Glock is the Toyota of handguns. Nothing fancy, dependable, reliable, runs forever, and reasonably priced.
There are many legitimate reasons why glock will continue to be successful but ultimately, most of it has to do with the fact that they have never really competed in the market. “It’s there if you want it, and if not then move on to other product” and I think that’s what ultimately makes Glock successful in the marketplace. People either love that about them, or resent it, but either way is Relevant and beneficial, because Glock is always talked about. And that’s just the marketing part… that doesn’t include real world experience regarding the reliability aspect.
Beat me to it. Exactly.
For me Glocks are strange gun, but it works and works well.
Well said.
You want a simple semiauto handgun that you know u can trust your life to....
But a Glock.....
They just run and run and run....
Dirty......They just Work....
Ugly....Yes.....
Work everytime.....Hell Yes...
Glocks are boringly reliable and reasonably priced. I can’t think of a better combination for a self defense pistol.

@@KrisGerhardt Terrible take.
Which doesn't stand out anymore when you can get an equally reliable gun for the same price with better ergos and a far better trigger, from basically any other company at this point. Not to mention Micro 9 pistols that are the peak of innovation right now that Glock still hasn't caught up to. Glocks are not dead from a sales POV, they are just becoming irrelevant from an innovative POV.
As long as Glock remains a reliable option it will never be irrelevant.
Some like me, can't shoot Glocks accurately. But PPQ, HKs, Caniks, SIGs, HiPower, 1911s are far easier and better to shoot. Glock brick like grip and angle doest work for everyone. There are better choices out there.

I have a Glock 17 gen 2; since 1991. Never had a problem and I have fired thousands of rounds.
These videos have a laid back feeling to them, like sitting in the backyard with your grandpa and listening to him talk about whatever
I stopped counting Glocks I bought years ago and I'm 54 and always carry the 26 or 19.
51 here... Been buying Glocks since 1999. In fact, around 30 of the 70ish pistols I own, are Glocks...
Everytime I think I've found a new "favorite" brand, I always seem to come back to a Glock after the new wears off.
in the late 80's I remember the Glock Perfection ads and the Uzi getting dragged through the mud and run over by a truck, ah.....The '80's
@@joeytomato why 70 pistols? I love pistols and revolvers? But 70? I hope you never complain about prices of gas or mechanics or carpenters.
@@jessebailey5962 Because that's how many I have... And what the hell does that have to do with the price of anything, or me complaining about it?
@@joeytomato because it would be childish to buy 70 pistols to sit in your locker box and go to the range. Then complain about prices of anything else.
Why would the glock be dead? Because the military went with SIG? Yeah i wouldn't worry too much about that. Glocks are some of the best handguns out there.
I never disparage anyone’s choice of firearms and I don’t understand why so many people do. You don’t know their personal situation or physical limitations. Be supportive. We have enough problems with the 2A haters.
Really if a gun works for you and is reliable, that’s good enough. I don’t understand rabid fanboys either.
People who choose to buy a SCCY when they are able to buy anything else, on the other hand...

Well said. Thank you.
Still rocking my Gen2 , 19 ❤
I feel like glocks will never die least not in my lifetime
Well how old are you?
@@mauricemaurice123 I'm just 21 why
First semi-auto centerfire pistol I bought was a G17 (Gen 1) in 1988. It has since been joined by a G26, G21 and G34. All four have been super reliable and accurate. They have been used for bowling pin shoots, PPC, IDPA, stake shoots, home defense, training classes and concealed carry. I just don't feel a need to replace my handguns with another brand.
Gen X here. The PPQ took me away from all full sized glocks. But I still carry the glock. It use to be the 26 and now the 43x. What Glock did with the 43x is just a beautiful thing. Sigs don't have that familiarity with me. Shields are cool but again, just grew up with Glock. The Hellcat...I can't take the hellcat seriously simply because of the name. The name is ripped off from the dodge charger. Not to mention the technology of the dodge charger was ripped off from The Terminator SVT Cobra Mustang which no one seems to remember. We old people just remember the companies and brand names that revolutionized the tech and designs that changed the world and stubbornly stick with what we know.
I am a simple man. My first handgun was a Glock and I liked it and it has never let me down so I bought more of them, many more.
My Glock 43X is my favorite EDC!
