@@yourlocaltransgendermom953 good stuff! ETS (just do a light search online) will turn up GREAT mag options. ETS mags are every bit (if not stronger than) Magpul Pmags in my experience, and cheaper than Pmags/OEM Glock Mags. The G26 will accept every other higher capacity glock double stack mag (ex. G19, G17, 33rd mags) barring they're the right caliber. Then, later on, get yourself a 19 and you've got backwards mag compatibility between your larger pistol and your smaller CCW pistol. Carry with the 10rd flush fit and carry two g19 mags for backup. That's what I run as my summer CCW. In the winter, I run my G19 with two g19 mags. It's a wonderful platform of choice.

I've carried double stack Glocks since 1987 as a LEO and overtime I've developed considerable "muscle memory" with them. The G26 has been in the field for 25 plus years, it's a proven reliable, accurate, durable, capacity expandable, and easy to control sub-compact. Much easier and softer to shoot than the 43 series. It replaced my Colt DS as my "off duty" 25 years ago...

Of course it does. The 43x and 48 grips are 19 length. I don't even understand the point of them at all. Who would want the same round count as a subcompact while printing like a compact/full size. Very odd pistols. And thats coming from a Glock 'fan boy'.

@@TheActualJesus In NY there is no point of having a 17 or 19 when you can the same size gun, but thinner and made for the 10 round magazine limit the state imposes. Its a niche gun for people who want a full grip unlike the 26, but is efficient in size to limit ratio.

I tried the whole super sub compact thing when I got on the shield 9 bandwagon years ago...prior to that, I carried my glock 26 gen 3...I have recently retired my shield 9 and gone back to my ole G26 because my groups have always been tighter and faster, it fits my hand better with or without pinky extender, and I can carry a spare 17 round mag for back up...Sure it's slightly more bulky but not much more. Certainly, nothing that a bigger pair of pants and a nice holster can't fix...Bottom line, carry what you shoot best...your life may depend on it.

I exchanged a kimber Solo 9mm for the Glock 26 gen 5. I would show my friends the kimber solo and my enemies the Glock 26 gen 5. The Kimber had severe racking problems that my old hands couldn't rack any longer let alone unjam the thing. I was told to use 124 grain shells. The Glock will fire most anything you have laying around and now days you aren't going to readily find 9 mm at 124 grams. I say pretty isn't best with guns you use to protect.

_Today the contest between which ammo choice is better is over_ From: Active Armed Self Protection *Their DATA* CCW Calibers used in America: - 70% of the U.S. use 9mm - 10% use .40 S&W - 9% use 45 ACP - 11% use *"other"* caliber Notes: - The 11% *"other"* calibers include the .22LR, .25, .32, 380, .357 mag., .44 mag., 10mm, 5,7x28mm, etc. - The Worlds usage of 9mm is probably even higher than above U.S. figures. *Informed (opinion) conclusion:* 1. Mouse gun & large gun calibers are not recommended for self-defense. 2. Best caliber(s) to use for CCW is the *9mm.* World police & World military agree with this as most folks use the 9mm including US police & military. *Note:* these figures are from an Active Self Protection video (Nov. 27, 2017): Biggest Takeaways of My Survey of 6,000 + Firearms Carriers | Active Self Protection Extra kzbin.info/www/bejne/iIuTp2qwpLutjJI *The 2019 & 2020 top U.S. soft shooting CCW firearms* (through sells only) - in no order: The S&W M&P Shield The Glock 43/43X The SIG P365 _So it is more _*_in 2020_*_ which 9mm Parabellum/9x19 firearm is the better _"sub-compact'_ After owning three (3) G26s, one G42 (.380ACP), one G43 and one G43X, I can say the performance (reliability, manual of arms, accuracy) is the same but... - the Glock 26 is easier to hold - logically more surface area to be in contact with. - the Glock 26 is easier to shoot faster - logically heavier pistol so it is more stable. - the Glock 43/43Xs advantage of being lighter in weight makes for all day carry comfort. - the Glock 43/43X being smaller is much easier to conceal. - the role of a concealed carry pistol (a true sub-compact) is fulfilled in the G43/43X much much, more than the G26s outdated design. *_Of note:_* Last month I took a _CCW/CHP class_ to get a concealed carry license in my new state. In my class saw for concealed carry, - nine (9) folks with 9mms, - one (1) small .45 ACP and, - one (1) .380 ACP - one (1) unknown caliber/I did not see it closely _No one was using .40 S&W anymore (at least for concealed carry)._ users out of 12 people - the limit due to COVID-19. Remember in life and handguns everything is a *compromise.* God bless. *EDIT* - _Don't forget Father's Day 21st of June 2020._

Good stuff - Out of the box, the Glock 26 is the best CCW weapon you could wish for. Civilians whine about the sights and the trigger but if you've ever served in your military, you don't get to choose which weapon you get to use. ``Don't like the sights,, don't like the trigger?" learn to live with it. Learn to make the best of it.

