Glock 32 .357 SIG Chapter 2

[@sebenro12]

3 weeks later a 357sig would be used to stop a mass shooter in a Texas Church by Mr. Jack Wilson.

[@kennethpowers8995]

No shit, didn't know that's what he was carrying, good for him. .357 Sig doesn't get much attention anymore but it's a damn good cartridge in my opinion. EDC Gen 3 G32 for years now.

I think a man named Jack Wilson from Texas just single handedly re-invigorated interest in the .357 sig cartridge.

[@hickok45]

Probably so, but any good round in 9mm, .40, .45ACP, etc. would have had the same effect.

Seeing as he dropped him with a clean one tap. He could have done it with a .22 with that accuracy.

hickok45 I heard someone say that it packs the punch of the 10mm with the projectile of the 9mm. What is your opinion?

[@brucebelitz3451]

I've daily carried a glock 32 in .357 sig for 19 years and love the flat shooting, long distance, hard hitting round! A 4 inch drop from a 4 inch barrel at 100 yards is something! Absolutely great windshield penetration and terminal ballistics! It is a hand full, more straight back than muzzle rise as recoil goes, but very controllable and spot on when the chips are down!

[@ephialtesjackson3620]

It's the only Glock I own and i keep it in my rotation especially in the winter times for reasons you've mentioned.

[@cjhudson419]

Godbless you for your service

[@TheUserUnknown]

I worked for Federal and another major ammo producer and in our test had the most consistent velocity penetration and expansion across the board. It’s almost perfect. Not to mention reliably was off the chart. Velocity really lended itself to incredibly reliable expansion and hard barrier penetration. It had a very noticeable edge in incapacitated personnel and an experienced shooter really shines at the point of impact of such a flat shooting loading. It’s truly the king and ultimate iteration of the 9mm loading.

[@blackice5363]

If I carried a gun it would be the Glock 32 like you said it's almost the perfect round 9mm just won't do what the 357 sig will do

*Commenting before watching whole vid* - This is the 25 year anniversary of the 357 Sig. I got hooked in 1999 and have shot multiple thousands of rounds! Sig P229 is top of my list. My Glock 31 is an excellent pistol!!

[@StreetRocketJoe]

357 sig is far from dead in my household. It is by far the best pistol caliber out there.

[@MrIdasam]

It is a good caliber. But I will say that I put a barrel chambered in .357 SiG in my Glock 23 and that damn thing was a bucking bronco. I was really surprised at the recoil. It's a hot round.

[@StreetRocketJoe]

Ragemutt yes it’s hot but with training and practice it’s as easy to shoot as 9mm. But if you watch testing on 357 sig it expands and performs way better then 9 or 45. It has little to no over penetration because the hollow point open up so reliably, where as some 9 and 45 have trouble opening up all the way and can over penetrate significantly because that.

[@jdecar1]

Ok, but then why not 40sw? 9mm has the advantage of extra mag capacity. If you're going to give that up, then for what? Barrier penetration? Feeding reliability? I think those differences are marginal relative to the cost of ammo compared to 40sw.

[@StreetRocketJoe]

Jason DeCarlo oh 40sw is alive and well in my house as well. My wife and I love high pressure ammo.

[@highplainsdrifter9631]

@@jdecar1 357 SIG is faster and packs more power than the 40. The case on the SIG is a tad longer, and the cartridge runs at higher pressure. I don't like the 40 because I prefer the OG 40, the 10mm. Firing real 10mm loads, not the weak watered down 40+P stuff.

[@judgehastheword9069]

I have a 357sig GLock Gen4 31. It's my Everyday carry gun. I'm in a wheelchair I use a Holster that mounts to the side my chair has a pull off cover. I been carrying it now for 4 years. I love it. I practice at least every 2 weeks. Can never practice to much. For the carry ammo I use the Lehigh Defense. I plan on carrying it from now on. Most of my practice is one handed.

[@bradslone8511]

I'm in a wheelchair too and I carry in an inside the waist band holster. My current carry gun is the Springfield Armory XDS .9mm with 4 inch barrel and I carry 2 extra mags. I prefer a .45 ACP but I just cant really afford the ammo for it so I carry the 9mm as of right now. For years I carried a Glock 21 and loved it.

