    Glock 17 gen 5

    Hey folks was hoping to speak to someone who has a Glock 17 gen5 MOS.

    Well the model that has the forward slide serrations and has the cut out for a optic plus the rear sight.

    If anyone has one I'd like to discuss what you're thoughts are having owned a gen5 etc?

    Cheers

    I'm just curious to see what their like to be honest. Out of the box etc.
    And what mods you've done to it for production class. I am going to get hate for using a glock but I cant get my head around the hammer guns for production with 2 pull weights.

    I feel like a Tupperware gun is next on my list.

    That model fits my wants perfectly.

    Just get a Shadow and dump the DA past the first target.
    Uplandstalker, Jexla and mimms2 like this.

    Nope.

    Reason being.

    Parts are cheap for a glock.

    Parts are easy to get.

    Can put it in a chassis.

    And obviously striker fired.

    Plus their the Toyota hilux's of the gun world. By hilux I mean 2014 or earlier.

    We carry a full selection of parts on stock. Enough to rebuild a pistol from the ground up.

    Parts are cheap - I hope I dont sell many.

    You can put it in a chassis... just not yet

    Arex Deltas are striker fired.

    Arex smoked SIG in MAC torture test on youtube...

    You have a choice of 3 sizes and a variety of colors.

    They come with 4x optics plates

    They cost less to buy than a Glock
