If'n it is, and I wouldn't be surprised if it is, I hope its not just another AR pattern carbine. I'd rather see something completely new Glock-like ie simple, minimum # parts, rugged.

[MSparks909]

December 10th at 10AM? 10mm Gen 5 anyone?

[WobblyPossum]

My guess is a commercial release of the G47 but I’d be excited for a US release of the G46. I know that people have been joking about a Glock Carbine for years but if they could keep things reliable and inexpensive, they’d probably sell every one they made.

Do you even AK, bro?

Or maybe, the "big" thing is misdirection, and we finally get the rimfire understudy pistol.


Wait, waitwaitaminnute... what about the G42x ten-shot .380? #hosemaster (https://pistol-forum.com/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=hosemaster)

ooooh a line of rimfires would be neat.

But, yeah, AK is a good analogy for the concept but something light, svelte and with great ergos. (I'm not an AK fan ;) )

[GJM]

I am less interested in what the new Glock is than how many days it takes for one of their dealers to accidentally spill the beans. I can’t remember one of their surprises actually being a surprise by the time “the date” rolled around.

Sell a 19/17 sized 22 trainer please

I'd be happy with a G46. I'd find it interesting if they announced they acquired the rights to the Gadget. I suspect it will be a new color. Arctic White, anyone?

[okie john]

Perfection finally?

There may be something interesting in the works, but brands do shit like this to harvest email addresses all the time. Didn't Glock do something like this with the Glock ID Community?

A little birdie told me about two things back in 2017...a slim G19-ish sized model (G48 came about)....and a dedicated .22LR model. I'm not saying that there is a .22LR model coming, but it was being tossed around.

[Mjolnir]

I’d be elated if it’s a GEN 5 Model 20!!! [emoji41][emoji2957][emoji3590][emoji1431]

[BehindBlueI's]

Is that the 17 slide on a 19 frame and optics ready one? Or am I thinking of something else?

[Mr. Goodtimes]

I'd really like to see a Gen 5 34 with no MOS.

[WobblyPossum]

Is that the 17 slide on a 19 frame and optics ready one? Or am I thinking of something else?

Close. Optics ready 17 length slide on the G45 frame. Same size package as a G17 but would also work with a G19 slide.

[psalms144.1]

Ah, finally, a GLOCK Legion! If it comes with a challenge coin and a members only web page, I'm in there like swimwear...

My vote is PCC. Agreed something simple, rugged, accurate and GLOCK would be a winner in my book (as opposed to just another polymer AR15 platform.

Reliable .22LR trainers would be a winner too, found out the hard way yesterday that my kids who love shooting my 15-22 just aren't ready to handle either the size/weight of the G19, or the big step up in recoil from a shoulder-fired .22 to a 9mm handgun.

[BehindBlueI's]

Close. Optics ready 17 length slide on the G45 frame. Same size package as a G17 but would also work with a G19 slide.

What's the difference between the 17 and 45 frame? Just the ability to work with the 19 slide as well?

[WobblyPossum]

The 45 frame has a 19 length dust cover instead of the 17 length one. I’m assuming the locking block is also different but that’s just a guess.

[Old Man Winter]

Glock probably noticed the 40s&w comeback thread broke 15 pages and decided it's time to release the Gen5 pistols in 40s&w.

Is the surprise that they have stolen a page from Springfield Armory’s hype-building playbook?

Maybe it will be a model with a grip that can be tailored to fit your hand?

I’ll bet it’s a steel framed G34 to compete with Walther’s Q5SF.

[Duelist]

If it’s a .22LR, it’s probably going to cost me money.

[Whirlwind06]

Glock 19/17 with a thumb safety ;)
Or flat faced triggers!

[vandal]

Flat faced trigger would be great. But if it’s something big... carbine.

[Stumpnav]

Glock doesn't really come out with anything earth shattering. It's always just an evolution of current offerings.
If it is really going to be 'big', it's going to be something like a carbine...even a 22 version would be a jump for Glock.

[BigT]

Sure. .

So can I ;)

[hiro]

I'm hoping it's an MOS 48 or 43X so I can stop thinking about jumping ship to Sig.

Can't really see that as big but then, I don't work in marketing.

[FreedomFries]

Maybe a Glock shotgun that changes barrels between 12 and 10 gauge? With a birdshead grip that has the Glock Gen 4/5 RTF so it's a shotgun that's not legally a shotgun?

[echo5charlie]

It'd be super cool if Glock were to Gen 5 the .45 Auto and 10mm lines to change up the 29 and 30 to be more of a compact than the current sub-compact* models they are. A 20X would be pretty rad, too.

