Trying to date a G17

[Brian5582]

I am either semi rerarded or loosing my mind or something. I have a older G17 and am trying to figure out date of manufacture but can’t find any numbers with the prefix XD. Any help is greatly appreciated. Serial # is XD7xxUS.

When I saw the title, I thought you wanted to date a girl 17 years old.

Anyway, your G17 was made in Oct. 1991 (Gen 2).

You can go to glock talk also

Yup, to be safe in MA, you should wait until G19.

Thanks guys I couldn’t find XD anywhere. I read over that page too. When I searched XD prefix I got results of those stupid ass Springfield XD’s . This is the only gun forum I am a member of so that’s why I asked here.

call glock customer service and they will give you the date of manufacture right over the phone. Takes about 5 minutes. That is a guarantee of correct date and easiest method.

Yup! A G19 is also easier to find than a G18 is for some unknown reason.

If this is to prove “pre ban” status in Mass:

ALL gen 2 (no finger grooves) are pre October 1998. 100% ok for any FFL to transfer in Massachusetts.

Dont wait too long though. Before you know it she'll be a G43. To be fair to OP, a G17 is better than a B17.

As usual with Glock firearms and magazines, nothing is really cast in stone. The Glock Serial Number Research Project lists a Glock 17 Gen. 2 made in January 1999 with a S/N starting with CZB. Is it a mistake in the list? Does it have finger grooves? Who knows?

Well, that sure is interesting!

I know the cut off on serial numbers is around CTx###. If it was anywhere near that I would check the serial number project and maybe even call Glock.

There are virtually no hold times on the phone.
Ask for tech support.
In 5 minutes you’ll have your answer. Just keep in mind that they close at 4pm or maybe 4:30pm if I recall.

Yeah, I was genuinely hoping to read a thread about a man in love with his Glock 17. So disappointed.

 

[bfm]

maybe buy it a drink first?

In what universe is a G17 better then a B17?????

To the OP. Just bring it flowers and never cry in front of it and you should have a long loving relationship.

I disagree B17 is amazing

Don't lie, you love to rock out with your Glock out.

I want a flag that runs from black to pink with shades of grey, OD Green, and FDE in the middle. This should be a momevment!

Lol, I was trying to play along with the insinuations at the beginning of the thread that G17= 17 year old girl, so B17=17 year old boy. So, the OP is better off with a teenage girl than a teenage boy. Not so funny if you have to explain it out I guess.

Sorry for failing on the thread guys, apparently I don’t have as much time on my hands as some of you. Lol

Selling for my grandfather, I don’t buy plastic guns
