I bought my Gen 4 27 shortly after watching this vid. My 27 has become a real pardner. So much so that I named it "Fred". Fred and I go to the grocery store. We go get gas for the truck...we go everywhere. He's remarkably polite. Never argues with me. Always content to just do what I want to do. He's very patient too. He's got my back the entire time. What a buddy!
cmonsterz “Fred” is reliable
Just me and my girlfriend
Do you still have it? Looking at one myself.
@@Fidelis1776 Yes. As far as I’m concerned, it’s one of the very best pieces of self protection a person could have
@@cmonsterz I just bought a gen 3 Glock 27 I bought for $526 brand new can’t to pick it up tomorrow ima ride with it everywhere in my pants
Just get something that works for you. There's no magic bullet, whether 9mm, 40, 45, or anything else. I try to avoid the "caliber religion" arguments, as I call them. :-)
Sorry to bother you but did you have to aim high in the 230 yard g27 video? I'm curious about the ballistics of .40 and still trying to figure out why so many people hate it without ever shooting one. Please and thank you sir
@@frankieolivier9039 People who hate 40 cant handle the recoil.. JKJK but seriously they're problably 9 fanboys, techknowledgy has came a long way inching the 9s performance further foward , so most people's concept is higher capacity is better than higher performance . Statistically they're right though.. 40 fit me perfect over 9, 9 Is snappy in my hands.
@@frankieolivier9039 Also, people will hate on something they have no experience with and just regurgitate words from some guy at a bar or from the internet. Sad , but many people just follow to "fit in" and dont have a mind for themselves. Being your out here asking questions I doubt your one of those people! The 👍👍
@@frankieolivier9039 I swear man 9mm guys hate .40 because they never shot them or can't handle a real gun. 10mm made the .40 and 9mm guys can't handle the recoil of a .40 smh. 9mm will do the job. I, just like the bigger bullet that will penetrate further. paul harrell 9mm vs .40 is what everyone needs to watch. Changed my mind. I shoot my 27 really fast and get really good groups. Snappy? that's 10mm .40? that's easy. 3 hour on the range today with a Glock 27,23, and a 45. acp Glock 30. I can rapid fire that Glock 30 at 15 yards and tight groups easily. If you know how to shoot you know how to shoot. 9mm is for girls in my opinion. Look how hickok shoots this little 27. He knows how to shoot.

I just bought a g27 gen 4 the other day. Love it! Ive found it to be very managable, despite what many online reviewers say about the recoil. I think that has been blown way out of proportion! Im 5'10" 175 lb, medium to small sized hands, and I find this gun extremely managable. Just want to get that out there. If your on the fence and like the 40 s&w round, but are worried about the recoil, its really not bad. My opinion is that is way overblown.
I agree with you, I'm an inch shorter than you and just 5lbs lighter and I've always used .40 S&W without a problem. I've fired .45ACP and .44 Mag too and the ACP is managable but the .44 nope. 40 S&W is tame in comparison.
I'm Austrian and for some reason, I never wanted a glock - until I shot one! Now i ended up with 3 different Models and love every one of them.
Greetings from the homeland of Glock and keep up the good work Mr. hickok45.
You sold me.....I'm getting a 27 now. I was debating on an AR, but I'm in the Army, and If I am ever in a situation where I need an AR, it means I'm at war and I'm already carrying one. This would be perfect for where I live and my home. Thanks Hickok, you're just plain awesome my friend.
Know it's kinda late but thanks for your service
Hahaha Glock got their money's worth with this guy. Hahaha I just want to start shootin'! Hahaha
Excellent camera work too I may add. You really forget you are not there. At one point I started to realize someone must be holding the camera, and I wasn't there. Superb camera work.
"Uh-Oh, I see a loaded magazine over here"
Gets me every time
I can't believe how accurate you are with a subcompact let alone in .40. Blows me away.
Right
I'm always very impressed by your skills. What you can do with a compact pistol is amazing.
