Glock Model 40 10mm 

He is a great shot. I love watching him shoot. No camera editing. No cuts in the footage like all the others. He shoots, and you watch. He doesn't need any tricks or gimmicks.

Grandfather of RU-vid man. Still watching videos i seen 5-10 years ago 🙏🏽🤝

My Glock 20 was my first handgun and it's still one of my very favorites. Most versatile handgun I own. Lighter loads for self-defense, or heavy hard-cast slugs for bear or other dangerous game. And it's actually not too bad to carry!

It amazes me that I'm watching a 28 minute video of a pistol that was designed 30 +years ago and that hasn't changed much. And it still intrigues me....Awesomeness!!!

so ive honestly lost count of how many videos ive watched trying to decide if I want this gun, and this mans genuine enthusiasm has sold it for me. I want to thank you sir!

You can see .45 ACP go down range toward the target. With 10mm auto you only see the impact.

You are a frikin surgeon with a handgun. Good lord. Deadly accurate is an understatement.

This was the pistol that made me finally switch from S&W to Glock for many reasons and it is simple once you look the weapon over. The extra length of the barrel means more accuracy when firing also it means that you get more bang for each shot fired. Extra velocity, extra penetration, more impact but the downfall is that it is slower on the draw because more barrel has to clear the holster. To remedy this a drop down rig will give you an equal playing field when drawing as long as you practice firing from the hip on your first shot before bringing the weapon up to a correct shooting position. I have trained like this since I was a Marine on my own time because shooting from the hip was not part of pistol training when I was trained shooting the Berretta 92 back in the early 90's. I also trained all of my family members and friends who wanted me to train them to use a firearm to shoot from the hip along with all the true shooting techniques the Marines taught me. To make a long story short the Gen 4 Glock 40 MOS chambered in 10mm is the finest self defense handgun I have ever owned and that list is a very long one seeing as I am now 43 years old with my first handgun being a Ruger Super Blackhawk .44 magnum at the age of 16 but it was limited to six shots and a slow reload time. From there I started buying, testing, and training with as many handguns as possible including surplus handguns from other countries like the Russian CZ52 chambered in 7.62x25 which is another hand cannon but is limited to only 8-9 rounds a load with a slower mag release. The Glock 40 gives you 15 rounds of magnum power bullets, a quick reload like other quality hi cap mag pistols, and a very controllable recoil even with powerful rounds. Honestly I would have stuck with S&W M&P pistols had they kept making a 10mm with hi cap mags like Glock has after all it the was S&W model 1006 chambered in 10mm that got me hooked on the 10mm in the first place. For the life of me I do not understand why the general public would just follow the chosen rounds forced on the majority of police officers, like sheep. All of the officers I know (and there are many) did not care much for the .40 S&W. Don't get me wrong it is a caliber that will kill a human but the 10mm will do the job better hands down. Even the 9mm +p ammo does not compare to the 10mm in speed and power if you buy the correct 10mm ammo. Look at it like this. Most people carry some kind of pocket knife if they have any kind of self preservation sense. A pocket knife is constantly needed in every day life to open letters, cut power cords, scrape your fingernails, etc. but I not only carry a pocket knife for everyday use I also carry a Swiss Army knife that I use to do many more things that pop up in everyday use. The 10mm is like the Swiss Army knife of pistol rounds as it can stop people and it can stop large animals from attacking you. Not to mention if your aggressor is shooting at you from behind cover the 10mm is more likely to penetrate that cover and the attacker too. I will carry the Gen 4 Glock 40 MOS as my EDC defense weapon until S&W (or another quality gun company) makes a model M&P (or similar model) chambered in 10mm (the lack of one was a huge mistake on their part) and even then I would have to test it against my Glock 40 to see if it could deliver the same quality of protection. NOTE: Please do not buy a Jennings or Hi-Point pistol, save up and get a weapon that will not hang up on you when you need it most, your family, your friends, and even your life is worth more than the cheap price of crap weapons.

I wish the military will adopt a 10mm so ammo will get cheaper.

whoever does your camera work is phenomenal, props to the unseen hero!

Hickock watching your videos in 1080P60FPS is like watching completely new videos. The crisp picture is outstanding. From an Army veteran, I love your show. You have some outstanding reviews. Keep up the good work please!!

It seems like guns have zero recoil with hickock.

Darn. Yet another new gun that I now "need."

He hit the nail on the head about the difference between the .40 s&w and the 10mm...anyone who says off the shelf 10mm is the same as a .40 probably has never fired a 10mm and just believes whatever they read in the comments sections from keyboard experts who probably dont even own a gun

How can anyone not like a hickok45 video, especially about a Glock 40? Great video as usual!

