The Differences Among the Glock Generations
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 ธ.ค. 2022
- A Glock is a Glock and that is it at least as far as most people are concerned, but then there are these different types of Glocks and these strange add-ons to their names, like Gen 3 or Gen 4. These little things stand for the different generations.
Now, when you think of other things coming in different generations, you might know that there are actual differences between them. Not always are they enough to matter for everyone or just for you, and sometimes they simply are.

Glock is the Honda civic of guns. Simple yet reliable
seeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee im not crazy everyone gets offended and josh is white and mormon i assume he would know
Which one is the honda accord?
And just like a Civic, a Glock can be totally riced out with aftermarket parts!
Which one is toyota
No. The Toyota of handguns.
Another interesting fact about the gen 5 is that the stock magazines come with an orange follower so that users can easily tell if the magazine is empty or not
Also a better coating and the "marksman barrel".
@@japaokawa yes that too
They also added more weight into the barrels by increasing the diameter. It increases recoil reduction due to more weight in front.
@@josephmartinez3451 didn't know that, thanks for the info!
@@japaokawa Also the slides are alil wider and heavier to accommodate the slightly beefier barrel thus improving recoil even more ^~^ Gotta love Glocks innovation!
I say this as a long time 1911 shooter, the Glock is a world class weapon that would be the gun I would take if my life depended on it. I liked the finger groves but not a deal breaker either way, so maybe some attention to the trigger, the rest is purely cosmetics at this point.
Pretty much.
Only gripe I have with my 1911 is the slide serrations. I have the Remington 1911, R-1 Carry.
The "dehorning" was a bit excessive.
If your hands have ANY moisture or oils on them...
...I have to carry it loaded.
Easier (and safer) than trying to load in a panic.
well you an i are in 2 different Americas, id trust 1911 over the honda glock ud trust a sanchez 380 over a glock and a 1864 colt
@@schrodingersgat4344 is it really the safest gun next to tx22 im not tryna blast my hip off
@@LattenRangsbabydaddy You won't, if you know your manual of arms. Loaded pistol is preferable to one that isn't.
No different than carrying a revolver I. Either case.
As for which is "better": Glock if you plan on beating the piss out of it. 1911 for most other situations.
Then again, what do I know. I have both, and prefer to carry my TT-33.
@@LattenRangsbabydaddy As a retired Special Forces weapons Sgt, that carried the 1911 & actually own more then a couple of dozen of them, I think I know them well. I didn't say I love the Glock more then a 1911. My statement is clear strictly driven by logic not emotion. The Glock is no beauty queen, however they are super dependable, easily serviceable & what do you think the chances are that if you had to scrounge for mags while on the run, your odds are much improved. And the non stop chatter about ammo & ballistics, you think you'll have a much easier time finding 9mm over 45 or 10mm (my favorite). There's a saying in the military "Amateurs talk tactics, professionals talk logistics". My statement was quite precise & clearly stated for a particular purpose, in the end it's a tool that you can bet your life on.
Gen 4 also added a dimple on the trigger bar tab that depresses the firing pin block to deep it from flexing during contact.
6:00 🤣 *How Not To Hold A Glock*
Hurts just looking at it
You can break a thumb that way!
yeah i guess glock thumb is worse than garand thumb
I have a Glock 19 Gen 5 and absolutely love it.
Very simple design, very reliable and eats everything 9mm ammo I put in it.
G19 gen5 is my favorite Glock for sure, especially with a Holosuns SCS and Timney trigger. The G26 gen5 and G19x are great options too with G43 being the best for CC. Imo
they just dropped the 19X MOS, just wish i could afford it, lol.
There are different gen 5's. The cut out on the grip was taken away, the mags sit just a bit extended from the mag well and the smoother trigger pull without the gritty feel. Oh, and match grade barrels.
My buddy got one of the first Gen 5 model 45 caliber 9mm and his doesn’t have front slide serrations.
@@drewchorlton342it’s not a gen 5 😂😅
@@babyskeezLC It says Gen 5 right on it it was one of the first being produce. I was surprised just like you
I had a Gen4 26 that I carried for a couple of years while living temporarily in VA. I LOVED that gun. It fit perfectly in my hands and I loved the grooves. I wasn't thrilled about the 26 Gen5 when I shot one.
I'm a Gen 2 man with the G27
Lol same gun??
@@user-oc8sr3ml9m Yes and no. Same caliber and configuration. The difference is the finger grooves. I prefer the groves on my hand.
Lol that shooting grip at 6:00 hurt my soul 😂
Only for a revolver might I consider that
Yea, thats one way to lose your gun to recoil.
Gen 4 is my favorite but wasn't able to get as many as I wanted so have been forced to buy Gen 3 because I love the finger grooves. I have LONG skinny fingers and with no finger grooves it feels like I'm shooting a nerf gun with no control.
I hope the next gen takes all of the new features from Gen 5 but either brings back finger grooves or has the option for them as they are a must have for my shooting style.

