The Glock 17 Gen 4 MOS is designed to be fitted with an optic, such as a Trijicon RMR or Leupold Delta Point Pro. The overall length is a little less than the standard gen 4 but has a longer line of sight for enhanced accuracy. The MOS model also has a shorter trigger distance (2.76″), which gives the MOS a shorter crisper trigger pull than the standard model. For the most part, in my opinion, the only reason I’d buy the MOS model is if I wanted to mount a red dot sight.
The price is negligible and you get the ability to easily mount almost any red dot sight you can think of without the hassle of using extra tools or paying a gunsmith to do it for you.
The Modular Optics System
The MOS or Modular optics System was a big step forward for handguns. Prior to this, you had to pay a good chunk of change to get a gun cut for a specific optic. The Glock MOS System allowed you to mount 4 different plates that could accommodate a wide variety of different optic’s footprints. From the more affordable Burris Fastfire to the Legendary Trijicon RMR.
On the Range with the Glock 17
The Glock 17 runs like a champ. The included sights suck though, and in fact were very off center when I purchased the gun. They were nearly hanging off the right side of the Glock. The Glock 17 is an optics ready gun and I plan to review it as an optic’s ready gun.
The Glock series is legendary for their reliability. This model is no different. It eats everything I’ve tossed at it and through it. From the cheap steel Eastern European junk ammo to high-end Defensive 124 JHP +P rounds. It eats it all, round after round after round. It’s never choked and I doubt it ever will. From the gun store to now I’ve never cleaned or lubed the gun. I just punish it.
