Glock 5th Gen- Nutnfancy

Glock 5th Gen becomes a reality. After rounds fired at both indoor and outdoor settings, I draw some conclusions on what this means. I am glad Glock finally did an update but probably not for the reasons you're thinking. Features update shown along side 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Glocks on the tabletop...to include my 1989 Glock 19. The question is finally answered in the end: Should I sell my previous generation Glocks to get this new one?!

Nutnfancy: the only reviewer who will interrupt the review to show off a model aircraft. Love it man! Keep doing you

[@ryanjones4917]

Good investment Federal, thank you for supporting an honest reviewer. Gunnies as well, good folks working together for the benefit of all.

[@ihk4747]

I just want to let you know that I support this channel as much as I can. I don't comment often because I come to learn, but I like as much as I can. I watch your ads and I've donated to the patreon(in admittedly very low amounts). I'm in a bad way financially. So watching 30 minute gun reviews keeps the passion flowing while I wait for opportunities to get more into guns. keep up the good work!

[@nopenotme6369]

I remember as a young Airman working at Barksdale AFB and seeing some of the QF-4 come through the transient alert ramp on their way to places elsewhere. I needed a maintenance release signature to launch my B-52 that morning and finally found my Maintenance Supervisor parked over next to the transient ramp looking at one of the QF-4's. He was unusually quite that morning and I caught a glimpse of his face, it looked like he had been crying. After getting my maintenance release he told me he started his military career working on that specific F-4 fresh from the factory.

[@RedPillVegan]

Nope Not Me cheers for that story mate

[@Taliyon]

Laser-Focus on the G17! *Whips out a sick F-4 Phantom model. Quuuoootiiiishhh!* And this is basically why Nutnfancy is my favorite gear reviewer. Years and years of a consistently refined process. Sticks to his guns... And is eccentric enough to always keep things entertaining. Like family, man... Thank you!

[@jaredketchmark1217]

Dan Willhite agreed!

[@usmcvet0313]

You're absolutely right!

[@Patriotusa44]

Don't care what others say about him. I'll never unsubscribe from this channel. Nutn is his own thing. Love it~

[@arrowheads46]

Agreed 100%!

[@REDVETTExxx]

Nutn is a good man and has taught myself a TON about firearms and tips. Others bash but haters gonna hate...... I trust this man on guns!!

[@2ndshiftgarage]

I finally gave in and bought my first Glock about a week ago, a Gen 5 / G26 and I love it. I can say without any doubt that I'll buy a G19 very soon and a G17 as well. I have never been interested in Glock and bought other brands and now find myself wishing I'd gave in sooner.

[@zcavka916]

Federal. Keep supporting TNP!

[@brianwilmoth2512]

Honestly there’s not much you can do to improve with this gun, it runs and runs and is very simplistic which is why it has such a following. I have owned Sigs, Walthers, Fns, Rugers and Smith and Wesson but I always go back to my Glocks.

[@anthonyarcher7268]

If you look at the Echelon, there's plenty they could do.

[@blessedbeyondbelief1532]

Light rail did change. the slot was changed to a 1913 sized slot instead of the original proprietary slot. This made my TLR'S fit sloppy with play. Good thing I kept my TLR slot adaptors and was able to change them out to 1913 so they fit. Good review. I upgraded all my glocks to gen 5's IMHO, it is a better gun, not by far, but i like them. Have shot about 1000 rds so far. No malfunctions, no brass to the face. its a winner so far.

[@eddiet204]

Like my music, I am a couple of years ( ok maybe a decade) behind when it comes to my guns. I just got my Gen 4s within the past two years. Still rockin a Gen 3 G35 as my duty gun. I will never change it. It’s been 100 percent, reliable so Gen 3 really lives up to their slogan “perfection.” I see no need to go Gen 5.

[@theshapeexists]

eddiet204 I own all sorts of guns, but when i go looking for a new glock to add to the collection, it's usually a gen 3. They're the pinnacle of ruggedness imo.

[@hardtarget2359]

eddiet204 How do you like the G35? I have a G22 and love that gun. Can you get a OEM 357Sig barrel for the 35?

