Details out on Glock 17M

[orionz06]

1. From day one, the dudes who have actually seen the gun say "It looks like a Gen 4 17 with no finger grooves and an ambi slide stop."
   
2. Pictures finally get posted of...a Gen 4 17 with no finger grooves and an ambi slide stop.
   
3. People react with surprise and dismay.
   
4. I don't understand the internet sometimes.

I don't get it either. I'm excited that I can have the frame without the silly grooves though.

Don't believe anyone said "kilt in the streets" actually the opposite. Apparently BTF is a new feature that gets you ready to dodge bullets and hardens you so you are the ninja cool operator like you always knew you were, JHC told me so . It is so good that George has decided to abandon all other pistols in favor of a G-lock.

Well the NYPD had the Phase II malfunctions with the gen 2, then there was the BTF with the late Gen 3s and early Gen 4s, and GJM bought all of the good Gen 3s (that hadn't been stippled and grip chopped yet) and threw them in LL's mancave to make space for his .45 super reloading setup. It's hard out there for a Glock man.

There are photos of a G17M out and the details of the improvements are listed. There is a lot to like about the new "M". It is much better than the Gen 4.

I like those "silly grooves".

Really? Unless the ejection issue is cleaned up once and for all, I don't see a big deal here.

No finger groves? I guess this is a personal thing, I don't really care.
More accurate? I'll believe it when I see it, but even if it's true Gen 4 Glocks are more than adequate in this department
Ambi-slide release? Stop being left handed

Wait, what am I saying? I want to pick up Gen 4s on the cheap whenever the Gen 5 is released. Yeah, these look much better than those crappy Gen 4s.

Apparently not. Minds are being blown

I spontaneously began humming, "Fat Bottommed Girls."

Nice.

I'd like to see a G34M or G17LM, myself.

...moving on.

That right there is worth at least a little bit of squee.
