The dimension from the top of the slide to the bottom of the accessory rail is slightly greater on the Gen 5 than with the Gen 4. The grip texture is identical to the Gen 4 and is serviceable, unless you have wet or bloody hands (therefore, be sure to stipple your Glock if it is a carry gun). Perhaps because of this change, the frame is very slightly wider and very slightly taller than that of the Gen 4. The Gen 5 Glock 19’s largely unadorned slide comes in black Melonite finish that is then treated with an nDLC coating. There are some who disagree and find the G19 or any Glock pistol to be just fine without this slight modification work. This anomaly went away after about 1000 rounds and never did impact the performance of the gun.
Would a Glock 19 Gen 5 MOS be a good first gun option?
The slide has the superior GLOCK hard-surface nDLC finish in non-reflective black. The slightly different frame dimension can present holster-compatibility issues is you have a mounted light. Note, however, that the slide-stop spring is no longer a leaf spring, but rather a traditional compression spring (which is very hard to install once disassembled!). None of the previous-generation Glock OEM or aftermarket triggers will fit the Gen 5. This means that your gun will probably be too tall to fit into a hard (Kydex) holster with a light.

Every G19 Gen5 features the match-grade GLOCK Marksman Barrel (GMB) delivering increased accuracy with polygonal rifling and an improved barrel crown. It comes with front serrations (FS) which provide an additional tactile surface choice when manipulating the slide giving the operator positive traction even with wet or sweaty hand. The GLOCK 19 glock 19 for sale Gen5 pistol in 9 mm Luger is ideal for a more versatile role due to its reduced dimensions. If you’re interested, but not sure if the Gen 5 if for you, rent one and put a few rounds through i


Later third-generation models additionally featured a modified extractor that serves as a loaded chamber indicator, and the locking block was enlarged, along with the addition of an extra cross pin to aid the distribution of bolt thrust forces exerted by the locking block. The barrels were later redesigned with thicker bore walls, and manufacturing continued to evolve and improve the design of Glock pistols. The first Glock 17s imported to the US were serialized with an alphanumeric (two-letter prefix followed by three numbers) stamped into the slide, barrel, and a small metal plate inserted into the bottom side of the polymer frame. This has led to "Glock" becoming a generic term including pistols not made by Glock GmbH, especially as expiring patents allowed complete Glock clones to be mad

Fifth-generation models
The short frame was originally designed to compete in the now cancelled U.S. military Joint Combat Pistol trials for a new .45 ACP pistol to replace the M9 pistol. glock 19 for sale There are also the wider double-stack "large frame" Glock pistols for use with larger calibers, currently in 10mm Auto and .45 ACP. Recently, so-called "crossover" versions in 9mm Parabellum pair short (front to back) "compact" frames with longer "standard" grip lengths. The other two form factors use the full-size "standard" frame with longer slides that include a lower section to fill in the space between the frame's dust cover and the front of the slide. "Compact" models are slightly smaller with reduced magazine capacity and lighter weight while maintaining a usable grip lengt

Barrel
The earliest Glock boxes had ammunition storage compartments that allowed for 17 rounds of 9mm to be stored with the pistol. In 1985, after joint Norwegian and Swedish trials from 1983 to 1985, the Glock 17 was accepted into service as the P80 in Norway, and in 1988 as the Pistol 88 in Sweden, where it surpassed all prior NATO durability standards. Glock was then invited to participate in the XM9 Personal Defense Pistol Trials, but declined because the DOD specifications would require extensive retooling of production equipment and providing 35 test samples in an unrealistic time fram


The two fifth-generation models announced were the Glock 17 and Glock 19, chambered for the 9×19mm Parabellum. In October of that year, the IMPD issued a 17M voluntary recall following failures encountered while dry firing the pistols during training. The solicitation specifications deviated from the specifications of Glock fourth-generation models. In late 2010, Glock continued the introduction of fourth-generation models with the Glock 26 and Glock 27 "subcompact" variant