Got one. Totally agree👍🏻
@@timothysmith6884 💯
I've got nicer range guns than my 43x, but I can shoot my 43x every bit as good as those guns
My 43x has taken over the EDC roll for me. Still love the 19 and the 26, but just can’t beat the slimmer 43x!
After I was robbed by knifepoint in 1989,five days later I bought my first handgun.It was a Glock 17.I really wanted a Sign P226 but,it was a lot more money.Ive owned 6 different Glocks over the last35 yrs.Still love my Glocks
True story
In the early 2000’s I bought my first handgun. The guy at the counter convinced me to try a Springfield XD in 40. It jammed here and there and was alright otherwise. My friend brought his Glock 19 to the range one day-it felt better in my hand. It felt like it was better quality. I shot it better instantly.
I was instantly hooked, and was also amused at the fact that I could break it down with a punch and add any part that wore out all by myself… Even back then they were a myriad of sites where you could go and get any replacement part you needed for your Glock.
It was so simple and yet learning to shoot on it and master the trigger was such a complex joy. It wasn’t a gun, it wasn’t a handgun… It was a GLOCK. For me there really only has ever been Glocks, a few 1911s, and revolvers. Yes there might be another semi auto pistol that I like to shoot… But to own?… Why would I?
It jammed here and there" 😂😂 yeah right I've got six different xdms xds and thousands of rounds and none of them have ever jammed. I do have receive lots of videos on here of Glocks blowing up in people's hands
My Glock 19X is always relevant. I never go out without my Glock 19X and my Spartan Blade.
19X is awesome. I still don’t get how the army went with Sig😢
@@ak47man58 The army went with M16 that jams easily and needs a forward assist. I'd bet a significant percentage of deaths in the Vietnam war were related to the M16 malfunctioning at the wrong time.
There's a reason why all the other Brands copied off of the Glocks 😊
Glocks are still VERY relevant and great... they are the "tools" of the gun world. Nothing fancy nothing beautiful, they just go bang and have a very business-like and utilitarian work mood to them. They are the Toyotas of the gun world. Also it does make me feel old thinking that young people just now getting into firearms who were born post 2000 might see Glock as "the old guard." Glocks have become the "old dog" for Gen-Xers and are how 1911s were to the Greatest Generation.
Glock 23 Gen 4, Glock 17 Gen 4, Glock 43X...all alive and still shootin'! Thanks for your videos Hickok!
Glocks are great- they don’t deviate from accuracy, simplicity, and certainly the designs we all know. The truth in my opinion is that gun ownership is subjective, from hand size, to recoil stability to larger or subcompact. I just purchased my first pistol after waiting 14 months to get my NYC CCW permit . I went into the gun shop to buy a glock 26. And despite wanting this gun for years, I walked out with a more expensive shadow systems cr920 war poet.( this gun is a glock 43 clone) This gun felt so much better to me than the 26 and the 365. Again, I firmly believe that not every gun is made equally for every man. If you know, then you know.
Purely subjective.
I personally own a variety of handguns but Glocks are absolutely my favorites. The most recent one I purchased is a well worn G21, Gen 2 LEO trade in with round count probably in the tens of thousands. You can look at it and see that it was used and carried a lot.
It still functions 100%, and is extremely accurate.
Couldn't agree more brother, they're still here and shoot as good as they did back "in the day." Actually better.. Long live the G19, I trust that one with my life. G19.5MOS with a can, light, and optic is my home defense pistol. There are lots of great "plastic fantastic" pistols these days, but Glock is still in the game. God bless you and yours, thanks for all the great content over the years!
Thanks for sharing the perspective. I'm kinda likin' this new format by the way. I of course still enjoy the other longer format ones. IMHO we can't have "too much" Hickok45. After some 50 years of buying and shooting other handguns I felt something was lacking, so a couple years ago I got my first Glock, the 19. It is a gem and lives up to its positive reputation. I do believe that like having a .22 rifle and handgun, everyone NEEDS at least one Glock.
👍🏻Glock 17 Gen 3
If you ever have to defend yourself with your Glock, the perp will be reminded of how relevant it still is.👍
My first firearm purchase was a Glock 17! Very comfortable to handle out the box.
I wish I had a range like yours. So peaceful!
Glock was my second. I bought a terrible Ruger P-85 first and wished I had bought the G-19 first instead of second.