[@eddiet204]

I’ve run a G35 for almost 20 years and find that it gives me added accuracy at distance (60-75 yards). I ride motors and we are not authorized to have ARs on our bikes, so I want the ability to reach out as far as possible. I run a Gen 3 G22 as my Home Gun with a .357 sig barrel. I also have conversion barrels for 9mm/357 sig for my G35s. The Work gun stays at work as a .40 and my competition gun (which is my original G35 that’s been relegated to competition now) has the Lone Wolf 9mm conversion, Wheaton trigger, and 3.5 connector. Hands down, my favorite all around work/sport gun. That being said, P229 is my off duty carry just because I think Sigs are cool :) 357 Sig conversion for G35 is available through Lone Wolf.

[@kain7134]

eddiet204 I'm the same way, gen 3 g23, had it for a while absolutely love it

[@torinoracing]

Nutnfancy..I want to stop and say thank you for never wavering on how you do your vids. I like that you can make a 5 min subject and make it 45 min vid. I actually just like listing to you and your thought process about all this gear. Just an all round good dude. Thanks!

[@Prepper319]

We love you nutnfancyyyy❤️ I’ve been watching you since 08’ Thank you so much for all the work you do , your advice and wisdom has saved the lives of many people in my life . Again thank you 🙏

[@UserConn]

This is by far my favorite Glock Gen. I have the 17 and the 19. Best triggers of all generations and barrel accuracy much improved.

[@DannyWalker1949]

I'm an 0l' retired Police Officer and I carried a Glock model 22 for most of my years in Law Enforcement. And, I have another exact same model 22 I bought a few years back and its just as good as the first one. I like the sites on mine I did change them out on my Police gun to Hiney Nightsites for a reason. To be able to see better in the dark. I like the Triggers on both of my pistols. (we could Not change any thing to the function of our duty guns by law back then) I Love the finger Grips on mine too. It just Fit's me. I like and Use ETS Mag's in both of my pistols and they feed perfectly. ( I hear that some people Don't like them) I could go on & on but I won't, except I will always keep my Glocks at hand. I liked your Review nutnfancy. =)

[@newcoyote]

Good timing. I bought my first handgun ever recently (in Canada, a lot of hoops t jump through) and shot it today. Glock .40 G4. Put a couple hundred rounds through it and it performed without flaw.Sidenote. I cannot get over how Utah looks almost identical to my area of British Columbia in the Thompson/Okanagan.

[@6548ww]

its nice to see someone review a full size Pistol like the G17 instead of the already reviewed G19 I've already seen 30 F**n videos on

[@journeyquest1]

And they are sooooo much different from each other. Ugh.

[@jasonziter]

Thanks for the vid Nutn. I own one Glock. G4 26. Love it. No changes on the horizon for me. EDC rotation includes : Glock 26 G4, FN 5.7 MKII, Sphinx SDP (full aluminum frame / grip version). Generally tend to lean towards the SDP. I just shoot it significantly more accurate and consistently more accurate than the rest. I think the weight helps stabilize me.

[@Sanctified_EDC_Gear]

I fully trust your reviews very much . Thanks again

[@glocktown21]

Great Video! Unfortunately, I live in the Peoples Republic of California, we are not a FREE state and Glock 5's are not approved nor are 4th... We are stuck with 3rd generations and will be going back to single shot Pirate style 1700th century pistols soon... DAMMM... I wish I could buy a NEW glock 19 5th generation!!!!

[@dylanwatkins1019]

Justin Watts that's alright 3rd Gen is the best Gen

[@gunwrites6222]

RESIST!!

[@timpczman]

the commies control the import into Kalifornia...so unconstitutional.

[@atilliar]

You can! And all for the low low price of a new house in a free state! :P

[@glocktown21]

Yes, I trust my life to Glock and the 3rd generations Rock!

[@rayray8238]

I picked one up a while ago. Im glad the finger groves are gone on the grip and I'm glad they didn't change much. Still reliable, still shoots correct after 100 s of rounds, and still pops when I pull the trigger. Keep your gen 4 if you got one, unless your buying for the first time. When it's right, why change.

[@coachhcrowder]

I absolutely wanted Glock tv. Watched this vid multiple times during quarantine

[@gbdeamer]

Thanks for doing this! Glad you were able to take it into the desert and not just to an indoor range. I always enjoy when the desert "exposes" some guns, but the Gen 5 seemed to do just fine. ALSO, I THINK IT'S ABOUT TIME YOU GOT FEDERAL AS A (partial) AMMO SPONSOR!!! I appreciate the desire to appear unbiased at all times, but if you use an ammo company like Federal as your baseline when you do your testing you'll always have a consistent benchmark to work with. It's also ammo that most of us can get and shoot on a regular basis so we'll be able to do apples to apples comparisons to your results. I think you should absolutely continue/expand your relationships with Gunnie's and Federal.

