Austrian-made Glock 17 chambered in 9×19mm, showing pronounced service wear and handling patina. Widely adopted by police and military forces across Europe and beyond, the Glock 17 became one of the defining modern service pistols and later a common presence in organized crime and conflict zones.
Its extensive institutional use has also meant that examples have entered illicit circulation through theft, loss, corruption, stockpile diversion, or battlefield capture.
This example shows pronounced finish wear and handling patina across the slide and frame, preserving the utilitarian appearance associated with a heavily carried service pistol rather than a presentation or collector-grade firearm. It has been permanently deactivated to European Union (EU) deactivation standards, rendering it incapable of firing live ammunition.
