You know you got a lot of ammo, when you find 1500 rounds you forgot about.

"The 1911, designed a long time ago.... I forget what year it was" 🤣🤣 That cracked me up! Good one Hickok.

“Wise to the size of the big 45’s” - never knew hikok could rap. Very impressive bar

Have Glocks and enjoy them, but I find it difficult to walk away from a nice 1911. Mr. Browning nailed that design... a brilliant man.

It's been 12 years and he's still making these videos , i love it keep it up!

Morning Hickok fans

I own a Glock 20, a 29, a 10mm 1911 made by Magnum Research via Tull arsenal in Turkey. I’ve also owned a colt delta elite. All beautiful firearms. The 29 is my EDC, though I do sometimes carry the 1911. Despite its overall size, it’s narrowness makes it surprisingly comfortable in an IWB holster. With the Glock 29, you really need the pinky grip extension to be comfortable though… without it you can’t get a full hand grip and the 10mm round in a compact is pretty snappy. Glock customer support and firearm toughness story: I hand load, have for years. One round accidentally got an extra heavy charge.. I later estimated about 150%… Gun blew up in my hand. A little burn, magazine blew out, cracked the frame. Barrel and slide were fine and even reusable! I sent the whole mess to Glock… they rebuilt the firearm around the salvageable parts for a flat fee of $99, no questions asked, even shipped it back to me for free. Well done,Glock!

Sir, I've been watching your videos for years and just wanted to take the time to say thank you for taking the time to make truthful, informative and entertaining content. You're a proper gentleman and deserve appreciation and respect. Have a good one.

I have 5 10mms A Glock 29 Kimber Colt Springfield and a Sig Love them all Shot all of them yesterday A great day Thanks for sharing 👍

One of my favorite parts of Hickok's videos is when he walks forward and you can hear the beautiful sounds of all those spent casings on the ground. Backyard range goals. Also lived in Fairbanks AK and my every day open carry while hunting was always my Glock 20. Bought it there and had buffalo bores loaded with an upgraded slide spring.

Been watching your videos for ages, probably a decade at this point. Thank you for doing these, you’ve informed and entertained me and so many others with your calm, informed approach

Thanks again guys for taking us along for all the fun stuff. I really appreciate it anyway all the best from Northern California👍

You taught me a lot about guns over the years! You are still one of my favorite channels on KZfaq :)

The best Gun KZfaq channel! Been watching since 2016 you teached me soo many things and I want to thank you Mr.Hickok45 👌

It jas been 14 years... And he is still continuing in his youtube journey... What a legend he is

I'd like to see a video on any double stack 1911 in 10mm. ROCK ULTRA FS HC or TAC ULTRA THREADED.

It’s been a while since a watched a Hickok video and I love that nothing at all has changed. He is still the same charming guy, with the same excellent shooting ability and the same beautiful range. This videos are timeless!

They’re both good options, 10mm’s a good round…👍🏻

Seen a lot of Hickok45 videos and still learning every time.

One thing about this guy....he don't miss the targets much! Nice!

I love how easy he manipulates the slides. Makes it looked so simple

I happen to have had both a Colt Delta Elite and the Glock 20 since 1991 when the G20 was introduced. I ended up sending the Colt to Evolution Armory about 5 years ago for some upgrades to the very basic 1911 configuration the gun came from the factory in (sights, beaver tail, crowning the barrel, upgraded the fire control group, the usual stuff). This gives me some some solid experience with a "stock" Colt DE and a "tuned" Colt DE side by side with a stock first gen G20. Both are fine shooters and are pretty much along the line Hickock45 says in the video. His observations on carrying them are also spot on. I have a shoulder rig for my G20 as it's too thick to carry, especially if there's much driving involved. The young guns out there would say "That girl is thicc", and they are not wrong. I've not shot the SA Ronin yet, but it "reads" well for a full featured modern day take on the 1911 in 10mm. Assuming SA is "out of the penalty box" for a potential buyer, it's worth comparing it to the Ruger, Rock Island, Dan Wesson and even Colt's current DE offerings. Before sending my Colt off to EA, I shot the it better than the Glock, where better = hitting my point of aim more consistently. Once I got it back from the gun spa, I shoot it a LOT better (Dave knows his stuff). I have some ideas on Why... Some of the recoil energy on the Glock gets absorbed by the frame flexing (look for high speed camera videos of Glocks being shot to see what I mean), and have a much wider grip, which to the shooter makes it a modestly softer gun re-coil wise, maybe this helps quell flinching for some, but for accuracy, I can't see frame flexing being a plus. Bottom line is in my experience, the recoil difference is not enough of a difference to make a difference. What absolutely does make a difference is Glock triggers are pretty horrible compared to a 1911, even with after market trigger bars and so on, there's just no comparison between a Glock and 1911. I'm using Wilson Combat 9 round magazines for my Delta Elite, and they work 100%. The Glock mags also are 100% reliable, however, getting the 14th and 15th rounds into the Glock magazine requires either a reloading tool or the Thumb of Hercules. I enjoy shooting both the Delta Elite and the Glock and both have a permanent place in my gun safe. Hopefully others can share their experiences with the G20 and other 1911's. Cheers!

