| It will likely take a short while before manufacturers are prepared to offer Gen 5 light-bearing models. IF YOU CARRY A GLOCK 19 WITH A LIGHT, note that the Gen 5 with a light will not likely fit your Kydex light-bearing holster. The Gen 5 also features only one pin near the locking block instead of the 2 pins common to recent generations. Scratches and flaked-off finish after the Glock 19 Gen 5 was dropped onto gravel repeatedly during training. | In December 2024, the states of Minnesota and New Jersey sued Glock over the design of the 9-millimeter semiautomatic pistol, claiming that the company had failed to make changes to prevent the easy conversion of the pistol into an illegal and much more dangerous machine gun. Experts on gun control, mass shootings, and defense training have cited factors such as reliability, ease of use, and commonness for why Glock pistols are so often involved in mass shootings and other criminal acts. A 2014 report by the Chicago Police Department found that Glock pistols were the third most traced handgun, coming after those from Smith & Wesson and Sturm, Ruger & Co. While it is possible to load .40 S&W into these magazines, the friction causes the larger rounds to lock up inside the magazine body and will induce malfunctions. The .357 SIG magazines differ from the .40 S&W counterpart, with the addition of an internal rib on each side of the magazine body including cutouts for the followe |
| The location of the magazine release is good and I only have to modify my grip slightly to get my medium-sized hands into position to actuate it (as I do on every pistol made). For those of you who like Glock pistols, but not the grip finger grooves, the Gen 5 comes with a flat-face frontstrap on the grip. The G19 V pistol features the GLOCK Marksman Barrel (GMB), nDLC surface finish, front serrations, an ambidextrous slide stop lever, and more. The reversible magazine catch and ambidextrous slide stop lever make it ideal for left and right-handed shooters. The new frame design without finger grooves still allows to instantly customize its grip to accommodate any hand size by mounting the different Beavertail Backstraps. The very slightly wider frame means that the takedown tabs are ever so slightly more recessed than on previous generation model | |

The result is a darker and, reportedly, more durable finish. It is no mistake that the Glock 19 sets the standard for size to capacity ratio in the pistol world. Most holsters made for concealed carry are made poorly are not configured to properly angle the pistol to aid in concealment. I wear a Glock 19 with a light in appendix position every day and never have a printing problem. Malfunctions I have experienced none in ~4,000 rounds with my Gen 5 Glock 1 |

| In 1980, the Austrian Armed Forces announced that it would seek tenders for a new, modern duty pistol to replace their World War II–era Walther P38 handguns. In October 2025, Glock announced a major "right-sizing" initiative, ceasing production of over thirty variants to streamline manufacturing and introduce redesigned components to mitigate full-auto conversion. This led to lawsuits filed by the states of Minnesota and New Jersey in 2024, and legislation in glock 19 for sale California in 2025 (Assembly Bill 1127), aimed at forcing design changes to prevent such conversions. The widespread adoption of the design has made the Glock rise in popularity and a subject of gun control debates. | |
| First-generation models | |
| The striker firing mechanism has a spring-loaded firing pin that is cocked in two stages that the firing pin spring powers. This camming action terminates the barrel's movement while the slide continues back under recoil, extracting and ejecting the spent cartridge casing. A ramped lug extension at the base of the barrel then interacts with a glock 19 for sale tapered locking block integrated into the frame, forcing the barrel down and unlocking it from the slide. During the recoil stroke, the barrel moves rearward initially locked together with the slide about 3 mm (0.12 in) until the bullet leaves the barrel and chamber pressure drops to a safe level. Glock plans to replace the discontinued models in December with "V" designations after the model numbers, which will feature redesigned trigger bars and rear plates designed to prevent the use of full-auto switche | |

| Barrel | This cross pin is known as the locking block pin and is located above the trigger pin. The magazine was slightly modified, changing the floorplate and fitting the follower spring with a resistance insert at its base.[citation needed] Many of the first-generation Glocks were shipped and sold in the iconic "Tupperware" style plastic boxe |
| The slide and barrel shelf have been resized, and the front portion of the polymer frame has been widened and internally enlarged, to accommodate the dual recoil spring assembly. Mechanically, fourth-generation Glock pistols are fitted with a dual recoil spring assembly to help reduce perceived recoil and increase service life expectancy. The basic grip size of the fourth-generation Glock pistols is slightly smaller compared to the previous design. Besides that, non-firing dummy pistols ("P" models) and non-firing dummy pistols with resetting triggers ("R" models) have a bright red frame, and Simunition-adapted practice pistols ("T" models) a bright blue frame for easy identification. The first-generation (Gen 1) Glock pistols are most notably recognized by their smoother "pebble finish" grip and finger groove-less frame | |

| As is typical of pistols chambered in .357 SIG, each of the standard Glock models (31, 32, and 33) may be easily converted to the corresponding .40 S&W chambering (Glock 22, 23, and 27, respectively) simply by replacing the barrel. As is typical of many pistols chambered in .40 S&W, each of the standard Glock models (22, 23, and 27) may be easily converted to the corresponding .357 SIG chambering (Glock 31, 32, and 33, respectively) simply by replacing the barrel. These models have bigger, wider slides and frames and are larger than the smaller-chambered pistols.

| | I have also spent time with it disassembled, getting familiar with the internal changes and issues with parts replacement (since Glocks are fun hobby kits). I’ve run it for static precision and in dynamic defensive drills from concealment, with and without a light attached to the rail. For this Glock 19 review, I’ve been using my Gen 5 since late August and have put roughly 4,000 rounds through it since. Roughly seven years later we’re presented with the next generation in Glock’s lineup. I’ll probably look into a gen 3 and building it out to how I wan |

| | Glock pistols chambered for the .45 GAP (and the .45 ACP) feature octagonal polygonal rifling rather than the hexagonal-shaped bores used for models in most other chamberings. It moves rearward in recoil until it is tilted below the slide, similar to the standard locked-breech system.

| | The dimension from the top of the slide to the bottom of the accessory rail is slightly greater on the Gen 5 than with the Gen 4. The grip texture is identical to the Gen 4 and is serviceable, unless you have wet or bloody hands (therefore, be sure to stipple your Glock if it is a carry gun). Perhaps because of this change, the frame is very slightly wider and very slightly taller than that of the Gen 4. The Gen 5 Glock 19’s largely unadorned slide comes in black Melonite finish that is then treated with an nDLC coating. There are some who disagree and find the G19 or any Glock pistol to be just fine without this slight modification work. This anomaly went away after about 1000 rounds and never did impact the performance of the gun. |

| | The slide has the superior GLOCK hard-surface nDLC finish in non-reflective black. The slightly different frame dimension can present holster-compatibility issues is you have a mounted light. Note, however, that the slide-stop spring is no longer a leaf spring, but rather a traditional compression spring (which is very hard to install once disassembled!). None of the previous-generation Glock OEM or aftermarket triggers will fit the Gen 5. This means that your gun will probably be too tall to fit into a hard (Kydex) holster with a light. |

It comes with front serrations (FS) which provide an additional tactile surface choice when manipulating the slide giving the operator positive traction even with wet or sweaty hand.
