Besides the plethora of YouTube review videos of the Gen5s in both 17 & 19 showing no BTF, anectodally i put 300 rounds through mine with a 10 year old that had never shot a gun before, I experienced consistent ejection, no BTF. My Gen4 19 needed an apex extractor to stop BTF, my 26 Gen4 still BTFs with most range ammo and my 21 Gen4 BTFs with some range ammo as well (17 Gen4 & G43 have never given me BTF). At this point, I'd buy a Gen5 with confidence, if for no other reason that Glock seeks to have fixed the BTF issue with the Gen5s (I'd be curious to learn if Glock tweaked the extractor and/or ejector).Originally Posted by Greg Bell

Is it my old eyes, but the does the front of the frame look beveled? If so, i would not smile if in a few months Glock bevels the Gen5's after i get one as current.

Sure looks to me like the beveled the leading edge of the frame.

The Gen 5 looks idiotic not being beveled - like the owner stuck too short of a slide on it. Just laziness from big G.

Looks neat. If it works, great. I would rather not have to pull the trigger to disassemble my pistol. I'm pretty paranoid about about dry firing before disassembly, but I think that's a good thing. Getting too comfortable with a firearm probably leads to more ND's. So perhaps I'm better off with my G19?
