    Interesting time to come out with a new release when they can’t keep existing product on the shelf.

    Not very bright but does lack ambition
    And why are the Gen4s shown as LE only? Or is that old news?

    It doesn’t look as porky as I expected.

    Glock has stopped production of 9mm and 40 S&W Gen4 guns for the commercial market. They will continue to support guns already in the field for those agencies who only issue or authorize the Gen4.

    Glock announced they would be phasing out the gen 4 guns a few months ago. They will continue to support existing gen 4s.

    The only reason the still make Gen 3s is the California market.

    They didn't just decide to do this yesterday. Glock traditionally releases new models in September or October ahead of SHOT show in January. This release pre-dates COVID and the associated shenanigans.

    I'm please to see G22 and 23 MOS models. A G23 with a comp and RDS could be interesting if it runs reliably.

    Looks like the Gen5 weighs a hair over 3 ounces more than the Gen4. Wondering if that all went into the slide.
    For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil. Romans 13:4 KJV
