New glock next week?

[Nojoy621]

I have seen a few gun shops advertising a glock release day on the 26th of August for 2 new models. I haven't heard anything, and I searched the forum but searching anything with "glock" in the phrase returns quite a bit of results.

has anyone heard anything?

Hopefully, a glock carbine. Ill buy that.

It is supposedly the Gen5 Glocks. Should look similar to the one submitted for the Army trials.

 

[Nojoy621]

That seems like a pretty short time from gen4 to gen5. I guess only 100 dealers got selected for to do this early launch deal, and they are saying "new model" so I'm hoping for something cooler than a gen5, but I wouldn't be surprised.

Fingers crossed on a single stack .40

What's different about the Gen5's?

From what is going around it's sort of a hybrid between the "M" model and the MHS model. But who really knows, guess we will know for sure end of the month.

No finger grooves, different rifling in barrel and a few other things I can't remember. I was hoping for a carbine, but I don't think that's going to happen.

It is essentially the Glock XM17\19 that was submitted for the trials. Nothing innovative or crazy special. A single stack .40 or a Carbine would have been a nice addition, instead we get special shovels or a field knife...

 

[ljk]

some people would buy it.

If it has no finger grooves, put me down for a 19. Been waiting for Glock to correct that flaw since they stopped shipping Gen 2 models.

Single stack .40 lol. Why in the hell,would they make a gun very few people would buy? People, police, feds, are dumping their FO-tays like they're a mullet. You can buy police trade in gen4 glocks in. 40 for $300, and even less for older gens.

I'll take a trade-in G22 for $300, Alex! As long as it's a Gen3 gun, that is.

And then a conversion barrel + all the other itty bitty parts to make it a "real" G17.

 

[lovemachine]

I'd rather have a 1911....

I think the G19/G17 coming back out with no finger grooves and the Gen 4 rough texture will be fantastic. And like a lot of us that waited for the G43 for ages, a lot of us have also been waiting on factory finger groove less models to come back. It's more like a mid model change thanks to the Army trials I am sure. Bring it!

Yeah I thought about it but by the time you buy a conversion barrel your gonna have the same money in it as just buying the 9mm to start with. I wouldn't pay more than 250 for a .40 caliber glock. To each their own

I'd much rather have a 3Gen G17...

Went through same thing when I wanted to get all the parts for converting my 23. Just went ahead and got the 19. Now have best of both worlds.
