I saw you guys have a 17L 10rd. Is that MAP? Doesn’t seem to be working for me
wirelesstortuga@reddit (OP)
Sorry Im not affiliated with any store, just a fellow gundeals enjoyer looking for good prices.
OKGreat86@reddit
I'm super stoked! Mine arrived today! She's definitely thicc. I can't wait to hit the range. Unable to post braggin' pics, but y'all know what they look like.
Furrealyo@reddit
Not a huge Glock fan, but this thing is hard to beat in bear country.
Drew1231@reddit
Looks way too heavy and bulky for any serious back country hunting or backpacking.
No-Bother6856@reddit
Its not as heavy as a 1911.
Drew1231@reddit
All I’m saying is that if you’ve backpacked or done archery elk, you know how ounces make pounds and pounds destroy you at 10,000 ft when you’re climbing a ridge.
7 ounces over a Glock 20 is not worth it in the slightest. It’s 9 ounces over my 9mm that I carry in black bear country.
I guess this is good if you’re sitting in a tree stand all day, but it’s not worth if you’re moving and carrying weight.
No-Bother6856@reddit
Ive been backpacking, but sure if you are comparing it to the 20, the 20 wins on weight. In the grand scheme of handguns carried for bear defense though, I would still consider the 40 to be on the light side.
SuperThiccBoi2002@reddit
I used to not be a Glock fan, but after like 2k plus rounds through mine it's my favorite semi auto, just runs and runs. I either want this or a .357, or a .44 magnum for bear country
No-Bother6856@reddit
Add to that a Mk23 firing 45 super 😉
AnEffortIsBeingMade@reddit
This with a 9mm Dillon barrel is probably your best bet, since it'll give you fierce effect on target with manageable recoil so you can get follow on shots quickly.
But it won't matter. Any chambering works fine as bear defense. The "big gun for bear" meme is just fuddlore.

MiniBanjo@reddit
Not every fudd is wrong
SuperThiccBoi2002@reddit
The "big bear for gun" may be fudd lore, but as someone who often hunts and hikes in active grizzly country i want the biggest fucking gun I can get 😂
Furrealyo@reddit
Def not saying anything negative about them. They are boringly reliable which is exactly why I carry one in bear country.
RyAllDaddy69@reddit
Sheeeiiitttt. Everyone needs a Glawk Fawty.
It doesn’t get any better than using yo Glawk Fawty fo deer hunting.
Harrythehobbit@reddit
But are you professional enough to carry it?
RyAllDaddy69@reddit
You want to see my gas station shootout video?
We call it “The Corner Store”.
You can’t miss me if you see it…I’m the one with his gun above his head jumping up and down shooting. I also have my left arm across my chest towards my left shoulder to block anything coming.
Also, my pants fell down and I shit myself, so there’s that too.
Bearloom@reddit
But are you a fan of huge Glocks?
I_had_the_Lasagna@reddit
My only two Glocks are a g17L and a G20 gen 3 (not an sf). You could say I like huge Glocks.
Record__Scratch@reddit
Glongcks
Airbus320Driver@reddit
Yep! I have this pistol and it's an absolute beast. Very hard hitting with Underwood heavy ammo. And like a mini-rifle with Liberty Civil-defense.
BrapSucker@reddit
This loaded is 44.6 oz. G20 is 1.5 in shorter and 39.9 oz. G19 loaded is 30.2 oz. I love and carry my 20 all the time but sometimes the weight has me carrying a g19 or even a 26 (25.8 oz)
knfr@reddit
Just get GSSF and get this for like 480.
OKGreat86@reddit
GSSF?
knfr@reddit
Glock Shooting Sports Foundation. They give you a coupon for buying at blue label prices from blue label dealers once a year.
OKGreat86@reddit
I went ahead and signed up with them as well. Thanks for the tip. I'm sure I'll be picking up another pistola in the near future anyway.
knfr@reddit
Try and go to a match and have fun!
OKGreat86@reddit
I looked into what was happening in my state (Alaska). Unfortunately, nothing is currently scheduled on their calendar.
OKGreat86@reddit
Well, shit. Good to know. Thanks.
MiniBanjo@reddit
What’s the cheapest we think these will get to? Very tempted as a bear gun. My 29 is okay, but I don’t like the short grip. My pinky needs support and extended mags feel annoying when shooting
wirelesstortuga@reddit (OP)
Unless these dont sell at these prices, it wont go lower, we saw with g34 gen 5, some people waited for lower prices, and then they stopped selling them, when a certain number had sold. Although it possible scalpers bought bulk amounts of the g34 gen 5's to resell once they are discontinued.
Junction91NW@reddit
Pearce Grips probably makes a pinky extension
MiniBanjo@reddit
That’s cool! Thanks for the tip
BrapSucker@reddit
They won't go lower than about this. I talked to my gun guy this is below blue label these will all sell out in a few weeks and be gone forever
The_Garbage_people@reddit
Had to do it. Thanks OP!
wirelesstortuga@reddit (OP)
I think they are selling them super cheap to liquidate even below blue label prices, and like we saw with the g34 gen 5 , once a certain amount sell, they are gone. Hope they send it to you!
The_Garbage_people@reddit
I figured as much. Wanted a 10mm Glock for a while and with them being discontinued this was a no brainer.
thelegendofcarrottop@reddit
I don’t even hike in Bear Country or anything, but I really wanted a Glock 40 Gen 5 MOS for… “offensive” handgun purposes. Similar to the idea behind the Mark 23.
Like if there’s ever a scenario where all you can have is a handgun, a Glock 40 is literally my top choice to solve most problems. 😂👍🏼
LuthersCousin@reddit
Same, but no G40.5 yet. Hopefully soon.
TheJunkman9000@reddit
I sorry but I doubt it will ever get a Gen 5: https://us.glock.com/en/discontinued-models
LuthersCousin@reddit
The way that reads to me is they're discontinuing Gen 4 MOS and replacing with Gen 5.
wirelesstortuga@reddit (OP)
They discontinued even the g34 line for all gens, which is 9mm, so more popular. Seems like they are only going to sell their best selling models and stop the rest. But who knows...
Choppag@reddit
They also discontinued a bunch of Gen 5 models as well though so my understanding is that they're just removing everything that doesn't sell in a large enough volume from their lineup
FreedomFocused_@reddit
What’s the main difference between gen 4 and 5?
ten10thsdriver@reddit
No finger grooves and ambi slide release on the Gen 5.
witheringsyncopation@reddit
Can you catch the slide on either side, or only release?
TheJunkman9000@reddit
They removed the finger grooves from the grip and changed the barrel, supposedly better coating on the slide and the later versions of Gen 5 got front slide serrations.
I for one and glad they got rid of the grooves, my fingers never quite lined up with them.
Hot_Manner_4432@reddit
I removed the MAP, so no email for price anymore! Order it before it OOS!
wirelesstortuga@reddit (OP)
Thanks, it was confusing for some people, who seemed to think it was sold out.
bassmaster_gen@reddit
love mine. perfect for bear country (San francisco)
Brutally-Honest-@reddit
These are being discontinued. Get one know while you can.
DashJackson@reddit
This reminds me so much of the Nintendo zapper.
OKGreat86@reddit
Haha, it kind of does. Just add a lanyard to resemble the cord. I could mess with the dudes on the range if I showed up with it Cerakoted in those colors.

