Glock G17

Glock · Gen 6 · Introduced 2026

Glock classifies the G17 Gen6 as Standard and lists it as a 9x19 mm Safe Action pistol with a 17-round standard magazine, an integrated optic-ready system, and a flat-faced trigger. The directory normalizes its frame class as full-size.

Scope note: Moved from Gen5 to Gen6 on 2026-08-11 under the most-recent-generation rule; the Gen5, Gen5 MOS and earlier pages remain separate listings. Gen6 pistols are optic-ready as standard, so there is no separate MOS variant. Glock lists no optional magazine capacities for the Gen6, unlike the Gen5 page.

Verification boundary: Published technical data are rounded, may not reflect manufacturing tolerances, and may change without notice. MSRP is not recorded: most cited product pages do publish a price, but it changes without notice and independently of the specification, so this directory has no field for it and the row stays blank rather than carrying a figure that would silently go stale. Values marked ≈ were converted by this directory from the unit system the source published; the unmarked figure in the same row is the published one.
Evidence tiers backing this record: Manufacturer. Unmarked values come from manufacturer documentation; any value drawn from a lower tier is labeled inline with that tier. Where two sources disagreed, the higher tier was recorded and the disagreement noted.

02How many rounds does the Glock G17 Gen 6 hold?

04What are the dimensions of the Glock G17 Gen 6?

Glock publishes 202 × 34 × 139 mm / 7.95 × 1.34 × 5.47 in (height: including magazine). Any measurement basis shown is the manufacturer's own qualifier; where none is shown, the manufacturer states none.

05How much does the Glock G17 Gen 6 weigh?

Glock publishes 600 g / 21.16 oz without a magazine; 680 g / 23.99 oz with an empty magazine fitted. These are different measurement conditions and are not interchangeable.

06What size class is the Glock G17 Gen 6?

07Is the Glock G17 Gen 6 striker-fired?

Glock publishes "Safe Action" as its own name for the action and does not classify an ignition type for the G17 Gen 6. This directory records the manufacturer's wording and leaves the ignition field empty rather than inferring a classification the source does not state.

08What is the trigger pull on the Glock G17 Gen 6?

Glock lists 26 N / ≈5.85 lb. A published figure is a specification rather than a measurement of any individual firearm.

09When was the Glock G17 Gen 6 introduced?

2026, per the source cited on this record. Where a manufacturer publishes no dated announcement, this directory records no year rather than estimating one.

10Does the Glock G17 Gen 6 have a warranty?
