New Glock event December 10th

[Firefly]

Glock 44 = full-size gun with a rotating Barrel.

Glock 46 = Compact gun with a rotating barrel.

My body is ready.

At least I can hope.

Rotating barrels are kinda gimmicky.

Like the Cougar and PX4 happened and went nowhere

Should they go somewhere?

I had a PX4 and it was an incredibly flat shooting little gun. Glock used the Rotating barrel in the 46 to lower the barrel axis even further so the guns should shoot great. If done correctly they should be more durable as well because they have symmetrical locking rather than just on the top of the barrel hood.


I just don’t think Glock would redesign their operating system for a single German 8000 gun order.

Maybe but I am skeptical.

Fir the right money, yes they will do anything.
I’m sure if I waved enough zeroes in Gastons face, he’d make me 8000 Glocks in .50 AE

If Glock is going to introduce a totally new weapons platform, I'll be amazed and impressed.

If Glock is going to roll out a SBR chassis for standard Glocks, I'll be mildly interested, since I already own two CAA systems, one a SBR system.

If Glock is going to show us Gen 5 models in various calibers (which we could see coming a mile away with the second pin hole in the locking block), I will be bored and unimpressed.

If Glock is going to introduce a totally new weapon platform, I'll be very excited about it and I will wait to let many others do their beta-testing to make sure it actually works reliable through thousands of rounds.

Rotate left or right?

My thought would be a metal-framed or metal-infused frame G34/G35. Because chasing the action pistol thing seems to be the cool thing to do, right now, and Glocks are not as competitive in that sphere as they were five or ten years ago.

(It used to be that everyone who wanted to shoot action pistol bought Glock 34s and 35s. Now they're all buying CZ SP-01s, Walther Q5s, Beretta 92s, and SiG X-Fives.)

To be fair though, that tungsten infused X5 legion frame is amazing.