Subcompact
I love going back to these older videos . Always enjoy spending time at the Hickok 45 Range👍🏼🇺🇸
Damn Hickok..you make that snappy G27 look like a BB gun ! LOL
It's always been reliable for ME. I think for anybody who has a limp wristing problem, the G27 might bring that out. It IS a snappy little round, which is one reason so many people like to trash it, I think. They just find it kicks too much for them, so they find reasons why it's a horrible round. :-) I'm just about as happy with a 9mm, but the .40 is a fine round, too.
CANDYMAN GC27 GURKHA MUAY
In a thousand years, archeologists will find all the lead at this range and say, "An army must have trained here."
Just got a 27 gen4 for father's day, my first handgun :)
CONGRATS! They make a GREAT gift! I love mine.
Best carry gun out there. IMO.
kempoguy I carry a Kahr CM9 with summer clothing. Yep, the G27 loaded with 180 grain Nosler HPs 1100 fps the other 8 months. I love my Glock!
That was amazing when shooting the gong. You can actually see the bullet hitting the gong and breaking up after impact.
I’m 12 and I love going to the range with my grandpa and shooting his Glock 27
Hickok 45 I go to your vids before make any firearm purchases. Haven't gone wrong yet. Keep 'em. Best and most informative here on You Tube.
I like how you explain this weapon! I have never owned a Gun but damn you just got a subscriber, and I've made my mind up to get a Glock 27 or Glock 23 for Concealed carry. I will of course take proper gun safety classes! Thank you again Hickok45 !!
Geno Brock I would recommend going with the 27. I carried the 23 EDC for close to 5 years. when I switched to the 27 for EDC, I loved it. much more comfortable, easier to conceal with smaller/more restrictive clothing, and you can always use the bigger magazines like the video shows.
Geno Brock nice, precious. 👌🏻
Just purchased my first Glock 27 today. Too much fun indeed! I cannot wait to have it in my hands!
Just shot a Glock 27 for the first time today. Its an amazing little pistol
Ring up another sold Glock Model 27, courtesy Hickok45. I went into a local gun range/store, rented a Gen3 Model 27, and put 100 rounds through it. Immediately upon completion of my session in the range, I turned in the rental gun and bought a brand new one. I love this gun. It felt right in my hand, and the recoil was more manageable than I had anticipated. It was watching one of your videos, Hickok45, that prompted me to give the pistol a try. Job well done, sir.
Same this was my first pistol also. Love it. I actually shot some 9mm the other day and I now really want a CZ75B. But this pistol will be the one that protects me at home.. due to California's communist 10 round magazine laws. If I could hold a 15 or 20 round magazine in a 9mm then it might be a different story. The .40 has the proven ballistic performance.. can't ignore science and physics.
I have a Glock Model 19 Gen 2, which I love. I have a Glock Model 30, which I also love. But there is just something about that Glock Model 27 that I like just a bit better. It feels good in my hand, and I don't mind the "dreaded" snap of the .40 S&W in the least.
I can watch the new videos, but its something about these old videos, you all have so many great videos that till this day are still teaching us. I love my glocks, and its honestly because of you! GB
I don't recall, but I always shoot factory 180 grain ammo in .40 S&W, so if I did not say in the video, it was whatever brand I happened to have plenty of: Remington, Blazer Brass, Federal, etc.
I carry one of these as my CCW. I absolutely love this pistol and I doubt I'd be so keen to trust my life to any other pistol.
@gibson1789 , Ah, a Glock 27 brother! It's a special little gun, one that no matter how long I stray from, I always come back. It's about the ultimate in a small, reliable, powerful, shootable, accurate & convenient package!
I shot the glock 27 40 cal when I was 11 I looked like when Hickok shot that 500 magnum
Hey 9mm guys. Don't watch this. Your hand might hurt simply from viewing. Carry on.
@yousef ahmed No 40 has a little bit of recoil while a 9 has pretty much none.