[@David-lj8zo]

Nice to hear Federal partially sponsoring the project!

[@bobyluppo]

Just got gen 5 G17 mos, aaaaand it rocks. My firs Glock and I love it. Super easy to shoot. Trigger was okay, but I got about 700 rounds through it, and I would say it definitely got a lot smoother. Definitely 5 stars. ( thanks for another good video!!! )

[@armstrong2052]

I will keep my g17 gen 4 but thanks for the review

[@GUNSnARMYRN]

Glad to see you still plugging through the family grief Nutn. Thank you and as always praying for you and the family. Keep the faith and when god wants you to add back to the family you will.

[@Moujyu22]

GUNSnARMYRN Did I miss something important?

[@4rdF1Hunny]

Yeah, what's this?

[@Larry-gs8gb]

Much like the Porsche 911,evolution and constant improvement instead of change for the sake of change;or to follow a short lived trend.You may not like them ,but you have to admit they are always near the top of the heap,if not the standard others are judged by.

[@ggyeet5540]

Damn right

[@coyotebrown2294]

Love the finger grooves being gone, accuracy is better in both my 5th gens, triggers a bit better, finish-pretty but yeah it's already wearing off the high spots on my 17. Overall good update IMHO.

[@KM_1983]

Glock needs to come out with it’s own rifle platform. Not a chassis for a pistol but a dedicated rifle! That would sell!!

[@threesons270]

When reviews talk about the new color magazine follower as a major point of the Gen 5 then you know Glock has zero innovation

[@Murphy82nd]

It's a point, but it's not a major point. Given that a number of manufacturers are doing it in recent years I don't see it as a negative. Just sort of a me too. Frankly nothing is really "innovative" anymore. They're all polymer famed striker fired pistols with Browning tilting barrels.

[@borkwoof696]

Nobody on the pistol market is bringing true innovation.

[@Wowthatsfail]

N weezy innovation? Like Smart guns? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@Plainsimple67]

Murphy82nd I HONESTLY THINK HANDGUN MANUFACTURERS ARE NOT GONNA GO TOO CRAZY ON INNOVATIONS, THE PEOPLE ARE NOT WILLING TO PAY TOO MUCH FOR GUNS ANYMORE AND MANUFACTURERS TRYING TO MAXIMISE PROFIT.

[@tylercurtis441]

unless they changed the geometry of the follower and changed the color, plz keep an open mind ;p

[@aarondickerson1418]

Nutnfancy thanks for all you do.. I too share a love for outdoors ,motorcycles,guns ,knifes ,watches ! Every product I've purchased you gave great reviews rock!

[@-John-Doe-]

Honestly, the PPQ set the bar for me.

[@Jrsydevil7]

Great video, the reason for the Gen 5 Glock 17 and 19 is basically the FBI 17M and 19M. All of the changes that were done were because the FBI said that we'll give you $86M to make this gun. They went from a 2pin gun (Gen 1/Gen 2) to a 3pin gun (Gen 3/Gen 4) back to the 2pin gun (Gen 5). They took off the finger grooves, beveled the front end of the slide like a 26/27/33/34/35 slides for reholstering, nDLC coating, beveled or flared the magwell, the orange follower was to see if the magazine was empty, which if the slides locked to the rear and there's no brass hangin out the side of the gun than guess what it's empty. I might be wrong but I think that they used to use hexagonal and polygonal rifling and they changed the standard rifling and they did put a target crown on their match barrel. Ambi slide stop lever, I believe that they changed the trigger bar, and they changed the old firing pin safety plunger to a Glock "42/43" style plunger. They stayed with the Gen 4 "SF" or short frame and back straps but they did give you a smooth "combat" style trigger on both the 17 and 19 vs a serrated "target" trigger like on all of the Glock 19's before. I think they also changed the takedown latch or lever. The spring I think is a traditional spring and not a leaf style spring.

