Lol. I live in cali... ya apparently a pistol grip attached to a rifle is an evil feature? What constitutes and definition of evil as it pertains to rifles? Only in Calif.
The glock is an easy gun to shoot. And it's probably the most practical and effective choice. But I have field tested and occasionally abused a 92FS since 1998 and I still trust it with my life. It is still as reliable as the day I bought it. One failure to feed and one stovepipe in 22 years. I'm not as good as I once was, but the gun still is.
I love my M9 stupid accurate, however I carry a 1911 I hand fitted myself. I don’t recommend anyone doing that unless you really want to study the platform and learn, be ready to spend ridiculous amounts of money also lol
@Maximus Masiran someone drank the Kool aid. Not defending 1911’s but there are other guns equal or better than Glock. M&P, P10C, VP9, PPQ, APX, 92fs, P226, CZ75………
@Maximus Masiran you’re too closed minded to talk Guns. You think only one handgun is good enough haha. I’m not a peasant in a third world country military so my opinion on firearms is invalid haha
Just got my first handgun and she's a GEN 5 GLOCK 34 with the Front serrations. I just put the Holosun SCS and added an XS Orange Bigdot iron sight as backup. I discovered that with the bigdot, It acts as an optical ANCHOR and gets the SCS reticle on target stupid fast. In addition, if the reticle should ever fail, the square nature of the optic encloses the Bigdot and it works just as good anyways! Id say its like a analog red dot!! Try this combo out!
That's pretty ignorant. Why does having gear say I don't train? I train regularly while simultaneously giving myself every possible advantage. In a real situation, regardless of training, adrenaline will surge. It's possible that a primary site could fail. Why not have a backup and train with it? If it seems like a handicap so be it. At the end of the day I'd rather be alive with the other guy cursing me and saying he cheated! as he goes down. If it's economically feasible there's nothing wrong with embracing Tech. Ego driven, Machismo hard-headedness doesn't win fights.
It’s a thick rubber-band wrapped from the tip of the index finger around the thumb and held by the pinkie trigger...or nothing. He’d still manage to put the eye out of one of his targets, then reload faster than I ever could...
Beautiful handgun; albeit, quite overpriced in most locations.. I KNOW.. That German thing.. (I am partly by past, but I cannot find the discount code for me, nor the option to SOT purchase a MP7). :p.
@@bornreadyproductions dude, I don't know why he called the Glock ugly. i think that I see it used so much IRL that it becomes almost cool because of how often I see it. Also, those extended base plate mags? Hot.
i like how you still kept the gun faced down range while running towards the camera pretty sure you kept that gun discipline in mind while doing the drill
this was made 2 years ago when law enforcement and military were primarily using glocks because they were real good. Now theyre all switching over to Sigs because they made a better handgun this time around, although military guys unless theyre an MP, arent going to use their handgun all that often because their rifles are so much better at everything.
I had both before I lost them in a very tragic boating accident.I preferred the M&p 2.0C over the glock.Hate that I lost both of them the same day though😪
In my experience, there are a number of handguns that fall into this category. The only difference, is Glock is the only one coming at under $500. My new service size pistol is a Sig M11A1. It's at around 5,000 rds with zero malfunctions. Same goes for FN, and HK. To get the same reliability with other models, you usually have to spend twice as much.
Oh you know just an Energy drink, an extended release adderal, and a couple fat lines of clean coke from his operator buddies who smuggle it out of South America 🤣
@@kokonanana1 too many to name honestly, Glocks just been doing dependable striker fired polymers for a very long time. Glocks are the "Honda" of fighter arms, IMVHO.
Buy a stock glock and a shit load of ammo and just shoot. I don’t look to Lucas for advice on leg day, but he pretty much always nails Shooting advice. Don’t get wrapped up in the bs and accessories, rounds down range for training is what counts.
Last year I looked and looked and literally was able to try everything. Came down to the Sig and the Glock 19X. I decided on the Glock and I am glad I did. My brother got the Sig I was looking at that won the contract for the U.S. armed forces. He ended up having to send it in twice. It was not drop safe. Had to have a big wide trigger put on it by Sig. My Glock has worked great.
Doesn't mean the Sig isn't a good firearm. Just means that it has some issues that needs to be worked out. The GLOCKS have had little change over the years they've been around so yeah....you aren't going to see many issues with them, then again, you aren't going to see any real new innovations either. Wouldn't want to ruin their reputation for reliability based solely on innovation stagnation.
