Glock's G17 fires a 9mm Parabellum round, uses the Glock Safe Action system. The Glock 17's fire power is a 17 round standard capacity magazine (which gun control advocates mistakenly call a "high capacity magazine")

Glock's G17 model of pistol was first developed in the early 1980s to replace the [[Walther P38]] [[service pistol]] in the Austrian [[army]]. Since then, the Glock 17 and its other [[caliber]] variants have become quite popular as [[military]] and [[law enforcement]] firearms, being exported in more than 50 countries.