"Dis is muh glock fordee. Dis is muh problem solver rite heer."

I carried my Glock 20 in Alaska, now I carry it in Texas too.

10mm master race shoots holes in the ozone layer and killed the dinosaurs.

I remember when 44 magnum was the top dog. No one ever questioned the power of a 44 magnum against bears, but now that you got all the super magnum handguns out there. The same people treat a 44 magnum like it’s barely good enough for rabbits.

one just showed up at the shop today. sold in 45 minutes. got home and this vid was posted. awesome!

He makes the biggest pistol look like a regular carry gun 😂

I really love the 10mm for self defense!! I have a Glock 20 and 29 and carry them regularly. I will carry my 29 as a backup for boar hunting in 2020!!!

“They can get the job done if you can get the job done.” I love that quote. Caliber doesn’t matter as much as the shooter.

I appendix carry a Glock 40. My wife ask me is that your gun or are you just happy to see me? I say, "it's my gun" lol

Thank you so much for doing this review. I just ordered this G40 from Bud's I hope to have it next week

"gas check" is the words. I think the 10 mm is the best all around semi auto handgun round there is. But that's just my opinion. If I could shoot like you I wouldn't want an optic either.

Isn't the 10mm the caliber the FBI wanted to use for all their agents but then later decided to switch to .40S&W because most agents couldn't handle the recoil?

Hey hickock45, So last Friday we were testing in school, and our teacher told us when we're finished we can get on our phones and stuff until the end of class. So when I finished I put my headphones on and startied watching this exact video. The teacher glanced at me and saw what I was watching.. He confiscated my phone for watching inappropriate content on RU-vid during school.. Really bs .. My father, a former marine.. however did come up to the school and sorted them out and got my phone back

I purchased my first handgun on the advice of a former police officer. He told me to get a "Glock 40". I didn't know he meant .40 caliber, so I got the model 40. Imagine my surprise.

Wow. Beautiful. A weapon this size with minimal recoil? OUTSTANDING!

Thanks hickok, my stepson just bought one of these for grizzly protection. I included this as a recommended video to watch. He's a smart fella so I'm sure he paid attention to what you covered.

This is the gun which may actually convince me to buy a Glock(I'm a revolver and steel pistol guy). That darn thing could serve as an anti-aircraft gun. :)

Christ, the 10mm doesn't mess around!

I purchased a G40 this summer and installed a Holosun green dot and Trijicon suppressor height night sights. I recently used this pistol to take a nice buck at 45 hards from a stand. Really impressed with both the pistol and the 10mm performance. Update: I swapped out the factory barrel for a KKM threaded barrel so I could install my Bannish 45 suppressor while hunting. Not super quiet. but is now hearing safe without muffs or earplugs. Probably now as close as I can get to a perfect stand hunting pistol.

I believe he was using a Glock 9mm pistol modified to shoot 40mm grenades at 1000 rounds per minute.

I’ve been watching you for years since the beginning of your channel and It seems like your accuracy gets better with age much love hiccock45

You've gotta get more Underwood. It costs 60¢ - 80¢ per round and is the most powerful 10mm you can buy.

Another great video hickok. Even though I'm a certified glockaholic I didn't know this gun existed until my wife bought me one for an early Christmas present yesterday. Put 100 rnds of American eagle 180gr fmj. Great shooter I think I'll use it for whitetail and hogs.

Hickok 45 is the best cultural encyclopedia about firearms!!!

Definitely a brick but great for a range/competition 10mm

10mm is best mm

I just picked up one of these weapons for off duty carry and I'm very impressed with the performance. It takes a bit of getting used to; but, it's definitely capable of taking care of business.

You are awesome hickok45!!thanks I love all 15 of my guns.I really enjoy shooting my glock 19,glock 20 and glock 21 but also my S&Ws,Rugers,Springfields,colt and rock island gun!!thanks for all you do,life is good!!

hickok45 please influence glock to make factory happy sticks for the 10mm.. its way over due.

Hey Hickok! Love your channel! I just purchased a G40 and I wondered if you have a recommendation for a good hunting holster that works well with the long slide? Thank you!

0:17 is the first time I ever seen Hickok miss something 🤣🤣😂😂

I am anti glock not a fan at all but YOU have made me make a purchase and reasoning in keeping a glock your reviews go a long way

ALL HAIL THE 10MM

That is what I call shooting. You friend, are a heck of a shot. You know your weapon. Thank you for the show and tell.👍

Why would anyone vote Hickok down? It doesn't matter what you're demonstrating Hickok. I always enjoy your videos.

