I want a loooooong slide Glock in 9mm, the question is which one should I buy, and why?
It's purpose would be purely recreational shooting, and maybe some quiet shooting with an Osprey suppressor.
I don't need one, but I don't see what that has to do with anything anyway. ;D
Aaaaaaaannnndddd.... GO!
-
If you ever want to try USPSA, the 17L is not legal because the barrel is too long.
-
Does anyone make a threaded barrel long enough to fit the L slide?
From what I am seeing the 34 is more readily available new and used than the 17L.
-
Glock has just released a run of 17Ls .....Gen 3.
-
Lone wolf makes a 6.6" threaded barrel for the 17.
-
G34 in my opinion has the best overall balance and good feel.
I shot 3 divisions at a GSSF match 2 weeks ago with these three guns: G17, G34 and G17L. G17 felt the best to me, G34 felt pretty good.... G17L felt heavy and bulky.

Only illegal in production, it's g2g in open and limited minor.
-
I have the 34 and love it, but I bought it primarily to shoot USPSA production. If I were just buying a range toy, I'd lean toward the 17L for the cool factor. The 40 cal version, the G24 is on my short list.
-
I want one of the two as well but I've only seen the 34 in stores never seen the 17L well at least not when I went specifically looking for these.
-
Thunder Alley has 3-4 17Ls

Threads like this scream for photos, for people that think visual. (like me)
