A Glock newest model (e.g. G45) is not based of patents. The G45 doesn't have any new patents offered. Glock got a lot of patents from the beginning even prior to manufacturing firearms... When the G17 came out it was Glocks 17th patent. From then on, anything Glock makes in firearms that's different simply gets the next model number...hence the model 45. Too many people believe with each new model that it either represents a new patent added to said new model or represents how many subsequent Patents Glock has....i.e. 45 patents. Which Glock does Not have 45 patents per se.

The G19X is probably the most ergonomic and balanced Glock in its 40+year history. Thank you Glock. You omitted the fact that the 19X includes 1-17 Rd magazine, and 2- 19 Rd magazines. First time for metal night sights as standard on the G19X. The improved trigger and marksman barrel included. The G19X is now as of 3/2023 a bargain at 588.oo clams everywhere. The new military Coyote finish a first for Glock adds to it's exclusivity. A very desirable model as proved by its sales success. Love mine along with another GLOCK masterpiece, my G17L with 6.02" barrel. PERFECTION. Thank you GLOCK. 💥☮️🇺🇲✌️

I’m turning 21 August 3, and am going to look at Barretta, glock, or sig for my first pistol. I wish I had the money for all 3 but I don’t. I have shot my dads glock 45, not a fan of the stock sights or the take down of it, however, it is so reliable. I’ve also heard that glocks can either have a good trigger or bad trigger out the box. If I’d go with glock it would either be the 43x or 19. Never shot a sig before but that is my second choice. I know both glock and sig are super reliable, just not a fan of the look of the sig models like the glock, however I like the stock sights so much better and would not have to spend any more money on a sight. I’ve never been around a Barretta, however I’ve heard mixed reviews on the reliability of them, but, out of the three I love the look of Barretta so much better than both glock and sig. I’m going for a future ccw so.

It really depends if you like the more compact nature of the Glock 19 grip size. Going up to the G45 you will get a larger frame. Also, some of the Gen 5 features are an upgrade such as the barrel. At the end of the day you will need to decide if those changes are something you are looking for and if you want to pay the cost of selling your used firearm in exchange for a new one.

I could see the usefulness of the half moon cut-out on the gen5 series if you were wearing gloves & needed some extra real estate to grab w/ a malfunction to rip the mag out. That said, I chose the G45 as my new duty weapon, replacing my old gen4 G19 & I'm happy they did away w/ the finger grooves (mine did come stock w/ Glock night sights, which get the job done, but looking at trijicon HD's in the near future). The only thing I don't like is the texturing. Too aggressive for me, especially on the front strap, so like my gen4 I through Talon grips on.

Stick to the G19. If you need to go long, use a 17rd mag with a sleeve, if you need to go short use the 15rd mags. You do not have this modularity in the G19x/45. Also, you do not need the hexagonal barrel of the G19x/45, shooting skills will negate its use. If you do need a match barrel, just buy a KKM.