Hickok45, another video. Thank you sir for your great content over years, and some of your helpful dad advices 👍

Another excellent video Hickok! I have been a Glock fan forever. Sure.. they aren't the prettiest firearm out there, but everytime you pull the trigger, they go bang. Several friends of mine that hunt in Alaska have switched to the 10mm Glock with Underwood ammo to replace their 44 Mags and even 454's. They are a LOT easier to carry than the heavy revolvers in addition to the extra ammo capacity and an old outfitter I use told me a really scientific theory that he came up with in regard to ammo capacity. It says, " More is better than less. " I'm sure NASA and MIT are studying that hypothesis now. That being said, I have to admit that Springfields feel nice to shoot and I have added several to the collection. And, yes, they are " pretty." I stay away from the Sigs because we have a lot of law enforcement at our club and I've seen way too many malfunctions in their department issued Sigs. I realize some might be maintenance issues but one of them is their SWAT Commander that I also hunt with a lot and I KNOW he keeps his firearms clean, but I've still seen malfunctions with his dept issued Sigs. So, I've pontificated enough, so thanks again for another informative video. Have a great day!

Definitely a fan of my g40. Love the full power 10mm. Its an impressive cartridge for its size.

Just got around to shooting a gun (Glock17) for the first time in a gun range since it's much more restrictive here in the EU to own a gun. Excellent experience and I must say your videos helped me by inspiring me to just go and do it. So thank you for that and wish you the best.

been following hickok45 since his first videos on youtube,and he's still my favorite firearms reviewer ,and this by manymany lenghts. nobody can replace hickok 45 if you know what i mean. his personalty,expertise ,calm nature are unmatched ,just watching any of his videos gets me into a calm,relaxing mood.a true therapy for me lol. long live hickok 45.

As always - a quality video. Thank you for what you do!

I own a Glock 29 and just recently picked up a Ronin 10mm. I love my Ronin and it's perfect in feel with that beautiful 10mm. By far the best millimeter is 10 millimeter.

I like both but 1911 is nostalgic where glock holds more rounds! Glock is awsome in action but I think 1911 has much more physical beauty!

The mischievous Hickok laugh in between rounds - priceless.

Excellent video! Especially, explaining the surprising difference in recoil!

We love your videos sir, thank you

I love that you work so hard to be balanced and fair. I think that the fact most of the weight of the Glock is in the slide helps recover from recoil faster. You clearly were able to shoot the Glock faster.

I daily carry a G20. It is admittedly a bit large & uncomfortable, but I deal with it for now - my Tier1 Concealment holster makes it doable. Havent found a smaller gun that I truly love. Many I like - some I even like a lot, but none that I love.

I have both the Glock 29 & 20 in Gen 4 both great guns. You make it look so easy . Love your videos. I learn a lot from you. Keep it up sir 👍👍👍

I've got the Rock Island 10mm 1911 and the Springfield XDM 10mm for bear defense in Alaska. They're excellent guns and do the job well. Both were in $600 range and I feel comfortable with either.

The wide grip on the Glock that gives it that famous 2x4 feel actually helps to distribute recoil forces over a larger area of the hand, which contributes to its softer feeling recoil. The Glock also has a shorter bore axis than any hammer fired pistol, and the polymer flexes to absorb some of the shock. So yes, most people will agree the Glocks have less felt recoil and faster follow up shots than the 1911, in any caliber, but especially something like full power 10mm. The capacity isn't a big deal in bear country, but the lighter weight and faster follow up shots might, as does the Glock's reputation for handling abuse while remaining reliable. I carry an older Gen III Glock 20 in grizzly country. And those of us who carry the 10mm for personal protection in the hood as well as the woods also appreciate the added capacity of the Glock. The 200 gr XTP at 1200+ fps is an excellent all around load for hunting and defense, A 200 gr FMJFN at the same velocity gives peace of mind in bear country. The Glock 20 probably saved the 10mm Auto, brought it back from the brink when everyone said the 10mm was dead. It has long had a reputation as one of the more reliable and durable 10mms, and at one point was the only option available at any price that could withstand a steady diet of full power loads. The fact it costs half as much as most 1911s in 10mm is just icing on the cake. The Glock 20 was my gateway into Glocks. I originally got my Glock 20 out of interest in the 10mm Auto, and have sense added Glocks in other calibers because they simply work without exception or excuse.