OMG I would love to try a Glock version of the DWX fusion. There are ways to create a single action like trigger pull and they know how.

[RevolverRob]

Just 'cause I'm a party-pooping D-Bag. I took a little stroll through the US Trademark Database. Glock has only registered one trademark in 2019 and it's for...

Horological Instruments

Yep...a Glock Watch. I bet we're all sitting here on Glock watch watching for a watch...

[RevolverRob]

OMG I would love to try a Glock version of the DWX fusion. There are ways to create a single action like trigger pull and they know how.

I mean, on a list of things that would convince me to buy a Glock. This is pretty damn high. A DWX-type gun that uses G19 magazines, G19 sights, but has a thumb safety and a 1911-style trigger? If they did an internal hammer ala the "1911 Pocket Model" custom things that Cylinder and Slide did a few years ago, it would be basically perfect (because although I like having an external hammer, it would have a positive locking thumb safety and that would work for me, for CC).

[TGS]

Having passing familiarity with 1911s, isn't this basically a Wilson EDC X9? Or STI Staccato?

[hiro]

Alternatively, if it's not an MOS 48, I'd be happy with them declaring they will never, ever make anything like a 1911.

And if it's a watch, oh my, the irony, Rolex watch out...

[RevolverRob]

Having passing familiarity with 1911s, isn't this basically a Wilson EDC X9? Or STI Staccato?

Getting pretty close - there is also the DWX.

The X9 is basically just a 1911, minus grip safety, using a P99/PPQ magazine. It even has a bolt on front sight ala Glock (but it isn't Glock dimensioned) and Novak 1911 rear dovetail.

The Staccato is basically just a wide 1911 - with grip safety, using a proprietary magazine, and Novak 1911 dovetails for the sights.

The DWX is basically a CZ frame, 1911 trigger, 1911-esque thumb safety, using either the P10 magazines (full-size) or CZ75 compact magazines (carry/compact model), but using weirdo sights - CZ dovetail rear, Novak 1911 dovetail front (<-this is the most bizarre part to me).

So, really we just need a Glock 19 with thumb safety, 1911 trigger, and, of courses, uses all the Glock magazines and sights. But since that gun doesn't exist, I carry an STI about 70% of the time. :eek: ;)

[Clusterfrack]

Glock already has too many models and calibers. I hope they do not go down the path of niche guns that lack parts compatibility. Instead, I hope Glock keeps doing what they do well: making a simple, reliable, durable, standardized handgun. Is there room for improvement beyond the Gen5? Yes, but not at the cost of parts compatibility.

IMO, a .22 Glock, some weird hybrid, or a thumb safety would be steps in the wrong direction. Glocks need to keep being Glocks. We already have too many other options.

[Obelisk]

Dear Glock...

Here’s what I want:

1. Glock carbine
2. Glock .44 mag in ultra mega super long slide wiff da porting *you know you’d buy it!
3. Glock 7.62x25
4. Glock 5.7

[Bucky]

Wasn’t GLOCK that had a big announcement and it turned out to be some online gimmick?

[Clusterfrack]

How about this: Glock announces an entirely new handgun design that they have been testing in secret for 5 years. Fewer parts, better in every way than anything currently available. Modular, standardized, can be detail stripped by an idiot in 5 minutes. 4 different sizes. Only comes in 9mm.

[SD]

I'm so happy to see the 13-3 marked SPF, weaker every time i shopped the classifieds section. Still have a little $$$ in pocket if it survives BF/CM.
Wake me up if I need to sell something else to buy it. :)

In general I agree. Glock doesn't need some weird hybrid 1911-thing. I'm still confused why Dan Wesson is doing it, to be honest. But it is interesting. But a thumb safety would be awesome. I recently reacquired a 1.0 M&P9 with a thumb safety and realized how much I would really like it...if it weren't a 1.0 M&P9...

Personally, I think Glock should start cleaning up their line. I think it should be:

9mm: 17, 19, 19x, 26, 43, 48
.40: 22, 23, 27
.45: 21, 30
.380: 42

ALL Gen5 guns, ALL with MOS, ALL with night sights, dump the long-slides, dump the Gen3s, the Gen4s, etc. That would eliminate what about 50 or 60 SKUs? Glock would be the only MFG that had optics mounting and night sights standard across its range.

[tlong17]

A new line of top end shovels, chambered in 9mm. And an upgraded WML to replace their current offering, it will allow you to tell the time.

