The P17 uses a straight blowback, single-action system with an internal hammer. Controls include an ambidextrous thumb safety and an ambidextrous paddle-style magazine release, making it intuitive for both right- and left-handed shooters. The single-action-only trigger delivers a consistent pull.
Its 3.9 in hardened steel barrel is fixed and threaded 1/2x28 with a 1:14 twist, ready for common .22 LR muzzle devices. The slide features a polymer cover over a steel slide core for durability with minimal weight.
Sight alignment is quick and clear thanks to a fiber-optic green front sight paired with a fully adjustable rear notch. Frame ergonomics are enhanced by gator grip texturing, and a five-slot Picatinny accessory rail offers straightforward light or accessory mounting.
The glass-reinforced nylon frame keeps overall weight low while an internal steel frame/trunnion adds strength. Dimensions are compact—6.7 in overall length, 5.3 in height, and 1.25 in width—with a black finish throughout. Patent marking is US 10,184,780 B1.