Not all gen 5 9mm internal parts are interchangeable with Gen 3 and 4 9mm pistols. I agree the model 26 sized Glock has a ton of upside for a carry gun.

Great job and I'm sorry you have been demonetized for the most part. I strongly suggest you open a Patreon account if you haven't already and plug it in your videos. That said, I've had a bunch of Gen3, 4, and 5 Glocks over the years, including three double stack Baby Glocks of different generations, and in my opinion, the G26 is Glock's best gun for concealed carry. However, I sold my Gen5 G26 recently and I don't think I am going back to one unless they reintroduce the finger grooves with the Gen5 trigger and other enhancements, and although I shoot left handed, and love the option of ambi controls, I am not a fan of how far these protrude compared with previous generations. They tend to get in the way of my thumbs more. I'd almost rather get a Gen4 again, but I don't like taking steps backwards, and I have other guns for concealed carry. Glock, if you're listening, get those finger grooves back on baby Glocks. I don't care about the G19 and larger guns, but the baby Glocks should retain them. For some reason I don't have the problem with them that I had on my G19's (in fact I prefer them without the grooves), and I think it has to do with the hump which slightly realigns my fingers. I think the finger grooves help mitigate recoil better than not having them on the G26, G27, and G33 pistols. Don't get me wrong, the Gen5 G26 shoots great, but the G26 shoots better in my hands with the finger grooves, and there was a reason they added them first on the G26 before adopting them to the other models later on. I am not a fan of the slick nDLC finish on Gen5's. They look better than any finish in the past in my opinion, but I'd almost rather put up with additional wear than having them that slick. Lastly, and this will sound strange, but I feel the Gen5 trigger is safer after doing a swipe test with my index finger trying to actuate the trigger by quickly swiping it down the side of the trigger guard. I can't do it on this pistol, but I can do it on any Gen3 or Gen5 Glock. That said, I have to admit, my Gen4 G26 trigger was a more accurate trigger. I know that goes against the grain, but I tested these pistols extensively, and I have no doubt that I experience more front sight disruption with the Gen5 than the Gen4 in my hands (in fact, I rarely ever experience in a Gen4 G26 or G33). Pulling the triggers tens of thousands of times on these guns and I have no doubt, and I mean NO doubt, the Gen4 is a little more accurate (trigger wise). I do like the idea of the Marksman barrel, and that's where I am in this pistol. So to summarize for Glock, change the coating, reintroduce the finger grooves, improve the trigger consistency (to put its accuracy on par with that of the Gen4 trigger while maintaining its safety values), and either leave off the ambi slide stop controls or minimize them to the outward dimensions of the Gen4.

Good review. I too am very impressed with the G26. When I first got my G26, I thought it might be difficult to shoot because of the short grip. Much to my surprise, and inexplicably, I actually shot better with the 26, than with the 19 and 17. It's a great little gun and I like the interchangeability of accessories with other Glocks. I use G17 magazines as my spares when carrying the G26.

Great video. I run the G42, G19, and the G26 Gen4s. Chose my carries as you have. Each of my Glocks have a purpose in my EDC rotation. The G26 is my go to and all have either the TLR6 or TLR8 mounted. Not much into smaller is better except with my G42, why I chose the .380cal for that weight and size. Nothing replaces range-time no matter his choice. At 72yrs capable of keeping my groups within 4" of center in a 3 shots in 3 secs drill from the holster or low ready at 50 feet, my standard practice even with my G42. The reason I chose Glocks is the grips and grip angle aswell as all my Glocks have grown with me and my abilities without a tag along "gunsmith". Again, great video and reasoning.

I have had two gen 3 26’s and a 27 and just Sat went out and got another gen5 26. I tried the shield the p365 still have a 43 but the 26 is the one I am sure positive I won’t be selling it this time.

Thanks for the review. I am looking for an MOS version of the G26, which they have already released in Europe several months back, and hopefully will arrive stateside soon. The G19 (or even the G34/g17) fits my hand better, but with some adjustment, the G26 can do the job too, I think.

I love my Glock G27 gen 3. I like .40 cal even though it's no longer the caliber of the week. It shoots very accurately and the recoil is not a problem for me at all. I wouldn't mind having a G26, but it's not a high priority when my G27 works just fine.

Rich B. You can easily convert a 27 to a 26. Buy a conversion barrel and a 26 mag. The extractor doesn’t need to be changed, but you can do that too.

I have a G26 gen 5 with factory installed Ameriglo sights. It is an amazing shooter in my hands. I actually shoot it better than my G19 gen 4. Can't explain why. For a Glock, the trigger in my G26 gen 5 is actually really nice (again, for a Glock). I carry it with a Glock 12 round mag. Thanks for the video Jay and cheers!

I just gotten mine about 3 days ago I've already ran quite a few rounds through it put it through its paces it's very accurate I love the sites I started off at about twenty yards to 25 yd . It is so easy to shoot that I kept backing up and it's very accurate at 40 yd. And with being a double stack I have 12 rounds in each that's plenty for home defense I highly recommend if you don't have one to get one
