Just spotted this on SRC facebook page. Not really my cup of tea but I thought people might be interested in seeing it. From the vague comments it looks like it's going through testing at the moment but probably isn't that far off. Hats off to all these small specialist companies developing products which work to the letter of the law.

For the record I know nothing other than what is in this picture about the firearm.

Given the initial light weight of a 17, I'd assume a terrible balance & handling ?

How is that barrel going to be able to move like the original?

The same way a silenced Glock does?

.22 pistols can operate as a straight blowback with a fixed barrel

I know the supplier in this instance is SRC, but I thought Icon Arms had abandoned the idea of bringing in the Glock LBP. Does that mean Icon will bring them in as well?

Looks like I will have to get a second slot for a LBP on my Ticket. Waiting on my Sig to be delivered. With the Glock it will make an iconic team - one in each hand !!!!

Interesting that the slide has no Glock markings. Possibly adapted aftermarket rimfire glock slide like Tac-Sol. The frame is the issue, if it was manufactured as a conventional pistol it's section 5 forever. So they need to source new frames from the factory.
Think that's the same issues that Icon arms had with Glock.