I've been wanting a glock for a while now, my edc is a taurus G3c and I know it's a taurus but it's never let me down and I've never had a malfunction for $300 it's a great gun!
Lol if you find a awesome track record with shit loads of on field experience then yes it's sexy, just like 1911s and sig p226, only thing Glock throughs as a curve ball is it's cheap compared to other proven handguns
I called CNN about chainsaw attachment. They responded with we will cover this story...after looking into such deadly attachments they are calling for a ban on the chainsaw attachment.
Glock may not be the best for any specific occasion but it's above average overall for all types of situation in my opinion. Also I think that glock trigger should be kept stock unless you are purely using it for competition because you are tinkering with one of Glock's biggest selling points which is it's reliability. Of course, that's just my opinion and again, if it's for competition, trigger upgrade is probably needed. Also, I think people haven't really shot enough of one gun to really break-in the trigger to get a true feel of its full potential. Because after a thousand rounds or so, the trigger does get much better in pretty much all cases. But I guess it's not that easy, a lot of people don't shoot that much in just one gun especially when they have too many guns in their collection..lol. So they don't shoot enough of any one pistol to truly break-in the trigger.
Owned, shot, built, hunted with, & carried Glocks for decades & I absolutely have grown to admire the simplicity of a 35 year track record that speaks for itself about The Glock pistol line. Glock makes so many different guns from G17 through G48 patent numbers but I chose Glock because of my own experience with many different models over decades of reliability & easy to replace parts that are economical & very easy to find about anywhere.
I've been saying this for over ten yrs now. When I was nearing my 21st birthday, I knew I was gonna buy my first handgun as soon as I received my new updated ID. At the time, I didn't know a lot about pistols (was more into archery) and did a ton of research beforehand. I ended up buying a glock 21 as my first handgun because of their reputation. No other pistol could go through those torture tests and still perform the way glock does (at their price point), not to mention that millions of LE and special ops around the world also rely on them. Like he said, "they have a proven track record."
"No other pistol could go through those torture tests..." 😂😂😂 Obviously you never heard about the Offensive Handgun Weapon System (OHWS) Program and/or the USP line of pistols from Heckler and Koch!
@Duda4711 you're talking about a weapon that's over 3 times the cost of a glock. Not even the same comparison. That's why I specified "price point". Poor folk like me can't afford those guns.
Join IDPA. Your local gun club probably runs a version that's rule based competition but in a relaxed atmosphere. Friends helping friends become more competent carriers.
While I can’t argue with your choice; I also feel it’s ridiculous to say that it’s that only company that will preform right out of the box. But that’s just my personal opinion.
It's just his opinion. You'll find testimonials of several brands and models from thousands of people on the internet too. I've shot thousands of rounds through a S&W M&P and a Springfield XD with zero failures. Good ammo, loaded into a quality magazine will run through a good gun, end of story. People that act like a Glock has never failed are chuckle fucks. Reliability isn't the only reason why military and police are carrying the gun. It's super cheap, especially bought in volume. Buying a gun, loading it and holstering it is stupidity defined anyway. You should buy the gun and run several boxes of ammo with the magazines you intend to use in the gun. Then trust your life to it.
ThatGuyThatDoesStuff You are correct; however, I think it’s important to deal with facts. I think it’s quite irresponsible to run a Chanel based on firearm education while simultaneously making misleading comments. I don’t know every single one of his or anyone’s personal experiences saying the only one brand that is trust worthy makes no sense at all. Glocks are fantastic weapons and you could definitely make a case for the being the best. But implying that all other companies pail in comparison is counterintuitive to firearm education.
Yep, I purchased a Colt 1911 gov model in the 80's, fired 500 rounds through it before I cleaned it with no issue. I shot the barrel out of that gun with only a handful of issues, mostly failure to reach battery from using lead handloads. I've run many 1000's of rounds through my SA XDm and XD compact(my daily carry guns) with no issues.
@@Yournotawhat You have to keep in mind that this is 2 years old. I dont watch this channel regularly so I have no idea what his stance or videos today are like but 2 years is a lot of time to learn
ST4R3 as I previously stated he is entitled to any opinion he so chooses to have. As I also previously stated above when making videos to inform the public about firearms research and education are a huge factor. If he is attempting to educate the public saying or implying a singular brand is the only trustworthy option I would say that is misleading and ill informed. The gentleman just about your comment comment is excellent proof of such.
