Glock G17 Gen 3 9mm, Full-Size, Threaded Barrel, 17+1 Capacity, Fixed Sights, Made in Austria
This Glock G17 Gen 3 stands out with its factory-style threaded 9mm barrel, full-size frame, and proven Gen3 features. It carries Austrian markings, a nitrided steel slide and cold hammer forged barrel, and comes with one factory 17-round magazine. The setup is straightforward, durable, and ready to run with a threaded muzzle protected by a knurled cap.
The Gen3 frame features three finger grooves with pebble texture panels and Glock's single-slot Universal accessory rail. Sights are fixed with an easy-to-acquire sight picture, and the slide has rear serrations for confident manipulation. Capacity is 17+1, and the action is striker-fired with multiple passive safeties.
The 5-inch steel barrel is cold hammer forged with polygonal rifling and finished with a corrosion-resistant nitrided treatment. Its threaded muzzle includes a knurled thread protector, offering added utility while maintaining a clean profile. Controls are left-side, consistent with Gen3 configuration.
Markings include "MADE IN AUSTRIA GLOCK, INC., SMYRNA, GA," aligning with its Austrian origin. Note: The frame serial plate reads G57136, while the slide bears a different S‑prefix serial on the right side near the ejection port, consistent with a Glock service/replacement slide; the slide and frame serial numbers do not match.

What's Included

- 9mm threaded barrel (installed)
- Knurled thread protector (installed)
The Gen3 G17 uses a polymer frame paired with a steel slide, both treated for durability and corrosion resistance. The sight picture is the familiar Glock setup that is easy to acquire, and the rear slide serrations aid in administrative handling. The Glock Universal single-slot rail supports compatible lights or accessories as desired.
Internally, the striker-fired, short-recoil operated system is complemented by Glock's trio of passive safeties: trigger safety, firing pin safety, and drop safety. The magazine release is on the left side. Capacity is 17+1 with the included factory magazine.
The threaded barrel is a key feature of this example. Its cold hammer forged construction and polygonal rifling are designed for longevity, and the nitrided treatment adds corrosion resistance. The knurled protector keeps the threads covered when not in use.
