If u know how to search its far less a waste than posting here AND you acquire additional knowledge from various sources. If u know how to post here then you already should know how online research works. Dont be lazy and look for answers yourself first unless you want everything to be done for you. If thats the case, become a politician or Liberal.People that take the time to reply with search google as the answer should be banned for 1 day. Unproductive waste.

gunguy23 tells you all you need to know... Only thing missing is the Glock 18, which is a full auto version like a G17, but verboten here because it is too much fun...
I am so confused about what all of the number systems are on the Glocks ??? What is the best and why?? Now throw in the generation whatever and I am even more messed up...is there a rule of thumb so I know what I am looking at? No disrespect to Glock lovers!

The first GLOCK pistol, the G17, was named as it normally holds 17 rounds, and after that they just followed the number sequence. The latest is the G43.
Sorry, no. It was the 17nth development model. The first to be submitted for military evaluation. 17 rounds was a coincidence.

Actually no one knows for sure.
There were a few "17's"....
....17 rounds
....17 criteria for the new generation service pistol (Austria)
But what I found after my post above was that it was named so as it was the 17th development model (as mentioned by .325WSM).
Ah well, doesn't really matter anyways. I don't own a 17, but do have a g22, which I think is modified onomatopoeia for "good for pew pew"![]()