[@813Tactical]

I’ve had the Glock 32 Gen 4 a few years ago and I DO miss it. I now carry my Glock 19 Gen 5 MOS and want to go back to 357 sig and I’ve had that on my mind for years. Debating either 357 sig or 10mm but I’m probably gonna hand pick my 357 sig again and I can’t fathom getting rid of the gun because gun stores “SAY” That 357 is dead and expensive IF you could find it. It’s hard to find because it works much better than 9mm IMO

[@johnbanks8664]

This is 2023.... And I still carry the glock 32. To me it is a very reliable and very powerful round to carry for self defense. Due to the round being necked down, failure to feeds are never an issue.

[@rodolforivero7282]

Siempre quise tener una Glock 31 o 32, pero al negarse Magtech a fabricar este formidable calibre se hizo muy dificil en argentina comprar ese calibre. Uno por el precio de la munición y otra por la muy poca variedad de puntas que instalaban en lo que nos llegaba. Por eso fuí fiel al .40 SW que tambien va perdiendo su prestigio muy bien ganado. Para mi por la NATO y esas monedas de diferencia volvieron al 9 m.m. pensando en guerras y economía. Prefieron tener .40 SW o .45 ACP ante cualquier llamado del demonio. Siempre lo diré hasta que me pongan la tapa, si es que así toca. Tengo 73 años... Unos 60 con armas y nunca logre conseguir mi sueño. Tener una Coonan en .357 Magnum que es mi calibre preferido en armas de puño. Saludos pistoleros y siempre fiel al señor Hickok45 por sus grandes enseñanzas y consejos certeros en este mundo harto difícil de las armas de fuego...✌️

[@kebotrans]

Preferred caliber of Jack Wilson👊🏻

[@factsoftheconfederacy7151]

.45 ACP and .357 SIG are my favorite carry rounds. I carry .357 SIG because of its extra velocity and it’s necked. Given that it’s necked, you get more reliable feeding into your firearm. 13 +1 in my SIG P320 Compact is nice. It really isn’t too big of a burden to shoot. You can’t put a price on your life, so sometimes the “price” argument has no validity to me. As for .45 ACP, if I’m losing that feeding and velocity advantage, I want a bigger bore.

[@eproberts95]

I bought this gun a little over two years ago. I loved it ever since the first time I shot it. I completely understand your argument about not wanting the loud sound or more noticeable muzzle blast but I personally don’t think that those cons outweigh the pros of this cartridge. I like the extra velocity and I believe that it makes it a more effective round. I also don’t believe that those negatives will really be anything that stands out if I ever need to use this in a real self-defense situation. But at the end of the day, any firearm is better than no firearm. Thanks for the videos and keep doing what you do! Great review!

[@johngrunwell2412]

2024-I dropped a 357Sig barrel into my G23 Gen5 and have had No problems with feed issues at all. With the newer Glock 40s (and no Glock 357Sig Models Gen5) their wider frames and chambers only a barrel change is needed. I believe Glock anticipated that. I run as CC a G23/4 and love it w/180gr loads. The Gen5 23/32 Gen5 is entirely a smooth shooter, LOVE IT.

[@Whalermansteve84]

I carry my Glock 32 everyday. Love it , ammo is pricy , but I’m ok with that , I typically carry 2 or 3 mags with me when I’m about and about , especially when I’m on my nightly strolls .. one night I got I was out for a walk and got stopped by a local police officer and I politely told him I was was carrying legally and told him what I had. He had to look it up to see what it was lol. He asked me “ sir what are your afraid of “. I told I’m I’m afraid of stupid people doing stupid things that jeopardize my life or or my family’s safety.. he gave me my ID and my CCW permit back and said have a nice day. A few weeks later I saw him again and he said he got to shoot a .357 Glock and it was too much for him 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. He said I had “ mad props “. I told him not not afraid of any caliber that I need to defend myself, I’m more afraid of the other person I’m defending myself against. 9mm, .357 sig , .40 are all extremely effective rounds.

[@johncashwell1024]

Great Range 2 video Hickok45! I, personally, love the 357Sig & 10mm. I think they are both great cartridges and definitely, in my opinion, the cartridges for 'Pistol Calibre Carbines'. In a full sized pistol, 'duty' size or 'carry/compact' size they are great as well. But in a PCC both of these cartridges especially shine, more so than other pistol cartridges in a PCC. When the 10mm came out it was really popular but then its popularity waned considerably and after several years people began to see the light, if you will, and 10mm returned with a vengeance. I can see 357Sig following that same path but I believe that it will not take but a couple years for the 357Sig to come back strong, especially if some company offers it on a weapon platform that really takes advantage of and highlights the 357SIG's best attributes.

