The '''MAG-17''' is a modular semi-automatic pistol designed and manufactured by the [[Yonderre|Yonderian]] small arms manufacturer [[MAG|Manufacture d'Armes de Gabion]]. It is the primary service pistol of the [[Levantine Union Defense Council]] and used by many of its member states. Principally chambered in 9x19mm, the MAG-17 can be chambered in .357 MAG, .40 FNC, .45 ACP and 10x25mm and can be easily converted from one caliber to another; a change from .357 MAG to .40 FNC requires only a barrel change; a change between 9mm to .357 MAG or .40 FNC and vice versa are accomplished using a caliber exchange kit.

The MAG-17 was designed to be ambidextrous in handling, sporting a catch lever on both sides of the slide and user-reversible magazine release, and all other operating controls are designed so they can be operated from either side. The firearm can be field stripped with no tools. Additionally, the firearm can also be field stripped without depressing the trigger, an additional safety feature to prevent negligent discharge of the weapon. The fire control unit is removable, allowing to switch to a different frame size.
==Design features==
* 3.9-inch (98 mm) barrel length in carry size pistol (MAG-17C) 
* 4.7-inch (120 mm) barrel length in full size pistol 
* Ambidextrous thumb safety 
* chambered in 9×19mm LOTA (can be adapted to fire other calibers like .357 MAG, .40 FNC, and .45 ACP) 
* Slide sub-assembly that captures small components when disassembled 
* Trigger "mud flap" that prevents foreign debris from entering the pistol action 
* Loaded chamber indicator 
* Pistols chambered in 9mm can feature a 17-round magazine as standard with optional 21-round extended magazines available 
* Slide cut-out to facilitate the addition of a reflex/micro red dot sight

==Drop firing problem==
There were concerns that early production MAG-17s may discharge if dropped and the back of the slide hits the ground at a 33-degree angle. The problem was thought to be related to the trigger weight; some triggers were heavy enough that they essentially continued to move due to inertia after the gun hit the ground. Internet publications conducted independent tests that appeared to confirm potential drop firings (at a 40 percent rate). An alternate design that reduces the physical weight of the trigger, sear, and striker while additionally adding a mechanical disconnector was introduced in production models from 2018 and [[MAG]] has since offered a voluntary upgrade program for early production MAG-17s.

==Variants==
* MAG-17 - standard production model
* MAG-17A - machine pistol variant with fully automatic capability and muzzle brake
* MAG-17C - compact version with shorter barrel (98mm/3.9 inches)
** MAG-17CY - compact version with shorter barrel (98mm/3.9 inches) and no safety lever, made specifically for the [[Custodes Yonderre]]
* MAG-17G - heavy duty version intended for 10x25mm or larger ammunition
* MAG-17P - sporterised variant of the MAG-17, designed in 2021 for use by competition shooters. The pistol comes with JULIET MIN sights and tungsten infused RPK heavy grip module, weighs 1.23 kilograms (43.5 oz), has a 130mm (5 inch) match grade barrel, and an overall length of 220mm (8.5 inches)
