You guys ever see a Glock "trainer"......exactly like a the real gun, no firing pin hole
We just got something in here that is to be transferred to one of the Canada guys that we deal with. Its a Glock trainer pistol.....its exactly like the real deal in every way, but has no firing pin....not even a hole where the firing pin would be. Its bright red, almost orange and the action, weight and even the mags are like the normal Glock.
I'm used to the blue plastic guns, but I've never seen a trainer that was so much like the real deal.

I've seen one of those red/orange guns before. Never actually examined it close enough to know about the no firing pin hole, but my understanding was it was a trainer. 0 -
It sounds like a Model 17R which is a "practice sample" which can be dry fired. These are few and far between, primarily because they are classified as a firearm in the United States: while the slide and barrel are incapable of firing, the frame is identical to a Model 17 which means it can be easily converted intro a live pistol with a new slide and barrel.. 0 -
The 17R resets it's trigger without having to rack the slide each time. 0 -

Yes....that is what this is. I just thought it was an ODD bird for sure.mark christian said:It sounds like a Model 17R which is a "practice sample" which can be dry fired.

I can see where some departments and such might could make use for it in practice scenarios, but it seems like a lot of money to spend on something that is a practice or training item. I would imagine with all the Glocks I've seen over the years I would have seen one of these frames before. Its sure is a bright color and I don't imagine that people out there wouldn't want it as their firearm.0 -
I thought all Glocks were trainers? Ya know, trainin' 'till ya can get a big boy gun.........
