"Gaston's"? James Reeves is salivating. 😂

Glock gen 6 can etch "the Goeggler" on the side

Half the point of Glock is the grip angle. I hated it when I first bought one coming from Sig FN and the like, but I've found that I'm way better with that angle than any other. Every time I draw I'm on target, instantly and naturally. I love the angle.

On the subject of Glock sights. I get why the OEM sights are a source of contention and it used to be for me as well. However, after shooting for several decades now I've settled into particular sights I like, and I try and keep consistent on all of my guns. So, at the end of the day, unless Glock is only going to offer the XS Big Dot sights that I like, I'm going to change them out anyway. In which case I feel much better about throwing those cheap plastic sights back into the case than I do tossing some expensive sights I never wanted.

I have an idea for Gen 6: Built in switches.

A direct mount system that'll work with the most common optic footprints would be nice

I can't tell you what gen 6 will have but I can absolutely tell you what it won't have: The ability to take full auto switches.

Ditch MOS and go directly milled for RMR pattern (normal glocks) and RMSc (G43x etc) dots

Design by committee is always best. Stellar work, guys.

The Shadow Systems love is wild. The mr920 is literally lighter than a stock Glock, less reliable, and none of the upgrades are actually executed in best form.

Nice Independence Day hangover!

Glock partnered with Davidson’s and Gunsite to make a duty G45. I have one and love it so far. Suppressor height sights, optic cut specifically for the 509T Holosun (optic comes mounted as well), FBI mag release, and flared magwell. All done at Glock.

Why would Glock invest money into upgrading the gun when they know the secondary market is there for it already? Unless their sales start seriously sliding, I don't see them doing much

Yeah so some of those ideas are good but I think gen 6 will come out soon and there might be some flashy marketing about a new grip texture or a new optics mount but the MAIN thing Glock will be changing is they will somehow change the striker design to prevent the addition of a 3d printed auto seer. Glock is a European company at heart and they're already being sued by the State of Illinois because they're easy to convert to a machine pistol. It wouldn't surprise me if whatever they do to prevent full auto makes the trigger "even worse" (I put that in quotes cuz I really don't mind Glock triggers).

Factory RMR print would be dope.

Needs: a nice factory comp option, factory flat faced straight trigger and machined RMR footprint option.

Standard rails, better stipple on the grips, standardize an optics cut better than the mos system, a more aggressive front and back slide serrations, and better sights. They can also have a pro or comp series like how m&p does.

I’d update the G34 as a 5” slide and typical comp stuff (their performance trigger((or one that actually works)), their OEM magwell, fibre optic sights, extended mag release etc) which both makes it IPSC legal and competitive out of the box. The magwell just clips on so if Standard Optics finally gets ratified you just put it on and your ready to go. And yes the MOS plates need attention too.

Get the sig chassis system away from my beautiful Glocks. Those cause so many issues with reliability, lungevity, rusting etc. the only thing Glock should do is make the plates better, better iron sights, offer different stippling. Flocks are unironically almost perfect, just leave them be.

I recently got a Matrix Arms MX19. Gen 3 G19 clone with Aluminum frame and hand stippled grips. 1911 grip angle with a Timiney trigger. Trijicon sights, direct milled Rmr cut on a heavily serrated slide. I absolutely love it. Any complaint people have on Glocks this has it fixed, for real. But I love plain Glocks. They are super easy to shoot.

No mention of steel frame or tungsten infused frame? Thats what I want more than anything.

Boresight Solutions does a good job changing the grip angle but at a steep price.

Something steel framed, adjustable over travel, attachment point in the frame for gas pedal thats easily reversed, threaded barrel.

All it needs is a better optic mounting system

Put the RTF texture on the slide lol

I think a Flux Raider grip module for Glock would sell like insane! Just gotta make it affordable, modular…

Better grip texture, better grip angle and a standard performance trigger

Biggest thing for Gen 6 is increasing the capacity of the 43, 43x, and 48. Then, more aggressive stippling. I work at a gun range/store and 90% of guns with grip tape are Glocks. Also, AR-15.

They need to revamp the MOS system. Slide cuts for specific optics would be nice. Shouldn’t have to spend $550 on a Glock then send it off to a 3rd party for a cut

I think FCU and metal mags would make a good generational improvement at minimun, though pretty much everything else here is probably necessary.

Zev probably already has the patent on Glock FCUs. You can occasionally get them for $300.

A pro or "Skunk Works" series should obviously be called "Glockworks." 😂

Wow yeah a Glock Skunkworks would be awesome! They’d make a killing for a custom Glock directly from them

Glock 34/17 with a rotating barrel like the G46. Black rear and fiber optic front sights. Better trigger and MOS system.