[vcdgrips]

Be still my beating heart.

desire- Glock carbine
likely- more MOS guns in otherwise existing calibers and configurations
unlikely- slim framed .45 ACP/(ed. to add-SINGLE STACK/Full sized)

9mm ammo is cheap such that I do not see the market for a Glock .22 relative to what I mentioned above

[MrInox]

The glock 46 comming to the American market is the only thing that glock could do to catch my interest.

[Dave T]

At the risk of offending all you 9mm fan boys, I wish Glock would finish what they started with the 45 ACPs. They proved with the G41, the G30S, and the G36 that the heavy slide (intended for the 10mm originally) and barrel are not necessary for the low pressure 45 ACP cartridge. They need to bring out a slim slide and barrel on the G21, making it into the G21S. I'd buy the first one I find.

Yes, I know the 9mm does everything the 45 can do and probably better, but I carried a 45 ACP of one kind or another all through my LEO career and after retiring until today. I'm comfortable with the cartridge so leave me alone...and stay off my lawn! (smile)

Dave

PS: Someone's idea of a compact G30S instead of a sub-compact would be excellent news as well.

[JHC]

Having passing familiarity with 1911s, isn't this basically a Wilson EDC X9? Or STI Staccato?

YES! For $600! ;)

[RJ]

I’m going with...paddle mag releases as an option on every model.

:cool:

[farscott]

If it’s a .22LR, it’s probably going to cost me money.

Same here. Since I have invested in both G3 and G4 Advantage Arms .22 LR conversion kits, it is about time for Glock to offer a factory solution.

[RJ]

My official guess; this is coming to the US:

Easy. It’s an affordable USPSA Limited gun with affordable magazines with all the features that people really want.

[PNWTO]

As intrigued as I would be by a Glock PCC/PDW-ish thing, my money is on either .22lr-focused products or 5th Gen .45/10mm models.

Offer a G48-sized .22 with factory adjustable sights and a threaded barrel and I may even pre-order.

Isn't the main reason the older Gens stay is because of some states like CA having a registry of approved guns were the older ones are listed but the new ones aren't?

[Lost River]

I have yet to find anything truly worth dumping Gen 3 models for.

Simply put, an ultra-reliable Gen 3 G19/17/34, or G20/21 does everything I need.

The rest.. The juice is not worth the squeeze.

Well, I guess that makes two of us. One Gen2 19 with a Gen 3 frame replacement (at no cost from Glock). One Gen 2.5 G26. One Gen4 G17 (because I wanted something with a rail for the nightstand and I didn't get the frame replacement until a few months later).

You're welcome to a shot and a beer at my establishment anytime you fancy.

(I think about the new models often but then realize that they won't reinvent the wheel and I'm happy with the ones I've owned and lived with on and off the job for so long.)

Grin! Same Here Brother.

If I was starting over, or brand new, I would get a Gen 5, and not think twice. I would work on skills sets and not worry about caliber stuff, or other minutia. Just work on me and my ability to put rounds on target, or lack of ability.

But since I am not, and I have super reliable Gen 3s, I just keep on focusing on the weakest link in the entire system. And improving his skill sets. And making sure he does not start sentences with "And". ;)

So Glock wants to enter the polymer wristwatch market? Good luck going up against Swatch!

Realistically I expect them to come out with something to compete head to head with the Sig P365 and Hellcat. I'm expecting S&W and Ruger to do the same at Shot Show.

What I would like to see is a Glock revolver to compete with the LCR, but with cylinders that are swapped out for quicker reloads and extra-long sight radius. But that's just silliness.

[SAWBONES]

Marketing ploy, probably nothing truly new and different.

If it's not either a factory .22LR or a carbine, I'm betting I'm not gonna be much interested.

I have seen offers recently for $400 Gen 3 17s and 19s from PSA and a couple others, for all you old timers.

It's also almost certainly not he 26X that I want.

Its a play on the 10th at 10 a.m. and the picture of the guy out hiking in the wilderness on the countdown clock is a clue.

Brand new Gen 5 frame type, a new slimmed down 10mm, with 10 round mags. Sorta what the G48 is to the G19, it will be to the G20....my guess and I am sticking to it....

If it were a gun thing wouldn't they wait till Shot 2020 to announce?

December 10th is prime time for the Christmas gift market.

Damn, it's a watch.

Disappointing.

[GJM]

YVK told me tonight, there is really no new Glock configuration he covets, which indicates Glock has done a good job filling out their product line.

