Section 9Owner reports
“It's a good little pocket gun. Has a really long trigger pull but with no safety thats a good thing. Folks with larger hands might want to put it in a pocket holster. Over all the size is good for pocket carry and its hard to beat the price.”
“This was my first Walther PPS M2 LE. The pistol performed as I had hoped and expected. All three magazines fit nicely and ejected easily. I look forward to experimenting with different brands of ammo. I am completely satisfied with my purchase.”
“Feels nice and solid, I haven't gotten a chance to shoot it yet but I sure will be tomorrow to see how it feels to shoot it. I done had the g2s and g2c now I got the g3c”
“Another awesome revolver. The stainless finish on the Taurus is amazing. Shoots like a dream. Awesome edc. Pistol. 5 out of 5”
“The fit and finish on this gun is really nice for the money. Shoots great and its beautiful to look at.”
“I was hesitant to buy this Taurus at first but after I put a little over 400 rounds of different brands of ammunition through it I was impressed. Even my carry ammo feed well. I'm former government employee and when I carry cancelled I don't want any print of a weapon on me what so ever and the Taurus GX4 micro compact 9 does just that.”

NotesOne platform, five generations, three slide lengths
The Glock 17 has been made since 1982 and most of its parts have changed at least once since. We stock the platform by assembly and by generation: slides and barrels for the 17, the long-slide 17L and the 34, trigger bars and housings for Gen 1 to 4 and for Gen 5, single and dual recoil assemblies, sights that fit every generation, and the 17-round magazine in its factory, restricted and extended forms. Every listing says which generation it fits.
We are an independent store, not affiliated with Glock, Inc. Parts and magazines ship to your door where your state allows; complete pistols ship to a licensed dealer in your state. Our city pages list magazine limits, purchase rules and the nearest public ranges for 20 cities in 17 states.
