Range Day: Glock 45(gen5) unboxing, overview and field strip

[@kingsix2000]

17, not 16 ;)

[@tr7287]

kingsix2000 17 + 1 in the chamber = 18 rounds of the freedom.

[@jasongibler408]

For the most part you made a very helpful video for new glock owners. The only thing I saw that you got wrong was the mag size. If you look at the back of the mags you'll see that they hold 17 rounds and not just 16, so the overall compacity of the pistol is 17 rounds in the mag plus 1 chambered. Other than that very nicely done video. I look forward to watching more of your channel.

[@Fireoncityy]

It's not a 19x and 17 hybrid. A 19x is a 19 slide with a 17 grip. The 45 is the 19x with a flared magwell. Front slide serrations and black. Also as far as I can find the 45 has the option for stock night sights. It's also 17 rounds not 16. 🙈

[@looseskrew5560]

Im glad somone said it 😂😂 bro had 75% of the information wrong 😂😂😂

[@wcpalmer3]

Man I watched a video and the guy was pretty good I thought but I couldn’t get my glock 45 apart until I watched you video and just like that my glock45 was disassembled thanks 🙏🏽

[@f_in9510]

It’s listed as a compact on the Glock website. Just wanted to add that just in case someone was looking at this review before they purchased their glock45

[@unclemonkey808]

17 rounds not 16. Inaccurate information too

[@Citizen2ACitizenLLC]

First time viewer and now a long term subscriber! Love the video..... thanks for sharing

[@mrjpmd424]

Good vid man! Keep it up Notes: - Guide rod: Many manufacturers, to include S&W, use polymer guide rods. Glock started using dual captured guide rod and springs since the Glock 26 was introduced and became standard for Glocks with Gen 4s. - Glock 45 is a mix of G19 and G17 (slide length of G19 with grip length of G17), G19x came first via a similar concept and it is based off their MHS submission to the Army. - Not all Gen5s have front serrations, only the 45 along with the 19, 17, and 34 Gen 5 MOS models (and the limited summer Gen 4 runs) This could change moving forward with the new Glocks presumed to be announced in 5 days - The infamous U shaped sights have been the same since the first Glock 17 came to market. They now offer three dot night sights and Ameriglo Bold night sights from factory for a bit of extra cash. Cheers!

mrjpmd424 thank you for the feedback and thanks for the extra info.

@@The717Outlaw Great purchase. The Glock 45 looks fantastic. By the way you got three 17 capacity magazines with your pistol. Hope that you have lots of fun with that polymer beauty.

[@brianduke80]

Enjoyed the honest review! Having the 17 size frame with 19 length slide! All my Gen4 17 mags fit well!

[@l3gtk1la3]

I wish i were in America😂😂

[@jamesfrost7465]

Heh heh I bought my first Glock today and it's a G45 also! That's why I'm watching this video. Right on man, I'm all ears you have my attention. Now show me what I bought. Thank you. Nice, I didnt know I had a cleaning rod but I found it. I didnt know those were handle grip extensions. Like I said this is my first Glock and I havent read the instructions yet. Now let me find your next video about it. Thank you again.

[@timmyg000420]

Very good video outside of some mistakes such as number of rounds. I would suggest in the future that you do not flag yourself so much during the video. Gun safety should always be reinforced especially with so many new people out there exercising their 2nd amendment rights. Keep up the good work. Good luck and be safe out there!

[@keanu.3]

I own both a Glock 19 Gen 5 & Glock 45 love them both 💯

[@positivereactions4044]

The barrel as you mentioned is not a standard barrel it’s the new glock rifled marksman barrel

[@Dustykeybkards]

Positive Reactions in all honesty i can’t tell the difference. I can shoot the gen 5 19 and the Glock 45 exactly the same

[@jorgericosax]

Purchased one today for 450 st sportsman's 🙌

Wow grats. I just bought mine the other day twice as much..

[@manhalfamazing00]

Thanks man. Just bought one nice review.

[@ronaldgillespie9193]

It's a Hybrid between Glock 17 and Glock 19, not 19X. It's a really nice pistol

[@ronaldgillespie9193]

It also holds 17 not 16

[@ghostlead1001]

16+1 capacity. I don't know what you have because mine are 17 rnd mags

[@davoncorrie63]

It's actually a 17+1

[@renaldokhan5846]

It's a mix between 19 & 17 not 19x & 17 and they're 17 round mags not 16.

[@doorjam8793]

This is better than the glock 19x because the g19x will not feed gen 5 glock 17 mags, unless you cut the lip off of the bottom of the g19x grip/frame

[@juancortes5535]

And how would i go about doing that? The Gen 5 restrictions is lthe only thing thats stopping me from buying a 19x

[@ricklavoie3703]

Can you use the 19x mags in the model 45

[@The717Outlaw]

I will have to double check on that. As far as I know they are compatible due to being double stack 9mm mags.

[@The717Outlaw]

They are compatible.

[@XCaPTainClipzX]

Have you noticed any of these problems with the 45? -frame flexing/bending - Sticky/heavy trigger - Trigger bar rubbing against frame and slide stop - Slide stop/frame protruding when firing and dry firing. I’m on the fence between the 45 and a Gen 4 19 I’m leaning towards the 45 but reliability issues will cause me to lose interest

[@The717Outlaw]

CptnXClp2 I haven’t had any problems with mine, I’ve carried it for a while now. Go to the range and run it no hiccups. I would say if you get one only run brass case ammo. I ran aluminum case once and it did jam, ran brass and works like a dream.

[@ivanwilson8038]

I purchased my Glock 45 about 2 months ago. My build is for home defense so reliability was also my highest priority. I've put about 1500 rds through it. No issues

[@XCaPTainClipzX]

Daycow045 I purchased one two weeks ago lol

[@ryangulihur4657]

CptnXClp2 how is it??

[@XCaPTainClipzX]

Ryan Gulihur I have the 19 gen 3, 26 Gen 3 & 4 and the 45, 45 is by far the best Glock I own

[@willedelmuth1132]

Thank you

[@carllove3705]

I didn't see any footage of your "Range Day" that you posted in the title.

[@The717Outlaw]

Carl Love kzbin.info/www/bejne/fGarYZyJftqYeqs this is the part 2. It’s easier to split the videos instead of making one 20-30 minute video that nobody will watch.

[@peachfuzz1978]

When are they going to make the mardle45 with a RMR cut?

[@The717Outlaw]

RomanTech I’ll have to do some searching. It would be nice with an RMR

[@chetwilson4162]

Mine is 17+ 1 you must live in Idaho.

[@lesfez4243]

Fun fact: te glock 45 has a 9mm barrel

[@timweb1510]

Your info is wrong

[@The717Outlaw]

Yeah I rushed into this video when I did the unboxing and first look. Made some minor mistakes. But if you see the next range video of testing I corrected myself and did live fire review.

[@kashkartel9883]

Can it fit 30 round glock 19 mags

[@The717Outlaw]

As far as I know you should be able to since it’s a double stack 9mm.

[@ryukimura7302]

Wait wat?? 16 rounds mag?

[@ramonbenitez4093]

Do your homework before uploading a video. This way you will be respected and not look uninformed.
