Why so many new Glocks all of a sudden?

Why so many new Glocks all of a sudden?

My guess would be that the Gen4's were a PR nightmare for some which got blown way out thanks to the forums. I have two Gen4 19's, had to send one back but it's awesomely flawless now as the other is. I like them just as much if not more than my Gen3's because of the new SF grips.

I had NO idea a 5th 21 was coming out. Wasn't aware of any 4th issues with the 21.

Ummm....I'm guessing he meant Gen4. They haven't finished issuing them on all models yet, so the likelihood of a "Gen5" anytime in the near future is slim. I project the 5th Gen will be issued sometime in 2028.

I would suggested you do some research online or however on different brands of firearms and then visit a gun store with a range one that will let you rent guns and shoot them. From there you can shoot different ones and feel whats best dor you...this is jst my opinion of course.

Uh-oh! Is Glock following in the way of Apple with a new version every year? Oh dear!

Definitely a G26. That's what I have (I'm female). It's small enough to conceal and fits perfect in my small hands. My sister also owns a G26. We have a girl friend who has a G19 which is a tad bigger.

 

[tressa_wi]

I just googled it! I like it very very nice! Thanks for the suggestion!

Haven't heard anything about the gen5. Can't imagine Glock doing that.

As far as what recommendation for female shooter, start with the g26/g27 but I agree with the previous poster about trying one out at a range. Sometimes what works for one won't work for another. And the best test is sending lead downrange.
