I bought a g19.5 last Sat. and am waiting on the background check. During the research and lust phase while waiting, I noticed the g19 gen 5's used to have the half moon cut out on the magwell that ppl hated. Thank you for posting your vid to confirm the newer g19.5 have fixed that crappy "feature". Even more excited for mine now... Great Vid!
Haha same for me. While waiting I watched videos and they had the half moon and I stopped to think “uh oh did I notice the cutout or not” lol. Thanks for watching and the great feedback! If you haven’t seen I just posted a video on a light for this gun. Stay tuned lots of new stuff coming!
I got same gun but with MOS and metal Ameriglo night sights. Wouldn’t have gotten it with those sights you have. Also just purchased the 23 MOS with the night sights. Never was a Glock guy until the 5.5 version came out. Nice carry guns!
I noticed I didn't get a test fire shell with my Gen 5 23. Guess ammo is scarce now they stopped doing it lol. I went with some regular Ameriglo night sights on mine too. Green front, yellow rear. I like them, but I wouldn't recommend them. Wish I could have found a different set, but I didn't want to wait for them to come in the mail.
I was thinking about the same set or very similar it was ameriglo and the same colors. What didn’t you like about them? I’m about to order some sight here soon, just so hard choosing.
@@northfltactical8044 I think I like my Meprolight TruDot on my 26 better because the rear is a swept back design/ plus they're green/green. They seem easier to line up. Something about the yellow rear makes it harder to focus on the green front with the Ameriglo. They're a fine set of sights so I guess I should just get better acquainted with them before I trash them. They are pretty sharp at night compared to the Meps, but I think it's because they're brand new.
They keep the fired shells for database purposes, if shell’s are found on a crime scene they can take em n run em threw der database 2 find out who was shooting so be careful my man!
Thanks for a simple and straightforward video. Informative. It seems you bought online. Could you share the online store URL? I'm thinking of getting one. The local stores have sold out. Thanks again.
Thank you for the great compliment! I try my best to be straight forward and make the video easy to watch. I actually purchased my pistol in stores. Hop onto glocks website and they have a couple tools you can put your zipcode into and it’ll show dealers near by.
Did they actually stop making the mk1 version or can you still get them? I hated the mag well cutout and want to avoid getting an earlier one. If I order online, I'll be sure to look for the front serrations on the slide.
Everyone. Just come to AZ and get your guns. It's bs reading all these comments about waiting days for a background check. Walk in today, walk out with your gun in like 2 hours.
I Just Bought a New Glock 19 Gen 5 today,, will I be doing anything bad to the gun if I shoot it for the first time without doing any cleaning//lubricating first ?
If I wasn't a firearm collector and didn't buy every new avalible Glock since 1988? To me, buying a Glock 19 Gen 5 to replace a Gen 4 wouldn't be worth it. This is the same thing that I bought over the years to replace a particular model with a newer so called upgraded one, newer doesn't mean better. If I wasn't a collector instead of a novice, some of them would have been a big waste of money.
Some people only upgrade from the gen 4 to gen 5 because of the cut out on the bottom side of the grip. I never had a 19 so I focused on the Gen 5 from the beginning.
I think California has a restriction on how many rounds can be in a hand gun. I believe it’s 10 the 19 holds 15. But I believe there are custom mags for it that hold 10.
If you're overweight you have bigger priorities that outweigh anything heavy life firearms. You should be more worried about lifting yourself not some new Glocks.
I work 50+ hours in the sun on heavy machinery every week. Lifting, getting up and down and moving fast. Half the people I see come into my field don’t make it and most look like you. So I could care less what someone has to say on TH-cam behind a screen and keyboard. There is obviously some things wrong with you that need worked on for you to act the way you do. Hope you get that help.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with using the "Slide Release" for exactly what it was designed for: releasing the locked back slide to put the weapon in battery. Glock states that expressly and refers to it as a "Slide Stop/Release". I have been using the "Slide Stop/ Release" to release the slide and put the weapon in battery for over 30 years on all my Glock pistols. I have had zero malfunctions, breakages or wear (other than the paint wearing off the part). Cautions to not use it to release the slide are myth and bunkum.
Nothing at all wrong with polymer sights. They are made of the same material as the frame of the pistol and the core of the guide rod assembly. Some people don't like them, but I have had only one OEM polymer forward sight fail on any of my Glocks in 30+ years. One melted a bit after shooting over 600 rounds in a defensive pistol course, but still functioned fine. I did however, replace that and the rear with factory steel sights from glock duplicating their polymer sight style. Those didn't melt in subsequent courses - but neither did the polymer sights on any of my other Glocks. Must've just got a bad one.
The trigger is like a squirt gun, the grips are better on a water bottle, the sights stink and they can be finicky on ammo. Other than that, Glocks are great.
Glock U sights still suck. Why do people keep saying ambidex-tri-ous? It's almost as bad as saying clip when you mean magazine. Sorry. That's just a pet peeve.
That’s why I said I’m getting different sights. Also tomato, tomata. Why do people think others care about their pet peeves. Sorry. That’s just a pet peeve.
Lol in all seriousness, get behind a camera and see how many time you gotta restart and than you just say F- It and if you mess up it’s whatever. Thanks for watching and the comment. Watch out for the next Glock unboxing. Plus I’ll have a sight video coming out soon.

