Lipsey's puts the past in the palm of your hand with our newest exclusive, the GLOCK G17 GEN 1 Classic!
Lipsey’s new tribute project to GLOCK’s first semi-automatic, safe action pistol has all the looks and feel of the original. Introduced in 1986 to the U.S. consumer market, the G17 became GLOCK’s first civilian alternative to the GLOCK Pistole 80 (P80) which was the Austrian military’s official sidearm in 1982. The interesting name and unique polymer frame drew a lot of attention in America with later generations becoming the preferred defensive pistol for millions of consumers and law enforcement alike.
The Lipsey’s Exclusive GLOCK G17 Gen 1 Classic stays true to styling with the pebble grip texture, Gen 1 pin style frame, flat extractor, no front serrations, and smooth trigger. Collector’s will appreciate that this model is made in Austria and comes with an original “Tupperware” style container encased within a beautiful graphic overbox and certificate of authenticity. Every GLOCK G17 Gen 1 Classic will also have the GEN1 suffix in the serial number.

Yes but the p80 hasn't been available for 40 years. It's a rare retro Glock. It's got the old school cool factor. Much like when companies were making retro 1911s to original military spec.

@@G19Jeeper I actually just realized this is a new run of these guns. I got one of the first run of p80s. Mine was like #692, however the first runs didn't have the gen1 suffix at the end of the number. I had to pull mine out of the safe because I saw the special serial number and could have swore mine didn't look like that. And it doesn't. And I just now realized that this was labeled glock 17 instead of p80. Typical of Glock to announce a special run and then make 40 trillion of them later. So much for getting something I thought was special. 😂. I haven't had a lot of expendable income lately so you Ive fallen behind on current gun models. So did you get a p80 and one of these gen 1 retros? Wondering if they'll do a gen 2 retro.

And just like their P80 pistol, they're using the early Gen 3 tupperware boxes - not the bullet holder style used in early Gen 1. Drop free mags, captured RSA, no doubt a melonite heat treatment, etc.

@burmiester1 Жыл бұрын

It's pretty unreasonable to expect them to make a completely original Gen 1 again (they'd have to create an entirely new pencil barrel JUST for this gun), not to mention impossible since the molds they are using are replicas.

@SuperTango44 I have a Glock Pistole 80. I managed to get mine the day they were released, and for less than MSRP. The TFBTV video released on 9/1/2020 with Jason Cloessner of Lipsey's said Lipsey's was going to limit the production of the Pistole 80 to 10,000 units. The first 5,000 available Sept 1st, with the remainder to be released at a later date. I have not been able to find information on if Lipsey's ever produced the 2nd batch of 5,000. This "new" G17 Gen1 makes me wonder if the 2nd batch of Pistole 80s were never produced and these G17 Gen1's are the remainder of the original Pistole 80s that were to be produced. If so, I imagine the Pistole 80 will be worth more as time goes on.
