The Glock 19x is arguable the best Glock ever made. In my opinion it is. The Glock 45 is a very close second. I own both the 19x and the 45. They are the best Glocks made.
arguably would include facts and logic
Why do you think the 19X is better? I don't need desert tan, a lanyard loop, or front groves. So 2 out of 3 ain't bad.
If you've ever jumped into a patrol vehicle and slammed the end of your holster onto the seat-belt adapter, you'll understand why the slightly shorter slide and barrel length while giving you a full size grip is a good thing. If you want to concealed carry (please do) and you aren't built to conceal a full sized grip then don't buy one. It isn't a difficult concept. There are plenty of aftermarket parts, especially for Glock pistols, to provide you with nearly any combination of grip size / slide / barrel length you could possibly desire. Do some research and stop bitching that a manufacturer isn't given you the limited edition "Hello Kitty" variant you've been Screeching about.
good info as always
Mrgunsngear Channel can some of you bigger channels give him a shoutout he deserves way more subscribers
@@BigRed-oi6ky He had more until TH-cam screwed him over.
Glock 45 best Glock ever made…IMHO
I really think this gun could be the perfect solution for guys like me with big hands who want a slightly smaller slide for concealed carry. The Glock 19 grip is just too small for me to hold comfortably, especially the older models with the finger grooves. Glock makes so many different models, the haters just need to relax. If the demand is there, Glock will make it.
I've been waiting on this review.
I jumped on the G45 bandwagon early after hearing about it. The G45 is my first new Glock since buying a gen 2 over 20 years ago. I've owned it over a month now putting 600 rounds through it without a problem. If I have to give one gripe about it? It would be the trigger. Not that the trigger is bad, just that it could have been smoother. (I'm spoiled by my PPQ's trigger)
If your thinking about getting G45? just do it. You won't regret it.
I have a ppq as well. Never owned a glock ever. But this one really caught my eye I bought one I love it. It doesn't dethrone my ppq but it is a nice shooter.
joe grunt I own two gen 4 G 19’s a gen 4 G 35 owned a G 17 . I’ve owned several other brands over the years and appreciated each for what it was. I am thoroughly sold on Glock durability and dependability. The damned things just run period. I too am looking forward to getting a G 45 and it may well replace my G 19 as my edc.
@lilbeserk still got mine I bought brand new 4/20/95
This hope this doesn’t come off as disrespectful, but you need to change up your audio equipment. The sound quality on in this video is horrible and you sound like you’re underwater.
When It first came out I thought nothing. Got one on a blue bow discount and now the 45 its my favorite stock glock they have ever made.
This pistol barrel is 3mm too short to be sold on the Canadian market sadly (102mm vs minimum required length of 105mm) making this a "prohibited" firearm instead of a "restricted" in the sovereign settlement of Canadia. Sad days for us in the frozen north.
Very clear explanation about glock 45 gen 5. It’s a crossover design from different glock models. Thanks God mine is on its way from grab-a-gun. I am very much impressed about this gun. For every youtube video I watch, it’s all positive and excellent comments. I will keep this gun as my new concealed carry because it is a perfect design for self defense, home defense, concealed carry, and for range shootings, because it is known to be reliable in everything. My new buddy👍
I really think the glock is superior to the sig p320
You’re hilarious fanboy
It would have been nice if SIG had passed on some of the cost savings of reusing P250 tooling and components to customers to compensate for the unnecessarily high bore axis.
JusticeAA you can’t back that up with facts
I can,,I've owned Glocks for over 20 years with NO malfunctions call me a Liar if you want but it is what it is like it or not
@@zombiekiller5713 And you can't refute it with facts either.
I recently parted with my 19x to fund the G45 mos. I added night sights, extended slide release, Holosun scs and for giggles the maritime spring cups. Definitely an upgrade plus I never really loved the coyote finish. Great video 👍
I just replaced my G45 for a Sic P320 Xcompact
At 2:35 you state the 19X has the nDLC finish. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the 19X has a nPVD finish. The G45 has the nDLC.