The only thing missing for me on the Gen 5 pistols is finger grooves. As best as I can tell, the FBI asked that they be deleted, and that followed to the Gen 5 pistols. I believe the finger grooves help me shoot better, and I wish there were Gen 5 or 6 pistols that had finger grooves. Damn FBI! :p

[fatdog]

I think a few of the gun companies are getting smart enough to realize that new product introductions at Shot Show and the NRA show are the equivalent of farting in a hurricane. You never get the full spotlight and your product is competing with a hell of a lot of noise from every other company that thinks the 1970's paradigm of introducing new products at an industry trade show is the correct way to get attention.

One day maybe we can have replaceable front straps. One with and one without. I was never bothered by the finger grooves and didn’t get into Glocks until Gen 3. After shooting the 5th gen though I prefer not having them.

ETA: And I really want them to offer more guns with the RTF2 texture. To get that now I have to buy a Gen 3 gun or frame.

I have only shot a handful of Buffalo Bore hard cast in my G40 and they worked fine. If I go outside to places where I might be a meal to 4 legged critters it has either Underwood Extreme Penetrators or Federal trophy bonded 180gr JSP’s. Both rounds run without issue although I did swap in a 22lb RSA from NDZ.

I am less interested in what the new Glock is than how many days it takes for one of their dealers to accidentally spill the beans. I can’t remember one of their surprises actually being a surprise by the time “the date” rolled around.

Your post got me thinking. I went over to Lipseys to see if they accidentally posted anything. Nothing appears like what we’d expect. But I was pleasantly surprised to see suppressor ready versions of the G45!

Plenty of other people have used their mags to build carbines around. It does seem a touch odd that they've refrained from doing it themselves, which of course means nothing in terms of them actually doing it.

[TheNewbie]

A 10 round smaller gripped .45 Glock would actually be tempting to me.

[Joe S]

The worrying thing about this is, excuse another pun, the timing.

If it were a gun thing wouldn't they wait till Shot 2020 to announce?

December 10th is prime time for the Christmas gift market.

Damn, it's a watch.

Disappointing.

Watches, when not running, are typically displayed with the time at 10:10 in retail and advertising settings. It's supposed to look better, or maybe even like a happy face, or that's the explanation I've heard.

My bet is they are bringing back the finger grooves. That would be par for the course for Glock “innovation” and excitement. LOL!

Just bring out the carbine, import what is available elsewhere, and a .22 would also be nice. Other than that, we have what we need from Glock.

Maybe the G46?

[Borderland]

Glock probably noticed the 40s&w comeback thread broke 15 pages and decided it's time to release the Gen5 pistols in 40s&w.

The 40 S&W is dead. Even a new Glock won't revive it. :rolleyes:

[BigT]

Maybe a Glock shotgun that changes barrels between 12 and 10 gauge? With a birdshead grip that has the Glock Gen 4/5 RTF so it's a shotgun that's not legally a shotgun?
Okay so who spilled the beans, this was supposed to be a secret.

[BigT]

Alternatively, if it's not an MOS 48, I'd be happy with them declaring they will never, ever make anything like a 1911.

And if it's a watch, oh my, the irony, Rolex watch out...
They are adament that everything they make will be a Glock, so no 1911's or revolvers etc



The G46 is very cool, but until they do a non german police trigger its not going to sell outside that market.

My bet is on the Glock 46 released to the masses as the Glock 44.

And btw, a European gun magazine was able to shoot the 46. It comes with a heavy trigger and a lighter one and shorter travel. No manual safety. Slightly heavier than a G19. Reliable: 3 G46 with 10 000 rounds, 5 malfunctions and no parts broken.

Not according to GLOCK as of May of this year. I think maybe the guys writing that article just assumed you could drop a different connector in and have a standard trigger. The Trigger mech housing is designed to give it the longer pull.

That’s too mainstream bro. As a millennial I’d only be interested if it was chambered in .44 Henry rimfire, and came with a hypercolor grip frame that changes from turquoise to purple when you touch it.

I believe they would have another manufacturer build, design them and throw on a Glock logo. There's so many manufacturers that have these OEM's from China and Japan (LOW for example) building scopes it's ridiculous.

And for Portland PB at least, the Glock 21.

Every time this happens, I get a little hopey that we'll see a Glock 19 sized .22, or a Glock 9mm PCC, but it's probably gonna be like Lucy promising Charlie Brown she'll let him kick the football for real next time.

