I am interested in anyone with a Gen 5 Glock 23 and how you like it.

I only have 300 rounds through mine but I love it. So much softer shooting than what I remember my 23 from the 1990s.
The wider slide seems to make a difference. The trigger is typical Gen 5 good and mine is 100 percent reliable using a mix of hardball and HP at 300 rounds.
Will be putting another 300 through it this week thanks to the fact that I have a decent stash of 40 left.
Recoils very much like a G21, even with full power 165's.
I didn't see a shift in POI between bullet weights, though accuracy wise it seemed to prefer Winchester Bonded.
Because the slide is thick, hitting the slide lock lever with a thumb is more difficult.
The overall accuracy is typical Gen5, and the ejection pattern is uniform at 4-5 o'clock.
Holster compatibility?
Wonder if it will work with SL ALS variants for Gen 1-4
They could be close, but the G21 is a much bigger gun than the G17/G22.
The GAP guns were 9mm/.40S&W/.357SIG size guns with a thicker slide. That's what the new Gen 5 .40S&W guns are. Whether they are exactly the same as the GAP guns, I'm not sure, but I suspect they are closer to those than a G21.
