Not going to get into a Sig vs. Glock pissing match but is your 17 a Gen4? Lot of improvements over the Gen3 in my opinion -

Pistols and guns are subjective, what feels good in the hand for one person doesn't feel good for another -

But unless you have gorilla hands I wouldn't worry about slide bite, and they do provide beavertailed backstraps for your G17 Gen4 if you do - and that low bore axis is what makes Glock such a soft shooter -

Full disclosure I am a believer in the Glock "perfection" so I may be a bit biased but I also own a P320 Compact (in 45ACP so 9+1), PPQ in 9mm, and recently purchased a VP9 so I appreciate all the different striker pistols in their own right (except for an M&P, that pistol does absolutely nothing for me)
