Ah, the <\/strong>Glock 17 gen 5 en<\/strong> ! A little gem that I had the pleasure of handling recently in my armoury. Let me tell you about it, my friends. This 9\u00d719 mm semi-automatic pistol is the civilian version of the model adopted by the French army at the end of 2019. A choice that came as no surprise to me, I have to say, given the reliability and performance of this machine.<\/p>\n The first thing that strikes you is the coyote\/sand-coloured polymer casing. A look that won't go unnoticed! The fingerprint-free grip adapts to a wide range of body shapes. I remember testing this pistol with a customer who had particularly large hands, and he was delighted to see how comfortable the grip was.<\/p>\n The flared magazine well makes reloading much easier, a detail that can make all the difference in a stressful situation. The serrations on the front of the breech provide a better grip for reloading or checking the chamber.<\/p>\n Le <\/strong>Glock 17 gen 5 en<\/strong> is equipped with a new 4.5\u2033 (114mm) GMB (Glock Marksman Barrel) match barrel. This improvement provides greater accuracy than previous generations. The luminescent steel sights also contribute to better target acquisition.<\/p>\n The nDLC surface treatment applied to the breech and barrel considerably increases corrosion resistance. This is crucial to the gun's longevity, especially if you're the kind of person who sweats his hands like my nephew did during his first shooting sessions!<\/p>\n Here is a summary of the main features of the Glock 17 gen 5 fr :<\/p>\n When you buy a Glock 17 gen 5 fr, you don't leave empty-handed!
