The Recoil Spring Assembly – Fits G17T Only (Part #3706) is a dedicated replacement recoil system designed specifically for G17T training pistols. Whether you’re an instructor managing a fleet of training guns or an agency armorer tasked with keeping your non-lethal Glock-style trainers running smoothly, this recoil spring assembly is a critical component for maintaining realistic function, reliability, and safe, consistent operation during force-on-force and simulation-based training.
Purpose-Built for G17T Training Pistols Only
This recoil spring assembly is engineered to fit G17T training variants only (not standard live-fire Glock 17 models):
Designed exclusively for G17T training pistols
Not intended for use in live-ammunition firearms
Maintains correct cycling characteristics for training-specific slide and barrel assemblies
If you’re running dedicated training pistols, using the correct recoil spring assembly ensures the system operates as intended and helps prevent compatibility issues.
Restore Reliable Cycling & Realistic Slide Movement
Over time, recoil springs fatigue and wear out—especially in high-use training environments. Replacing a worn assembly with a fresh one helps:
Restore smooth, consistent slide movement
Improve reliability of cycling with training rounds and marking cartridges
Enhance the realistic feel of recoil and return-to-battery during drills
A healthy recoil spring assembly is essential for maintaining the authentic handling qualities that make G17T pistols valuable training tools.
Ideal for High-Volume Training Environments
G17T pistols are often used in settings that see heavy round counts and frequent cycles, such as:
Law enforcement academies and in-service training
Military and security training programs
Force-on-force, scenario-based, and simulation training schools
Private training facilities and dedicated instructors
This recoil spring assembly is a smart, cost-effective way to keep your training guns mission-ready and downtime to a minimum.
OEM-Style Design for Consistent Performance
Built with training reliability in mind, this recoil spring assembly features:
An integrated spring and guide rod style design for easy installation and removal
Proper spring tension tailored for G17T slide and training ammunition compatibility
Materials designed to withstand the repetitive cycling typical of training use
Using a correctly spec’d recoil spring helps reduce abnormal wear on other components, preserving the life of your training pistols.
Simple, Armorer-Friendly Replacement
Swapping out the recoil spring assembly is a straightforward task for qualified personnel:
Drop-in replacement – no fitting or modification typically required when used with correct G17T models
Can be installed during routine cleaning, inspection, or scheduled maintenance
An essential part of any armorer’s spare parts inventory for training pistols
Always ensure the pistol is unloaded, cleared, and handled safely, and follow your agency’s armorer procedures and manufacturer guidance when performing any maintenance.
Extend the Service Life of Your Training Fleet
Regularly replacing worn recoil spring assemblies is a key part of preventative maintenance:
Helps reduce malfunctions like short-stroking, failures to return to battery, or sluggish cycling
Supports consistent performance across multiple training sessions and student classes
Protects your investment in expensive training platforms by minimizing excessive stress on slides and frames
If your G17T pistols are starting to feel “soft,” sluggish, or inconsistent, a fresh recoil spring assembly is often a simple, effective fix.
Perfect for Agencies, Ranges & Professional Trainers
The Recoil Spring Assembly – Fits G17T Only (3706) is an excellent choice for:
Police, sheriff, and federal LE agencies using G17T pistols for force-on-force training
Military units and training commands that rely on simulation guns for CQB and scenario-based drills
Professional firearms instructors and training companies that run multiple G17T pistols daily
Any organization building a spares kit to keep training gear operational without delays
Having dedicated recoil spring assemblies on hand ensures you can quickly swap out worn components and keep training on schedule.