Lucas, you are 100% correct. Had not fired my Glock 23 in over 17 years; was secured in a safe. First time out of the safe a few weeks ago, like it was brand new. Glock . . . most reliable weapon . . . period!!!
They (Glocks) may not truly be perfection, but when I reach for a pistol to carry, work or duty, I will grab a Glock. They just work! Simplicity, plain and simple.
I agree it doesn’t matter how it looks, but feel is important. For people that grew up shooting like I did or possibly you it’s less so But to a first time gun buyer, or to someone that just wants a single handgun to defend themselves it is important to have a gun that is as comfortable to hold as possible while maintaining that reliability. I love glocks but that’s sure as hell not what I want to take to the range for plinking or to run drills because glocks torque the shit out of my wrist. And god forbid a less experienced shooter need to defend themselves but fails to do so because they struggle to index the firearm properly or fails to achieve a proper grip which pulls them off target. For some people getting in that range time and practicing is a lot easier to do with a Sig P365 or a Walther PPQ both guns I trust my life with 100% but may be a lot more comfortable to an individual.
@@blakedavis2447 completely understand that, every handgun will fit someone’s hands at least a little different. My comment was just to point out that feel is important especially for less experienced shooters or people that don’t necessarily want multiple firearms. He was obviously biased, I’m not a glock hater but I’m also not a glock fan boy that says “feel and comfort isn’t a factor whatsoever” like this guy did to a platform of over 900,000 people. On top of that he also chose a glock 17 which is entirely unpractical to Conceal for the vast majority of people. I don’t like it when guys make a statement like “glock is the only gun I trust with my life out of the box” especially to such a large audience. My PPQ is just as reliable out of the box, has a significantly better trigger, the sights are way better than glocks stock sights, holds the same number of rounds as a 19, and is way more comfortable (to me and a lot of other people) there is more to it than “they just work”
@@hiimcarl4419 good points , personally I feel like people over exaggerate when they don’t like something popular but even I can admit that I just strait up don’t like any of glocks full sized guns , they’re just too big and awkward for my hands but I think the g19 is really good
I love my 92FS with tactical rail and mounted light. It was the first brand new handgun that I ever bought and like your M9A1 it has never failed. I do find it a little too big for everyday concealed carry which is why instead it's permanent home is bedside in case of any unwanted bumps in the night. I trust it for such important duty because my best friend in high school had one and I can't tell you how many thousands of rounds we shot through it and it never once jammed up. He still has it 30 years later.
"If you have good fundamentals, you should be able to pick up any pistol and make it work." This is a great statement.Poor shooters always blame equipment before themselves.If you had good fundamentals then should have good hits regardless of the platform.
So why you dont see glocks on shooting competitions? Because why not to use more accurately shooting gun which will mean that you can be less accurate technically. Want best accuracy and rapid steady fire? Buy CZ Shadow 2 or SigSauer Legion
Glock has a genius marketing plan, give or give huge discounts to law enforcement. But it ends there. I own a glock, I own an XDM and I own a sig. For context I am not a competitive shooter. I have on the other hand deployed to combat 5x. 3 times to Iraq and twice to afghanistan. The glock is reliable, this is true; however training for combat is difficult, you cant mimick the fear and adrenaline that comes with it, no matter what anyone says that is going to be the #1 factor. You cant train for it. But you can make it easier to manage with equipment and said equipment features. Glock is great for a concieled weapon, but have you ever noticed the tiny little stiff operation features? You can train and be smooth AF with them. But now lets add that fear, your hands shaking, the disorientation, out of breath, heart pumping in your ears, the loudness, the screaming and this is only a few things added. All your training with those smooth tranistions, and tiny little buttons just went out the window. Now look at an XDM. Your going to find those operational features no matter what, and it is just as reliable. And right now the military is using sigs. Because it beat all other competition, including glock. So ya, glocks are great out of the box (sometimes) but your not trusting your life out of the box. Now to sit back and watch the hate mail from glock die hards lol.
Did my LTC Range Qualification with a brand new Glock 19 right out of the case, never used it before, and scored a 250. I use to hate Glocks until I bought one, now I love them.
This man could strip, oil his gun and put it back together before anyone would be able to pull the trigger. Just some of the random stuff he does showing it off is so smooth asf
Glock is the ONLY one you trust to work out of the box? That's a bit hyperbolic, but hey, it's your opinion. We are fortunate to live in a market that is saturated with excellent handguns. At least half a dozen of them are stellar options.
