Fr

Homedefense... MERICA

American moment

You need a Glock 17 for home defense? And another gun to carry? What kind of a third world country do you live? And you love it? You love that you need 2 guns to feel safe? Something is wrong in your head dude.

Yoo what's up

Note, as of 2023: Glock USA might close out all the gen 5 MOS format 17s. They will start to only make 47 MOS 9mm guns. A few other Glock models may be ended or sold only in a MOS or "optic plate" version. I myself like the 47 MOS 9mm.

I hope that one day, you too can have your right to ownership restored! Keep fighting for it and never give up!

I agree. A great addition to any collection!

@@GunBoxTherapy just got one, first ever firearm I’ve owned can’t wait to bring this camping

@@GunBoxTherapy hello admin. I'm from Malaysia. Where can I buy this Glock?

@@Whiteheart5775 dunhams 😊

@@Whiteheart5775 if u have one

How do *you* know it never needed to be upgraded?

​@@alm9951 He basically said that Glock don't need a new handgun model like other brands do so it still remains basically the same gun with minor upgrades in the looks and internals but they all look the "same" as the original model. Like SIG, Walther, Smith&Wesson etc they all have totally different handgun models for example.

They’re called night sights

Either use a Glock45 Gen5 MOS or if you have the cash, Glock19X

@@chspg_alvis 19X is the way. *biased because I own 2 and soon to be a 3rd one.*

@@kreevisful Hope you'll enjoy your 3rd one man. 💪

@@chspg_alvis Thanks brother! Stay frosty. 💪

Inside holster it’s abt the same size of my M&P full size 9mm

How did it go?

​@@RT-qz5ci hey there. Picked it up. Have been to the range several times with it. It is incredibly easy and comfortable to shoot! Great gun. Especially as I am a lefty. People pick on Glocks. But they are truly a work horse. Boring to look at, but I love it. And I stand corrected. Got the Glock 19 vs 17. Little smaller. 15 vs 17 rounds. Fired the 17 Gen 5 too. Both amazing

@@kevini4295 ive got both. Great guns. Good luck

That's a nice gun.

I myself highly suggest new Trijicon HDs in orange. I added them to my used Glock 22 gen 4 pistol. Some like HD/XR 3 dot sights but I'm not crazy about the thin front Glock post. I would NOT advise buying Tru Glo TFX pro Glock sights! I put them on my used Glock 41 .45acp gen 4. The front post gets loose, twists a lot! Not a good, stable design.

Eren, I’m sure that most people would just plainly say yes to that question. Especially concerning the reputation for Glocks. However, for a first time owner, I wouldn’t typically recommend a Glock as your first. There is an inherent learning curve when I comes to shooting handguns and then again shooting them accurately. Glocks are great all around guns and have a reputation for being really reliable in any circumstance. The problem I have with them for a first time gun owner is the striker fire. I have found not just for myself but also when training newer people that hammer fired guns are just all around more enjoyable to shoot but require less of a learning curve to shoot accurately. (Shooting inaccurately can be the most frustrating thing to a new person). For that reason I would recommend the Sig P226, Beretta M9 or any Beretta 92 series of firearms. Both of those have very intuitive and reliable controls and have a proven track record for reliability. I know that they tend to be slightly higher in price compared to Glocks but at the end of the day, you are protecting your life or others? Right? Both of them have a double action/single action trigger. Manual safety. And de-cocker that rides the hammer forward safely without you firing. Also, both are full-size metal frame firearms leading to less felt recoil, more for you to grip on to and both of those will lead to better accuracy. I hope that’s able to help you in your choice and if you have any other questions, let me know.

@@GunBoxTherapy hey man, I really appreciate your answer to my question. This is definitely something I will have to sit down and think about before blindly buying the most popular firearm. Thanks for your help, and best wishes for the growth of yourself and your channel ❤️

@@erenjeager5290 You weren't doing it blindly..you were doing your research. My first firearm was a Glock 17 gen 5 and I have never looked back. A few months later I purchased a 43x and love that as well. There is nothing wrong with buying the most popular firearm, it usually is the most popular for a reason. With that being said I am very new to this world and I would certainly listen to someone with more experience then me like @gunBox Therapy

@@GunBoxTherapyI slightly disagree with your opinion here. Striker fired pistols reduce the need to worry about decockers and safeties on a MUCH lighter trigger by virtue of their action. The mushy trigger of the Glock, the reliability, the ease of disassembly, the many many variations of essentially the same pistol etc. all help make Glock an amazing 1st time owners pistol. Accuracy takes time no matter what build you go with. Putting it simply, Glock is the Honda civic of the gun world. There’s bigger badder things out there, maybe even prettier, but this thing just works.

@@justinsane11 I agree. The lack of controls like a decocker, safety, hammer...I think lacking all that teaches a first time gun owner the fundamentals first. Dont aim this gun at something you arent willing to destroy, dont put your finger on the trigger until youre ready to shoot... the honda civic comment is true. This is a gun with just a trigger, learn how to pick it up, aim it, and hit what your aiming at...THEN learn how to use a safety, a decocker, a weapon light, unholstering, threaded barrel blah blah.

Thanks man! I appreciate the encouragement. Since this video I’ve made a lot of upgrades to my quality (edits, camera, mic, lighting…etc).

Yoo what's up

@@swaelee9064 Nothing mutch, how about you?

@@Der420Botaniker am good

@@Der420Botaniker so you interested in getting any traps?

Ohh I believe they are already turning into that category. They aren’t in the same category as the 1911 and I think it’ll be a while before they are there but you are right, many people are taking their design and making it much much better both in a functional way and aesthetic way.

$20ish dollar magazines, only 35 parts, armorer courses in virtually every state, 3D printable firearm, Glock-tool maintenance, machine pistol variant, and striker control device gadget capable makes it just as competitive as it was 40 years ago still.

What’s a better option?

The competition is catching up to Glock. But I still think it would be a long time before they can surpass Glock's handgun market dominance. What makes Glock harder to beat is their huge accesories ecosystem.

Yea but Glock aftermarket is like no other. That’s what make Glock the top brand.

No reason for this piece of polymer and metal to not be cheaper than a smartphone.

btw, thanks for video 😅

Gen 5 trigger is slightly better. I prefer the gen 4 myself.

Gen 5 better in every way boy

Yes

I've owned my gen 5 Glock 26 9x19mm for around 3+ years. I added a few upgrades, parts. True Precision TiN 9mm barrel, Tango Down slide stop/Vickers mag release, LWD 🐺 extractor, Glock Store stainless steel guide rod, 16lb; NP3 coated 3.5lb trigger connector. The 26 9mm is a solid, well made ccw pistol. The DLC black surface holds up well; kydex polymer holsters.

Sounds like hella good customization. I imagine at this point it's something better than the 19. But that's for you to answer. @@DavidLLambertmobile

I found this video again. I return after a while to confirm that despite loving G34 Gen 5 the most... I got The Springfield Echelon. That is just dem good stuff 😂😂🤣🤣👍👍😭😭📝📝 @@DavidLLambertmobile