At 24:00-24:25, for those who may not be familiar with it, those little brass caps at the base of cast lead bullets are called gas checks.

Heh. The Glawk Forty is real now.

I picked up a used gen 4 model 40 and right away did what I always do when I make a firearms purchase. I looked up Hickok to see what he thinks. We are of one mind; I LOVE this pistol and have discovered that I shoot it very well. Years ago I had a model 23. It was really hard on my oversized hands. That was a 40SW. This big 10 mm is much more comfortable for me to shoot.

This guy is a professional and a character.. he would laugh at you while shooting you..cool!

Been watching yo videos since I was 14

Would love to see you shoot the EAA/Tanfoglio Witness 10mm. Seems like its another great value 10mm. Crossing my fingers!

Just acquired a G40 MOS! I also have a Gen3 G20. Love me some 10mm!!

.40 caliber bullets rock!! 40 S&W or 10mm auto. My two favorite semi auto cartridges.

Really appreciate you breaking things down for us to understand a gun. Your voice is perfect for listening to. Thank You Sir.

DAMN IT!! Just when I thought I would not have to but any more guns. Glock goes and does this to me......

I've had my G40 for a month now and the slide will interchange with my Gen 4 Glock 20. I had a red dot on it but am opting to put an Aimpoint T1 on it over the Triicon RMR.

I have this gun, hailing 10mm at 13:44 and 18:18. Very accurate and controllable for those close encounters within 20 yards it has no competition. Plus if you need some food you can each out and touch a tasty deer or elk at easily 50+ yards with the full power loads available from underwood, double tap, or buffalo bore. Best all around full power pistol hands down, that won't break the bank at $700.

I remember the day after the assault weapons ban sunset, around 15 years ago. I went out and purchased 5, 15 round mags for my Gen3 19. Those days could definitely return.

3:47-3:51 ......I wouldn't mind having that audio as my ringtone hehehehehe

Awesome gun! When I got my Gen4 23 (used) the original owner had replaced the standard sights with adjustable sights like on your G40. Those things just would not stay zeroed. A local shop stuck some Glock steel sights on for $15.

My wife and I carry the glock 10mm. 20Gen4. We conceal carry and I open carry. We are in NORTH CAROLINA so we have both conceal carry and open carry. We have noticed that when we walk into a restaurant the first thing people see is the guns we have. We have been to the firing range with these guns and they are super nice. Our son is in Law Enforcement and he carries a Glock 45. We are very satisfied with these guns.

Just picked up my new Glock 40 MOS today. It's a fantastic piece and worth every penny.

I hope to add this to my collection by the end of the year . Great video you handle that 10mm like a pro !!!

At 25:31 I think a piece of lead or something comes back at him.

Cool you said Alaska! I line in Juneau Alaska, was just at the Gun shop and the first gun the guy recommended was the Glock 40 10 mm. I do a lot off hiking and berry picking in the summer here, and can’t always carry a giant rifle or shot gun , I’m new to Glocks so I really appreciate your videos, I don’t own one yet! But looking too soon , thanks

Hickok45: the best reason to get into smoking pot.

I carry my glock 29sf as my main pistol. love the 10mm round!

The cops carry these in my Cyberpunk novel im working on

New video of hickok45 pops up into my main page and I end up getting yet another gun. Sir, you are driving me to bankruptcy.

Hickok45 I've been watching your videos for some time now but I might be your newest subscriber, (yesterday). Enjoyed this video on the Glock 40!. Thanks!

Need this to complete my Glock long slide collection. I already have the 17L and 24

I wanted to let you know @hickok45 if you recall your your visit to Cape Girardeau and also recall your facebook post about the gas station off I55... the gas station i go to almost everyday to fuel up my work truck in the morning? Well that "guns prohibited" sticker on the door has been removed (-: i really wish i woulda ran into you that day!

Picked up a Glock 20 for my North Georgia walk the dog bear gun. I love it, recoil is great.

Another good video. Thank you for your attention to gun safety -- that's so important. I'd like to share a story that occurred recently: I was with a family member at the range a few months ago. He had a brand new S&W .380 semi automatic pistol he was going to shoot for the 1st time, which he'd been keeping loaded with factory ammo for concealed carry. I'd mentioned the range did not allow loaded guns inside except on the firing line, so he removed its magazine and cycled the slide a few times to clear the pistol before we entered the facility. Fortunately, I noticed a live round had remained in the chamber despite the slide being cycled. I can't emphasize enough, everyone please LOOK into the chamber as you cycle the slide to clear a pistol. Removing the mag and cycling the slide does not guarantee the gun is empty. By the way, the gun functioned flawlessly other than that isolated issue. There were no more instances of it having a live round stay in the chamber when it shouldn't.