Chris Bartocci. Thank you for another good firearms review. I very much appreciate your thorough and honest research and opinions regarding each weapon you undertake to review and have come to rely on the information that you share. All the best to you in 2019.
I just purchased G45 after comparing to P320. G45 fits my hand perfectly. I'm sure each individual gun will perform well.
Im almost sorry to say but I have The Sig and the Glock versions and the Sig just doesn't scatch the itch.I know it is a great pistol but I rarely use it. I don't like the spongy trigger and it feels bulkier than the Glock.
I was very happy to hear your comment on LRV' S comment. I totally agree with it. The G45 is a combat pistol not a sniper pistol. Almost everyone is so enamored with 5-10 rounds in 1 hole, good luck doing that in combat. I would rather have 2-5 rounds center mass hitting various organs. As usual your presentation is spot. I hope you're enjoying good health.
Should have told DOD to get a clue and get the M9A3
Sir thank you for amazing education on firearms! Glock 45 is an upgrade to the g19x!
Hello Chris. I bought a Glock 45 nearly a year ago and find the full size grip minus the finger groves a huge improvement over the Gen 3&4 Glocks that I own. With the advance of years and worsening Osteoarthritis in my hands I myself constantly shifting my grip with the older Glocks. Not so with the gen5 version. I like it so much that I traded a gen3 Glock34 up to a gen5 and absolutely love that long slide and the increased accuracy. Thank you for another great review. All the best to you and your family. PS. Have you looked at the TruGlo TFX Pro fiber optic tritium sights they have both a tritium vial and glow nicely in the dark as well as fiber optic tubes that light up like neon in daylight. The rear sight is also made with a shelf for one handed racking of the slide. These sights now equip all my semi auto pistols including the Novak style on my Springfield Armory compact 1911 “Ultra Carry”.
Almost bought the 19X but went with the G45 instead. I like the front serrations on the G45. I did like that the 19X came with night sights but $80 fixed that on the G45 and the total price was less than the 19X. So that's a win. Had I bought the 19X, first thing I'd have done was shave off that little nub on the front of the mag well. I know why they put it there but I don't need it. Thanks for the info!
How about 26 slide with a 17 frame
woohoo2491 🤷🏻
I know I'm a little late here, but in your honest opinion is it worth trading in my gen5 19 for this new platform?
Tyler Gentry depends on the size of your hands really. The G45 replaced my G19 as my carry gun.
Hey SAS Glock has a modular magwell for the gen 5 g17, gen 5 g34 and the g45. I put it on my g45 and it’s definitely something you should check out if the g45 is still what you’re running.
Looks like a great gun. We'll never get it in California. Gen 3 is the only option. But, honestly, the Gen 3 Glock 19 I have is a tank so I can't complain. It's my least favorite gun to shoot (I just don't like the feel of striker-fired guns), but it's the one I'd turn to in a bad situation for absolute reliability.
Why we have in Saudi Arabia Glock45 that has USA word on the slider side , however, the Glock 45 I saw in the US all has Austria word written On it ?
Austrian export laws differ from US ones. My guess is Austria had export issues with your country where the US did not so you got American made Glocks.
@@SmallArmsSolutions That could be the reason. I believe the American made Glock has a high quality standards. Thank you for responding to my question. I wish you a good luck.
Great review. Thanks for sharing..!
I must say I'm really impressed with my Gen 5 Glock.
Hi,
Thank you for your informative videos! Quick question: Do you think that Glock will remove the front strap hump on the Glock 19x so that it will take all glock mags? Thx
Glock made an improvement to the breach face to improve the ejection on this particular pistol along with the gen5 19 MOS.
I think 💲 was a big factor too, 😉. As was the XM9 tests: SIG P226, Beretta 92F/92FS, 1980s. For the MHS tests, SIG lowered the X17 9mmNATO down to $206.00/USD 🇺🇸.
