Title says it all. That's all I can find. I thought they went to no cutout across the board?

Right now the MOS is the only way, but they have said the regular gen 5 will be changed to no cutout going forward at some point.Originally Posted by ASH556
I like the cutout, so I recently bought a backup before they make the change.
As far as I know yes.

Okay stupid question, what is the cutout?

Cutout in magwell just above magazine floorplate to act as a place to put fingers to pull out a stuck mag. Problem is they put the cutout front/back instead of on sides where most people would instinctively grab if needed.
Bigger problem is the cutout grabs skin on people with meaty hands and can make mag changes painful.
Thanks for the summary.

I’ve also been wondering if the updated versions have hit the shelves yet. I’m literally just waiting to buy one.

The cut out in the front is primarily to facilitate using the lip of the mag baseplate to strip the mag out during one handed manipulations.
If you are preparing for a gun fight, you must prepare for being shot. For gun games it doesn't matter but IME the cut out also allows slightly faster reloads.
I have meaty XXL hands, the cut out did not bother me on Gen 1, 2, or early gen 3 glocks and it doesn't bother me on Gen 5s. To each their own.
I’ve had multiple sources at Glock tell me that the cut-outs are going away, but no one has been able to give me an exact time frame.
The cut-out doesn’t bother me, but I think the MOS frame feels a little better in my hand.
I don't notice the cutout. It's the crunchy trigger that gives me problems