🤣😂😂
@yousef ahmed i got the glock 20, with critical defense rounds lol
Went the glock 27 tho...need something to fit in my pocket
Great overview just got my G27 Gen 4 OD Green yesterday and today went to the range and put 50 speer lawman 180gr, 50 Winshester White box 180gr, 50 Blazer 180gr, 50 Remington 180gr, 50 Range Reloads 180gr, 25 Zombie Max 165gr and 25 Golden Saber 180gr without any issues on my G27 Gen4. Recoil did not felt bad and it was accurate at 7 and 10 yards. No complains this is my new EDC weapon love it! Too much fun today.
Best purchase was my Gen4 G23 and G27... I sold my lc9s and G19.
After shooting 9mm and .40 for years I am way happier with the .40.
People who complain about ammo cost should shut up
Its 10$ more a box. BIG DEAL. Get a real job or sell your gun.
You betcha; forty to fifty years of experience shooting and owning hundreds of different handguns tends to give one a little bias. :-) Most will get the job done, however, and for anybody who really doesn't shoot all that much, it especially doesn't matter. He won't be able to tell that much difference. I don't talk about it much because it sounds a bit elitist, but the more proficient a person becomes with a pistol, the more he notices the little things that make one more desirable.
I'm a 40 Glock guy too. My first Glock was a 23. I have the 27, 22, 35. They are what I like. I gave both my adult sons Glocks also. My youngest son has more than me, but he's a 9mm guy. I didn't want him shooting up all my ammo so I bought him a G43 for his 21st Bday. He now has several G 9mms. My oldest is a 40sw fan.
Me too! 27 23 22. And closing in on a 35!
What’s the best ammo for the 27 and beast place to get them because the ones I get failure to feeds a lot and it’s a brand new glock..
I own 5 Glocks, but after watching this it’s never been more clear that I need a Glock 27.
My dad bought me a Gen3 27 a year or two ago. Love it!
Angrybutcher now that’s love
Jon what are the Glock models you own?
gutadin5 hey man, my first Glock was the Gen 4 Glock 19 about 10 years ago. Then I bought a Glock 42 in .380acp that I carry in the Summer. Then I bought a Glock 21 3rd Gen in 45acp that I have next to me in my nightstand. Then I bought a Glock 22 3rd Gen in 40 cal that I keep on the top of my Fridge. And lastly I have a Glock 26 4th Gen in 9mm that I carry sometimes. I love Glocks.
@@Angrybutcher 27 is gen 4
This is the most excited I've ever seen this guy get while shooting a gun. I've watched a ton of his videos, & while he may not admit it, or put the g27 on his list of his favorite Glocks this is his favorite hangun of all time no questions asked.
And don't forget all you need is a barrel swap and some mags and you can shoot 9mm or 357 from it as well, 3 guns in one, and with how quick and easy glocks are to break down, it literally takes 2 seconds and you have another caliber ready to fire. 💪👌
THis video starts out with a most impressive run. Really amazing sound on this video, the number and pace of strikes is amazing considering the difficulty of the weapon.
I agree, my 27 is "snappy" too but I wouldn't trade it for anything. It just feels right.
Hickok45 you sir are the reason i started my gun collection and why i carry a gen 3 27 with me. Thank you good sir for all the great content you have given us.
After watching your video's I decided to go with the Glock 27 instead of the XD subcompact. Got my 27 gen4 about two weeks ago and I love it so much. I completely understand why you love this great little gun with a good punch. My new favorite Glock for sure. Love all your videos Hickok, don't ever stop making them!
Man I know this is an old video but my God you can shoot
Dude I thought the exact same thing like I could never hit targets that far out with a barrel that short!
Oh he can still shoot juuuust fine.
The Glock 27 is my favorite pistol as well.
