WestCost Security service, Glock perfection
As with any experience at Academy, my purchase was simple and the staff most helpful. The pistol itself is GLOCK, which speaks volumes to anyone who’s had the pleasure to shoot or own one. Again, terrific experience, quality merchandise at an unbeatable price- the biggest reasons to continue buying from WestCostSecurity!
Yes, I recommend this product.

GLOCK 17 G5 is better than Canik TP9SFX
As well known, it is one of the best 9mm handguns. I have both of Canik TP9SFX and Glock 17. Canik is good but Glock is even better.

Alternative to Glock 17 .. shoots Great! A+
Great handgun, comes with 3 magazines!! Very similar to the Glock 17
Mike (verified owner) –
I tried these in my Glock 19 and it ate them like candy!! I will buy these from now on. No FTF and no FTE, no problems at all. If you follow Glocks lube instructions the weapon was a breeze to clean. I do not reload and do not intend to so now I don’t feel guilty about leaving brass in the field. Perfect for my useage.

Its a Glock, if you know, you know, if you don’t..
I have a gen 3 19, a gen 4 and 5 17, the gen 5 17 is my favorite. I own Sigs, CZ’s, Barettas, H&K’s, Springfield’s and others. If I had to pick one pistol to defend my family it would be my Glock 17. It Just works… It loves to eat any and all types of ammunition. The only problem I have ever had was due to OVER lubrication. Glocks have 6 lube points, one drop of good lube at each point is all you need.

What can i say. Glock just doesn’t make bad firearms. Tyler at the gun counter was great helping with the background check and making sure everything went smoothly.

Glocked Up
Third time I fired it I had a ammo jam. Has done it twice since. I’ve been looking at guns for months and finally decided on this one. So disappointing Glock is supposed to be so reliable and well machined. I’m just disgusted.

I was a bit skeptical going to a Gen5 from a Gen4 G19 but I love how the grip is more to hold onto and the trigger is a little soft but it’s fantastic for follow up shots!