@@dillonc7955 the funny thing is when i watched it i accidentally paused it right after it said that, and i was literally like “wow, really?”

Thank you for a well informed video.
Funnily enough in the airsoft world double recoil springs exist for the Hi-capa, a 2011 clone and it certainly does make the recoil smoother
People need recoil mitigation for airsoft?
@@hcctendeep7047 some airsoft guns have built-in gas-powered recoil for realism. I guess that just takes it a step further.

@@ColonelSanders17 it doesn't help anyone holding a gun like that lol. he's holding it wrong because he wasn't shown how to do it properly. That is 100% what is happening in this video. So please spare me the "what ifs"
Thank God I found you I was looking up online to know the difference and what to choose
Well done my friend. Thank you
They have different calibers that separates them and than you have the long slides which are cool 😎!!!
Still have my gen 2 g19 I bought new in 1994. It came with two 10rd mags because of the slick willie AWB they didn't come with the standard capacity 15rd mags.
After the ban ended I bought a bunch of 15rd and 33rd mags. I think i have less than 200rds through it though, it has been sitting in the safe in its "tupperware" box. I have other handguns that I shoot regularly
Nice vid
I always wanted to know the differences .thanks🎉
Marksman barrel, orange follower and a change to the drop safety were 3 changes missed in this video.
I absolutely love Glock! I have every single caliber available all the way up to the 10mm. If there should be any further modifications, perhaps, better thicker and slicker triggers out of the box and maybe some cosmetics. I know all this can be done in after market, but you do get all this out of the box with other manufactures.

gen 4 is my favorite, i love the simplicity and style
I know this isn't the most relevant comment, but I have 3 issues with glocks, the finger grooves (solved by gen 5 or by removing myself), the trigger safety (it just feels gross coming from single actions / rifles), and the grip angle. The only solution I found to changing the grip angle is to get a p80 or similar frame, and that is a whole new can of worms. I do like how glocks are either straight-forward or completely upgradable depending on the users taste.
Never remove the trigger safety or you get a Sig P320 with dropfire issues. The trigger safety was added at the last minute to the Glock bc an engineer used a blank to prove the handgun would fire when dropped to Mr Glock. It is simple inertia. The trigger weighs enough to overcome the spring and fire on its own if dropped at the correct angle from enough height.
Finger grooves, stippling etc suck if you are shooting a bunch of rounds on a flat range, but not if your hands happen to be bloody in a two way range. It just depends on what you want the tool for, target shooting games or real world.
@@mnee4922 Stippling is fine, the grip is just the wrong shape being too long front-back and too angled for me comfortably.
As for the safety, I know safety's should exist but I don't see a point in a trigger safety that prevents the trigger from being pulled unless it is pulled. I prefer a manual safety instead like the ones on hammer-fired handguns rather than striker (as nearly all brands copied Glocks double trigger safety). That's more of a comfort issue though, I'm not military or police or anything, I just like guns so I look for fun / cool over utility.
@@PlatinumKrown Grip size is subjective. If it doesnt fit you (or you just dont like it) then it doesnt fit. Ive always PREFERRED a slim grip and certain angles, but I can also use huge grips with angles I dont like on a SW Nframe or Anaconda, rifles, shotguns etc.
The "trigger safety" is all about being drop safe. The gun gets dropped and the receiver stops but the inertia of the weight of a trigger keeps it moving and overcomes the springs, as if you pulled it. The "trigger safety" has almost no weight and has almost no intertia. Gaston Glock didnt think he needed it until one of his head engineers showed him otherwise, as told to me by the primary armorer instructor while I was attending an advanced Glock armorers course.
Im also a Sig armorer and like the 320, a lot. Im also an old guy who started with a military 1911 (piece of absolute shit) but I like manual safeties like you do... so I REALLY like the mil 320s w manual safeties.
Regardless, dont remove or override the Glock TS unless you want a handgun which is NOT dropsafe (or you want to replace the entire trigger with one very lightwieght ala new P320s so it might be dropsafe though some still devate re 320).
I never liked the grip angle either
thanks! I needed this for a school project