I do think the G45 is THE Glock. The 19 seriously has competition now. The model you have with the Idot Ameriglo’s is perfection.
I like the TruGlo TFX pro night sights for carry-duty guns but I agree, the Glock factory AmeriGlo sights are worth the $. I can use Glocks 🚔 Blue Label prices & the Glock 45 9mm Ameriglo is 👍😉🇦🇹.
Great content! Thx a ton. Just purchased a G45 today. Friday I will take her to the range.
I’m a noob when it comes to breaking in a sidearm. Should I use a certain type of 9mm ammo for the first few hundred rounds ? I feel silly asking openly like this lol.
[Koh Tay] any quality ammo will be fine.
Thanks for the informative video.
LOVE my Glock 45. I got the MOS version. Got a TTI 3.25lb spring set, US flag baccplate, Apex tactical trigger, and a TTI +6 mag extension.
My favorite Glock has always been the G17 over the G19. However, the GEN 5 MOS G19 doesn’t have the lip on the magazine well. That may finally convert me over to the G19.

Sitting @High Falls in Rochacha doing surveillance right now, just down the street from your old Monroe County haunt. Got my 3 HK pistolas with me ready to go. But Chris, I noticed no eyes to go with your ears on your range portion. Is that a Texas thing?
The only reason why Sig won because of the money, SIG had a lower offer than Glock. DoD is cheap lol!
I assume you've owned the 19x longer than the Glock 45. So why didn't you switch from the Glock 19 to the 19x? Why did it take the Glock 45 to make you switch? Were you just turned off by the tan color?
ohroonoko partially but the magazine compatibility was a factor. I own both. Like the G45 more
ohroonoko the G45 took all my magazines, I prefer front serrations on the slide as well as black. Also the G45 I got with Ameriglo sights.
Sirs, I'm having issue choosing between G45 and P10c. What ar your thoughts?
Hard, I have both but I chose p320-XC over both
I definitely want one although I am waiting to see if Polymer80 will come out with a frame like this. I just like their frames more than the OEMs and I already have a bunch of gen 3 G19 parts laying around. But the the G45 is the first Glock I actually want!
I believe the sales numbers, my local police department carries the 19x. Having talked to several officers they kinda wish they waited.
I like that the G45 doesn’t have the flared extension at the bottom of the front strap as the G19X does.
Hard to choose between the two, for me at least ... great review btw.
Did Glock wok on the ejection? That pistol really throws the brass.
the ejector is longer
New subscriber, brought here by a mention by Honest Outlaw. Good video on the G45 and philosophy of use.
How’s the recoil on this pistol?
I preferred the finger grooves as well. Still waiting on a 19x mos hopefully...
Thank you, sir, for yet another in-depth & informative review. Thinking of also replacing my Gen 5 19 with the 45 myself, that is, if I don't opt for a G30 SF equipped with 13-round G21 mags.
Either way, the wife's happy (happier, I should say), 'cause she gets the 19 as a daily option with her 26.....and you know House Rule #1, sir - If Momma Ain't Happy 😊, NOBODY'S happy!! 😥
What advantage does this weapon have over the G17? Does the shorter barrel really make it that much easier to conceal?
yes it is i went from a shield to g45 and other than weight its the same to carry
I really want the Gen 5 19 MOS. I don't plan to use a red dot on it I just like it. Add night sights and be good to go.
The Faceless Man82 video will be coming on that shortly.
get yourself a red dot for it, once you become accustomed to using it you wont regret it. You do have to put the time and effort into learning to use the red dot though.
Thanks for clarifying the different uses of the word "modular" within the requirements vs the lawsuit. The lawsuit being about the modular trigger group was probably the driving force on that issue.
Chris I have a question and if you could answer I would really appreciate it. I have a colt barrel marked “C MP 5.56 NATO 1/12”. What kind of barrel is this and what is it worth? I have never seen or heard of this type of barrel before and am curious bc it’s a gov profile with 1/12 twist markings on it
not a big fan of the 9mm but I see a Glock 45 in my near future
We played with a G45 this weekend. It’s a major winner.
Marky
i have been having some issues with Remington green and white box115 grain JHP (hollow points) in my model 45. it will always short stroke the slide, double feed and wont lock open on the last shot. it works great with the hotter stuff. i am also using a correct grip and not limp wristing the gun. i gave it to my uncle to try it out and he is trained military. he was having the same issues with the ammo.
Nicholas Howatson very unusual. I have shot both through mine without issue. Call Glock
Thank you for the good review I have one on the way from Buds I have liked and subscribed
Can you weigh in on the name of the G45? Tim from Military Arms Channel insists that NO glock name has anything to do with patent number. We know the 17 is named after the 17th patent. I believe the 19 and 45 follow a similar convention. Please weigh in, Chris!
ampark09 Tim is absolutely correct!
SmallArmsSolutions please tell Tim from military arms this as he's saying the g19 and g45 have nothing to do with patent number!
ampark09 the 17 was the 17th patent. I do not believe the 19 and 45 were though. That is just the chronological sequence of new models.
SmallArmsSolutions then why is there no 44? Very confusing! And for the record Tim also says the 17 is not a patent number
They dont follow patents. Glock conveniently has their patents listed on their website and they dont match up with the gun model. Rumors are the Glock 44 is still in development and will be announced at SHOT Show.
glock 19 is the best seller because its concealable but its not too small.....since i already have a glock 19 i dont see a reason to buy 45 unless i have lots of extra money....or i may just even go with 17 if i want that more comfortable a bit longer grip
I myself have the 17 and 19 I carry my 19 everywhere I go and I also have the 2 extra magazines with me at all time. I've been saving for the g45 but I am undecided if I do want it or not. I'm more as a yes i will but i might see something else i might like better will see in a couple of months what happens.
@@peterpro2a Well ...what happened? g45 > 17/19
@@rustyshackleford4299 oh that was a big negative ghost rider and that was a 3 yr old comment lol. I used the $$ and just went and got me a bunch of ammo before the prices went sky high as they are.
Thank you for commenting on my comment.
Excellent Details and history facts !
Thank you
Thorough review. I rely upon your reviews and opinion on different firearms Mr Bartocci. I have been considering a Glock 45 for some time now as I find the G 19 gen 4 although a superbly reliable pistol I've grown to somewhat dislike the finger index on the front. It takes me a bit to warm up with the G 19 and such has not been the case with the longer grip minus the finger index on older Glock 17's so I expect I'll find the same to be true with the full size grip on the G 45. Chris a belated wish for a good New Year. It should certainly prove to be interesting with the new administration in the Oval Office. All the best sir.
Looks good and excellent information as always.
And yes, after 1000 rounds, with no malfunctions, the G45 is in my daily carry rotation now. Probably be my primary daily carry now that cooler weather is headed this way.
What ammunition is the most accurate ? Brand and bullet weight please. Thanks.
That’s hard to say. Many variables. It’s safer to say most are comparable. Personal like 124gr for most
The 9x19 was originally loaded with an 8 gram RN bullet. 8 gram = 123 grain, so anything between 115-125 grain would be very close to the original design.
Just bought the glock 45 today. Now I have a vp9, glock 44 , glock 48 mos
I really appreciate the information I have really large hands as well and I was told to buy the glock 19x but I don't like that brown on the gun so when somebody told me the glock 45 was the same gun I want to buy it. I see you have plenty of guns I probably want a couple of pistols I would definitely carry this pistol. but I want me 2 springfield xd guns and what's your opinion on the ruger sr9 security gun
@SmallArmsSolutions It's my understanding that the nDLC finish on the the latest Glock models is the same Ion Bond nDLC finish applied to the Sig MK25. Can you please comment? Thank you.
I carry a G45 every day, I love it. I have notice a little bit of wear on the finish on the left side of the slide towards the very front where it rubs in my holster.
Are all parts Glock 19 Gen 5 or does it have 17 Gen 5 parts as well
I’m a huge Gen 5 fan. Never thought I’d be going back to Glock.
Welcome home.
You need a lapel mic. I had to turn up the volume high to hear you talking on my headphones then had my eardrums blasted when you cut to the range footage
I think personally our border patrol agents should use the g19x
I can’t believe they didn’t go with the Glock
I like what I see and am very interested in getting several of these. If it was in Sig .357 I wouldn't bat an eye cutting a cheque for a half a dozen of them.
no plans on any caliber besides 9mm and .40 i think. but ifbu get a conversion barrel for .357 ull be good
Cz p10c or glock 45????
david029014 G45 all day!
I also like the ejection of the G45, no more brass in the face.... It kicks brass.....
never had the brass to the face issue, but yeah gen 5 glocks kick that brass a mile away. Its actually kinda frustrating since I try and pick up my brass lol
@@confederatejeb wheaton.barrel.com
What did Glock change to improve ejection so much?
longer extractor with a lighter extractor spring. fired brass instead of going in face
How can you not address the name?
Spencer King nothing to address. Glock never named a model after a caliber.
Great review Chris, it’s a awesome pistol.👍
The military's LOSS is LE's gain.
I have the g45 and luv it put around 1k rounds with noooo issues at all......also have the gen 3 g23 luv it 2 2k rounds no issues.....thanks glock
Mine was just replaced with a Sig P320 Xcompact
I see that you did this review back in Nov. 2018. I was wondering if still your carry and still loving it? I I have GEN 4's 19 & 17 and was thinking about getting this one. Would love to hear back on how's it carrying for you. Thanks Scott from Texas
Gluckstadt007 this is still my carry gun.
Glock perfection. Let me just keep reiterating though
I wanted a dedicated edc. I just picked up the g45 mos. still on my ten day background check. I’m still contemplating if I should’ve gotten the g19 mos. you think I made the right choice?
Tony Daravong I carried a G19 before the G45 replaced it.

Got the G45 & my only regret is not waiting for the MOS version or getting the 19X years ago. Thinking about getting the 45 cut for a RMR & nitrided.
Me as well
New channel too me... good vid and info thanks.
😂
Chris, is the 19x a true gen 5 gun?
LWRC BCM not entirely
Ordered mine, should be getting it any day now.
19x for spec ops and g45 for police
For those of you that own both a full size glock and this 45 model is one any more accurate than the other ?
No noticeable difference
I'll pic up the new p10c coming
Why make that comment in here ? This video is snt about cz
@@boomee78 somebody always has to
My biggest gripe with the 19 was the grip being just a hair too short for me and my gripe with the 17 was the slide being too long for me to comfortably appendix carry. The 19X solved those problems and I carried it but always hated the baby poop color. Once I heard a Federal Agency was adopting a "Black 19X with other features spec'd" it became a waiting game for me.
I needed to hear that, thanks!
I’d like to buy an MOS version of this...

can I ask how you carry this thing? I just bought one and was wondering if it would be too big for carry
Kingsley Zissou inside the pant holster on my side. I am a big guy,easier to conceal.
same
Thanks again Chris!
Are any of these usa made
Sometimes
Jw lol bought one waiting to pick it up, was wondering what my chances where to have one made in the usa
@@yingyangfitness really, luck of the draw. You never know what you are going to get. I have 20 Glock pistols in my collection. Four of them are Glock USA made (G17M, G41, G44 and G42). The G42 and G42 pistols are all made in USA due to import restrictions. The 17M and G41 come both USA and Austrian made.
@@SmallArmsSolutions pretty cool to know, up until recently i wasnt even aware of this. Hopefully one day i come across a usa built one! Thanks for the info your videos are great! Lol i also didnt know about the 17m until i watched your video
I just wish it didn't have the front serrations. I like customizing my gun. This limits their options for machining. If you're not into customizing slides, I'm sure this is a welcomed change.
