Let's Talk Glocks

The man is right, the 17L is really accurate compare to the regular 17, i noticed that of the bat, velocity increase and sight radius is a big +... JP.
 
Why is it that we see so many OD/FDE colored Glocks available in the U.S but none ever for sale by retailers in Canada?

I've been comparing the Glock 17L and Glock 34, I know the 17L has more sight radius, but I often wonder about overall feel and accuracy (practically speaking).

OD was available up here at one time but as of now, who knows that may change. The FDE models were a special made only for one distributor in the US.

I'd buy a OD/FDE Glock 21 if you could get one... I'm contemplating importing one but would rather give my business to Wolverine.

They are crazy to not have them as an in-line available color option.... Their minimums can't be that high that they can't offer them. Just a bunch of polymer grips - FDE, OD, and gray.

As a 17L owner and shooter I can tell you they are an accurate pistol, feel great and I love it. How much more accurate than a 34 at all if it is I can't say. The 17L is great on plates.
 
I've got an older Gen 2 17L and I have to say I'm not that impressed with it's accuracy compared to my 34. I even tried mounting a Burris Fastfire II on it and the groups stayed ~4" at 10 yards. I can do 3" groups at that distance with my 34 and iron sights. I got this 17L off of the EE, so it could be that it's worn out. I do notice that I can wiggle the muzzle end of the barrel much easier on the 17L than on the 34 so maybe the barrel lockup is worn out. Anyone know if this can be fixed or if replacing the barrel would help?
 
How do I join equipment exchange so that I might view items for purchase.

I know this might not be the correct venue to ask....sorry but I need a little help here.

Is yours one of the early ones with the compensator slots in the barrel? It is a glock barrel correct? I know on my Gen 3 17L there isn't any wiggles on the muzzle end.