[@slimeyslug12]

yes sir. 357 sig out of a long barrel is crazy. once i finally get my barrel reamed out for 357 sig i will have my AR PCC will 11'' barrel chambered in 357 sig.

Far from dead, Hick! Haha. Love your channel. Exceptional round. Despite peoples’ opinion, the 9mm is not close to the 357 sig in performance. Not in the same league. Not saying one is better than the other but they are not comparable. 357 is an exceptional round.

I recently bought a G33 barrel for my G27 that was failing to feed with .40cal, I was upset, so it’s now a G33 with zero fail to feeds, BTW the .40 cal mags for the G33 work perfectly for 357 Sig for some Odd reason, the G33 mags holds 8, the .40 mag holds 9 357 sig

I carry a g33 (G26 in .357 sig) in the rotation because it has great recoil (just a little more than 9mm but much less than.40s&w) response and better ballistics than anything else sans 10mm imho. Plus all the .40s&w guns are super cheap and conversion barrels are $100-$150 usually. All of the.40s&w guns in my safe all are now .357 sig guns too. I am always on the lookout for deals on 40s, which are a plenty, if there is a .357 barrel available I snatch it up.

As I understand it, .357 Sig was developed for the purpose of replicating a 125gr .357 magnum in an automatic, and looking at the numbers, they pretty well accomplished that. It outperforms 124gr 9mm +p by roughly 200 fps and 100 ft/lb at the muzzle. The problem is that this is a relatively modest difference in performance when compared to the much higher cost over 9mm. Pair that with the fact that 357 Sig now has to contend with the resurgence of 10mm auto, the future for the round looks rather bleak. It's a cool round, but it's trying to fill a gap in the market that just isn't there.

Ppl talk so negatively about 357 Sig. I've seen it outperform 9mm +p+ in several tests. It's expensive compared to regular 9mm, but not so much with +p+. The reason the government agencies are moving away is about cost. Any Glock 40 cal can easily convert to 9mm or 357 Sig. The 40 cal magazine works perfectly with 357 Sig.

Agreed about ppl having the innate desire to reinvent the wheel. "Some ppl are just satisfied with the round wheel.." Hickok45. Agree it's about contentment. Love the experience of the share, but doubt I'll ever own or shoot 1 357 sig cartridge. No desire here. Be well, safe and support the Liberties of the Republic

Lol John at the end 🤣 " That's a great gun for tha'fence"

[@highplainsdrifter9631]

Montana Highway Patrol still issues the SIG P229 in 357 SIG, as well as other state/Highway patrol agencies. Federal Air Marshals issue the 357 SIG as well. It is a fantastic cartridge, one that deserves more attention and appreciation. Everyone just rolls with the 9mm today because they are so cheap to shoot, but the 357 SIG is the superior cartridge.

[@jamalmckenzie3822]

Montana just switched to the M&P 9 2.0

[@2ndamendmentfanboy723]

357sig is like a 9mm on steroids💪packs more punch👊

[@Paulie705]

In 2024, it's still a great cartridge. It's not dead (as proven by Mr. Jack Wilson). It's just too damn expensive for most people. It would have a renaissance if the supply were greater and prices were lower

[@markmullen8081]

I carry a G-33 everyday, 357 SIG lives.

[@TyreonCryptor]

Same here. I own a 4th & a 3rd gen G33 and a 4th & a 3rd gen G27 both with 357 Sig barrels. Either of those is my everyday carry.

[@rahthashoota2877]

Can they get 30 round mag

[@gerardjones3569]

Rah Tha Shoota use the g27 mag and load 357sig in it

[@rahthashoota2877]

Gerard Jones have u tried it?

