Which would you prefer at a similar price?

I am looking for a range/home defense pistol and had the opportunity try out various Glock gen 5s. I narrowed it down to the 45 and 17, but felt that I shot the gen 5 17 better.

In my country there are no gen 6 available to rent/try but I do like the upgrades on paper, especially the new grip.

I have read online that the gen 6, especially the 17, has a different felt recoil than the gen 5 due to a change in the spring. How much does that matter?

If I preferred the 17.5 over the 45.5, would I still prefer the 17.6 over the 45.6?

Thanks in advance

Does anyone have any info on the older 500 mariner (matte version)? Is there any reason to prefer it over a new 590?

Would you prefer a (not heavily) used black DT-10 trap (comes with a double barrel + a single barrel) or a brand new 688 trap?

Where I am the 688 is 5000 USD new and I think I can negotiate the DT-10 to about 6/7000 USD.

Would a Vortex Razor Gen II HD-E 1-6x24 VMR-2 with the MRAD reticle (SFP) make sense on a 16in Ruger Gunsite Scout in .308 with an XS rail?

Does anyone run something similar? Would a 2-10 make more sense?

My range has a max distance of 200m but I hope to be able to shoot farther once in a while.

Cheers
