These Gen5 Glock pistols are not just any Glocks. These Glocks are a step above the rest, and they’re damn sweet. Glock spent a lot of time on the Gen5 and made sure it looked as sharp as possible. So it’s no surprise that the Glock company wanted to make their guns look sharp, which certainly showed.
Beavertail backstraps
Beavertail backstraps are available for gen5 glock pistols in a variety of sizes. These backstraps are reversible and allow the gun owner to customize the circumference of the grip. The magazine catch is also reversible and enlarged toward the pistol’s rear. Beavertail backstraps are also available for Gen4 pistols. These backstraps fit a pistol’s medium or large frame.
To install a backstrap on a Glock, the first step is to remove the trigger housing pin. This cannot be easy, so a soft mallet is recommended. You can also use a Glock Pin Tool to install the backstrap.
Reversible magazine release
Glock Gen5 pistols are now equipped with a reversible magazine release, making stripping empty magazines much easier. In addition, compared to the Gen4, Gen5 pistols have fewer moving parts, making reloading faster and easier. They also have minimal sliding stops, which improve grip.
This feature also helps left-handed shooters, as the magazine catch is on the right side of the grip. In addition, the magazine catch has been extended for ease of use. The magazine catch is made from plastic and is compatible with GEN 4 and GEN 5 Glock pistols.
Besides the ambidextrous slide release, Gen5 Glock pistols also have a reversible magazine release. This feature allows customization of the pistol to fit your unique hand shape. The ambidextrous slide stop lever and extended button on the right hand make it easy to release a magazine from either hand.
Longslide models
The Glock Gen5 pistol series is the next generation of Glock pistols, featuring new features and improved designs. The new Glocks feature polygonal rifling and an upgraded barrel crown compared to previous models. Both of these changes significantly improve the Gen4 pistols’ barrels.
The Gen5 pistol line features subcompact models for concealed carry and long slide models in nine and other calibers. This series offers a range of features and is easy to use. Some pistols also feature barrel porting, making them easier to carry and use in various situations.
The Gen5 G26 and G34 pistols are similar to their predecessors, but the G26 and G34 have front cocking serrations. They also have a new nDLC finish, which gives them a sleeker look while improving corrosion and scratch resistance. In addition, both models come in basic matte black. The Glock M series inspired the Gen5 pistol series. According to the manufacturer, over twenty changes were incorporated into the Gen5 series.
.45 ACP

It was designed by Gaston Glock, a gun designer, and engineer. He assembled a team of handgun experts and developed a working prototype in just three months. He was determined to improve the gun using modern manufacturing technologies and synthetic materials. He also updated the design several times over its production history.
The Gen 5 Glock pistols were designed to meet the contract requirements of various police agencies. The new gun has a rotating barrel, a manual safety, and an adjustable slide stop. However, it is not likely to be offered for civilian sale.
