Makes sense. They don't make Gen 2's anymore. Only reason the Gen 3 is still in production is because of California's approved roster nonsense, or it would've been discontinued long ago.

I'm with David Lee. I want a 17L. That's gotta happen at some point. I want a first gen, but I don't want to pay first gen prices. A Gen 2 would be pretty sweet.

Added a 17 gen 5 MOS to the collection today, very nice

Here's a photo I resurrected from my archives. The pistol is long gone. I'm now shooting a G17 Gen 5.

Thank you hjs, I knew someone had these. Hope we see others.

I'd love to have a gen5 17L

Glock worked for Tony Soprano.

Love the 17L hjs.

My main carry gun is a Glock 17 Gen 5. It’s used for carry, nightstand and comp. I also have a 43X for the soon to be summertime.

They’re the easiest guns to use and a cave,an can work on them without issue.

Ordered a P365XL. Told my wife I plan on selling something to finance it. So, G43, G48 or G19 Gen5. All with a few custom features. I'm thinking the G48 but I guess I'll know more after I get my hands on the P365XL at the range. Could be the G19. I like all of these pistols, but sadly, one needs to go.

I bought a G20 last week. It’s a joy to shoot, with less recoil than you might imagine.

Indeed, even with full house SD loads.

I'm a little late, but here are a few pix of my 17L:






My "20L"

Very nice pair of long slides Rawny. Is your 10mm gun a G40 slide on a G20 frame? I am a little confused how the KKM is marked. Also, I like those extended controls and its rear sight looks something similar to Bomar? Happy Easter and thank you for posting these.

Love my G20. Have it loaded with the 200 grain HST and not a hiccup. When I woods carry I use the Buffalo Bore 190 grain dangerous game. Have not had a problem with that load either.

Good eyes. Those are Bo-Mars, with Dawson's up front. I had to dig it out to check. This was a group project using a .45 long slide made by a German company which name escaped me. We convinced KKM to make us a batch of 10mm conversion barrels to fit the slide. I think we had to order at least twenty barrels. It rides on my G21 frame. The G40 wasn't around 15 years ago, so we made our own.

Here are a couple of new ones:

Thank you. First time I have ever seen a Bomar mounted on a Glock. Its a nice pistol. Being a 10mm, what is your use for it? It would be a great hunting pistol.

Been trying to find a slide for Glock29SF to have an optic mounted on it while keeping the original "virgin." Any suggestions as to where I could find a backup slide?

Still do not own a Glock.

I once owned a Glock for 24 hours. They don't like me. I've decided not to offend them with my presence. It's been a good relationship.

I try them out from time to time but there's never any improvement. Nothing against Glock in general. Just not a fit for me.

It's just a range toy for now, as I don't hunt. I might try it one day, if opportunity comes.

I just picked up a gently used (honestly it looks unfired to me, still has the copper factory grease) G23.4 for a steal locally. Swapped in a set of the Ameriglo trooper sights, ordered a .357Sig barrel & 5 new mags. Excited about this one, haven't had a .40 in several years now, but took in a couple of cases of ammo in trade.