[@Chris-yy5pj]

Glock is like call of duty. They make the same thing over and over with different names

[@Chris-yy5pj]

Glock is Austrian for hi point

[@Murphy82nd]

Right.

good job on getting an ammo sponsor nutn

[@TSGEnt]

9:35 You just took me down memory lane. MD F-4 Phantom is my all time fav. I grew up during the VN era and watched the aircraft dominate in the war theatre. I have had my share of F-4 models growing up. I recall watching the Blue Angles at Moffett NAB. and in adult years supporting Moffett NAB as a G Contractor. BTW, I recall those F-4s breaking the sound barrier over the skies, and houses, in Mt View, CA. Not so anymore. Too many windows to repair I guess. :)

[@TheAvkdutch]

Nice job federal!

[@Powernoodle_]

Earth to Glock: give us a factory 8-round version of the 42/43 for concealed carry. Massive seller.

[@Xlac]

Todd. H. Agreed. That’s what I am waiting for. The 43X’s grip is just too long for a backup gun.

[@someguy5444]

That’s played out even back 2 years ago when you made that ass comment, make a single stack 10m in the Glock 36 frame and make a 40cal Glock 43.

[@TWDxKILL3R]

Just bought a Gen 5 Glock 34 and im excited...I honestly feel the beveled magazine well and ambi slide release are very good additions..... as far as the new “marksman barrel” I haven’t shot mine yet to see.... but so far so good

[@ClangandBang]

The F4 is one of my favorite airplanes. My dad supported and worked on them in Vietnam in the Air Force.

[@rustychains1897]

Looked at the new Glock 19, but bought the S&W 2.0 Compact. Don't regret my decision at all.

[@DynoSauR4Truth]

Rusty Chains I did the same thing. I was considering getting a new Gen5 19 but with so few improvements I just couldn't get excited about it. The new M&P 2.0 compact is a great gun with much better ergonomics and looks a lot better too. Cheaper and will have a lot better trigger after I put in an Apex kit in it.

[@The-Homecook-0000]

DynoSauR ...why would you buy a gun that you have to change the trigger after you buy it....

[@DynoSauR4Truth]

That's a good question. Maybe it's because most guns on the market don't come with good factory triggers. It's only been a recent change that some guns are coming with good triggers from the factory. That is a good thing about Glock's. Their lower weight trigger disconnector is much cheaper for a trigger kit than most trigger kits for most guns out there. With most Glock's you don't even know when you've actually come up against the wall with the trigger. Just keep pulling and it eventually fires. With my other M&P that has the Apex everyday carry kit you know exactly when it hits the wall and the next little bit of effort is going to cause it to fire. Maybe you need to try shooting a gun with a nice trigger kit and then you'll know why it's nice to have one. I put trigger kits in my Glock's when I had them too. They also need it.

[@darrell058]

I went from my mk25 to a gen4 G19. I have to say I'm very happy. I love the 226, it was my first firearm. I had it for a month now. I rented the p320 compact and a G19. Grip, function and reliability were my deciding factors. The 320 compact 9mm , I could not keep a good grip on it. I would need to carry it with extended mags. Glock fit my hand. At ten yards and out to maybe 15 yards indoors I shot them both the same. Love the stock trigger. I love Sig triggers as well. You definitely tell the difference. Anyways, love the video.

[@godzilla1463]

I always like your college stories Nutn. I'm currently a junior in college and I got my tactical carbine (AK-74) and my go to pistol (cz-p07) ready to defend friends and family. Keep up the awesome work Nutn!

[@nutnfancy]

A by request video review by my subs, we took the Glock 5th Gen out for lots of shooting. I say Glock should have done this update about 4 or 5 years ago to be competitive...but better late than never. Some are disappointed that certain features are omitted...this is discussed. I draw conclusions on whether the new things on the Glock 5th Gen add up to a "must buy" for you the gun consumer. You might be surprised at the answer. -nutnfancy

[@jfrog1979]

[@jaredketchmark1217]

Just a question out of curiosity. Approximately how much money's worth of ammo does tnp shoot in a year?

[@rowdyron4111]

I worked on the QF-4's at Holloman AFB! That overhead picture was one of our jets.

[@jtec99]

nutnfancy Nutn... do you own the land that you run your drills on sir?

[@jonathanrogers9961]

What you see on the side is not Tenifer. My understanding is both Tenifer and Melonite are similar processes that harden the surfaces of the metal, I believe both are dips in a salt/chemicle bath at high heat kind of like a modern case hardening. A paint or coating is put over that in the slide. The barrel is tennifer/melonited as well in the older models, compare that to the coating on the slide.

