Short review of Gen 5 G19 Login/Join

Rented at my local range yesterday; my points of interest were the trigger and the cutout on the front strap.

The trigger seems to run about the same weight as other Generation guns, but it definitely felt smoother to me (on this particular gun). I went back and forth dry firing between new Gen 4 and Gen 5 guns. Another customer beside me agreed.

During actual firing the front cutout did not bother me in any way. I only fired 25 rds but again, didn't even notice it.

Accuracy was fine, no surprises.
No failures of any kind.
I didn't take any pictures.

Nope, but my Shield and my Bodyguard both failed that test! They worked themselves out though.

I didn't have a lot of time. Plus, as I mentioned I was most interested in the cutout and the trigger.