I'd go the opposite direction. I think it's incredibly foolish to not test any firearms out of the box without shooting them first. How do you know there isn't a manufacturing defect in that particular weapon? How do you know that mag doesn't have a manufacturing defect? There is always a failure rate in manufacturing no matter who made it. Unlikely yes, but why not just shoot it?
First mag of 17+1 in an inch group at 7 yards, then 32 rounds group A,B in ~2.25 inch at 10 yards. Super accurate G17 gen5 that I can put my life on 👍😃. Love all your videos Lucas, thanks!
Just put a down payment on my first high quality handgun, a gen 4 glock 17. This video gives me extreme confidence and reassurance that i have made the right decision.
Still have my Glock 19 that I purchased new in the early 90s several thousand rounds of all kinds of ammo has been through that piece, I agree that Glocks are extremely well built and reliable
@@shantiec8999 It malfunctioned all the time which is fixable if you're willing to replace parts and work on it. The grip was too small for me. The safety comes off by just dry firing once or twice. The safety can also feel like it's off but still needs one last click upwards. A desaster if you were trying to defend with it. It was old and worn and also the older model. I guess they improved a lot with the new design.
@@TobyCostaRica LOL. So much more issues with the P365. I have one and it shoots much better than I expected but the history is such that I still can't trust it. The Shield 2.0 is a great gun also but the P365 is so small to have 10 rounds. Great gun but I'm not sure that it's superior YET. Good luck.
Yourself, Hickock45 and John Lovell was the reason I bought my G19 Gen 4 at the beginning of the year. 400 rounds through it, 5 different ammo manufacturers, not a single malfunction. Glock has my vote.
Fired over 2000 rounds in the academy in my Glock G23 never cleaned it once and no malfunctions. The only problem I had was I had a magazine that swelled. Bottom plate would bust and my ammo would dump out. As far as the gun itself not one problem. I have a G19 gen 5 now and love it.
Loonytoones85 Hickok has had more trigger time than your above average shooter... But hey you don't consider John Lovell to be enough? Well how about Garandthumb, and shit Lucas is a monster himself. Almost everyone that I know that shoots has a Glock of some sort. I didn't understand why but I ended up buying a G19 even after trying the CZ-P10C. Admittedly the only gun I really loved was a Sig P229 but I just don't have the money to drop on one.
I carry a Glock, but I have a lot of respect for the M&P line. While not too scientific, the M&P performs comparably to a Glock in "torture tests", and the Glock only barely outperforms it. If I had to ditch my Glock, an M&P 2.0 would be my next go-to.
I bought a gen4 g17 almost 8 years ago. I'll never own another pistol. I recently modded the shit out of it too. I compensated it, put night sights on it, a laser sight and a fit-over grip. It runs even better-er now! Times are strange, so I figure I should be ready for anything, especially with a dystopia-causing crisis unfolding right now.
CAESAR 7379 I’m a Sig guy with three variants of the 226 and love them. I hate when some tells you “I have a glock” it’s always mumbled like they are ashamed. They are great guns and as long as you can operate it effectively and have fun at the range, who cares?
I’ve heard more than one Glock-toting instructor say that the only pistol they’d switch for would be a CZ. Heard it so many times I went and bought a CZ. Now I know why.
I have a Glock 19x and I love it never failed me, idk why everyone says these weapons are ugly I think the boxy look looks clean and simple and I know it can perform
Glocks …… I have four of them and never had one issue of jamming or malfunction. To me that’s critical and is the foundation of me going with Glock over any other auto loader . The best part is when switching guns, different caliber, the feel and function is essentially the exact same for muscle memory and I really like that ! The Glock is the solid “ Work Truck” of the gun industry 🤩✌️🇺🇸 oh and yes two of my glocks are made here in the USA 🇺🇸
I been carrying a Glock for my duty weapon right out of the academy the Glock 19 .-9 mm but now that I'm retired I carry the Glock model 38 - 45 Gap had my Gap for about 13 years it's the most underrated Glock and one of the best.
Jason Grant yes for the same price or less. Glocks don’t compare to the more expensive Sigs and HKs. For less or the same the M&Ps are better, the CZ P10 is better, Walther PPQ, Springfield XDm etc. BTW his police department and government agency comment is pointless because for them it’s all about price and Glock gives guns away at cost as a form of advertising. It’s not 1995 anymore. Everything has changed (except Glock)
Very untrue. Still a lot of guns that need to be broken in first, or small issues worked out. Glocks, particularly the G17, not the case. What he did in this video is not replicatable by many other manufacturers.