My Glock 17 Gen2 that's 31 years old still goes bang with every press of the trigger and with all its original parts too.
Glock 17 gen 3 is the best affordable handgun ever made
Last Block I bought was the 19X. Thanks for the share!!
I like PSA dagger and appreciate where the engineering came from.
Great chat" thank you for sharing.
Love my 43.
Thank You for being here for all us Gun Luvers. I watch all your videos more than once. Have a Great Day. Steve from Reno, NV
G19 is the number 1 seller for several months in a row. They just work.
Where are you getting those stats?
@@mauricemaurice123 Guns and Ammo magazine monthly report of gun sales in the US.
Who told you they just work? They have a trashy track record from the 90’ and 2000’s and had been sued by tons of agencies for jamming or shooting themselves.
Anyway never mind all that, any reason you felt the need to say that they “just work?”
Do you believe the various other guns don’t?
@@rudrashakti108 I’m no Glock fanboy, I have some but I have others I like much better, but there’s z reason that many police agencies and militaries around the world as well as many American police departments, federal agencies, and certain specialized military units choose Glock. And this is no longer the 90’s and 2000’s so they may look similar but they are not the same firearm from back then. And yes a lot of other guns don’t work as well as Glock or all those agencies would have selected otherwise.
@@rudrashakti108 I shoot quite often. I've never had any issue with any of my glocks.
My 3 Glocks said “NO”.
Still carry my Glock 20 in the woods and when I'm fly fishing. Easy care and clean . 😂
I’ve only been into shooting seriously for three years.
My kids got together and got me a Glock 19.
It is the quintessential first handgun.
It’s basic. Easy to shoot. Easy to maintain. Extensive aftermarket support.
Yes, the stock trigger is like a DA revolver trigger.
But learn to manage a DA revolver, everything else is easy.
Are there better handguns? Yes the “perfect” Glock is probably the CZ P10. It’s essentially a Glock with a lighter, smoother trigger.
But at the end of the day. A Glock is a lot like a Swiss Army knife. Not necessarily the absolute best tool for the job…but it will indeed do the job.
kinda laughing as I'm saving for a CZ Shadow 2 Compact and haven't even heard of their P10
solution for glock triggers is simple, install a timney alpha, test it and confirm 0 light strikes, throw the old trigger in a trash bin or a parts pile
@@thomaswolf6507
Now that I’ve got a couple thousand rounds thru the G19, it feels like the trigger has smoothed up and lightened a bit.
Or I’m just used to it. 😂
Watching you sit there up in the "back" of what I think is the main range, I got to thinking how cool it'd be if you gave a kind of tour walking and talking about how you chose some of these targets and how they came into your life. Love the new channel idea. I'm a religious Sunday video watcher and really enjoy you pontificating on various subjects. Oh yeah, and the guns are cool too.
You have sold more Glocks than most people by showing how well they work on your channel!!
After shooting IPSC Production Optics Division using M&Ps, P320 Legions and Shadow 2s, I'm now using a Glock 19 with a Holosun SCS. The Glock absolutely kicks ass! So, yes.
Thoughts on running a shadow compact 2 vs my trusty glock 17 gen 5, customized?
@@thomaswolf6507 Depends on how well it fits your hands. Totally individual IMHO.
Exercised a friend's Glock at our local range . . . and still delighted with my Walther . . . with no plans to change. It's all about the superior Walther grip.
I have had almost all of my training on various Glocks. For those I now train I choose Glocks. Though I own many different brands of handguns, picking up a Glock, as you stated, just feels like coming home. I don't foresee that changing for myself or many, many others.
I have 4 carry pistols. 3 Sigs and a G19. The P365 and P238 are great for pocket carrying in low risk rural Michigan. The P365XL was going to replace the 19 but I still shoot the Glock better than any of the other pistols I own. I would love to hate my 19 but it has never given me a reason to do so. It’s my best option for church security work.
I have a 1911 govt in my truck everyday, but I keep a Glock 19 or 17 in my waistband. Glock is just an easy carry low maintenance pistol that go’s bang every time I pull the trigger.
Just got the 19X MOS. They actually have made several improvements since my Gen 3s.
I just bought a G20. Awesome as usual. I think they missed the boat with the 365/Hellcat style carry pistols, at least so far, but anything else, they still lead the pack!
