About This Firearm
The Glock G17 V is a full-size striker-fired 9mm built for duty and competition. The V pistols have no optic system, so this is an iron-sight gun while the Gen6 models carry the dot mounts.
The Glock Marksman Barrel is 4.49 inches, the magazine holds 17 rounds, and an nDLC-finished slide with front serrations sits over it at 23.63 oz with an empty magazine. The frame has a flared magazine well with a cutout at the front to guide a magazine in under pressure, no finger grooves, and interchangeable backstraps. The magazine catch reverses at owner level and the slide stop lever works from both sides. The trigger breaks at 5.8 lbs with no manual safety.
If you're cross-shopping, the Glock G17 Gen6 is the same length and barrel at 23.99 oz, and it brings the reshaped grip and three optic plates with it. The Glock G17 Gen5 weighs 24.97 oz on the same footprint with the same trigger, so the V saves weight over it while adding the magazine well and the newer barrel.

Strengths & Limitations
- The Marksman Barrel is Glock's current barrel, with the polygonal rifling and reworked crown the company lists for increased accuracy.
- The frame is polymer over hardened steel guides, so the rails the slide runs on are metal.
- The flared well and the frame cutout make a fumbled reload recoverable with one hand, which no standard Glock frame offers.
- A red dot means having the slide cut or buying a Gen6 instead.
- The flared magazine well adds bulk at the bottom of the grip, and that bulk prints under a shirt.
- One magazine comes in the box, where the Gen5 sets carry three, so spares are an immediate purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a manual-safety version?
No. The V pistols rely on the three passive internal safeties of the Safe Action system, which release in sequence as the trigger is pulled.
Can it take bigger magazines?
Yes. Glock lists four larger optional sizes alongside the standard flush magazine, which is how a competition shooter gets a longer first string.
What comes in the box?
The pistol, one flush magazine, the interchangeable backstraps and a lockable case.
Where is it made?
Austria.
