JJHNSN Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 (edited) This is an excellent analysis of the Glock Gen 5, from RECOIL http://www.recoilweb.com/inside-the-glock-gen-5-129141.html Edited August 25, 2017 by JJHNSN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KFC Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 I may finally pick up a Glock 19. Of course, I'll have to feel it in hand first, but it looks good so far. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 19 is a fantastic pistol IMO. Not too small and not too big. Excellent capacity too. I doubt I'll get a gen 5 simply because I really don't desire another Glock. I have enough as it is. Good luck on your decision. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spats McGee Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 I've been hearing about Gen 5 and I'm curious about them. I don't see trading off my perfectly good Gen 4 for one, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonS Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 The grip looks better, assuming the "leaked" photos are correct, but I don't like ambi stuff, especially ambi stuff that was added to an existing design. What was that guy's name? Rube something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smith10 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 No finger grooves is good. Want the other changes field tested to see what needs tweeked. Love the mid size, G19 has been the bar set for a long time now, hard to beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 I bet part of the reason for the new barrel is a result of the Miami barrel concept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJHNSN Posted August 26, 2017 Author Share Posted August 26, 2017 (edited) Just preordered from Omaha Outdoors, which has VERY reasonable pricing on Gen 5s and only $10 shipping. Got a Glock 17 Gen 5 with three 17rd mags for $560. I will replace the stock sights with Trijicon HDs. Didn't feel it was worth paying extra for the Amerigo plastic sights.

PNWguy Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 I got my blue line pistol purchase certificate a couple of weeks ago and was planning on getting a G34 for $507 this Fall. Now it looks like I may just wait for the Gen 5 G34 to be released, whenever that may be... I like ALL of the changes on the Gen 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First, I do not click links to videos except to someplace like YouTube, FoxNews etc. Second, you are so far from being able to hurt my feelings that you cannot possibly conceive of how unimportant you, this topic, or your opinion are. Have a nice life, don't bother to reply, I won't see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
