You thought the Glock was already perfect?! Think again! Gen5 is coming your way...

Glock 17 - Gen 5 on Pre-Order

 

[Cureforcancer]

If true i will wait at least year. I refuse to become a beta tester.

 

[Darth]

Interesting choice only releasing this generation in 45ACP.


And now we wait...

 

[Podmonkey]

What are the changes?

 

[Darth]

What are the changes?

Dollars to donuts it's going to be a re-brand of their military contract contender.

 

[Bananabandit]

I judt need a gen1 and now gen 5 to have them all. Wayyy better than baseball or pokemon cards

 

[Cureforcancer]

What are the changes?

"Changes to the Gen 5 slide include a rounded muzzle for faster, safer holstering and a new, tougher finish. Internally the pistols sport a new configuration as well, with a reportedly higher-quality factory trigger."

The FBI and various police departments have been wringing it out for a while now.

 

[Podmonkey]

They gonna finally do forward cocking serrations?

Have they?
I thought they were still waiting for them.

 

[Podmonkey]

Oh thats right the 5 is just a 4 minus the finger grooves right?

 

[Darth]

"The biggest change is to the barrel. Instead of Glock’s standard polygonal rifling, the M-series looks like it will have conventional rifling with a recessed target crown. "


Umm...no.

Indy Metro PD had them in hand about a year ago. They had some issues, so they recalled them and went back to the G22. Haven't heard if they finally switch back to the new 17.

 

[Bananabandit]

So Gen5 will have grips like 1/2 and have a better upper assembly?

 

[ArmedCorgi]

I like the ambi slide release and the rounded muzzle.

 

[DoD1776]

Not as perfect as a beretta

They make nice shotguns, I'll give them that.

 

[Defilade]

I like the ambi slide release and the rounded muzzle.

Gee where did that get that from? every other modern pistol? Along with no Finger groves? LOL! Oh are they going to cut out part of their Slides too?

 

[minderasr]

Does this make my Gen 3 G19 (and 17 and 23) worth more?

Does this make my Gen 3 G19 (and 17 and 23) worth more?

Absolutely. Especially if you sell it to someone in California. Gen 3 are the newest Glocks they can transfer out there.

 

[timboy]

My money says they are putting a external hamer on it to make it safer.

 

[FLA45fan]

Did everyone miss the new, tougher finish?

 

[Catskillkid]

Come on guys, you know they're just going to copy the flawless and safe design of the Sig P320.

Was waiting for that. They are loosing the battle on triggers big time. I'd have bought the G26, but hated the trigger.
