the 17L? How much heavier is the 17L slide than the 17? Maybe a lighter recoil spring is needed? 17lbs, same exact recoil spring assembly as the regular 17. You can certainly use a lighter recoil spring though. The slide isn't much heavier than a 17. Glock removes a lot of metal from the 17L slide; in addition to the slide cut behind the front sight they also remove a lot of metal from the inside of the slide. |

Congrats on the 17L. I bought one as well. Their great pistols. They are sorta rare. Don't come around often. Not as rare as a gen 1 G19, but, still not real common guns.
Enjoy. They hold resale very well BTW. I had to pay $590 + shipping + transfer fees for mine. |
