Breaking: Photo Of The New FBIGlock 17M Leaked

Posted 2 hours ago in Daily News, News, Pistols by Patrick R with 40 Comments

It appears that someone finally got their new Glock 17M duty gun in from Glock! I am inclined to believe that it is a genuine photo because our source is an officer with the Indianapolis Metro Police Department, one of the first agencies to receive the new guns. The officer that this 17M belongs to is one of the first to get the new Glock, there is no new information at this time and it appears that many of the rumors have been confirmed. Glock has not released any information as of yet; we will update as we learn more.

Glock mothership in Austria wasn’t too keen on adding a flared magwell for whatever reason. I would love to hear the rationale behind that one. The most interesting thing about the 17M below is that it appears to be a Gen 4. This seems to give the rumor that we will see a Gen 5 around SHOT 2017 more weight. The list below was leaked by an officer attending the Glock 17M/19M training, it appears that he hit the nail on the head.

• A new tougher finish
• Changes in the rifling
• Longer recoil spring assembly
• Reinforced forward notch for the recoil springassembly
• A smoother trigger similar to the G42/43
• Flared magwell
• No finger grooved
• Changes in the safety plunger
• Ambidextrous slide release
• Magazines have an extended front lip
• Magazine well cutout

Keep a look out for more information on the 17M and 19Mpistols. I imagine that there will be some better photos surfacing as well as a good statement from Glock regarding what changes they made.

Finally no finger grooves! My prayers have been answered.

I like the finger grooves. But as long as there is decent texturing in its place, I won't care. Built in flared magwell will be nice, just hopefully it's not too much on the G19.

I'm with you on that. But I really would love one in 10mm

I like the finger grooves as well. But it only takes about 10 min with a dremmel if you dont like them. Im not real sure how much I like this new one if it really is real. Im surprised its back to the old 2 pin design.