[@kirkmooneyham]

The newest variation on the G17 Gen 5 has eliminated that little front cutout at the bottom of the magwell, and also beveled the front edge of the gripframe to match the bevel on the slide. They also added front slide serrations. Minor, but nice to see that Glock DOES listen to customer feedback, as those three small things were complained about by reviewers, and regular buyers, alike.

[@herrgodfrey9563]

I love my VP9. Excellent trigger and easily one of the most accurate 9mm striker fired pistols I've ever handled.

[@codymorrow5156]

Thanks Nutnfancy for all the hard work you put into your reviews. They have helped me out A LOT on purchasing decisions. I wish that manufactures would give you more support. Rugers comment to you several years ago has caused me to steer clear of their products ever since. Keep up the good work! Thanks Again!

Oh man... year 11... that’s a lot of years I’ve been watching lol love the vids.

[@michaelwayne8685]

I carry a G17 Gen4 for work. Only reason I got a gen5 was because I wanted a G19 for off duty carry and with blue label pricing they're the same. So I was like "screw it, why not?". I've actually been pleasantly surprised by the trigger. Enjoy the lack of finger grooves. Aside from that, nothing else seems like any drastic improvement. I'd probably care more if I was a lefty.

[@kentyannayon3741]

I think Beretta deserves their spot with Sig and Glock, so does S&W. Colt's a little too old school and great for second cool, but those four have been very consistent in delivering modern GTW product that you can depend on. The biggest difference is what the end user wants, and they each offer something a little different that'll fit different preferences. But they're all good and deliver on the absolute need in a side arm: reliability and durability.

[@jghuf5674]

I had nothing but good things to say about Glocks until last week. My Gen4 22 with about 1500-2000 rounds through it had, quite literally, two-dozen FTF's, one of which was a class-3 stoppage. After some experimentation, the culprit was the X300 mounted to the gun. The Gen4 was supposed to have fixed this problem. Incredibly disappointed, and glad it happened in a the sterility of a training environment.

[@EIPStudiosOhio]

In an internet world of massive negative remarks of the gen5, I am glad to see a NutNFancy desert review GRV of this pistol. Seems like the gen5 survived the curse of the desert, makes me take another look at this, as a potential addition to the collection...

[@eXdXgXe4life]

I'm glad the barrel was changed, because now it's easier to clean after shooting my lead cast bullets.

[@jackrock1313]

Nutnfancy you up at this time? Its 10pm ...lol The gold standard of all reviews

[@jbabikjb]

Wow, bout time. An honest review. So laughable when I hear people say the beveled front makes it easier to holster. Great review nutn.!!!

[@kentyannayon3741]

I'm okay with the F-4s being blown up as drones. I met many aviators who flew the type at university. They loved their jet, but it was a tool, and we preserved a lot of them, but any tool needs to serve a purpose until it's use ends. Many went on to save lives as ejection trainers and targets to prove the effectiveness of weapons that would save oncoming aviator's lives. That's a really good legacy for any fighter to ultimately serve after it becomes obsolete on the front line. The F-4 became a legend and served it out until the end in US service. The airframe likely would still have life with avionics upgrades if it weren't for the F-15, F-16, and F-18, but that's the way of things. Years down the line we'll look back and recognize how good they were for their era, but aerodynamics is a science that we keep improving on because it's a very practical science to invest in.

[@colins5142]

glad to see Federal hopped on board for your vid!!

[@wesleystr48]

Hey Nutn I've been watching for a really long time now. I learned so much from you. I talked to PFI dude a little and he was so incredibly nice and passionate. I just want to thank you for everything you do. I know you might have some hard times with money now because of the choices youtube has made. I just want to tell you to keep following your dreams. I think all we have in this life is ourselfs and our dreams. Keep chasing your dreams. You have a beautiful family, keep being a role model father for me. I want to be a good dad too someday.

[@chrisf247]

Sad to hear about the phantoms, but US aviation museums and preservation programs are way better than others. The state of US armored vehicle preservation, on the other hand, is pretty tragic! Many variants just no longer exist anymore as they've been scrapped or rusted away.

Got a gen 4 over the gen 5 about a month ago. I love my gen 4, no regrets. In my opinion gen 4 is still the best for many reasons.