I can listen to this guy all the time. Great info on all this reviews and explains it all so well. He is like the Bob Ross of guns. 🙂

Love my Glock 20 10MM. Shoots strait, no recoil, fits my hand well.

Please put the "might wear out sooner" in perspective for the new gun owners. I fear they may get the impression the gun will wear out in a year or two. When in reality, unless you're a competitor or professional it'll take a lifetime to wear out a quality gun...abuse notwithstanding.

Where all my fellow 10mm owners at? It’s good to see the 10mm still getting attention! Nice shooting Hickok45

Awesome, I’m glad you’re comparing these.

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANKS HICKOCK!!!!

Carried a G20 or a G29 for many, many years…. Love them.

The answer with guns as always is 'both'

Thanks once more for this vid - a pleasure as always!! The lesser felt recoil of the Glock is AFAIK due to the bigger/wider grip, the polymer material does not absorb anything significant( if it does I strongly recommend a replacement), probably it is also more ergonomic than the 1911 grip, lowering the felt recoil even more. Plus, the Glock's slide front/rear end of travel is closer to the center of your hand both horizontal and vertical. The same goes for the barrel. The price difference is due to higher modularity, identical parts, polymer-injection-molding and much bigger numbers of sold big frame(10mm/.45) Glocks. Tooling up production is more expensive, but once done, costs-per-unit are a lot lower. Regards from Germany!!

Hey there, greetings from the UK. i've not called in for a while now, still loving the channel though and it's great to see you've still got enough ammo for fun!

My one and only firearm is a Glock 20. Shoots well at the range and is perfect protection hiking in the woods in the North Georgia mountains. I do want to get a 1911 but might go .45 to switch things up.

After 35 years of shooting 1911s, including a Delta Elite, I bought a Glock 20. It was a beater gun while I worked in northern Alaska. It had a strange trigger, but it was light, easy to clean, and to my amazement a really great shooter. The Glock 20 clearly has lighter felt recoil than the 1911. It has become my favorite all around woods gun.

Your laughing meter while shooting easily gives away which one you prefer. Great video

The first handgun I ever bought was a gen 2.5 G29 20 years ago. Never had any issues with it at all except a few stovepipes with cheap steel cased ammo. Runs like a beast.

Both nice options for your 10mm collection!

Someone breaks into Hickok45's house; "Haha, I get carried away sometimes".

Hickok has always been a huge inspiration!

Great video as usual! I carry my G20 inside and out as well as shoot hard cast 200 grain and have done so for years.(gas checks naturally) When in TexAs and on the ranch I always have the 20 for hogs. One time walking from one stand to another a sounder of 20 + hogs came towards me and I was glad to have the 15 + 1 in the G20. I carry my 19 edc and on occasion my p365 but the G20 in my Safari OWB gives me peace of mind. The 1911 is iconic but when it comes to tear down, capacity and safeties the G20 all day long IMO. Yes it is clunky, yes it is a bit wide as is my G30 but it has never let me down. There is a price to pay for everything the cost of a 20 beside the monetary cost is width and loaded weight. The confidence it brings however is priceless!

Sounds like you were getting ready for the Fallout apocalypse where 10mm inexplicably got adopted by the military and you could find it everywhere

Both are amazing. I'm a Glock person when it comes to handguns. The 10mm not only the best home defense and wildlife defense, the most reliable and powerful asset anyone can ever imagine.

I just bought a SW Ronin 10mm 1911 just like this for a Montana trip. Glad to see one of my purchases making it onto the channel! A little validation lol.

Got the Glock20 Gen4 Friday because of your videos. I couldn't be happier and recoil is very similar to my older H&K .40 S&W. I am very glad that manageable was correct. It is a great gun.

10 mm.....what everyone thinks 45ACP is!

I’ve had standard 1911 for almost a decade, but next year i think i’m upgrading to a G40 glock (6in 10mm). Keeping the 45acp because it’s awesome, but feel like for anything other than around the house protection or range time a 10mm would be better for tweaked out meth heads or big game protection while out fishing

Thanks for making this video! I've been thinking about getting a 10mm and wasn't sure if I wanted to go for a 1911 or Glock 20, and this comparison was super helpful.

I picked up a Springfield TRP Long slide last year It is just an awesome handgun. It is my favorite pistol and accurate as hell. It has a rmr on it from the factory.

May 2 litre's soul rest in peace.