I feel that Glock does not have to do very much with the sixth generation, i shoot a Glock 19 mos pretty well with the standard trigger and know a lot of people who do, it comes down to training, Even with companies like Walter, Smith and Wesson, and even Stacatto offering better triggers, grip textures and sights, people still end up changing all those things, I bet even if Glock included all theses thing people would still change em up

This is off topic but have you done a video on your thoughs with steel challenge? I mean like do you feel its good practice or campy? How do the rankings compare with shooting prifociency to you? Etc.

Honestly for a gen 6 glock i'd really just like to see a factory raised/rearward extended slide release (like the Kagwerks, so its out of the way for a high support hand position but can still be reached via thumb without compromising grip) plus a slightly wider or different shape mag realease for the same reason, and even more ideally, high texture on the sides and back of the frame, and perhaps some slightly angled texture in a few spots based on what the gun wants to do during strings of fire with sweaty hands? I feel like with how modern and efficient production can be, that shouldn't change the price much. Holster and mag compatibility with gen 5's would be perfect. Keep the same overall profile of the gun and the same mags. Just with ergonomics/grip texture that are polished up so you don't have to change any controls or feel the need to stipple it. Basically a gen 5 that you only decide on your preference for triggers and sights, and whether or not you want slide cuts and a different recoil spring, and roll out with that.

Agree with iron sights. Like actual iron

200th like!

Metal mags they could stuff a few more rounds in

how abour revolver shooting Ben? You should challenge yourself and try some blazing fast reloads on a SW 929 !!! that would be freaking cool. Ah, wear a cowboy heat ;)

Love this discussion. Glock is in no hurry to make their guns more expensive to manufacture.

Steel frame would be interesting for the extra weight.

The Gen 6 Glock will be a Springfield Echelon.

How about a steel frame version like everyone else is doing?

How about a normal grip angle? Pretty much the only thing I hate about them. Can deal with the goofy trigger and stock sight / mounting platform (easy enough to mill my optic or replace sights). But I find it a bit hard to go from Glock to any-other-gun due to that grip angle being so deviant from the typical gun (the sig p320 by contrast is a bit to shallow than the typical gun). They could also bend to those who want manual safeties like m&p and p320/365 give you the optio of if you want.

Same thing that smith and Wesson does with their performance models

I’m just shooting from the hip here but do you think one reason (other than what seems to be Glocks aversion to change) is that there are so many patented modifications for Glocks that it has made it difficult for Glock to make their own changes?

Grip texture upgrade Something little more aggressive , trigger chassis, Also why the hell do I shoot a 19 way worse than my 17 ?

How about a steel frame Glock 17 with a great trigger.

How about an internal hammer that has a 5.5 pound glass vile break trigger that's Glock reliable.

I have heard how awful the MOS system is since day one and though I use an after market plate, my SRO hasn't budged screws haven't budged nothing since I installed the red dot. Maybe just luck and know it's not the best setup but it's been solid for me.

Glock is too busy selling horse semen to care about making a custom shop lol

What is the issue people have with the stock sights, besides being made of plastic? I have 3 and never noticed an issue, though I shoot with optics exclusively now.

glock needs to do raced out versions like shadow systems. everyone has comped race guns except glock. but a trigger module im betting wont happen since that will be a huge redesign. also a factory pcc would be interesting.

What state is Ben in?

Glock should have a Glock competition series many time ago.....it's late ... while competitors are just running fast......

want market share? glock drops the 1911 grip angle. other then that.. REAL metal sights and a texture on par with M&P 2.0 id be fully on board with the lighter//

I don't think the removable or modular fire control group is the way to go yet. I haven't seen anyone do it without issues that have hurt their brand. Better irons. Better trigger. Better mag release. Maybe upgrade the MOS systems. Not asking that much, and it wouldn't mess with internals.

Colors other than black?

Remoil MOS users assemble!!!

Beaver tail from the Glock 46!

Wasn't this same topic posted 2 days ago?

They could just buy Shadow Systems

Glocks should be $100- 200 cheaper than its competition for its basic sights, trigger, and milling.

boberg pistol operating system

Shadow Systems is garbage by the way. - guy who t&e’d for them when they were just shitty barrel makers.

It needs RGB lights and spinners.

