The Glock 17T is a specialized training pistol designed to fire 9mm FX Simunition cartridges, which use hollow plastic slugs filled with colored paint to mark targets during live-fire exercises. These pistols are officially blue to distinguish them from operational firearms and feature a rifled barrel with an offset bore to safely handle the unique training ammunition.

Key operational details include:
Ammunition Compatibility: The 9mm FX rounds contain a reduced powder charge and a plastic piston that ejects the paint slug, providing realistic recoil to cycle the action.
Safety Mechanisms: The locking block, striker, and barrel are modified to prevent the pistol from firing standard live ammunition.
Availability: Originally sold exclusively to law enforcement, these units occasionally appear on the secondary market as police department trade-ins.
Performance: Simunition impacts are described as painful (stinging) at close range, requiring operators to wear protective headgear, neck gear, and vests.

Shopping at Guns.com gives you the backing of a company that is committed to your satisfaction. And unlike our competitors, it extends beyond the buying process. We get the FFL from your store – others make you find it, copy it, and fax it. We have a generous return policy, and handle everything – you don’t have to go back to the store. And our Rangemasters are here to answer all your questions about our products or process. We're bringing a level of service to the online gun buying experience that is unheard of.
Many online gun sales actually take away from your local community. Instead of buying a gun that’s on your local store’s shelf, most retailers drop ship it from a warehouse in another state. At Guns.com, if an FFL is part of our network, we sell THEIR guns first whenever possible. That way, we’re helping small businesses in your community AND if they have it in stock, you can pick your gun up IMMEDIATELY – it’s how business should be done.
Most everything can be easily bought online these days. But for some reason, buying a gun online can be complicated. Most websites are poorly organized, don’t tell you a lot about what you’re buying, and leave you on your own to figure out what you want. Guns.com is built to be simple – easily organized products, useful descriptions from experts, and support to guide you to the right choice. Spend your time enjoying the gun you want, not getting frustrated with a complex website that makes gun buying hard.