I wouldn't trust any gun from any manufacture with my life before running a couple hundred rounds through it with ball and hollow point ammo. Any manufacture can and does make lemons, including Glocks.
The Hi-Power is great and many will agree with you on that choice. But don't play the age card. They're not as reliable and you have to like the safety features, the style of carrying + the magazine capacity is lower than more modern wonder 9s. They old Glocks and the Hi-Power have one thing in common...they might bite. I personally would go for a pistol highly influenced by the Hi-Power, but better choices on safety features, higher capacity...CZ 75B. I deem the shadows as too heavy for EDC. If the 75B is too heavy or too big...P-01, P-07 or approaching from the Block Isle...P-10C.
Got my Glock 17 gen 3 un April, love the gun to bits, bought so many aftermarket parts for it and ended up taking most of it off cuz the gun in fantastic out of the box.
@Compiler Revolt - I know right, why did Glock make such a durable and reliable gun? I would have gone with the Sig P320 along with it's drop safe failure, trigger failure and weak durability. Or maybe the HK VP9 with it's weak durability, weak recoil spring, flimsy mag release paddles and inability to eat cheap ammo.
Since we are all throwing out opinions here...XDm 10mm, survived 10,000 round torture test, match grade barrel, great trigger and sights right out of the box!!!
XD and XDM are great shooters and great ergonomics, but there is a flaw with their firing pin if you accidentally get oil down in it. For that reason alone, i quit carrying them for defense, but still use for competition.
Mostly true but you also get performance equal or superior to sigs, hk's etc. Even in MAC's fucking circus tests a G17 kicked the hell out of every sig and was arguably on par with the USP 45
@@seraph1926 I have to assume that Glock hired another company to provide triggers, and guide rods, then. Because we all know that Glock triggers are hot garbage, and that the plastic guide rods eventually crack. Sig won because they produced a far superior piece. It met mission requirements, where Glocks did not.
P110 K9 Solutions I'm no fan boy, moron. I'm the one using facts and logic. I've got tens of thousands of rounds through glocks and never had a guide rod problem. Ever. Second, it's not a 1911 trigger and never will be. Sig produced a superior product, huh? You mean the pistol that doubles as a grenade? Or the fact that agencies testing pistols intentionally chose criteria that only the 320 would be able to pass because they wanted the 320. Oh, and I carry a 320 and a 229 and they're nothing special.
I don’t care if God himself built the fucking gun I’m going run it before I do anything with it. I just spent over $1300 on a Beretta A400 XPLOR and the first time I take it out it breaks and is 100% useless right now.
Went to my local gun store with the intention of buying a Glock they had on sale. I’m sure if you have average size hands the Glock just is fine, but I have very large hands and the Glock just didn’t feel right. The salesman suggested I try the H&K VP9. I'm so glad he did. I saw a post in another thread that said, once you’ve held a VP9, anything else feels like a 2x4- completely agree. Comes with small, medium and large back straps and side panels. I put on the large ones as soon as I got home. I also own 2 M&P shields. A shield 9mm is my concealed carry weapon and a 380 EZ is my wife’s pistol. They are not shabby and are made well enough, but don’t compare to the HK quality. I paid a little more than other quality guns out there, but the VP9 is exceptionally well made. My CC instructor, who shoots Glock, commented my VP9 might be the best put together gun he’s ever seen. Although I am a little envious of the variety of Glock accessories available locally, but I’ve become a good customer of HK Parts online!
VP9SK has been amazing, and the accuracy of the HK leaves the Glock in the dust. If price is not a problem, go with the HK. Side note,Lucas is amazing with every weapon he touches, would like to see him burn up the range with a VP9SK!!
Many guns have come out of the military trials recently that are on-par and dare I say better than a Glock. CZ, FN, Sig, HK, Beretta and more. Best time ever for handgun aficionados. It’s not just Glock anymore. I personally recommend the CZ P-07
Errr, and what about those of us who just don't like automatics? I don't believe any of those companies you mentioned make revolvers, though I'd be delighted to be proven wrong...
