The Glock 17 Gen5 is the latest evolution of the world’s most trusted duty pistol. Built for reliability, accuracy, and high-volume use, it’s the choice for law enforcement, home defense, and serious shooters. Since we started carrying it in mid-2024, it’s become one of our fastest-moving items, with consistent demand requiring us to keep over 20 units in stock at all times to avoid backorders.