Getting mine in next summer for 3500$ yeah 3500$ in Lebanon 🇱🇧, brand new in box comes with 4 extra mags and a laser and a red dot
Didn't know any gen 5s were missing front aerations???! Was that really early models ?
Yes it was
Good video my guy
Thanks man! Watch out for the videos coming soon. 20 subs and I post the first attachment video!
I’d have to agree with the others this is a great video. Thumbnail was enticing. Video was informative but didn’t leave me snoring. Keep up the work.
Thank you! I try my best for just being a new channel!
I’m excited to get mine. I got the UC Glock 19 with Ameriglo night sights.
I have the 19X. My next Glock will be the 26. Good unboxing.
I daily carry a 26 now. Absolutely love it. I carry it with a 19 mag so I still have 15 rounds and a full grip on the gun.

I have one of those and I love ho the way it feels in the hand, very comfortable and I love it
Small hands?

the ejector is different in the first version as well
Getting mine soon, can’t wait tbh🤝🏾💥
Awesome man
I paid $459 blue label program....my first glock!
Lol seeing this video first, but keep going bro ! I wonder what trigger you going for ? I’m def getting the baldr mini as well 👌🏾
His hands scared me so I had to press back.
The front serrations look terrible but it’s still a good gun to have.
I pick mine up tomorrow
How comfortable ist that grip for you hand?
Love it
Bro you need a bozuka with those hands ✋.
Florida man strikes again!
Would be interested in seeing some night sights on this gun for a video
I have many videos coming soon for this gun, sights will be one come here in the near future
Where did you get the 30rd magazine from?

My gen 5 doesn’t have the cut out
I just recently bought a Glock 19 Gen5 but I didn't get but two backstraps with the beaverton. Don't know why.
That is odd.
good video! definitely helped me make my next gun purchase.
Thank you!
good
Nice
Thanks
Everyone. Just come to AZ and get your guns. It's bs reading all these comments about waiting days for a background check. Walk in today, walk out with your gun in like 2 hours.
That’s why I love fl. If you have your concealed you can be in and out as quick as you can do the paper work
2 hour? No thank you.
@@iSprayRice it was in relevant to the states that make you wait to pick it up. We still go through the background check like everyone else fool
@@northfltactical8044 yes, lol. That's every state
Or you can go to the dark web. No background check required
I Just Bought a New Glock 19 Gen 5 today,, will I be doing anything bad to the gun if I shoot it for the first time without doing any cleaning//lubricating first ?

Also the holster video will be out tonight so watch out for that!
@@northfltactical8044 I'll look for it thanks! My only problem is that I'm left handed. The biggest reason I went for the gen 5
@@joshhaney9769 yeah gen 5 has the ambidextrous features so works out for you lol
@@northfltactical8044 that's the main reason I wanted it
Sweet pistol and video.
Thank you! Hope you can enjoy more down the road!
Geechaw, ambidextreeus 😵💫
Shoulda spent a little extra coin and went with the MOS version IMO
I would’ve if I could’ve found it at the time
@@northfltactical8044 Nothing wrong with a standard G19 but I threw a 507C on mine and I love it soooo much more now
You can just purchase an aftermarket plate that slots into the rear sight groove and attach the sight to that
Plus they make slides with a cutout to put on if you want.
Yeah the mos versions have been a little elusive recently, when I bout my g19 gen5 I could find an mos either.
Full size?
Can a California resident buy a Glock 19 Gen 5 online?
Thank you

@@andog6092 So tell me which brand did you go to?

You’ll love it! Be sure to sub and keep up with the 19 build for ideas! Posting a holster video today!
What is a good type of bullets for glock 19 ?
I like Hornady critical defense for carry. And for range I shoot federal.
9mm
The best bullets to use on Glock 19 gen 5 is Critical Defense 9mm or Rip 9mm .

Slide stop, not slide release. If you use that to drop the slide you gonna break your you eventually.
It’s action is to catch and release the slide. Without it it won’t catch nor release it.

Why is glock still making guns with plastic sights?? They should be so far beyond that at this point.
I agree.

Glock is not a pretty gun, three mags out of the box makes it nice.
The trigger is like a squirt gun, the grips are better on a water bottle, the sights stink and they can be finicky on ammo. Other than that, Glocks are great.
