How good is the Glock 45 9mm pistol?

We review the Glock 45 pistol and we were impressed! This high-bread semi-compact pistol combines the full sized frame of the Glock 17 with the slide and barrel length of the Glock 19 pistol.
In the initial shooting we found the G45 to be easy to shoot, accurate and soft shooting.
"The compact crossover pistol G45 in 9x19mm combines a compact slide with a full size frame and has all the benefits of a Gen5 model. Utilizing the design and engineering GLOCK developed for its military pistol (G19X), combined with Operator and worldwide Law Enforcement specifications."

@popeye1313 i’m not sure what you are referring to other than the takedown points on either side of the frame that allow you to slide the slide off the frame. If this is the case, what you want to do is only retract the slide a very short distance enough to pull those two points downward to release the slide. It’s not hard to do once you get the hang of it.

[@TheLoneRanger745]

Your right pulling at the rear of the slide , the extractor is also a loaded chamber indicator sticks out when loaded . I got this model because my hand fits better than the 19 . My'n was before the MOS VERSION came out , I practiced for a year with iron sights, then installed the DPP DOVETAIL ADAPTER PLATE W/Holosun 507c green Volcan ACSS reticle, I've gotten even better than before it was worth it . NOW there's a better plate the rear sight is mechined into the front of the plate so you can co-wittness looking through the optic . Or Glock store has what they call the "tactical cut" milling in front of the rear sight so you can still co-wittness through the optic . G-45 is Nice

@@GunsGearOnTargetTrainingLLC don’t do the performance trigger by itself. It’s too hairy for a defensive trigger. It with Johnny Glocks vex shoe and plus connector upgrade makes it perfect. If I had it to do over I would’ve just bought one of Johnny Glocks drop in kits and be done with it. Same amount of money for the GPT with his vex shoe and connector. The performance trigger by itself it’s easy to blow thru. The wall isn’t anywhere stiff enough. In a defensive situation I didn’t think it was safe enough.

[@GunsGearOnTargetTrainingLLC]

@@Drewski423 That's for your perspective. I hear you and many people feel that a 4 lb trigger and way the performance trigger breaks further forward is a concern to them. I'll be posting a review on the GPT in my G45 tomorrow. The GPT trigger weight is not a concern for me. I feel like it has a definite wall and it's not too light. I've carried 1911s and other SAO pistols like the Sig Legion SAO and both trigger we're under 4 pounds. In my opinion the weight of the trigger is secondary to training, practice and proficiency. I agree with you that some people who don't have proper training and skills would be better with a 5 lb trigger. (I shot a stock Gen 2 Glock 17, for a few years with just a stock trigger and did a 120 hours in different classes with that pistol. It worked fine but once I had the proper trigger management skills I started upgrading my triggers). There is nothing wrong with a 5 lb trigger but is is not as easy to deliver a more precise shots especially at distance. I'll definitely look into the Johnny Glocks drop in kits. Perhaps try that in my Gen 5 G19 MOS! (Thanks for the tip.) Ultimately, it comes down to each user and their proficiency with their chosen defensive tool. Thanks again for commenting.

When I put those on I can see the irons crisp and clear. But when I look down range the target is all blurry. Without the reading glasses the irons are all blurry but down range I can see the target clearly. That's the one problem with the gun Community they are so quick to judge a situation without knowing any facts.

[@Joe-oo3xv]

Has anyone had an issue with their Glock 45s slide not closing when you manuallly pull it back to close it on a newly loaded mag ? It closes fine with the release but not always when you manually pull the slide back to rack it

[@GunsGearOnTargetTrainingLLC]

It’s possible that you were riding the slide forward, and that is causing the round not to fully seat and the slide to be out of battery. The best way to rack the slide is to be aggressive ….pull the thing to the rear then let it go. Many people ride the slide forward, and this can cause stoppages like the one you’re describing. The other issue could be the ammunition though that would happen in both instances. Thank you for taking the time to comment. Watch the video and ask the question.

As an instructor I've seen many people fail to seat the magazine and when they lack the slide there is no round chambered. This is embarrassing in competition or a class but could be catastrophic in a self-defense event. Most basic self defense training teaches this important skill in a level 1 class... regardless if you're shooting a carbine, shotgun or handgun.

Has Glock entertained the idea of a G17 length barrel w/a G19 lenght grip,or do they already have this? The G45 has its place but when it come to concealed carry the grip is usually the difficult thing to hide.

They have continued to innovate and offer different options. Nevertheless, I still will always respect and appreciate the simplicity and reliability of the Glock design. I recently added a radium, arms ramjet and after burner. These really enhance the way the pistol shot for me. Granted, I have a physical handicap which doesn’t give me as much recoil control as others who have two normal hands and arms. Once again, thank you for sharing your perspective and input. Best regards and stay safe. PS, if you enjoy the content, I hope you will subscribe and share it with others.

I think you are illegal in the state of Oregon.

I don’t know that I’m quite illegal at this point, but the far left progressive folks in the state are intent on disarming the public. It’s incredibly sad and disappointing, because so, if you understand the value of personal protection and self-defense. Over the last couple of years, many people on the far left are shocked when they call the police and the police don’t comfort 30 to 40 minutes even if there’s violence involved. It’s a very sad situation. Thanks for watching in commenting

So does it take G17 mags? G19 mags? G45 mags? Is there a difference?

[@GunsGearOnTargetTrainingLLC]

The G45 is a full-size frame. It takes magazines for the Glock 17. The Glock19 magazine is too short to work in this frame. The pistol comes with the same magazines that a Glock 17 uses. These are 17 round standard capacity magazines. Unless you live in a state that restrict mag capacity. Thank you so much for watching. We have multiple videos on different Glock pistols. I hope you will subscribe to the channel and share it with friends and family.