This morning i went into my local gun shop to tell the fellow i had decided that my first pistol would be a Glock 27 and would he try to find me one. He was busy with something so i looked into the case and there was a black gun with a 27 on the side of it. He said i just put it out 15 minutes ago. i said sold Hickock45 said good gun so wrap it up. i even could break it down because of watching you. Thanx Hickok45
Man Hickok45 basically never misses a beat! Just about every video i watch of his, he never misses the first shot
You just make music every time!!!!! I love it! Have learned so much from watching you
I rarely have seen hickock45 this chipper! :D
love how the wild life isn't fazed around hickoks compound. The birds are still chirping at 13;30 after at least 50 rounds.
hickok45 thxx for all the knowledgeable info,, ive been wacthing all of your videos for a while now, when ever i need to know something about firearms i go to your channel, as a proud taurus owner of the millennium G2 9mm, mind you i have over a 1000 rds thru this nice piece with no jams, fail to feed or misfires etc, i have finally made my cross to the glock 27 gen4, i mean what can i say, your vids proved to me that this firearm is great choice :), stay safe my friend and carry on;)
Love the shirt!, John's camera work is so good when you see the bullet trajectory hitting the gong and you can see the pathway. A wonderful fun, relaxing video to watch on a spring day in Kentucky. I actually get a kick out of how a shooter can have so much fun even while missing a chicken. I sometimes get more fun figuring out what to change after a miss than I do hitting dead center some mornings. My Glock 27 handles so well it surprised me since it was my first 40.
I feel sorry for the fool that plays the knockout game with Hickock45
Zach Morris i would agree because only gun guys know who he is, but even though he's an older gentleman he stands at a staggering 6+ feet tall, you'd be a fool to try it anyway haha
love it when you are shooting the gong you can see the bullet traveling down range
Hickock45, best gun salesman EVER ! Keep up the great reviews, God Bless, and God Bless America :)
I'm really starting to become a huge fan of this weapon, might just be my first.
Can you be my grandpa? You would make the absolute best dad or grandpa. Not even kidding.
I wish Tim Allen was my dad and Hickok was my grandad.
Cletus Kasady yeah seriously lol cars and guns all day long
Cletus Kasady thats sad. what about your real dad?
Still here in 2020💪🏽
If there is ever an zombie apocalypse I would certainly want you on my team !!
I need to get to the range more.
Haaaaaa !
Nobody handles the snap of the 40 like hickock45
Honestly to not much different thn the 9mm ive shot both back to back and the g27 wasnt bad at all n jus as accurate. If fact my mom complaine the taurus 38 snub hurt her hand more than the g27.....go figure
I doubt anyone's watched as many hickok45 vids as I have, but it took me until now to notice that he's a right-handed shooter who uses his left eye. Pretty rare, and that he's as good as it gets doing it is impressive indeed. To the previous posters, he doesn't get paid doing this.
Glock and hickok45, what a great matched pair that is, and your son is as good with a camera as you are with a gun, thumbs-up to you both.
Life's amazing and so are you.
hickok45, can you do a g27 gen 4 revisited video.
Hickok45 thank you for all of your great reviews! I have watched a lot of your videos over the years and have really come to trust your opinion and judgment. Thanks again and keep the great reviews coming!!!
I just picked up a Glock 27 Gen4! Absolutely love it.
love my 27 personally I wouldn't carry anything below a .40
TCCGunner 9mm ammo is so much cheaper.
TCCGunner the .40 caliber round is dead it's worse on the frame than a .45
+Tyrone CatKiller Kang if your shooting a .40 in a glock bet it won't see 5k rounds and like I said .40 is dead
over 5k rounds in both of my Gen 4 .40s with same barrel, spring and frame.. Its a glock. Do your research and own one before you come on here tryna assume or bash.
John Daniel people love to hate on the .40
Hey Hickok have you tried the N82 (pronounced Nate squared) tactical holster?
I have a couple one for a 23 and a SR9c I have. Getting ready to get a 27 and the holster for the 23 will probably suffice for the 27 as well. The professional series is the only ones I have experience with. Very comfortable
@tormozat , They are actually stronger than G 3 springs. Probably LESS likely to fail.
