Why Upgrade to the BA Premium 5" Threaded G17 Gen 5 Barrel
Match-grade 9mm barrel engineered specifically for Glock 17 Gen 5 geometry
Extended 5" length adds dwell time and velocity while providing a proper shoulder for devices
1/2×28 muzzle threads accept popular compensators, brakes, and suppressor mounts*
QPQ (nitride) finish inside and out for superb wear, corrosion and carbon resistance
Drop-in fit for most OEM Gen 5 slides—typically no gunsmithing required
Ballistic Advantage Premium Series pedigree known for consistent accuracy and smooth lockup
*Verify alignment and follow all local laws regarding threaded barrels and suppressor use.
Built for Accuracy You Can Depend On
Ballistic Advantage optimizes chamber geometry, feed ramp, and crown to deliver repeatable point of impact and reliable feeding across bullet profiles. Expect clean lockup, consistent ejection, and groups that reward good fundamentals. The extended length can add a touch of velocity for flatter shooting and improved terminal performance from common 9mm loads.
QPQ: Durable, Low-Friction Protection
The QPQ (quench–polish–quench) nitride treatment diffuses nitrogen into the steel, boosting surface hardness, lubricity, and corrosion resistance—without a thick coating to chip or peel. The result is a barrel that cleans easier, shrugs off moisture and sweat, and keeps its sleek black finish after high-round-count sessions.
Threaded Versatility (1/2×28)
With industry-standard 1/2×28 threads and a proper shoulder, you can add:
Compensators to reduce muzzle rise and speed up follow-ups
Thread protectors for slick, snag-free carry
Suppressor pistons/Nielsen devices (where legal) for quiet, soft-shooting setups
Safety Note: If running a suppressor, confirm bore concentricity with an alignment rod and follow your manufacturer’s torque and piston guidance.
Ideal Use Cases
Competition & Range: Faster splits with comps, predictable POI, and reliable cycling
EDC Training: Match-grade consistency for skill building with your carry platform
Suppressed Sessions: QPQ interior and standard threads simplify setup (where permitted)
Custom Builds: Premium performance in a clean, OEM-friendly aesthetic
Compatibility
Pistol: Glock® 17 Gen 5 (factory slide & most Gen 5-spec aftermarket slides)
Caliber: 9×19mm (9mm Luger)
Muzzle Threads: 1/2×28 TPI
Ultra-tight aftermarket slides, altered locking blocks, or non-standard recoil assemblies may require minor fitting. Always function-check with your specific slide, spring rate, and ammo.
Installation Tips (General Guidance)
Unload and clear your pistol; remove slide and recoil spring.
Drop in the BA barrel and verify smooth lockup by hand-cycling.
Use a thread protector when no device is installed.
If adding a comp or suppressor mount, torque to spec and verify reliable cycling.
Test with a few ammo types to confirm zero and function.
Care & Maintenance
Clean bore/chamber on a sensible schedule—QPQ helps fouling release more easily.
Lightly oil contact and locking surfaces; avoid abrasive media on the finish.
Inspect threads and devices for carbon buildup and proper tightness after heat cycles.
