A special wrench is shipped with the pistol to remove the barrel nut for cleaning or to install the provided threaded barrel extension. The 3.8″ threaded barrel is fixed onto the frame, allowing it to serve double-duty as the pistol’s guide rod, with a single, round-wire recoil spring fitted over it and secured in place by a flush-fit barrel nut. The wraparound polymer housing acts as a cover for the breechblock, providing canted cocking serrations and support for a fully adjustable, square-notch rear sight. The breechblock has grooves on both sides that match up with two short frame-mounted rails located at the top of the magazine well. The steel topstrap, which has a matte-black finish, is bent and ported to fit over the muzzle end of the barrel, with the fiber-optic front sight mounted to it with a pair of screws. A flat, one-piece steel stamping, a pinned breechblock and a wraparound polymer housing are secured to each other using two top-mounted, hex-head screws. The slide is an exercise in minimalism, consisting of three major components. The rear sight is adjustable for both windage and elevation. Sights on the P17 consist of a solid-black notch rear paired with a green, fiber-optic front.
