First Glock 9mm

Glock 17, Gen 4. Don't listen to anyone about accuracy, it's equally accurate to the Gen 3. (And let's be honest, as a new shooter, the pistol is Way more accurate then you are shooting it)

When considering Gen 3 vs Gen 4, look at the mods people. Gen 3s often have Hogue Grips or grip tape, and enlarged magazine releases. The Gen 4 comes with an enlarged release, an extra mag from the factory, and additional back straps as well as improved texture. If you want to do the mods, go for a Gen 3, if you want all the mods and a host of other improvements Stock, get a Gen 4. Don't know if you'll need the enlarged mag release? Walk into your local gun shop, ask to see a Glock 17, one a Gen 3 and one a Gen 4, and see which mag release works better for you.

Also, while a 9-5 job keeps from being aware of the most current language of the streets, I believe "Thug Lyfe" is appropriate.
 
Yes go with Glock 17, but generation 3 is a perfection of the past, all the cool kids are rocking gen4's. They fit my hand great, where gen3 feels awful.
 
I never found the Gen 3's that great, but from the first shot with a Gen 4 and the biggest back strap on it felt right at home. I am way more accurate with my Gen 4 than I ever was with a 3 as accuracy of a pistol comes down to comfort, fit, and ammo.

Well Said, the extra mag alone makes it price effective unless your buying used

The mag realease on Gen 4's are fine for me and I have big hands

P.S thugs like to yell "Check yourself fool!" too
 
I have a Gen 2 17 and a Gen 4. Both are great... Can't go wrong!

For the earlier poster, yes, the g34 is longer and has a 3.5 pound trigger option. Intended for competition..