gad885@reddit
This thing shoots so soft with standard 10 mm plinking ammo
Sock-Lettuce@reddit
Glock 20 or Glock 40 for bear country?
AMBUSCHH@reddit
40
888Corsa@reddit
you don't think the Underwoods leave the 20 quick enough?
el_chino_del_mal@reddit
Idk about the other guy, but i believe in extra mass to offset as much recoil for slightly better followup shots. But the the g20 having slightly better mod choices is a tossup for me.
888Corsa@reddit
I have some extra wight on mine https://photos.fife.usercontent.google.com/pw/AP1GczPup08Rn5Uz_RVT6VHSSETaGOQMtMAIMemYDIBR4CkdXtbqNWa6PEH0SQ=w1215-h911-s-no-gm?authuser=0
Khunning_Linguist@reddit
How do you feel about that bracket instead of getting a mos cut? How's field strpping it and clesning with it in place?
888Corsa@reddit
field strip no problem with rear sight removed, not my everyday carry as you can imagine. i prefer sights for defensive use anyway but like that the optic doesn't move with the slide in this setup. this mount is no longer made and was intended for the 17/19 but just fits the 20 though not advertised to do so
Khunning_Linguist@reddit
Thanks! Was thinking about going that route for my G19 non mos. I may just find a new/used slide instead.
Mahlegos@reddit
Links broken
888Corsa@reddit
sorry, try new one
Mahlegos@reddit
Little extra weight there lol. Nice.
Quw10@reddit
Less about velocity and more that some of the spicier stuff is a bit easier on the hands from the 40 vs the 20 in my experience.
BrapSucker@reddit
9mm is good enough for bear country.
I'm gonna copy my post from above because I put all the loaded oz for each gun
Oralprecision@reddit
Black bears? Sure.
Fishing in Alaska? 10mm is on the low side.
CologneGod@reddit
Christ sake what type of fish are u fishing
Oralprecision@reddit
Leedsychthys.
Pretty good eatin’.
And yes - I had to google that.
CologneGod@reddit
Was expecting bear fish but that makes more sense
RavenRocksPrecision@reddit
don't discount the G29. Big fan of the G29 with a KKM threaded barrel. It's about the size of a G19.
OKGreat86@reddit
Looks like I missed the damned thing. Balls!
TheJunkman9000@reddit
My post was deleted but since this one is out of stock:

Sasquatch1916@reddit
Better than blue label or the Ibex deal from the other day that I already ordered. Do it
OKGreat86@reddit
So by simply requesting a quote after clicking the link, I'll get the discount?
Alert_Paper_9356@reddit
That's usually how it works. I think family firearms makes you put it your email, then after a few short minutes they send you an email with the discounted price.
So id have to say this link will more than likely be the same way
tryreadin@reddit
FF is gone man. RIP
Alert_Paper_9356@reddit
😲 dang, I didn't know they were no longer in business. Been a while since I've bought a gun online (buy more from local sellers)