[pangloss]

They had enough humor to make the Glock 45 a 9mm. I think that making the Glock 44 a .22LR would be pretty cute. However, I don't think it'll happen because it's harder to achieve very high reliability with rimfires. I could see Glock worrying that a bad bucket of bulk .22 would tarnish Perfection.

I ordered a dozen, but then heard they were being made by Checkmate, and cancelled my order. There was also some discussion of a cease and desist order coming from the association of PCC shooters, since they are the only ones supposed to have that many cartridges at a USPSA pistol match.

[M2CattleCo]

Would probably be too wide and cause the rounds to bind as they roll up.

Might work for 40 though.

If Glock really wanted to do something amazing they could offer a service to fix all their barely functioning junk they've put out for the past decade.

On the issue of Checkmate mags, I wonder if the US-made P365 mags are made by them? I haven’t really heard of reliability problems with those mags.

Exactly! Love or hate Glock they pretty much dominate the pistol market. Especially considering all they make are handguns. Now if they come out with a carbine or something along those lines I think a lot of other companies will feel the burn. My only hope is Glock becomes my total system provider and sticks with the K.I.S.S. formula. That formula works for me.

One of my LGS dropped prices on both 17.5 and 19.5’s two weeks ago. They are known for limited time sales that are pretty good, but I have never seen one this good. I bought a 19.5 with front serrations for $470 sticker price. Even though I had one already I felt like I couldn’t pass that up. It’s damn near like using a GSSF coupon. Looking back, I wonder if there will be some new versions of the Gen 5s coming with optics mounted. Like Sig and their RX line with Romeo 1 attached except replace the Romeo 1 with a new polymer lensed Glock optic to be announced.

Why does no one seem to have much love for the G26? I’ve always been very happy with my G26 since I first got it a few years ago. It will likely never replace my G19 as my primary go-to gun but it’s incredibly capable. With the 10 round mag I can conceal it in the pocket of my lounge around the house shorts or throw it on my ankle as a backup gun at work. With the +2 OEM extended mag, it’s a very accurate little pistol that I can get a full firing grip on. I also use it as my vacation pistol because it’s one gun that can function as a lounge around pocket gun and an AIWB CCW gun for when I stop lounging. I still carry a G17 mag as a reload so I’m only losing three rounds to my G19 loadout. I feel that the 26 is almost as versatile as the 19.

With the 10 round mag I can conceal it in the pocket of my lounge around the house shorts or throw it on my ankle as a backup gun at work. With the +2 OEM extended mag, it’s a very accurate little pistol that I can get a full firing grip on. I also use it as my vacation pistol because it’s one gun that can function as a lounge around pocket gun and an AIWB CCW gun for when I stop lounging. I still carry a G17 mag as a reload so I’m only losing three rounds to my G19 loadout. I feel that the 26 is almost as versatile as the 19.

I have one of the first Gen 2.5 G26s. It went into the safe when my place switched to .40 in ‘98 and,as a FA instructor, was issued a G27 along with my duty G22.
When work goes back to 9 in a year or two, it will come out of the safe and get some new sights and go back to work.
Only downside is that reloads are a little strange with the short grip.

I'm with you. The G26 (and extra mag) is the gun I carry once I set foot in the 4Runner to leave home. (The 19 also gets called upon but less so of late.)

Mine is a Gen 2.5 purchased in 1995 or 1996 and it's never let me down. (Had it updated internally at the mother ship last year after I launched a spring and couldn't find it.)

G26 is still the best Glock. JMO.

[ralph]

I am less interested in what the new Glock is than how many days it takes for one of their dealers to accidentally spill the beans. I can’t remember one of their surprises actually being a surprise by the time “the date” rolled around.

This^^^ is so true, and it did exactly what it was supposed to do, Get everyone talking about Glock. I mean, here we are 22 pages later.. As a marketing ploy, this works..

[TheNewbie]

Does Glock still make the 45 GAP models?

[nwhpfan]

So when I go to https://us.glock.com/en it says "Something Legendary is Coming." Did it used to say "Something Big?"

Also says you get a Chuck Norris challenge coin if you buy some black Friday stuff.

OK... Chuck Norris is both big and legendary so I'm thinking a special edition Chuck Norris Glock 7.

Hey guys, the 26 is so old school, like a Motorola flip phone. The 43X, and the 48 for the less sophisticated crowd, is the new hotness. The 26 is like a plus size model, compared to the svelte 43X.

:o

More cushion, less pushin'. ;)

[Center Shot]

Not necessarily. I would be more excited about a 10mm gen5 or a Glock 46 being for sale. But I am a simple man and already have ar15s and MCXs.