thank you for the knowledge ai voice guy
I added the medium back strap and a finger groove hand guard on my gen 5 19 feels nice and chunky in the hand
You missed one thing in the Gen4 (Which was the sole reason I went for that rather than Gen3 back in the day): Gen4 is the first to feature a reversable mag release, making it usable for lefties. (The missing slide release is still a bummer in Gen4, but luckily that got fixed in Gen5.)

Personally gen 3 and 4 are my favorites, I love the finish on the gen 2 slides but to me I completely hate gen 5 besides the handgrip
the hood and varrio like them 19 4s and hondas one in the same, notOGs they just like 22lr or the 10mm them 9 go through like butter, me and four of my cousins have more wounds than 20 vets thanks to 9mm the ones that are with abuela got 22s they should really move out
Why do you hate Gen 5?
@@ticktockbam their not compatible with gen 1-4, the slide is thicker, they did a bad job on the slide release on the right side, and the mag well, also gen 3 is a better price gen 5 isn’t worth it
@@jacobseraphin685 Bad handjob??
Gen5 is way better than gen3 imo. Gen3 just feels old at this point and lacking features
This is the perfect almost monotone not too snarky sarcastic video voiceover
your voice is perfect for this topic... although i cant even tell if it's ai generated
I've been thinking about the glock19x and or Glock 17
One of the most iconic brands in the history of the firearm. Rest in peace Mr. Glock.😢😢
He was at the time but I think he’s dead now.
I have big hands so I prefer the finger grooves. I have the G17 and G20 gen 3
I got my 1st gun back in early mid 2000 after i turned 22 which was a Glock 23 40 S&W caliber which now i know now is a Gen 3 model
Glock ❤the Glock bro good job keep it up blessing
Something wrong with my Glock 17 gen 4 doing light strikes on the primers no fire than a few tries then it fired. Wonder if I did something wrong with my strip down cleaning gun is basically brand new. Any idea help let me know thanks
Why don't you take the gun to a gun store where an expert can sort it out? I wouldn't rely on youtube comments much. Please don't end up in a Darwin Award compilation video by Brandon Herrera. Sort out the gun professionally.
@@twentytwo138 - I second that !
TH-cam can be brutal sometimes 🤣
my 17's do not state which gen they are :bmsh 17and on the gun it says made in smyrna. which gen do I have? I bought them in 2020 and have never used them. bmsh360?
The Gen 3 is still being produced today. First gun I ever owned was a Gen 3 Glock 19
Yeah. No thanks to California.
@@FranciumBoron the GEN three is still great. I plan on getting a second one whenever I can afford it. Unfortunately I had to sell mine.
@Warren Rhinerson I have no doubt. Any Glock product is bound to be great.
But the only reason Gen 3 is still in production is because that is the only Glock type that _Commiefornia_ allows.
Very kind of Glock, very rude of the West Coast.

Have you made a review of the Glock 46?
Wonderful series pistol Glock
Love this. Well presented. Thorough. Funny too. I caught the sarcasm and the jokes.
you noticed the voice is AI generated or is that just me? its sounds incredibly realistic but i hear some robotic-y noises now and then
I have a few from each generation and I always wind up back to the 17 gen 1
A local gun store had a lightly used Gen 5 for sale, but it was tagged "law enforcement only". I didn't ask why (I'm a SIG fan), but just curious, is it a CA thing?
In CA you can't buy a glock that after the 3rd gen unless is used for law enforcement(If you're a officer etc., then you can buy a glock after the 3rd gen)
@@kencai6803 why ? What’s so special about gen4 or 5?