#hickok45 Awesome review man, as always. You've probably been asked this a thousand times, but the perspective of distance is impossible to estimate in the video. Can you share the general distances you're shooting for the major targets, including the gong at the back? Keep the videos rolling!

Can you believe this simple hand gun is Illegal here in California? Sarcasm, I know you can.

I just realized hickok has 1.6 Million Subs! That is just Awesome!!!

I ❤️ my G40. Out of the 10mm pistols I've used, I shot my best group with the G40. Colt, S&W, Springfield, and Glock 20 and 40, I like the G40 best. It really doesn't seem oversized to me but Im 6'8" 285 and I have some serious sausage fingers so maybe that's why. I was just comfortable with it right away. Never tried a Dan Wesson of any caliber or a sig but I hear they're excellent. This one's a nail driver though and that's why I carry it .

I have a Glock 40, and its well worth the money. Have a Leupold Delta Point on top, and i'm getting some trigger work on it so it will fit me personally. What a firearm.

Try the Lehigh 10mm Penetrator round. I saw 22plinkster test that round against a bullet resistant laminated polycarbonate (i assume) glass/plate. The regular range round did not penetrate the plate any better than a 9mm. But the Lehigh Penetrator went right through. Short but interesting video.

My wife bought me a G40, so far about a 1000 rounds of sellier and bellot 10mm through it, no jams or smiles. However I recently purchased some really hot underwood extreme penetrators pushing a 140grain solid copper bullet at 1,560 fps. It shoots ok if you take your time, but if you do a mag dump or squeeze off more than a few, the infamous Glock smile appears and each successive round gets worse and worse to the point that at about the 13th round the casing had bulged so much in the chamber that the extractor didn't remove the empty and a jam occurred. Upon inspection I was amazed at how close the underwood round came to total catastrophic failure, aka the dreaded squib load? Either way if anyone happens to get their hands on this piece, I highly recommend buying a fully supported after market barrel as the OEM glock barrel is not sufficient to handle successive high power rounds in a rapid fire situation and the risk of injury increases as you dump a full magazine. Had my weapon not jammed I may be in the hospital with injuries. A very nice gun, still extremely reliable, however, Glock fails to inform the consumer that their stock barrels are designed to accept a wide range of low to medium power loads efficiently, but does not fully support the cartridge in the chamber because of this feature, and high power loads may fail and cause injury. don't let this turn you away however, still a very nice platform. I'm gonna try a lone wolf threaded barrel and see how it does

I can't believe this channel is so close to 2 million I remember when it only had 10 k.

do you think the extra length of the glock 40 will make a difference in stopping a bear compared to the glock 20? thank you sir. i love your videos please keep them coming.

My wife just bought me one of these guns for an early Christmas present. It shoots really well, but while reassembling the gun I can't get the slide on to the frame unless I push on the striker plunger allowing the striker to move forward then I can get the frame and slide back together. I've never had to do that with any other glock. It doesn't seem to affect performance.

My wife just surprised me with one for Xmas! Awesome gun!

Wow,that really tore the range up ! Good shooting as always !! You were obviously having fun..

Coming here after hearing ace hood say “glock 40 on me for the dummies, and I got a little for your buddies” realizing I’ve never seen a glock 40 before

I heard that a Glock 20 could shoot .40 cal and .357 sig with a barrel swap. Would it be possible with this gun with a barrel swap and mag change? That would really ad to the versatility. Keep up the great work.

Hickok45, I just returned from the range. I had a 6" KKM barrel on my Glock 20 and put it onto my Glock 40 for today's range. It worked without flaw using American Eagle 200 gr FMJ and had impressive accuracy.

If Wyatt Earp had to pick one of today's handguns, I have a feeling he'd pick a Glock model 40.

hikglock45

I remember hickok commenting on .357 sig as having a lot (implying too much) blast. I don't see much consistency in liking the 10 but not liking the 357 very much. They are both a little nasty.

They’re coming back Hickok.

the camera does the glock 40 no justice. This gun is huge in person😂

I carry the Glock 40 mos with the Delta Point Pro in a Chest Holster here in North Idaho! Great gun for protection out on the trails and a very smooth recoil because of its slide weight. I also run the Tungsten guide rod and spring and streamtlight .