[@gerardjones3569]

Rah Tha Shoota Not yet i need to order a g27 mag. I got the g31 mag in my g33 (15 rounds)

I just ordered a blue label Gen 4 Glock 32 with Glock factory night sights. It just arrived at the firearms shop on Friday, the 12th. I’ll go and pick it up tomorrow, on Monday, after I wake up. Ironically, I also just bought a blue label, Gen 4 Glock 23 with factory night sights on the 30th of May. My first Glock that I ever bought was a blue label Gen 3 Glock 22 with Glock factory night sights. I bought it in early 2009. The department that I work for uses Glock 22 handguns and I fell in love with those firearms. I now own a bunch and would own ever more if Glock would allow blue label eligible customers to buy more than 2 a year. I will probably always trust Glocks with their reliability more than any other firearms. But I do own many other firearms as well from other manufacturers and do like a lot of their features better but seeing what are Glocks go through in training and still, always function that has made me trust them the most.

I’m glad your still a teaching, just a little different subject 👍

[@akompsupport]

Best caliber! great video! Glad to see a high res chapter 2.

[@beowulf3303]

I’m really liking everything that I have seen on this caliber!! When funds allow I plan on picking one up.

[@davidjames2788]

I have a Glock 32. I like it a lot, because I got it for free as a gift. I don't necessarily think it's worth the extra price for ammo, and sacrificing space in the magazine. I like the higher velocity, but I don't think it is taken advantage of well with the short barrel.

[@jeremyb7113]

The NC Highway patrol still carries the 357 sig in a sig 226

[@Gieszkanne]

And Secret Service also?

[@ppatel8774]

I have been carrying mine for over 6 years edc love it

[@ryanjenkins8728]

I love my G32 and it runs great with a 9mm conversion barrel too.

[@rodneyalaking8241]

Do you need to change the extractor or just barrel and mags? Thanks.

[@timbell7602]

@@rodneyalaking8241 if you use the lone wolf conversion barrel you just change the barrel and mags and leave the extractor

[@cb8506]

Just ordered my first 357SIG, G32...Eventhough the 9mm conversion is simple, I cant part with my beloved G19.

[@ryanjenkins8728]

@@timbell7602 I use the LW barrel and just change the mags. I have a G19 and 23 also and can interchange the barrels (9mm requires a conversion barrel) and mags in the 32 to shoot 9, 40 or .357. It's the most versatile Glock and often on sale as LEO trade ins.

[@ryanjenkins8728]

@@cb8506 Same, G19 is my go to for daily carry, but it's nice to have options.

[@norrisdillahuntjr4570]

I'm glad people think this round is dead imagine if the fan base for this caliber was identical to that of the 9mm it would be alot more casualties

[@DerekRC]

Love my 32 in 357 Sig. I shoot it well. Reloading keeps the costs down for me to. 😁

[@angrysheepdog9744]

357 SIG is a boss round for sure. 16 rounds of equivalent 357 magnum makes for plenty of one-shot problem solvers. Should only be used in frames that can handle the energy...subcompacts are waaay overstressed with 600+lbs at the muzzle. P226 + Underwood 125gr jhp's @ 1550fps=666lbs. Coincidence? Nah...sends demons to the pit.

[@BoomerMutt55]

As far as decreased use by law enforcement, three things: availability, cost, and decreasing firearms skills of new hires. There are other factors, but these are three big ones.

[@Mr257weatherby]

I will always have a 357 Sig. Cost is the main reason for it not being popular. If you look at ballistics vs. the other competitive rounds you will want one. Bullet technology has made other rounds just as competitive within reason. Looking into a model 31 next.

[@streamylc]

really didn't know anything about 357sig until i actually got the chance to have a nice convo with a game warden when i was up in the mountains fishing one weekend in NM... he had it purely for penetration and shared a few anecdotes pertaining to mountain lions/cougars... Had me pretty interested, and honestly left me feeling under powered with my 40s&w after he was gone.

[@stevennihipali3607]

I own a 40... but wouldn't carry for animals it'll do the job

[@jdecar1]

40sw is for bag guys. 10mm is for bad critters.

[@zram5632]

I was 20 or 21 years old and I had a glock31 and I used it as a SD pistol. I miss it so much lol.

[@johnskibler]

Just bought a G32 today. Wanted a 23 to go with my 27 and my hoard of 40 S&W since 9mm is very dear during these days of unrest. Of course the shop had next to no inventory but had one of these for $150 less than any other Gen 4! Another store has a decent but pricy supply of 357Sig ammo and I have a G23 barrel ordered and on its way. A good day!
