I wonder what the Glock Marksman Barrel is about? | |||
|
Fighting the good fight![]() |
The G19X is the commercial version of the G19MHS, Glock's entry in the military's Modular Handgun System competition (which the Sig P320 won). It's just missing the manual safety. ![]() Sort of a "Gen 5 G19 Carry". G19-length slide and barrel, with a G17-length grip. I like that it doesn't have the Gen 5-style half moon cutout in the front of the grip. I'd rather see a G17-length slide/barrel on a G19-length grip, but I might pick up one of these eventually. In fact, this interests me more than a Gen 5 G17.
Same as the Gen 5 Glocks. Glock switched to a different type of rifling, and tweaked the barrel lockup. The result is a barrel that's reportedly more accurate than Gen 1-4 Glocks. | |||

In typical Glock fashion, I am underwhelmed by their newest product. Sometimes, you gotta roll the hard six | |||

Looks pretty cool, I might need to get one. | |||

Same as on the Gen 5 Glocks. Recessed crown, modified rifling and tighter chamber. The rifling is not quite standard lands and groves, but has higher ridges than polygonal rifling. Provides better accuracy. Men fight for liberty and win it with hard knocks. Their children, brought up easy, let it slip away again, poor fools. And their grandchildren are once more slaves. -D.H.

Me too. What I really want is a Gen 5 without the half moon. What could get me reasonably close is one of these and then do a grip chop to G19 size. But then it's still in the wrong color.... Black or Gray, I'm not owning any more poop brown Glocks.
Yeah, I could be in for that config from the factory. I owned a Commander style 1911, and that concept just isn't for me. I like carrying my 19's over my 17 because the grip length is just about perfect for concealment. ______________________________________________ Endeavoring to master the subtle art of the grapefruit spoon. | |||

I'll probably drink the Kool-Aid as well. Men fight for liberty and win it with hard knocks. Their children, brought up easy, let it slip away again, poor fools. And their grandchildren are once more slaves. -D.H. Lawrence | |||

The external frame-mounted safety is entirely unnecessary. | |||
|
Gloom, despair and agony on me. ![]() |
Yes because it is drop safe. ![]() ![]() ![]() | |||

No pistol is drop-safe. The frame mounted manual safety is redundant, and it gets in the way of the Glock's most useful feature; there's nothing between the shooter and the shot but the trigger. | |||

I like it. I really like the lanyard loop. Is that 1 notch rail typical of the civilian models? | |||
|
Go ahead punk, make my day |
Besides a truly drop safe pistol legitimizes mishandling, per Ron Cohen, SIG CEO. ![]() | |||

Again, as stated in my initial post (and shown in the video in the OP), the G19X doesn't have a manual safety. The original MHS version of the G19 did (as shown in the G19MHS photo I posted). The presence/absence of the manual safety is the only obvious difference between the two models (besides the model designation rollmark on the slide).
Yes. Nearly all railed Glocks have that style rail, with a single notch. Glocks have had that style rail since the rail was introduced on the Gen 3s. ![]() ![]() ![]() The only real exception is there were a small number of G21s that were produced with a true Picatinny rail with five slots, but those are uncommon. And they require a different holster than a standard G21, as a result of the difference in rail shape. ![]() | |||

Was hoping for a 19 frame with a 26 slide, maybe one day. | |||

Hoping for confirm of a 26 Gen5. A single stack P320’ish would be cool but not unless they take some width off the slide. | |||

Yes a Glock with a safety that would be nice. need to post picks for item up for sale | |||

Using the SIG model scheme, it would be more like a G17 Carry. Maybe a G19 "X"tra. ![]() | |||
