I have recently purchased another G17, I have owned two but for some reason I was not happy with them......Well that is until last Saturday, I was blown away with the way my new G17 performed. I can't believe I wanted any other full sized 9mm. I created ONE RAGGED HOLE in the 10 ring. I started shooting the numbers on the targets just to cement in my mind how accurate this thing was out of the tupperware. I am sure thinking about buying another G17, to go with this one. I really wish I would have taken a picture of my target. I was shooting at about 5 and 7 yards. My foundation gun WAS the BERETTA 92 but now it is the G17.

Hmmm......My Kimber Classic Stainless Target LE has been 100% reliable in the first 1000 rounds so far.  Can I be the first to get the BS flag???????????

FWIW, I am pleased with the accuracy of my G17C as well.  I used to shoot in a civilian PPC league and I tried the Glock at one of the matches instead of my usual S&W Model 14-5.  I had already fitted Heinie sights on the Glock and as a double-action revolver guy, the Glock's trigger pull was not difficult for me to get used to.  Below are three pics; two of the Heinie sights and the third of my 25/15/7 yard B27 target from that match. Ammo used was CCI Blazer 124 grain TMJ.

I shoot an old Gen II G17.  No problems with one-hole groups @ 5-7 yds, though I rarely shoot as close as that.

Yeah, but don't you see the powder burns around those holes??

I have a dozen Glocks, 10 of them are 9mms, and a G19 is has been my primary CCW for more than a dozen years now.

You won't get any argument from me, it's an excellent 9mm platform IMHO... my personal favorite, for that matter.

The only thing better than a 17, is a 19.

Can someone tell me how to post pics directly on here so I can show off my G17.

you have to host them on a different site (if you're a nonpaying member). I like Photobucket. If you use that site, it has a link with the image code already in place, so just paste the IMG link into your post.

I've been thinking about getting a G17, but i gotta pay off the two Beretta 92s i got.

My 3rd Gen G17 is probably the most accurate "right out of the box" pistol I have ever owned.  I prefer my G27 though for concealed carry, smaller and more punch.
Just my $.02

Love my G17C...its more accurate than I am...can hold a hole in the 10 ring no problem at 7 yards...
