Glock 19 gen 5 accuracy

[silvery37]

I thought some of you might find this interesting or helpful. Took my new gen 5 G19 to the range. It’s all stock expect for a trijicon RMR on top. This is a 10 round group of gold dot at 25 yards off hand. I’m pretty sure I could pull off a 2” group on a lucky day. I felt and called the two shots that went low. I’ve been very impressed with the gen 5 accuracy so far. I have another gen 5 g19 that has irons sights on it and it shot similar sized groups.

After 200 rounds through it the trigger breaks at 4.5-5lbs depending where I have the gauge positioned. Initial take up is 2lbs then a rolling break for the last 3lbs.

That's the kind of accuracy I am seeing at 25 meters using OEM sights and 0.75 power safety glasses. In my experience the Gen 5 Glock 19 is noticeably more accurate than previous generations.

Nice shooting....I suspect its the Indian not the arrow :-)

I’m pretty convinced it’s a 2” gun. I’d be pretty ecstatic if I could manage a 1.5” group. But it takes some special star alignment for me to pull off 10 perfect trigger pulls in a row. I was thinking about trying some of the Wilson combat 9mm match ammo. If anyone has suggestions for high quality match ammo please let me know. It’s hard to really know without testing different ammunition and that stuff isn’t cheap.

This is what I'm thinking. I've got the same gun and I'm not shooting those groups. David

Side note, I go through so many black markers drawing circles for my students on targets, I never thought to use spray paint. Seems so obvious now.

I am in the verge of breaking 90+ on 50 yard bulls eyes with my 17.5. There is a significant increase in accuracy in the gen 5.

Hornady XTP bullets have been known for very very good accuracy. I haven’t run any yet but I have some in the pile for a rainy day.

It is definitely better than the Gen 4 trigger. Great shooting, dude.
