Glock backstraps

**hawkinsje** · August 31st, 2014, 09:50 AM

So I purchases a used Glock 17 Gen 4 about a year ago, it only came with the medium backstrap. I would like to order a new set of backstraps but cant find them. And youre probably thinking, hey, its not hard to find them. You would be wrong though, see, my Glock 17 is in FDE and all I can find is black. Anyone know where I could look?

If I were you, I'd contact your LGS and see if they can get them for you. I've gone to my LGS for specific cleaners, etc. that I couldn't find. They ordered them for me.

If a LGS can't get them through their distribution network, they probably can suggest where you may be able to find them.

I see you have a wtb classified ad here but have you tried glocktalk?
I know alot of people buy the Gen 4 models for the smaller grip so you might be able to find someone who will never use the large one so they may be willing to part with it.
Good luck with the search.