[@UziNineMillomeetah]

The rail is 1913 spec now and a little bigger all around. I couldn't figure out why the gun appeared to be a little chunkier upfront when I first got it. Some holsters like my 5.11 thumbdrive won't take the Gen 5 because of this.

[@Ghostrider-71]

Great video. Not enough “good” differences from my gen 3 G17 and G19 to switch over to the Gen 5. The G46 looks interesting though. Waiting for your video on it when you get to review the G46.

[@archiepreston6503]

2nd gen is where its at. I know it don't have all the fancy stuff like rails and what not but it's simple and reminds me of a simpler time. If I were to use a glock for home defense I'd use a 2nd generation glock 22 and my maglite at a flashlight / close range defense tool. I don't have access to glocks as I live in the UK however I have shot many different kinds of glocks when I was in the US and the gen 2 just fits for me.

[@jnightman9281]

I've seen other 5min reviews but always appreciate the NutNfancy glock TV

[@pplebite8844]

As long in the tooth as they were, the Phantoms are still a favorite of mines. My old man serviced them over in Zweibrucken (W.Ger), and hearing those old RF-4s from Canadian housing, and flying over, rattling the windows...'Murica!

[@captsam54]

Yea... Just ordered one.. $536.88 shipped... Glock 19 5 Gen.... Going to RMR it...

[@airborneivan]

Hey nutnfancy. Being that you have THE most in depth reviews I'd love to see you do a review on the M&P 2.0 compact 9mm the. Follow up with a detailed comparison video between the G19 and the 2.0 compact. That would be awesome. People have tried to do these type of reviews but I think you'd be the one to get it just right.

[@J.E.Taylor]

I'd figure it'd be a similar review to his S&W M&P Mod 2 "Gun Got Right" video with the long slide version in FDE. I don't know if the Compact would change anything since controls and such should be the same. Maybe he will sometime though. I haven't had my Compact long but I do like mine.

[@samuelpope7798]

I used to avoid buying Glocks because of their not fully supported chamber design (which is unsafe to shoot reloads in) and the polygonal rifled barrels that are unfriendly to cast ammo loads. Thanks to the cast bullet powder coating trick the polygonal rifling is no longer an issue. I now would generally prefer a hammer forged polygonal barrels due to reduced fouling with any load. So I have changed my mind about Glocks and now I only avoid them due to their unsupported chamber design. Seriously, I think Glocks are great pistols and a great value as long as you don't intend to use reloaded ammo. I have actually recommended them to friends that are "getting into" guns and are shopping for a first pistol. They really are great pistols and It's an excellent way to keep them from mooching reloaded ammo from me. ( and thanks to the Lee Precision "bulge buster" die I can still save and reload their Glocked up brass for my guns.) Yes they can be re-barreled but in re-barreled form are they any more reliable and affordable than their very excellent competitors that were actually designed from the get go to work with full support? Are there any hammer forged polygonal riffled aftermarket barrels with full chamber support available?

First thing I saw: Cold Steel Espada! Sick! Haven't seen it in a while. Looking at your Gen 5 you reviewed, the slide stop/release is already showing wear/tear after how many rounds you shot? Disappointing. I can still see you buying this later down the road as a cast member for current reviews. Like a special edition or something different. I also foresee Glock transitioning the Gen 5 to other members. Thank you Federal for helping out if they're listening. Thanks for the videos and support Nutn! Quad Owl Out!

XD. He's actually is going to do the Beretta 92 FS. Just got one last month to put to good use with my first ever CCW permit. I love it. Being a person that has worked with heavy equipment for about a decade, the gun feels like nothing while carrying it. When in hand, I do feel that weight but.. I like it. It has gives the impression that you have something solid. Same with the safety. I use the slide release so no problems there. Totally satisfied and might buy another. Maybe an M9A3 someday~ 👍

Me too ,the g17 is my favorite .it's more comfortable

[@CazClocker52]

Just found your channel - subscribed. I like your presentation style - plenty of meat, no fluff. I'm a Glock man, but I'm still a new shooter (3 years) with plenty to learn still. Rock on!

I bought a "base model" Glock 19 Gen5 recently (March 2021) for $560 after tax and here is what I discovered shortly before purchasing: - It DOES have front slide serrations now - It does NOT have the mag well cutout at the bottom - It still lacks finger grooves, which I am indifferent to regardless, because of my average sized, uh, hands.