I love G27. It’s like a small bulldog.
salute from stockton Cali"🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
this man is a beast
You can see the bullets when he's firing at the gong... Winning!
I am a .40 S&W guy and carry Glock 27 (gen 3) ALOT!! With the Pearce ' pinky shelf' it's perfect!! God Bless You and yours!!
hickok45 Do you have an opinion on the polymer guide rod vs. metal guide rod debate? Is it really an "upgrade" to install an aftermarket metal guide rod? Or, does a metal guide rod tend to "tighten the tolerances" of the pistol and increase the likelihood of a malfunction?
lkjh00on89 i replaced my plastic guide rod with a metal guide rod with a 2 pound heavier spring, feels like a different gun, i think i spent like 20-30 bucks, so worth it
Thanks to all who have replied to my question about the 22 and the 27. I'm inclined to agree with you guys! I think that this debate is kind of unfair to Glock as they are the highest selling pistol in the world, to my understanding that is. So it would only seem only right to hear about kaboom's from them. I'm sure it happens to Colts and Berettas also. (One time military pistols, also) Everyone wanted one of those for the same reason they wanted Glock: The Military Can't Be Wrong! They trust and have tested it's reliability! So, again, thanks for the replies! Yes, I 'm a "Glock-tard" or "Fanboy " or whatever you want to call me. However, I do appreciate a good 92fs also! I don't just tote Glock! I just like them most! Sorry about the rant! Hope the best to you all in whatever gun you choose!
Hickok should be sponsored by Glock and all of the other companies because he is convincing people indirectly to buy them like me.
one of the things I love most about glock is the bigger mags fitting. I did the same thing as you when I was law enforcement. carried my 23 on duty with the 15rd mags as the spares. carried my 27 off duty with some kind of combination of the 13rd and 9rd mags as spares. still carry the 27 for CCDW EDC
Sounds like church bells when you're shooting! Love the videos, sir
picked up brand new glock27 gen4 and glock23 gen4 last week now all i need is some land to set up my range this shooting can get a little costly glad i planted that money tree years ago love your chanel hickok45 jammed with great info thanks
Hickok! Thank you SO much. I recently started shooting in the past month. Today I purchased my Glock 27 Gen 4 :)
I couldn't be happier.
Just got my G27 Gen 4 and I love it. I shot 200 rounds at the range. Different types. They all fed nicely and perfect.
Sir...I have had the extreme pleasure of stumbling across your videos, in early September. I was interested in purchasing a Glock 26 or 27....after watching your videos, I did purchase the 27 Gen 4. I find you to be an upstanding gentleman, that is quite knowledgable regarding firearms. Your videos, were certainly the catalyst for my purchase. I am a 46 year old retired Correctional Officer (18 years) from Central New York State...Once again, thank you Sir for your guidance and inspiration...Jim
I can also see the projectiles hitting Mr gong thats beautiful
GREAT vid hickok45! You and I had shared some comments a little while ago about the Glock 27. Well, last week, I picked me up a Gen 4 27. Just shot it today. I absolutely love it! Great shooting, great feeling, great packing gun! Thanks for the advice!
Hickock45 needs a guns & gear show. It could even be a 15 minute show and id watch it. Than buy the dvd box set.
I bought a Glock 27 Gen 3 now in 2020 ...... and it loves Remington Gold Saber bonded ammo ..... hollow-points for home defense...
Hello Hickok45
Your review is the reason I just went and bought a Glock 27 gen 4 I just bought it from GT dist for $398.00 plus tax. Thanks again for the great videos. Tell Glock they just sold me one because of you.
Just bought my first Glock, a 23 gen 4. Thank you for all your input and reviews. Awesome videos!
It is so nice to see Hickok45 so happy shooting a gun! Gen 4's must be nice. This will be his 3rd purchase.
