Awesome hand gun never had a jam tried to make it jam by shooting 4 18 round clips as fast as possible would not jam and also very balanced with accuracy. I have owned my Gen4 Glock 17 for a couple of years and feel that it is one of the best 9mm pistols on the market today. I have installed the"Ultimate Pyramid Trigger Assembly"and fiber optics sights.
These options just enhances the abilities of this pistol. In addition, the large back strap and beaver tail gives a good feel and comfort. Because of the design angle and size, acquiring a good grip from the draw is comfortable and smooth. Needless to say, this is critical for speed in acquiring sight alignment for a quick shot on target.
As a duty firearm, it is lightweight as not to fatigue you by having to carry a heavy pistol all day. On the range or during tacticals the accuracy is excellent. Shooting with either my right or left hand is not an issue as it is well balanced. Whether taking precision shots or rapid fire I have yet to have had a malfunction.
Bottom line is that I highly recommend this pistol for home defense, duty, or even competition shooting. There was this one time in where I got into a situation with my buddies that we didn't have any oil or cleaning kit and none was coming any time soon.
It was the British military and we were elated that we didn't have to clean our pistols and also, flapping like a two-stroke engine that the gun would not fire after a few rounds. Turns out I got into a close and personal situation and this thing just kept going and going and going through a whole contact.
To this day I still have dreams about this pistol I was issued and how it saved my life. If I could own a gun in the UK I would powerslide into the store and get this! Can't knock it just keeps the carbon out of the parts and your set. The sights used to drive me insane mind, But when your in pistol pushing power guess what. It works. Thanks for my life Glock :.

Are they supernaturally reliable to the point where they never fail?
They fail about as often as any other quality combat pistol. A lot of that is because of its versatility and popularity.

It is important to find reliable ammo that you will be able to find easily and can be found in an ideal grain weight for the gun you plan on using it in.
Always search for brass cases and avoid steel if possible. CCI Brass Blazer is a fantastic round that can be found in multiple grain weights and functions very well in many firearms. It can run a little dirtier than some other brands on the market but since Glocks are so easy to field strip this is pretty much a no factor. Another great choice is PMC Bronze. They can be found commonly in the grain weight and come packaged in very small boxes while still having the typical 50 rounds of a standard range box.
Since the packaging is compact you will be able to store extra ammo in your range bag and ammo cans than with other brands. Federal HST is my go-to for defensive pistol needs. Yes, they can be more expensive than other offerings on the market but when it comes to a defensive situation do you really feel like you should be cheap out on self-protection?

A quality holster that suits whatever needs you to plan of filling with your Glock is a great option. Feel free to purchase multiple, one for each of the situations you plan on using it with.
Be sure to train with your carry holster at the range if they allow it so you can become proficient with your draw before you need to put it to real-world use.

The only thing I could really think about modifying on the gun would be the trigger if you are looking for something that will be more competitive. That being said make sure you purchase a quality aftermarket trigger as the factory one might outperform some of the cheaper options on the market.