A Glock is to firearms what a hammer is to tool. They just work. Love my Glock 17.
Yes, love Glock. I have had many handguns since 1993 including Sigs, Ruger, Taurus S&W semi-autos but Glock are the best for me. Regarding revolvers, S&W revolvers are my favorite by far (I have owned Colt, Ruger and Taurus revolvers over the years). Having had many various handguns and sold many back to the dealer, I finally have settled on Glock & S&W for Semi-auto & revolvers.
this is like sitting with hickok on the porch talking about whatever lol love it
They are not dead but they sure have ALOT of competition now, compared to 10-15 years ago. They are not MY favorite gun to carry for self defense(except 43x/48), but the certainly work for many others.
Hickok is the best
Only pistols I got
I love Glocks, they are my alltime favorite pistol. Very reliable and so many add ons, they just look and feel robust and cool to me.
Glock 26 and 19 are still in my rotation after 26 years of carrying. Accompanied by a S&W 642 or lcp max in the pocket.
I bought a Glock a few months ago and it’s a fine gun.
I have more than a few handguns, Glock is my favorite 5:50
The Glock will cycle any ammunition you run. There's only a handful of handguns that will. I started with Glock but I'd recommend M&P for new shooters. I feel great with Glock and train with them. Hickok and I will always love the Glock23
I appreciate my Glock. Rock Solid.
We are in the golden age of quality guns. Sigs smith shadow systems etc are all quality guns. My duty gun is a Glock 17…..now if they just come out with a carbine.
Good afternoon from the Great State of Texas. I have 3 Glocks. I Like all of my Glocks.
During my competitive years, the Glocks I purchased and competed with performed as good or better than my most expensive custom guns. The difference was my custom stuff was 3,000 to 5,000 and Glock was under $400 and I rarely did anything to them. Competed with the Glocks right out of the box. The difference in cost paved the way for lots of practice. If someone doesn't like them, there are other choices which might fit them better.
I’ve never heard anybody talk about Glock being dead or anything like that. 🤷♂️
I've only really ever had four issues with Glocks over the years:
1. The absolutely ATROCIOUS plastic sights they continue to insist to install on 99% of models, meaning you've got to factor in the cost of some proper sights when you buy one
2. The terrible trigger. I am still hard pressed to think of any other striker fire gun in the Glock's price range that manages to have such a gross trigger.
3. the (lack of) ergonomics. I've long heard people refer to the HK USP as a "2x4" in the hand, but even they manage to feel well sculpted compared to a glock, especially with that terrible grip angle.
4. the continual insistence on polymer overmolded magazines. All it actually accomplishes is making the grip fatter than is actually required compared to the competition.
Ultimately, all of these issues can easily be solved by Glock, but they simply choose not to, and that's why I can't stand them.
I give credit to Glock for being reliable and simple. But it's hard to support a company that ignores it's consumer base. Crap trigger aside, how many decades have gone by where the consumer asked for one simple and easy thing to change...give better sights out of the factory. Crickets from Glock. When you can buy a CZ P10C or P10S sub $400 and have excellent sights and an amazing factory trigger right out of the box, that's what I'll go with. It's not a fly by night company, CZ makes some of the best and most reliable firearms in the world, so for that pricepoint...give me a CZ all day over a glock
The fact that every time a new polymer pistol gets released we get a rash of "this is a glock killer" videos tells me that glock is still relevant.
Hands down…They hard to Beat
I like the new channel, so I just subscribed. Glocks will (probably) continue to be my first choice. Platform familiarity, aftermarket parts availability, reliability are all important to me. After shooting them for almost 40 years, it's safe to say that I am a Glock supporter 100%.
I guess I’m lucky my 20,21,29,30,36 all feel great in the hand.
My wife’s 42 is tiny & my 43 was bought only due to its size. Not a big 9 mm fan. Sorry.
I can make it work but the larger models fit my hand like a glove. Before Glock my Combat Commander .45 ACP was my go to, S&W 36 backup. Ruger LCR .357 now.
They simply run when you need them to. I'm a minimalist at heart too so any flashy new pistol brands aren't for me.
Glock is like Pellegrino carbonated water. Imported, satisfying and hits the right spot. ; )
Just bought one
Here in Brazil one of the most popular handguns are the glocks(usually the glock 25 because of the restriction of the 9mm) and I think they be everywhere for many more years.