Should do a video on a Smith and Wesson 1006

I own a Glock, it's sitting on the headboard of my bed (45ACP, mod 21). BUT, by far I am more of a 1911 fan. I find the trigger on a 1911 to be far superior to the Glock, most folks will agree, and a 1911 is far more accurate. For the record I have never heard anyone say anything about their 1911 "wearing out". I carry a Les Baer 1911 commander every day, and I carry IWB and it's extremely comfortable, never had any issues. And BTW, I have been a subscriber of yours for at least 5-10 years, so Thx for everything.

Great stuff as always!

I love my Rock Island Armory Pro Match Ultra 10mm with a 6-inch barrel, picatinny rail, and a double stack 16 round magazine. Fully capable of handling the hottest 10mm loads.

Happiness is warm gun

I didn't know that 10mm pistols even existed: I only saw them in the Fallout videogames. Thanks for the information!

I edc a 10mm and the only thing I’ve noticed is that a hot round will have no issues. I’m happy with my decision

My first experience with a Glock was at the qualification range after attending the CHL course. We were to qualify after the class. I was using my S&W 1911 .45 , the instructor wasn't happy about my 8 round mags, and insisted I use his Glock. I had no issues shooting another weapon as long as the site were on. Well ... I emptied the first 10 round mag, dropped it and shoved in another..... as I brought the pistol up, I noticed there was no front site. Somewhere in the exchange, the front site post had came out. The instructor, didn't even come to see when I told him the front site had flown off, he went to his van and got a big magnet and we searched and found the site. The thing was, he was prepared for such a fiasco. I'm sure Glock has fixed the issue as that was more than 20 years ago, but I haven't own a Glock because of that.

And Springfield, XDM-10mm OSP when we will have Review?

Hi. I'm from South Africa and I have to just let you know that almost every single gun shop I've been to, has your KZfaq videos playing on their screens all the time. Keep up the good work.

Another great video Hickok 👍

During the ammo scam 10mm was around. I currently need to thin out my herd of 45 acp and I may get a 1911 10 mm.

I’ve had both models of the Glock 10’s and also a Kimber 1911 10mm. The trigger on the 1911 is far superior to any Glock. Also, accuracy was better than either Glock maybe due to the better trigger. If having more ammo in your gun is what you want then the Glock wins. However, if you can’t get it done with the first 8 rounds you probably wont get it done with 16. If you have a big bear on you, you probably wouldn’t get 16 shots off before it got you anyway. Just my thoughts.

Haven't seen a recent video of yours. Nice video quality

Very outstanding video friend. Great job. Keep up the good work. Thanks a lot friend. SC Navy vet.

I love 10mil I was thirsty to see this🤣🤣💯🔫

Guessing that the all important bang factor is similar between the two.

My favorite caliber shot by my favorite youtuber and filmed on my birthday!

So tru found a ammo can full of 44mag. Was like Christmas morning. Thx Hickock love me some 10mm. Great video as usual!!

The Tanfoglio from EAA is also a nice option in 10mm. Full-sized pistol, double-stack, 14+1. Very reasonable recoil.

Between the glocks chunkiness and lousy trigger,I'd pick just about anything over them.

Hickok sir, you are definitely sharing your expertise, at least from my faraway perspective.

I just wish for once in my life I had a supply of ammo like you Hickok !!! Love it anyway !!!!!

This was a very informative video. I really like comparisons like this. I know I'm probably overly cautious but although I like the 1911 I just don't trust a hammer back type of carry. I prefer a double action pistol that can be carried hammer down and double action on the first shot with a hammer block. That's probably just me. But in a high pressure situation I want the first round down range to be deliberate and not an accident or premature discharge. I'm pretty calm under pressure but still. Anyone else feel this way?

SALUDOS DESDE EL SALVADOR. TENEMOS 10MM GLOCK " LONE WOLF" TIRO MUY POTENTE BUENISIMA PENETRACION EXCELENTE AMIGA PARA LA DEFENSA. SALUDOS^^^^^ HICKOCK 45. FIELES SEGUIDORES DESDE EL PULGARCITO DE CENTRO AMERICA.

Thanks for posting. Great video

My favorite 10mm was my Sig P220 Stainless Elite. One of the best shooting pistols I've ever owned. Only gun I ever regret selling.

Lifelong 1911 fan (and I'm near your age, Hick). That being said, the Glock's chamber fully supports the 10mm casing... no 1911 does. 🤔🧐 Jus' sayin'. 😉

The glock 20's magazine capacity puts it above just about all 10mm

Love your stuff Sir. Thank you

Thanks fo rthe 10mm video. It was fun to watch. Be Well.

Polymer junk vs a hundred year old masterpiece 👌

Glock ALL DAY

I do love your videos, I'm definitely planning to pick up a glock model 20 soon

Own a 2019 Colt Delta Elite and absolutely love it! Shoots well and have had no problems after 500 rounds. Also own and enjoy several Glocks but the G20 was just too bulky for me.