And there you have it. I always say pick the firearm that doesn't fail you. Glock never fails me, so I trust it with my life. Your CZ doesn't fail you, so I'd advise you to use that. Mileage may very, everyone has their own stories and experiences. Cheers :)
If having a stovepipe is your issue, maybe try melting into the gun more. Get a more firm grip. I carried a 30SF for 3 years as a truck gun and fired 5000 rounds through it over that time period and never had a single malfunction. Now, some people might say only 5k rounds in 3 years?! Well, yes. It wasn't my primary weapon. It was a truck gun and on a few occasions a boat gun. And no, 5 rounds of that 5k most definitely wasn't shot off that boat at a coyote that was trying to eat our dinner at the shore.. I digress. 😂 Glock is a fantastic handgun. There are other fantastic handguns out there. But for a guy that spends alot of money on firearms, glocks are my go to because they're not ridiculously priced, the amount of upgrades out there are ridiculous if you want them, and I have never had a problem firing a glock. They work, every single time.
In that category I would pick USP, however my 1911s have never let my down (much more maintenance on the 1911s. Price has never been a factor for me. Great video and excellent shooting! Thanks
Same. Barrier to entry with USP is the price, but even though I've never had a problem with 1911s (other than a GSG but that's a .22LR and not a real 1911) I'd personally go USP before 1911 or Glock. When your day-to-day hits a point where you need a firearm for protection and self-defense, you're not going to care that a USP costs $300 more than a Glock.

Lucas loves and uses Glock so much. I wonder how he’s not in Glock’s pocket yet (as in employed it’s sponsored by them)
Yeah but I clicked on it just to make sure of his fanboy status.
this was made 2 years ago when law enforcement and military were primarily using glocks because they were real good. Now theyre all switching over to Sigs because they made a better handgun this time around, although military guys unless theyre an MP, arent going to use their handgun all that often because their rifles are so much better at everything.
@@bigsandwich1238Do you have a source for this information?
@@bigsandwich1238 you mean the SIGS that the military contract covered and ALL had to be recalled to fix the drop bang issue???
I had both before I lost them in a very tragic boating accident.I preferred the M&p 2.0C over the glock.Hate that I lost both of them the same day though😪
I'll pray for you. That is truly horrible. You have my deepest sympathy. Similarly, and conversely, I lost all my boats in a gunning accident.
I, too, lost my guns in that same accident.... I was in the other boat!
*dramatic violin sting*
Yea I just lost all mine as well
In my experience, there are a number of handguns that fall into this category. The only difference, is Glock is the only one coming at under $500. My new service size pistol is a Sig M11A1. It's at around 5,000 rds with zero malfunctions. Same goes for FN, and HK. To get the same reliability with other models, you usually have to spend twice as much.
My m18 was $600 and came with a decent set of sights so
@@daddoesthings9461 Everyone is entitled to thier choice. The M11 is hands down a better quality pistol though. Not even a question.

@@kokonanana1 too many to name honestly, Glocks just been doing dependable striker fired polymers for a very long time. Glocks are the "Honda" of fighter arms, IMVHO.
Buy a stock glock and a shit load of ammo and just shoot. I don’t look to Lucas for advice on leg day, but he pretty much always nails Shooting advice. Don’t get wrapped up in the bs and accessories, rounds down range for training is what counts.
Yup
exactly !!!!!
Flannel and skinny jeans advice are also welcomed.
That's right
His advice is great for other things too. He just has it down on how to learn to do something and do it well
Last year I looked and looked and literally was able to try everything. Came down to the Sig and the Glock 19X. I decided on the Glock and I am glad I did. My brother got the Sig I was looking at that won the contract for the U.S. armed forces. He ended up having to send it in twice. It was not drop safe. Had to have a big wide trigger put on it by Sig. My Glock has worked great.
i have seen Glocks returned to the factory also. H&K, No Compromise.
Doesn't mean the Sig isn't a good firearm. Just means that it has some issues that needs to be worked out. The GLOCKS have had little change over the years they've been around so yeah....you aren't going to see many issues with them, then again, you aren't going to see any real new innovations either. Wouldn't want to ruin their reputation for reliability based solely on innovation stagnation.
@@ronin2167 if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.
I've been wanting a glock for a while now, my edc is a taurus G3c and I know it's a taurus but it's never let me down and I've never had a malfunction for $300 it's a great gun!
I rock a g2. Aslong as it goes bang the attacker wouldn’t even know what you shot him with haha.
They are really good for the money; I still use glocks but a friend has a G2 and it's pretty amazing.

Glock may not be the best for any specific occasion but it's above average overall for all types of situation in my opinion. Also I think that glock trigger should be kept stock unless you are purely using it for competition because you are tinkering with one of Glock's biggest selling points which is it's reliability. Of course, that's just my opinion and again, if it's for competition, trigger upgrade is probably needed.
