New Glock G45

[Sam]

Although I don't currently own any Glocks (or anything plastic or striker fired, weirdly), ..

I had a Gen 5 19 for a while and it ran great until the trigger bar started disintegrating and the trigger pull got crunchy. I presume my problem has been addressed. I might have to look at one of the G19 MOS when one pops up around here.

You sir are a hater !

While I am waiting to hear back from Glock I am curious if any of you G45 owners have the same issue or if your pistol has the same groove/channel. I have attached a picture of the channel/groove for reference, any feedback is much appreciated! Attachment 54070

Mine has that groove and went 250 for 250 in it's first outing this past weekend. with Winchester 124gr NATO ball and Federal 147gr +P HST.

Glock contacted me today, going forward all 9mm pistols will have that notch. The rep told me it was designed to help with the erratic ejection some pistols were having. Have you had any issues clearing the chamber by hand? My pistol was hanging up when performing clearance drills.

Interesting. My 19x doesn’t have it but my gen5 19 mos does.

No issue at all.

Recall the G19X is just the Glock MHS submission sans manual safety, not a true Gen 5

Mine has the notch. Never noticed it. Glock 19x does not have it.

My G45 has been a good shooter so far. Picked it up last Friday and have put just over 200 rounds through it as of yesterday.

100% so far. Good, consistent ejection. Mostly CCI Brass Blazer 115 gr and some Federal HST 124 gr.

Maybe this explains why the these new models are absolutely slinging brass compared to the G19X.

Good to see they are continuing to roll in the updates.

Yeah my G45 slings brass to about 3:30 o'clock at 10 or more feet.

My G19.4 burbles them out from 2-5 o'clock from 0-5 feet.

I have a Gen5 G19 MOS, and it ejects brass quite briskly. I watched a G45 shoot last weekend, and it hurled brass like chicken bones out of a double-wide.