Came for the Glock 5th, stayed for Glock TV. I missed you, Nutn.

I was stationed at Holloman AFB and we supported drone tests as a part of the 6585th Test Group.

Love the feature length! Thanks man!

[@LimeTimeHD]

Nutn, thank you so much for making this a feature length! I was crossing my fingers haha. I liked, favorited, and will no joke watch will end up watching it over a dozen times as I often do with most of your videos. Keep up the great work and I hope yall are doing well! :)

[@ericmartin2470]

great review nutnfancy although i'm still leaning to the G19 as a "do it all" sidearm. just finished my first FrankenAR build based on your recommendations for an SPR. thanks for all of your hard work and helping me make easy "high value" choices.

[@howardharaway2259]

Just bought my very first Glock today from a bunch of great guys at Tanners Sports in Jamison,Pa. after refusing all these years to play MONKEY SEE,MONKEY DO. I am a proud American and tried always to buy made in the USA 🇺🇸. However, this purchase today is NOT to add to my pistol collection. I am going to purchase tonight from ACC. the moduler kit to turn my Glock into a carbine. PLUS......I want to get all my firearms bought just incase you know who wins ?

I just recently bought a glock gen 3 17l. As someone who used to be whole heartedly against glock this model checked some really awesome boxes. Its long slide which is second cool its a glock which is eh. High cap 9mm with one of the biggest aftermarket in the world. Its a range toy maybe a shtf. Currently i enjoy it. That all being said the improvements gen to gen are minimal in my opinion. My gen 3 feels no different than any other glock i pick up.

[@rtaggs8178]

I have 2 gen 5's, a 45 and a 17. Better lockup, better accuracy, and no finger grooves. All in all, far more accurate out of the box than past generations.

[@ryanvargas4889]

I’ve put together so many F-4 models...always love the Blue Table.

[@wesleyfrix7979]

When you get half way through a nutnfancy video and realize it inevitably has to end.... So sad. Another great one for the books

[@n7565j]

Might have to take another look at the Glock... My buddy had the 17 with the finger grooves, and those stupid grooves caused me to go to the XD instead. Those grooves hit dead center of my fingers, and by the 3rd mag they were digging into my tendons, which was quite uncomfortable. Glad they've removed them :-)

[@kain7134]

Brian W the gen 3 was the last model with those, I would definitely recommend it

[@tonymachuca9471]

grow a pair. my 8 and 15 yr old nieces dont complain anout that stupid shit.

[@jamesmorton9389]

If it indexed incorrectly, then why did you buy it?

[@kristopherfrootloops6714]

Thats why theres 3 sizes. Durrrrrrr RTF just shreds hands. Ergonomics is what new guns are all about. The big thing that sucked about polymer guns at first is because you couldnt get a set of hogues on them. Gotta enjoy them when you can get them. HK P30 series is my fav. Hold one and itll feel like a extension of yourself. True story.

[@thealabamagunnerchannel3451]

nutnfancy really enjoy all your reviews on gun and knives. keep em coming. I been a fan for a couple of years and will be as long as you keep em coming.

[@garytacia7551]

Funny you discount the value of the back strap. I have to use the back strap on my gen 4 34 to avoid slide bite. Same with M&P 2.0. Back straps are extremely important to me. Getting by hand cut up takes the fun right out of shooting. I wear a large glove but can get my hand in to a medium, so I don't have excessively large hands. Its just that I always try to drive my hand as high as I can for MY best possible grip. The medium dove tail works perfect for me so I can drive my hand high w/o thinking about it being to high. I don't think I'm alone, otherwise why would so many manufactures be offering them. Great job BTW. Love your vids.

[@theadventuresofjavier8698]

Love the F4 phantom model to the lower right...have you flown one sir? Thanks for the review. Unfortunately we are stuck with gen 3 here in kalifornia. Not that the gen 3 is a bad gun.my gen 3 17 lives bedside along with my xd 45 and lcr 22 for the wife. Wow over a decade with TNP..i salute you sir.

[@scottrhodes7783]

Your one of the true unbiest reviewers left on KZbin nutnfancy! Keep up the good Work!!!

I work on the drone program in Panama City, FL. We have moved on to QF-16's but there plenty of QF-4's sleeping with the fishes. lol