Also, I think people haven't really shot enough of one gun to really break-in the trigger to get a true feel of its full potential. Because after a thousand rounds or so, the trigger does get much better in pretty much all cases. But I guess it's not that easy, a lot of people don't shoot that much in just one gun especially when they have too many guns in their collection..lol. So they don't shoot enough of any one pistol to truly break-in the trigger.
Those fast, no look reholsterings are making me wince, Lucas.

chipotlelover82 well said
agreed as well. don't love them either but I own 3 because of how reliable they are
chipotlelover82 Yup same here.
Owned, shot, built, hunted with, & carried Glocks for decades & I absolutely have grown to admire the simplicity of a 35 year track record that speaks for itself about The Glock pistol line. Glock makes so many different guns from G17 through G48 patent numbers but I chose Glock because of my own experience with many different models over decades of reliability & easy to replace parts that are economical & very easy to find about anywhere.
So basically you just bought into the slogan "block, it just works."
I've been saying this for over ten yrs now. When I was nearing my 21st birthday, I knew I was gonna buy my first handgun as soon as I received my new updated ID. At the time, I didn't know a lot about pistols (was more into archery) and did a ton of research beforehand. I ended up buying a glock 21 as my first handgun because of their reputation. No other pistol could go through those torture tests and still perform the way glock does (at their price point), not to mention that millions of LE and special ops around the world also rely on them. Like he said, "they have a proven track record."
"No other pistol could go through those torture tests..." 😂😂😂 Obviously you never heard about the Offensive Handgun Weapon System (OHWS) Program and/or the USP line of pistols from Heckler and Koch!
LEO use them because they are offered a discount by glock.
Updated ID?
You didn't do that much research if you ended up with a glock.
@Duda4711 you're talking about a weapon that's over 3 times the cost of a glock. Not even the same comparison. That's why I specified "price point". Poor folk like me can't afford those guns.
Outdoor shooting seems so much more fun. Especially when you can run a course and drills

@@nickymill I forgot. I think they have a video on getting gun laws passed that tells you.
Don’t forget to move around like a fuckin robot.
While I can’t argue with your choice; I also feel it’s ridiculous to say that it’s that only company that will preform right out of the box. But that’s just my personal opinion.
It's just his opinion. You'll find testimonials of several brands and models from thousands of people on the internet too. I've shot thousands of rounds through a S&W M&P and a Springfield XD with zero failures. Good ammo, loaded into a quality magazine will run through a good gun, end of story.
People that act like a Glock has never failed are chuckle fucks. Reliability isn't the only reason why military and police are carrying the gun. It's super cheap, especially bought in volume.
Buying a gun, loading it and holstering it is stupidity defined anyway. You should buy the gun and run several boxes of ammo with the magazines you intend to use in the gun. Then trust your life to it.
ThatGuyThatDoesStuff You are correct; however, I think it’s important to deal with facts. I think it’s quite irresponsible to run a Chanel based on firearm education while simultaneously making misleading comments. I don’t know every single one of his or anyone’s personal experiences saying the only one brand that is trust worthy makes no sense at all. Glocks are fantastic weapons and you could definitely make a case for the being the best. But implying that all other companies pail in comparison is counterintuitive to firearm education.
Yep, I purchased a Colt 1911 gov model in the 80's, fired 500 rounds through it before I cleaned it with no issue.
I shot the barrel out of that gun with only a handful of issues, mostly failure to reach battery from using lead handloads.
I've run many 1000's of rounds through my SA XDm and XD compact(my daily carry guns) with no issues.
@@Yournotawhat You have to keep in mind that this is 2 years old. I dont watch this channel regularly so I have no idea what his stance or videos today are like but 2 years is a lot of time to learn
ST4R3 as I previously stated he is entitled to any opinion he so chooses to have. As I also previously stated above when making videos to inform the public about firearms research and education are a huge factor. If he is attempting to educate the public saying or implying a singular brand is the only trustworthy option I would say that is misleading and ill informed. The gentleman just about your comment comment is excellent proof of such.
Lucas, you are 100% correct. Had not fired my Glock 23 in over 17 years; was secured in a safe. First time out of the safe a few weeks ago, like it was brand new. Glock . . . most reliable weapon . . . period!!!
No they aren't. Back in the 80s maybe. But not even then. They aren't even top 5 in the torture tests.