Brazilian PO here... This is true.
To each his own. My all time favorite is the 1911A1. Yep, .45 ACP. My house gun is a Ruger American full size .45, my every day carry is the Ruger LCP .380. However, I own a Glock 23 as well. I like the fact you can have one pistol that can fire 3 different types of ammunition, simply by changing the barrel! That’s truly innovation at its finest! I tinker with guns, simple things like sight replacements, part changes and trigger jobs and I have worked on one particular brand more than any other. No, I’m not going to say which one, but it’s the one that the take down levers has a tendency to snap off and the back strap safety is truly a hit or miss proposition! Love your content! Happy Fourth of July!
Glock will never die !!!!!!!!! ❤
Hello I've been watching your shooting channel for years now and I've been really enjoying your videos!
What's your thoughts on Smith and Wesson model 629 44 magnum? Is it a good gun?
Also a Smith model 610 10mm?
Are these good bear protection options?
I love my Glock 17 gen 4.
At one time, my employer issued full sized S&W semi-auto pistols and off-duty I carried smaller single-stack version of the same gun. I had my choice of maybe three holsters for each. If you didn't like the feel of the trigger, you might someone to smooth or polish the stock parts and that was it.
Eventually they switched to Glock. Wow! Glock makes several versions of the trigger and you can mix and match parts to have a ridiculously heavy trigger or a very light trigger.There are a hundred people making holsters and also aftermarket trigger parts and assemblies, not to mention barrels, slides, magazines, etc.
Now I loved the S&Ws. They fit my hand well, I shot them well, and I liked the grip angle. When I was forced to a Glock, I hated it, especially the grip angle. BUT, after a few years and being forced to fire a couple thousand rounds through it, I've come around. If not a Glock fan boy, at least I'm a Glock defender.
Yes
I'm a Glock fan. Don't care what anybody else is into.
Glock is still KING!! Always will be.
My first introduction to a handgun was a 38 Smith and Wesson. I have a Glock 19, but I will always be a revolver fan. Shoot what you like and shoot it well. Have fun!
I own 3 Glock pistols. I am not a Glock fanboy. I actually have a love hate relationship with Glock. I have an issue with paying 600 for a pistol with cheap plastic sights installed on it!!! I recently purchased a used S&W M&P Shield 9mm 2.0 & I have to say I like it better than all of my Glock pistols!!! Great video!!
I still own the original Glock 17 that I bought in the early 80’s when it first hit the market and still shoot it and carry it. I’ve added about 40-50 more Glocks in one of my safes over the years. I love all my 1911’s to in my other safe.
Old reliables Glocks revolvers and pump shotguns
And punctuation.
@@KrisGerhardt English was my most hated class
Won't matter of I am the only one left with a Glock, with my finger on the trigger, it will be relevant. Great vid Hick
Who started the notion that Glock is dead?? For real? No way...
Other companies (like Sig) are running past them. Glock had great guns, but they are getting passed by in innovation and making product that has popular features.
Where I live Glock isn’t dead but I’m seeing more people trading their Glocks in for Caniks. I’ve never owned a Canik but I know my CZ performs much better than my Glock.
@@Goodfella066 They lost one contract with the military. The military ALWAYS goes for the low-bid, not the smart-bid.

Thanks for sharing your experience and stories on things. I’ve always wanted to sit down and have a conversation with you, however, I have a question I’d like to hear you talk about. People have different perspectives on what makes a man successful. I’ve been through some seasons in life, relationships, kids, and all of the responsibilities that comes with all of that. In your life what do you feel has been the most important thing for longevity in all of those aspects? What do you think makes a man successful?
Do you have any plans on taking about HK pistols? Not a lot of gun tubers talk about them. Thanks in advance.
Glock is like that cool guy in high school back in the 80s that Walther and S&W and Springfield and all the others wanted to be like. But now Walther, S&W, Springfield, etc. have all grown up and improved themselves and are more mature and refined and have moved away and started careers and families and are doing good. But Glock is still hanging out in the old neighborhood wearing his Def Leopard concert t-shirt and acid-washed jeans and Reebok high tops. Which was cool back in the day but everyone else has moved on in the world and doing much better. And it's really kind of sad. I'm a Walther guy now after being a Glock guy since the early 90s. I hope my old friend Glock can get his act together soon.