Actually the m1911 or “1911” is called that because that was when it was introduced into service. it was actually made in late 1890’s prior to modifications made for the military model.
Correct it was actually first introduced for gun fans and people that just shoot because they can and the Military saw how versatile and how much more damage the.45ACP caliper could do hell the 1911 is still prefered by tier one US Armed Forces operators to this day such as the SEALS and Delta Force
Correct, I have a Colt with patent numbers prior to 1911.
Finally, a text to speech gun channel
The Beretta with the double action hammer and double safety the open slide don't build up gun power residue in the slide or sand and dirt don't stick in the slide plus the open slide allows your barrel to cool faster instead of holding heat in the slide it self
Finaly Somone that compare Glock with an equal gun at himself
@@theepsilon-921 not really comparing nothing just talking about the Beretta just a comment not selling or marketing just talk or conversation topic for people that like firearms ect so many critics these days kinda then is funny because you get called a troll but yet wouldn't trolling go the same as if your on Facebook or any other app so basically even making videos could be trolling but no is just interesting conversation topics that some people have similar interests in. But honestly they say trolling but yet they post stuff or make videos just to see how many likes or what not very confusing world these days you know.
@@theepsilon-921 dont really understand what the hell your talking about compared a glock to who or what but no is just a conversation topic people use to do that believe it or not people would actually talk about stuff and get along but no comparison the glock and Beretta are nothing alike
Glock 17 gen 4 is ma favorite but first one I shot was gen 3 I liked it too
I have the G29 in 10mm it is my favorite gun to carry out of my collection.
This is a good collection. Did you catalogue and curate them yet?
Any recommendations for someone new to guns? Mainly looking for home defense
Either a Glock or a Canik
What coder said. Or an M&P 2.0 compact if you want to buy American. Glock is a great gun....I own a couple. But for civilians it's a bit overpriced.
Some gen5 have forward slide serrations, other gen5 don't have forward slide serrations.
I find it weird.
Thanks for the narration Stephen hawking
Someone at Glock should make the finger grooves an option for Gen5 & -6 pistols
Gaston Glock is the Ferdinand Porsche of handgun styling.
The Porsche was beautiful, clean, amazingly frugal lines. No wasted curves. The Glock is pretty damned ugly. Blocky, devoid of any attractive lines. But if form follows function, then the Glock could rightly be called the Bauhaus of guns. And Gaston Glock may rightly be called the Walter Gropius of handguns, Gropius founded the Buahaus movement.
You sound retarded

My grandpa actually had one of the first gen 1 to ever exist he got rid of it because he didn’t like the polymer frame he said it was to light and didn’t feel right in his hand because he is a 1911 person
Couldn't you take the gen 5 slide and put it on a gen 4 grip if you wanted the MOS while still having the finger grooves?
LMFAO what is that grip at 7:00 ?!?
you have images of the gen 5 when talking about the gen 2... it's already confusing enough, please don't make it worse 🤣
And images of Gen 4 when talking about Gen 1. Doh!

I sometimes call this boy the clock because he's like the clock ticking means your time is up.

7:00 just mirroring the image made me feel weird.
You are correct . This grip is improper when shooting a semi automatic gun. It will cause a nasty slide bite❗️
This grip is utilized by a revolver shooters.

8:24 "extweamly easy to use"
M1911 never gets old 😂😂😂😂😂
Personal preference, but I am a firm believer that the Gen3 Glock 17 and Gen3/4 Glock 19 were the best of all the glock gens, I still pick my Glock 19 gen 3 over anything else to this day.
I recently got a used gen 3 17. I believe it's a police trade-in...FDE finish, some holster wear, etc. I didn't think I'd be crazy about the finger grooves, but it's a helluva gun. Crazy accurate. I think it's my new favorite.
The Gen 5 also had DLC on the slide
It should be noted, police and military variants of Gen 3 and 4 were made that had no finger grooves, because the military was like hell no
You missed a ton of changes. Very important changes. Didn't mention that there are two different gen 5 designs. That's pretty important as well. Disappointed
hey guys first time gun owner here but does anyone know what gen my g48 is I hear 5 but some say it isn't?
