Frequently Asked Questions
Glock 17 Gen 2 for sale
Is there a Glock 17 gen 2?
Yes, Glock produced a Gen 2 model of the Glock 17. It's a 9mm semi-automatic pistol with a 17-round capacity and 4.49-inch barrel. Production has ended, but used and surplus examples are still available, typically priced around $445, ranging from $316 to $598.
Is the Glock 17 Gen 2 still a good option?
Gen 2 models remain reliable for defense and duty use. At around $445, they cost less than newer generations while delivering proven durability. Three variants are currently in stock. The Gen 5 offers refined ergonomics and triggers, but the Gen 2 is still a solid, capable pistol.
What is the difference between Gen 1 and Gen 2 Glock 17?
Gen 1 had a smooth, minimally textured grip and lacked accessory rails. Gen 2 added pebble-textured grip panels with checkered squares on the front and backstrap for improved handling. Both fire 9mm and hold 17 rounds, but Gen 2 introduced early ergonomic refinements to the frame.
What are the common issues with Gen 2 Glocks?
Gen 2 Glocks occasionally experience weak ejection, where spent casings barely clear the hand or fail to eject entirely, often linked to worn magazine springs or dirty conditions. Slide lock issues mid-cycle have also been reported. Most problems resolve with proper cleaning and quality ammunition.
Is the Glock 17 Gen 2 good for concealed carry?
The Glock 17 Gen 2 can be concealed but its full-size frame makes it challenging compared to compact options like the Glock 19. It's reliable and accurate, but most people find smaller pistols easier to carry daily. Body type, clothing, and holster choice significantly affect how well it conceals.
What are must-have Glock 17 upgrades?
Popular upgrades include night sights or fiber optic sights for low-light shooting, a lighter trigger connector for improved control, extended magazine release and slide stop lever for faster manipulation, and grip enhancements like tape or stippling. Prioritize sights and trigger based on your intended use.
How do I tell what generation Glock 17 I have?
Check the left side of your slide for generation markings—only Gen 4 and Gen 5 have them stamped there. If unmarked, you have Gen 3 or earlier. Compare your grip texture and frame features to reference photos: Gen 2 has a flat front strap with subtle pebble texture, while Gen 3 adds finger grooves.