I love my Glocks!!!!
Shooting revolvers and metal auto pistols for a long time it took me awhile to adjust to polymer striker fired pistols now i own different brands these pistols and i do own some Glocks and i do appreciate that they are light weight and simple to maintain and i just prefer the Gen 3 model for even more simplicity.
Never been a glock fan boy.
That being said, I cannot deny their relevance.
Price point and reliability will keep them that way.

I have 3..G21,G34,G43x .......next buy is G17L ,ultimate fanboy here 😎😎
I have a G17, G23, and G43x. All great guns and all dependable.
Hi Hichok, I was wondering if you can make a video and teach us how the idea of making gun came in the first place, just like Newton when he discovered Gravity he was was setting under an Apeal tree, to be more specific, how the idea of firing a gun came out in the first time?
I remember years ago, I had a Glock 17, Sig p228, and an HK p2000. All were great handguns. BUT I noticed I easily shot the Glock better than the other two. I guess everyone is different. I still marvel at my Glock 26 gen 3 and have the xgrip for both the 17 & 19 mags for higher capacity. But I enjoy carrying with the flush, 10 round mag.
Glocks are great guns. Are there guns with more bells and whistles? Sure, but this weapon is super reliable and have the greatest aftermarket accessories. While I haven’t bought one yet, I’m definitely getting at least 2 of them. Thank you, sir!
The G20 is my go to woods gun, P365 is my EDC. Anything is better than a sharp stick, pick whatever you can afford and hit the target with
Mr. Hickok, I am a 74 yo woman who took up the shooting sports decades ago. Upon recommendations when I initially began shooting I of course fell for the hype about Glocks so I purchased one. BIG MISTAKE. About 7 weeks post purchase and the Glock was gone. Terrible grip angle, my front sight fell off, the trigger was the absolute worst trigger I have ever felt and the magazine kept falling out. Now I am a total convert to Sig Sauer. I actually own 40 of them. Last year Glock fell to 11th place in sales, 1st in guns found at homicide scenes, 1st in shooting yourself or somebody else. The list goes on but I suspect from watching other TH-cam gun guys that what I wrote will really upset the Glock lovers but at my age I don't care. OH, Sig out sold Glock in pistol sales by over 250,000 units. I imagine that my opinion will upset some of these guys that love Glock's but what I wrote is straight out of the horses mouth. Enjoy your day, sir.
Youre Full of 💩 about 90% of this comment js
You have a right to voice your opinion; but since I do not know you personally, show me the data! Been carrying for the past ~35 years! Colt Government .45 ACP, then S&W various semi-autos, then Glock 23, now EDC is Glock 43 with extra factory mags. I like the 43X except I carry OWB crossdraw. “Prints!” Trigger is great on both my Glocks (except for the kinda uncomfortable center trigger safety). Owned a Sig P229 and it would choke on Remington Golden Sabre .40 165 gr HPs. Dumped that one, for other reasons besides the FTF issue. My Glocks work and their customer service reps are tops, not so much at Sig or S&W.
@@410Governor First and foremost from my personal experience you are delusional. Glock has never and will never make a quality handgun or any gun. Glock triggers are some of the worst triggers I have ever fired. The overall quality of Glock is less than terrible and I do not give one wit what your opinion of Sig anything is as Sig is THE BEST OUT OF THE BOX PRODUCTION GUNS MADE...,PERIOD. The P-229 choked? Only on your wifes cooking. Just yesterday I, and 2 friends took 5 guns to the range...3 Sigs, all P-229's, .40, .357 Sig, and .10mm...not one glitch... one of the guys brought his junk, Glock. The Glock failed about every 3-5 rounds...JUNK. As far as Sig CS there is none better. So you have all of TOW GLOCKS? Well YaaHoo for you. I have over 80 pistols and not one is a plastic Glock. Glock is the NUMBER 1 murder pistol in the US...look it up on your own time. Now as my dear departed 30 year US Marine would say, "if the SEAL's carry Glock all the more reason to NOT carry a Glock". Has my female attitude been too direct for you? GLOCKS SUCK!! And so do the people that carry them. Kinda' like voting for Captain Comatose. Enjoy your 4th.