I think I am the only person in the world who likes stock Glock sights, especially since they finally got the dot and U sizes matched up properly. I understand that the durability may be an issue for some-specifically those who like to use the rear sight as a charging handle. As for the front sight, it can wear down during many draws against the holster. But a modern holster with a tall sight channel would pretty much negate that problem. The sight picture itself works great for me, and is fine for hitting someone in the chest at 20 feet. I’ve seen some pretty old Glocks with original sights, so the typical owner isn’t breaking them off, either. My new Gen 5 Glock 22 shot a tiny bit to the right when I first got it, and I realized that the rear sight was slightly off center. But that was easily remedied. Of course, if an optic is going to be fitted, something taller needs to go on anyway, so that is just a non-optic gun problem. As for the MOS, I am running a 509t on mine. I think that a sight such as that doesn’t have a lot of the typical MOS problems. First of all, you are going to be using an aftermarket plate made from better material. Secondly, the plate screws down nice and snug into the slide and then the optic mounts to that by means of a crossbar-type setup, so you’re not likely to shear off any screws. There is no worry about how much thread engagement on the optic’s screws.

Glock reminds me of Nintendo, loved but has a complete refusal to give customers what they want, even when it would make them a fortune and increase their popularity and overall ownership within the market. I would say for the Gen 6. Its a complete mystery why they would not go to a chassis system, if they did that, fixed the optic situation to be standardized and better and improved the trigger, anything anyone would ever diss the Glock for would be gone. Like the PDP and many cheaper systems already have better triggers better sights and optics cuts and are cheaper with similar reliability. They are losing the game here. I have no idea why the P320 is even liked at all other than its chassis system, Glock could completely blow them out of the water due to its aftermarket support if they had a reliable working chassis system. That plus the improved optics cut and better trigger it would be a no brainer for everyone to own a glock, even the glock haters. But nothing will change much no doubt.

The thing is crazy because the conversion to me is pointless in aspect to a stock Glock… stock 34 gen3 nice stock gen3 17 horrible your finger gets tired from trigger slop so fast it’s only a functional shooter not an easy gun to use especially with stock iron sights lol I had to spend 2000 near 3000 on my gen 3 34 lol 😂 just for it to be what a Glock should be lol

I hope these comments spur Ben to pick up a Shadow Systems option…

Integrated beavertail, steel sights, direct mount for rmr footprint, slightly nicer trigger, more rounded grip with a slightly reduced circumference and aggressive grip texture.

You should buy a Shadow Systems and test it out.

Change the grip angle 😂

Glock knuckle needs to go away forever.

what happened, got tired of Gen 5 shooting? One week he is all in on Staccato P, next week its CZ is dope, then its XC swag, now its "comps are too easy" I am a Gen 5 guy....next week it will be "quit reading comments as trolls are dangerous", cause the reddit told me and my 100th gun is a Gen 5, next week it will be "its better than golf". '....and round and round it goes. Perhaps he will buy another truck or something and diss toyota.

Glock doesn't care what you think. A huge part of their market aren't gun people, that shoot >100 rounds a year. If Glock cared, they would have released a Glock Carbine in the 2000s.

Sights are literally crap made from plastic. The WHITE DOT on front side is not EVEN CENTERED. I am pissed because i have two Glocks now and the white dot in middle of the sight is left. Really same crap on my Glock 17 and Glock 44. I am not sure if i can live with the rolling sponge trigger anymore, ever. Timney Trigger seems to be the best freaking trigger out there. I have two of them now. One on my Glock 17 and one on my Glock 19. I will try will they work with my Glock 44. I get no money or nothing out of this when i say: The trigger should be like Timney Alpha trigger from the factory. Stupid sponge triggers with creep should not be tolerated anymore. Morons should have option to buy heavy sponge trigger so they could not accidentaly press them to make the gun fire.

Glock stubbornly refuses to innovate. Its almost like a plan.

DPP optic footprint to match Army standard. RMR fans will lose their minds. Everyone else will tell them to lighten up, did they know they make larger optics now? Grip/chassis system so you can change grip modules like SIG. They'll say "not like ergo perfection? Make own ergos." Same shitty sights. Dumb people keep them, anyone who trains is going to put their own personal sights on it. Don't waste money on something everyone is going to change. XS Sights breathes sigh of relief. Completely redesigned trigger that defeats the switch but is somehow not even as good as the current trigger. Apex will announce aftermarket trigger 28 minutes after new Glock announced. Won't ship for first unit for 9 months. Gen 7 Glock ships before you get your Gen 6 Apex trigger. They'll sell millions.

Glock doesn’t care about changes for real bc they are still in all movies and TV shows, in rap music etc. plus, a lot of their money is made in horse semen.

Try an XR920P and report back to us

Shadow systems are garbage

I think Glock should buy shadow systems!

The next generation should be a hammer fired DA/SA Glock with safety/docker.

I don’t understand why everyone wants to fuck with something that works leave the damn things alone if you start messing with shit you run the risk of making it unreliable there is not a handgun out there that I trust more than Glock ok do something with the mos setup maybe if you change the grip angle then you have to change the mags leave the damn things alone