Love you're videos hickok, i plan on getting a G27 as my first handgun, already in love with it and dont have it yet
Hey Hickok 45, I'm a Armed Security Off in Chicago and this is my favorite video of the entire Glock line. And I picked one up and I love it more than my G23!!
which generation did you pick? I am interested in getting one, what about the recoil? is it acceptable?
I chose the Gen4 Glock 27. Recoil is the same as a Glock 23. Very acceptable and as accurate as the 23,with a slightly shorter barrel! I guess that's why Hichock45 jokes about Glocks being the "Master Bullet Slingers"! G27 is my absolute conceal carry and back up weapon for my Armed Security Job. Hands Down.
NOTHING, NOTHING, SHOOTS LIKE A GLOCK.
djdenn60609 thanks, It's a fact I will get one, my sig P229 .40 SRT has dissapointed me a little bit since it had some factory trigger problem (which they fixed) and only accepts fiocchi and pmc brands to run flawless, still shoots like a dream, but I want something a little more concealable and that has zero diet on ammunition. Thanks
Imagine if that would have happened while you were conceal carrying and someone had you at gun point...
Hello sir,
I own, and frequently use, a 22 Gen. 4 and love it. It is my first and only Glock. Recently, I began looking into buying a more concealable Glock. I was concerned because I keep reading reports of Gen. 4 failures on forums. I have watched your reviews of the Gen. 4 23 and 27, and all of my worries have been resolved. I will be buying a G23 and a G27 within the year thanks to your reviews. Good shooting, good commentary, good job!
I mean honestly gen 3 4 or 5 you would be fine there's always going to be issues with any generation here and there that's just the name of the game... I have a slight preference for a stock Gen 4 over a three because of the extended mag release but then again you can still get aftermarket extended mag releases for the Gen 3
Well, I'd look at all the various grips out there. There's this grip cover called Agrip, I think. I've bought a set, but I didn't like them enough to use them, but they cover the whole grip, if I recall correctly and are more like felt or something? There might be others like that, something soft. I don't care for shooting with gloves, as some do, but that might be the more obvious answer. You could surely find gloves that protected your skin well enough.
i love being able to see the round of led just as it gets to the gong
Hickok, After obtaining my carry permit I was up in the air about what to start with as a carry gun. After watching a bunch of your videos, I finally decided on the Glock 27 Gen4. It was a great choice. Your videos are awesome and I have learned a lot from them. Keep it up!
I just wanted to thank you for your videos. After watching them I went straight out and bought my first Glock a G27. Loved it so much a bought a G20 a month later. Because of your reviews I just bought 2 Ruger LCPs. Any manufacturer that sends you demo guns is investing wisely!
@bobaroosa, I guess they are the same as the Gen 3. The grooves are in the right place for me, so I never notice them.
hickok I love your videos! Cant stop watching them. Keep up the great work! This video inspired me to finally go out and get a glock. Ordered it today, cant wait to pick it up
I just purchased my Glock 27 Gen 4 today and I will pick it up in 10 days. My family of guns now consist of Sig P220, Beretta PX4 Storm, and Glock 27 Gen 4. It will be nice to go out to the shooting range and shoot it. Can't wait......
Hickok has a good sense of humor.
Anyone else notice hickok always shoots the round swings from right to left and hardly ever left to right? Not that it matters, just funny haha.
And sweet t-shirt.
crazy watching Hickok 12 years ago.
Just bought my gen 5 Glock 27 I love it ! I love your videos there so impressive and very important,
Just bought my Gen 4 Glock 27 based on your reviews thanks! It feels great in the hand and I cant wait to shoot it! It's my first Glock. I finally broke down and bought it to see what all the hype has been about for years. I was always one of those guys that doesnt like to buy what everyone else has. But in some cases there are reasons why everyone has them :) Thanks Hickok! Your vids are so informative and have helped me on my last three purchases.
Beautiful gun. I’m going to shoot one this weekend. Can’t wait!