I would be interested in the Glock 46, but not "damn excited". A PCC in 10mm would be "damn exciting", and a PCC in 9mm would be "exciting"!

[Glenn E. Meyer]

I shot a 43, don't see the reason to ditch the 26. I carry OWB and concealment for either would be the same.

Will you be able to get a carry permit in NY?



I was not a huge fan of the 43. The 42 was alright but the two I had did not work. Not sure if it was my grip or if it was the guns.

[Glenn E. Meyer]

Empirical question. I've met quite a few regular folks who have them. We will see.

A slim grip 10 round Gen5 .45 ACP Glock would give me reason to say how the .45 is better and Glocks never fail, so I have to get one.

[psalms144.1]

I too love the G26, but mine hasn't come out of the the gun safe in the four months + that I've had the G43X. The 43X is every bit as shootable, easier to reload, lighter, easier to carry both IWB and OWB. In fact, I've reached the point where my G26 is likely to be gifted to a close friend who's been looking to upgrade his older G26 to a new Gen5...

The 43X is like a WNBA player with oddly short arms. Tall, but has a hard time shooting as well as the rest of the team. Did I mention she chokes on the recommended duty loads? Take that as you will.

Thread relevance: I am sticking with my earlier prediction of a 10mm PCC.

[RJ]

I think the G26 was a great gun when it was introduced. It’s just there are so many 10+1 options these days to compete with.

I never warmed up to mine, and basically traded it for Glock 43X. I vastly prefer it to the 26. YMMV obviously.

[TheNewbie]

I wish Glock did the following ONLY.


.22- Compact or Full sized.

.380- 42, 42x

9mm- 17, 19, 26, 34, 43x, 45

.45 ACP- 21, 30, a thin .45 with 9-10 round capacity


PCC in 9mm and 45.




That would keep it simple and cover most bases for most users.

[blues]

It's pretty obvious the cool kids prefer the 26.

(Okay, Boomer.)

[GearFondler]

I'd like to see a G42 frame in 9mm... If Sig and SA can fit 9mm in that footprint, so can Glock.
I don't expect many to agree with me, but the G42 is just small enough for pocket carry but it's too big to justify it being a .380, especially since it could be a 9mm. JMHO.

[RevolverRob]

but it's too big to justify it being a .380, especially since it could be a 9mm. JMHO.

Not if you want it to work right.

G43s are fairly reliable, but not the most reliable gun in Glocks lineup. A G42-sized 9mm would likely be the least reliable Glock in the whole line. There may be “smaller” 9mm handguns, but not many you want to count on...

—

My new prediction - Glock has bought MantisX and pulled a Volkswagen and edited the code, so when you dryfire pre-GEN5 guns it shows you having tight groups, all in an effort to obfuscate mediocre mechanical precision.

—

Glock has decided to get into the shotgun game, by building a long-slide .410.

I can't really argue with you there since you insist on living in reality... I thought this thread was about dreams and fairy dust. [emoji14]

I’m fighting a cold and thus sitting in bed with too much spare time. Here is a patent approved on Nov 21, 2019 -

A takedown lever that does not require the trigger to be pressed.

I’ve not found patent filings or even pending trademark filings for a carbine.

How long after a patent is filed before product is announced and then available to purchase?

Is the time it takes for a patent to be approved known or predictable?

[RevolverRob]

Is the time it takes for a patent to be approved known or predictable?

Nope. It may mean nothing at all. Companies patent stuff all the time, sometimes just to prevent competition. And there is nothing that stops you from producing something “patent pending” and then updating the nomenclature later with patent dates/numbers.

At this point, merely speculation - that isn’t quite rampant, but certainly has no other evidence to support it.

I wonder if that is describing the take down lever from the 46.

My thoughts exactly.

[RevolverRob]

Oh that could be. There are also a couple of patents for the rotating barrel assembly in the 46.

[Totem Polar]

One more prediction: whatever it is, it won’t be reliable until the upgraded "-1" frame, ejector housing, extractor, and magazines arrive a year into shipping. Unless it uses G17 mags. Then it won’t be reliable until post-consumer beta testing produces the upgraded "-1" frame, ejector housing and extractor a year into shipping.

[call_me_ski]

At least you won’t have to wait two years like if it were a Sig. :cool:

I think Beretta has reputation of the longest - leak to announcement to market.

Are we talking habitually? Because the LWRCi SMG45 must have set a record. I think it was shown at SHOT in 2013 or 2014 and finally available for purchase a few months ago.
