Your pick for threaded G17 barrels

dry-flyYour pick for threaded G17 barrels
So I need a threaded barrel for my gen 5 Glock 17. I was kinda looking at Agency but came across a crazy sale that Faxon is having. Only thing holding me back is that I have no experience with Faxon. What say y’all?

WaterburyBobI've always liked KKM barrels.
Currently have a KKM threaded barrel in my G20.

parabellumI wonder if Glock will offer threaded gen5 G17 and G19 barrels. I have one of each for gen3 and the OEM version would be my choice.

I’d like to have a factory 17 threaded barrel, but the left handed threads mean I’d need new pistons for cans also. Plus there is that Gen 5 thing.

monoblokGlock does have a RH threaded barrel for the Gen5 G17, but it seems as if it perpetually out of stock anywhere you might look.
https://store.glock.us/g17-gen5-threaded-barrel Earlier this year, to get one before the new laws here in WA banning the sale of pistol TBs went into effect, I wound up buying a complete Gen5 17 that had been fitted with the TB by Glock themselves. Extreme measures require extreme responses...I guess.

dry-flyWell I grabbed the Faxon barrel. It was nearly $75 off, I hear they are one of the few companies that actually manufacture their own barrels. We’ll see.

There is a 1/2x28 19 Gen 5 threaded barrel. The part number is SP47698 and the UPC is 764503030512. They're tough to find.

That is correct they are located in Cincinnati.
I would put them as lower middle tier. For a combat pistol they will do just fine.
I do believe member David Lee worked there for a bit.

Creeping_DeathNot OEM, but I have been very happy with Combat Armory’s barrels on my 17 Gen 3 and 19 Gen 4:
