I agree. I tried the shield mags and thought they looked and felt cheap and heard all of the reliability horror stories. Switched to the PSA and will run them interchangeably at the range with the stock mags and notice no performance differences between the two.
In my humble opinion, the Glock 48 is one of the best CCW options on the market today, Longer sight radius and softer recoil is a definite plus. Using factory parts in critical components such as mags and internal trigger parts also makes the most sense in an EDC tool. #greatvideo
@@mikerobinson8734 you're assuming your RDS will never fail. In a defensive scenario always train/prepare for the worst case scenario not the everyday. "What can wrong will go wrong"
Try shooting the 48 one handed and you see why this will always be my EDC. It is spot on. The barrel does not rise and the recoil is felt pushing directly back on the grip. For this reason I love the gun. You won't always have a cool two handed tacti cool stance when fighting for your life laying on the ground.
Have 43X & 48 but I shoot the 48 naturally more accurate out to 20 yards . Love the 48 so much I'm trading a 22 on a G48 MOS . My only regret is I didn't wait for the MOS.
I honestly think it’s size. People still think a smaller gun is better. Not sure if that will ever be fixed. Even though the data out there says otherwise
My 48 is setup with the same sight and I love it. I would have like an RMR but couldn't bring my self to pay for it. It turns out I LOVE the circle/dot reticle. So fast and easy to acquire a target. Otherwise, I use my 48 as a summertime carry gun replacing my Glock 42. I had +1 extensions for the 42 to give me 7+1 of .380 so 10+1 of 9mm beats it every day. In the winter I switch to my Gen 5 19 just because I usually have a bit bulkier clothes. I feel like either way I have plenty of rounds (11 or 16) to handle any situation I'll hopefully never find myself in. A lot of guys seem to think they are going to wind up in an extended shootout of some sort which is highly unlikely. The only thing I don't like is I'm a lefty and the slim magazine release on the 48 is really difficult to engage without shifting hands. I assume they didn't make it ambidextrous because there wasn't room in the frame to do so but it sure would have been nice. Also, like you, I stick to factory everything on my guns. I don't have trouble shooting any of them just the way they are. Usually all the Glock failures I see are related to some after market parts that were added.
@@jlinka79 plenty of sigs going off on there own with no trigger pull. It’s impossible to have the same thing happen with a Glock due to the design of the safe action trigger. Telling someone to grow the fuk up while sounding like a child. Smooth move buttercup.
My favorite edc gun. The 7 sub is a great addition. I never carried with a light but I like it. Got my dot, magwell, and s15 mags. Just needs Talon grips.
I got the 43x mos and wish I gotten this instead. I run a tlr7 sub light and it protrudes a bit passed the barrel on the 43x while with the 48 it would be flush. Essentially it would fit the same way my 43x would in my holster so I don't see the point in a shorter barrel anymore. Never had any problems with shield mags though
Pick up a threaded barrel! Unless you'd want the longer sight radius. I just like having a threaded barrel on my 43x so it can be the same length as the 48, but still can be used with a suppressor. I currently have the Griffin Armament micro carry comp installed.
Just buy a Crowell’s g48 slide or a micro dagger c1 complete slide and have both. I have the g43x and microdagger c1 slide. Both are options and takes me 30 seconds to swap
@@TheWanderer4171 i ended up purchasing a sig p365 and i freaking love it!! Such a great gun , its very easy to conceal and its slim..also for such a small gun its pretty damn accurate!
"sticking to factory" on a glock of all guns is ridiculous, and not realizing the potential of the gun by refusing the s15 mags is unreasonable when you specifically have a pimped out p320 you're comparing it to in the video
The 320 is actually all OEM factory internals. The trigger Grouo is stock. The frame is Wilson just like a stipple frame on a glock. The S15 mags have failed, just like the p320 has had issues. Not sure what your point is.
Everywhere you see these s15 defenders. I have owned 3 S15 mags and I stopped using them. Yes they work pretty well but Glock’s slogan isn’t “works most of the time”. If you use S15 mags then you no longer have Glock Perfection. Not worth it in my opinion. If I want a fun range gun with cool stipple and lightening cuts and super light red trigger, then sure I’ll use S15 mags to show off but for my carry or duty guns, I just use stock Glocks.
@@rensuzugamori2531 I have never had a factory glock. That never had a problem. The slogan is just that a slogan. Ammo, mags, the human shooting it all play a factor. At the end of the day. The malfunction is exactly that. The person experiencing the malfunction should be skilled enough to address the type of malfunction and get the pistol back up to working order. Since adding the S15 mags and adding the Metal mag release there. Have been zero issues with feeding or extracting. To rely on a slogan is a bit much, at the end of the day nothing is Murphy proof. OEM or aftermarket.
@@rdrgear eliminate additional variables is what I believe in. yes, you should still do malfunction training regardless if you are using stock or aftermarket. yes, you should still use quality ammo even if you use aftermarket parts. imo, the slogan glock perfection means that you get the same experience across their lineup of sizes and calibers. eliminating extra variables whenever possible.
The shield mags are shit. Shield arms’ approach to QC is to send out non-operational bullshit, make the customer send them back and repeat 3 times until you wind up with mags that finally work At least until they crack, which they will. Do not trust your life to shield mags, just stick to OEM.
Great video, zero BS. I went from a G19 to the P365XL as my EDC...thought I liked it...until I did some scenario training. I got the G19 on-line quicker and shot more accurate. I do know that the G19 is a true combat pistol over the XL. Can I expect similar G19-like performance from the 48? Thank you in advance!
Your input on the Shield mags is flawed. You even state you have never tried one. The Gen 1 shield mags did have some reported issues. They have fixed those issue with Gen 2 line they currently sell. I run the Gen2 mags. 100% reliable, 100% of the time. For anyone interested, get the mags, they are worth it.
I have decided to trade in my G43 for this gun and slowly building it to be my new EDC. First mag released change to accept the S15 mags and then red dot
They definitely don't. I've seen dozens of people complain about feeding issues with the newest gen also. Those mags should never be trusted for anything other than range use.
@@HarryManback0 agreed gen 1 mags were rough the new gen 2 mags have been pretty solid. No issues from the PD’s we service. Many of them have now adopted the gen 2 mags. But oem products always give a little more peace of mind.
2 extra mags ? .. where do you live .. Harlem or Chicago? .. either way thx for the video .. the 48mos .. w 507 green dot works fine for me .. thx again “
Thanks for video. Not that I support capacity restrictions but this gun seems more North America compliant, which is something to consider (including Canada). Praise God
I recently bought a 48 MOS, and I have received conflicting information about whether I can mount a red dot without a plate. Admittedly, I am new to the shooting world and would appreciate any insight. I love the gun and would like to mount a red (or green) dot sight.
I am not a fan of having to mount an optic (higher)on top of a plate. I know my idea of a “perfect G48” will cost more for milling and refinishing, but…. Get a non-MOS G48. Cut the slide (including the rear sight notch) to custom fit my favorite Holosun optic as far back as possible. Cut a notch in front of the optic for the rear sight (combat cut). I believe this would allow co-witnessing, without having to install suppressor height sights. Nothing to block a full view into the optic glass.
Just bought mine and plan to use it as my last carry gun into old age. It's becoming more and more difficult to carry a full size or even my 19. Having said that, I always carry a backup. Hopefully, it'll fill that niche. I'd have stuck with my Max9 if the darn thing had a rail. Yes, i said Max9 for all the ruger haters in the world.
A “true” co-witness you would want to upgrade. But for a’48’carry gun. It did not feel it was a need. It’s not a hard use pistol. So I just used the standard sights and they get it done
I have a bunch of them and 2 that hold 20 I had to file down the mettle off the inside of slide next to the ejector but gun has run great after just look at all your other glocks and make the 48 the same at the ejector point on inside ware the catch for the bullet is sharp angle make that flat like the rest of glock .
Both the average and median number of rounds fired in a self defense shooting is……..2. In those cases where more than 2 rounds were fired, the shooter most often fired to slide lock at a single target regardless of capacity, and in many of those cases it simply wasn’t necessary and the person essentially panicked and opened themselves up to more liability. This may come as a shock to some people but you’re not John Wick out there. You’d be much better served safety wise carrying around a fire extinguisher, dropping alcohol from your life, and eating more healthy than carrying more than 11 rounds in your carry gun. Not to say you shouldn’t carry as many rounds as you want to, but the reality is, it’s really a non issue. The key is carry a gun that is comfortable enough that you’re more likely to carry it and that you also shoot well and feel confident in.
I’ve beat the hell outta my 507K and it has been rock solid. The Shield mags are not fit for carry, way too many malfunctions. Lastly the 48 mos is a much better carry gun than the 43X
11 rounds in the gun, 15 rounds for a reload. If I'm in a situation where I already burned 11 rounds and the problem's not solved, then I need the 15, and I'll take the risk on a 3rd party mag. 🙂 The PSA Dagger mags seem like they have some good reviews, I just ordered a few of those.
Over priced under performing. The Stacatto C. Cant do anything a glock or m&p can’t do. I get it the Stacatto is a hot gun. But I would rather have 12-1300 in my pocket for ammo and training. And if I did have to use my pistol the hurt if loosing for what ever time frame won’t hurt so much
10 rounds are common in most states. If used for law enforcement or retired, under the law enforcement safety act, which lets retired officers carry in all states, 20 and 1 is the norm permitted except for 2 or 3 states.
I’ll take the extra 5 rounds with after market . You even say you prefer the 15 round mags. The added mag doesn’t change the profile of the firearm. 🙄 His review of too hot to handle after 3-15 round mags is a total mis-information statement. Not a very good review in my “shooting professional “ opinion
You know what say about opinions. Did get a cert or something with that title of shooting professional? The extra five will always be handy if the skills are not there to get it done in 10. I guess my 10+ years of carrying a gun for a living, 4 of which I carried a 1911 taught me nothing. :-)
Sig today sucks. I’ll take the 10-round Glock 48 over today’s Sig, any day all day. Why do you need a sign that says “safe area”? For feel-good video effect? Rather silly.
Well I don’t disagree on the glock over sig. your comment about the safe area table. Most organized range facilities have a dedicated are and or table that Is for handling guns. Instead of sounding like an uneducated person regarding guns which you did very well. Just ask. “What’s with the safe area sign”. But with a handle like Colt 10mm security, I should have known.
@@rdrgear No need too just throwing it out there . Ported barrels are starting to be the new comped pistol . Pulse a trained shooter like yourself could utilize a mod like that 👌
@@CA.0verview nah, this is a carry gun, ports do do anything but obscure and hinder my night vision at night and throw spall in my face when shooting from retention in my experience. Recoil management and mitigation can be learned, without a widget. If i was to get some type of Device it would be a Parker mountain machine comp.
A red dot is useless on a carry gun. I own a Glock 48. I will have shot you twice before you find your dot. BTW sports fans, I have been using the Gen 2 Shield mags ever since they came out. Zero FTFs after 100 rounds of Federal 147 HST. Zero FTFs after over 1,000 rds of reloads.
Ok so let me ask you a legit question. How much time do you feel or think it take to acquire a rds. Versus front sight/point shooting. The RDS debate is tough because most who are against it. Have spent very little time on it if any. Scenario: Lethal engagement 7-10 ft. Do you feel the person using a rds is going to need more time to get on the dot? They are already target focused on the threat. Could they not just point. Shoot as well
Joe. Thanks for this comment. I’m going to run some scenarios. Point, shoot, front site, and rds. Not sure if you are following GBRS group. But there is some legit content on topic You are referring to. I will have some new videos that are just kinda shoot the shit. But will be good dialogue for both sides of the topic. Irons and rds thanks again for sparking the thought. Have a great new year. Jeff
@@rdrgear 7-10 feet = shoot from retention. I am good to about 5 yards from retention. I start looking through the sights from 6-10 yds. Hard to explain that as I am looking at the target, but am seeing the sights. My eyes are focused on the target. 10 + yards means front sight focus. The problem with slide mounted RDs is the second shot. I tried a Holosun on a Glock 34 slide. It had a nice big 8 moa circle. I spent too much time finding the dot on the second shot in IDPA. It is not an issue with an USPSA Open gun as the dot is frame mounted and the comp keeps the gun level. I am a Three Gun IDPA Master. I trained LEOs when I lived in Atlanta.
@@joed3264 7-10 feet from retention? 5yds 15ft why risk it? You have plenty of distance to execute a proper grip. Look at target and seeing sights? Well one of the 2 is not in focus and now you have focus on a very small object Where with rds all is in focus. Wether that be a LEO or a ccw engagement. If you are target focuses how are you seeing the front sight. To me it sounds like you did not get enough time on the dot to master rds fundamentals. If you truly had a mastery of rds eyes to target dot will be there. With execution of proper reps.
@@rdrgear Remember that I said it would be heard to explain. I have put a lot more rounds down range than you have. I practice shooting from retention a lot. BTW a human is not a small target. Remember shooting a match is not the real world. It is trigger time, not training. Of course I use front sight focus during a match.
I carried the p320 for almost 2 years and after the first week of carrying the 48 I haven’t went back to the p320. Super light and comfortable
How's the balance & recoil ?
I’ve run 1,000+ rounds through the recently released PSA Micro dagger 15 round mags in my 43x/48. They are solid and fit for carry.
Exactly. Those PSA Micro Dagger 15 round mags are solid. Makes the capacity debate a moot point.
I agree. I tried the shield mags and thought they looked and felt cheap and heard all of the reliability horror stories. Switched to the PSA and will run them interchangeably at the range with the stock mags and notice no performance differences between the two.

In those cases where more than 2 rounds were fired, the shooter most often fired to slide lock at a single target regardless of capacity, and in many of those cases it simply wasn’t necessary and the person essentially panicked and opened themselves up to more liability. This may come as a shock to some people but you’re not John Wick out there. You’d be much better served safety wise carrying around a fire extinguisher, dropping alcohol from your life, and eating more healthy than carrying more than 11 rounds in your carry gun. Not to say you shouldn’t carry as many rounds as you want to, but the reality is, it’s really a non issue. The key is carry a gun that is comfortable enough that you’re more likely to carry it and that you also shoot well and feel confident in.
I’ve beat the hell outta my 507K and it has been rock solid. The Shield mags are not fit for carry, way too many malfunctions. Lastly the 48 mos is a much better carry gun than the 43X
11 rounds in the gun, 15 rounds for a reload. If I'm in a situation where I already burned 11 rounds and the problem's not solved, then I need the 15, and I'll take the risk on a 3rd party mag. 🙂 The PSA Dagger mags seem like they have some good reviews, I just ordered a few of those.
The G48 is for gun hipsters. Why do we like it better than the G19? “You wouldn’t get it.”
If I'm only gonna have 10 rounds I carry my Staccato C with a wilson combat 10 round mag.
Over priced under performing. The Stacatto C. Cant do anything a glock or m&p can’t do. I get it the Stacatto is a hot gun. But I would rather have 12-1300 in my pocket for ammo and training. And if I did have to use my pistol the hurt if loosing for what ever time frame won’t hurt so much
fancy
Bro what glasses are those
I love my G48
10 rounds are common in most states. If used for law enforcement or retired, under the law enforcement safety act, which lets retired officers carry in all states, 20 and 1 is the norm permitted except for 2 or 3 states.
Glock 48 MOS is just a ban state Glock 19
Marketing profits driven
Glock 48 mos over sig every time that's why I have like 6 glocks and no sigs .once you go s15 you don't go back ..
I’ll take the extra 5 rounds with after market . You even say you prefer the 15 round mags. The added mag doesn’t change the profile of the firearm. 🙄
His review of too hot to handle after 3-15 round mags is a total mis-information statement.
Not a very good review in my “shooting professional “ opinion
You know what say about opinions. Did get a cert or something with that title of shooting professional? The extra five will always be handy if the skills are not there to get it done in 10. I guess my 10+ years of carrying a gun for a living, 4 of which I carried a 1911 taught me nothing. :-)
@UCKonxS--JSeXURxed_XzFoA “real life scenarios” you are one of those guys. You guys always make be laugh. Appreciate the chuckle it was a long day.

Hold my beer.

Better late than never
very true.
You can get 15 round mags
If your not 1st your last. “Ricky Bobby”
I like to save the best for last. Lol
Finger discipline!!!!
I carry my 19 I have a 43x but my 19 has gone everywhere with me and I shoot my 19 better

English translation please.
Sig today sucks. I’ll take the 10-round Glock 48 over today’s Sig, any day all day.
Why do you need a sign that says “safe area”? For feel-good video effect? Rather silly.
Well I don’t disagree on the glock over sig. your comment about the safe area table. Most organized range facilities have a dedicated are and or table that Is for handling guns. Instead of sounding like an uneducated person regarding guns which you did very well. Just ask. “What’s with the safe area sign”. But with a handle like Colt 10mm security, I should have known.
Didn’t ask + ratio + sigp365 better
I have no clue what you just said here.
Get your barrel ported !
Why? No need it’s a 9mm pistol lol not sure my recoil management needs any help.
@@rdrgear No need too just throwing it out there . Ported barrels are starting to be the new comped pistol . Pulse a trained shooter like yourself could utilize a mod like that 👌
@@CA.0verview nah, this is a carry gun, ports do do anything but obscure and hinder my night vision at night and throw spall in my face when shooting from retention in my experience. Recoil management and mitigation can be learned, without a widget. If i was to get some type of Device it would be a Parker mountain machine comp.
@@rdrgear there’s company’s who bore out the rifling from the ported length of the barrel to eliminate spalling.
lawl, justify Chinese made quality.
They work and that’s all that matters

A red dot is useless on a carry gun. I own a Glock 48. I will have shot you twice before you find your dot. BTW sports fans, I have been using the Gen 2 Shield mags ever since they came out. Zero FTFs after 100 rounds of Federal 147 HST. Zero FTFs after over 1,000 rds of reloads.
Ok so let me ask you a legit question. How much time do you feel or think it take to acquire a rds. Versus front sight/point shooting. The RDS debate is tough because most who are against it. Have spent very little time on it if any. Scenario: Lethal engagement 7-10 ft. Do you feel the person using a rds is going to need more time to get on the dot? They are already target focused on the threat. Could they not just point. Shoot as well
Joe. Thanks for this comment. I’m going to run some scenarios. Point, shoot, front site, and rds. Not sure if you are following GBRS group. But there is some legit content on topic
You are referring to. I will have some new videos that are just kinda shoot the shit. But will be good dialogue for both sides of the topic. Irons and rds thanks again for sparking the thought. Have a great new year.

@@rdrgear 7-10 feet = shoot from retention. I am good to about 5 yards from retention. I start looking through the sights from 6-10 yds. Hard to explain that as I am looking at the target, but am seeing the sights. My eyes are focused on the target. 10 + yards means front sight focus. The problem with slide mounted RDs is the second shot. I tried a Holosun on a Glock 34 slide. It had a nice big 8 moa circle. I spent too much time finding the dot on the second shot in IDPA. It is not an issue with an USPSA Open gun as the dot is frame mounted and the comp keeps the gun level. I am a Three Gun IDPA Master. I trained LEOs when I lived in Atlanta.
@@joed3264 7-10 feet from retention? 5yds 15ft why risk it? You have plenty of distance to execute a proper grip.
Look at target and seeing sights? Well one of the 2 is not in focus and now you have focus on a very small object
Where with rds all is in focus. Wether that be a LEO or a ccw engagement. If you are target focuses how are you seeing the front sight. To me it sounds like you did not get enough time on the dot to master rds fundamentals. If you truly had a mastery of rds eyes to target dot will be there. With execution of proper reps.
@@rdrgear Remember that I said it would be heard to explain. I have put a lot more rounds down range than you have. I practice shooting from retention a lot. BTW a human is not a small target. Remember shooting a match is not the real world. It is trigger time, not training. Of course I use front sight focus during a match.