Most overrated weapon ever.

John wilkes booth would like a glock as well
Let me guess. One that shoots. That sounds like something the Bot would say.
I frankly LOVE the glock look.
“It doesn’t matter how it looks or how it feels” oh boy the number of Glock haters are going to lose their mind
They (Glocks) may not truly be perfection, but when I reach for a pistol to carry, work or duty, I will grab a Glock. They just work! Simplicity, plain and simple.
I agree it doesn’t matter how it looks, but feel is important. For people that grew up shooting like I did or possibly you it’s less so But to a first time gun buyer, or to someone that just wants a single handgun to defend themselves it is important to have a gun that is as comfortable to hold as possible while maintaining that reliability. I love glocks but that’s sure as hell not what I want to take to the range for plinking or to run drills because glocks torque the shit out of my wrist. And god forbid a less experienced shooter need to defend themselves but fails to do so because they struggle to index the firearm properly or fails to achieve a proper grip which pulls them off target. For some people getting in that range time and practicing is a lot easier to do with a Sig P365 or a Walther PPQ both guns I trust my life with 100% but may be a lot more comfortable to an individual.
@@hiimcarl4419 I think they’re pretty middle of the road comfort wise , not the most comfortable but definitely not the worst
@@blakedavis2447 completely understand that, every handgun will fit someone’s hands at least a little different. My comment was just to point out that feel is important especially for less experienced shooters or people that don’t necessarily want multiple firearms. He was obviously biased, I’m not a glock hater but I’m also not a glock fan boy that says “feel and comfort isn’t a factor whatsoever” like this guy did to a platform of over 900,000 people. On top of that he also chose a glock 17 which is entirely unpractical to Conceal for the vast majority of people. I don’t like it when guys make a statement like “glock is the only gun I trust with my life out of the box” especially to such a large audience. My PPQ is just as reliable out of the box, has a significantly better trigger, the sights are way better than glocks stock sights, holds the same number of rounds as a 19, and is way more comfortable (to me and a lot of other people) there is more to it than “they just work”
@@hiimcarl4419 good points , personally I feel like people over exaggerate when they don’t like something popular but even I can admit that I just strait up don’t like any of glocks full sized guns , they’re just too big and awkward for my hands but I think the g19 is really good
Had zero issues so far with my Beretta M9A1, from right out the box to now.
I love my 92FS with tactical rail and mounted light. It was the first brand new handgun that I ever bought and like your M9A1 it has never failed. I do find it a little too big for everyday concealed carry which is why instead it's permanent home is bedside in case of any unwanted bumps in the night. I trust it for such important duty because my best friend in high school had one and I can't tell you how many thousands of rounds we shot through it and it never once jammed up. He still has it 30 years later.
My px4 storm is the best I have shot! The rotating barrel is the future of handguns.
PX4 is a criminally underrated gun
That gun is a military legend too
Cool, but you miss the point of the video.
"If you have good fundamentals, you should be able to pick up any pistol and make it work."
This is a great statement.Poor shooters always blame equipment before themselves.If you had good fundamentals then should have good hits regardless of the platform.
So why you dont see glocks on shooting competitions?
Because why not to use more accurately shooting gun which will mean that you can be less accurate technically.
Want best accuracy and rapid steady fire? Buy CZ Shadow 2 or SigSauer Legion
@@ebeb9156 It doesn't matter. Just train.
I'm convinced Lucas is a robot. Very measured and precise. Guy has got some serious skills.
Glock has a genius marketing plan, give or give huge discounts to law enforcement. But it ends there. I own a glock, I own an XDM and I own a sig. For context I am not a competitive shooter. I have on the other hand deployed to combat 5x. 3 times to Iraq and twice to afghanistan. The glock is reliable, this is true; however training for combat is difficult, you cant mimick the fear and adrenaline that comes with it, no matter what anyone says that is going to be the #1 factor. You cant train for it. But you can make it easier to manage with equipment and said equipment features. Glock is great for a concieled weapon, but have you ever noticed the tiny little stiff operation features? You can train and be smooth AF with them. But now lets add that fear, your hands shaking, the disorientation, out of breath, heart pumping in your ears, the loudness, the screaming and this is only a few things added. All your training with those smooth tranistions, and tiny little buttons just went out the window. Now look at an XDM. Your going to find those operational features no matter what, and it is just as reliable. And right now the military is using sigs. Because it beat all other competition, including glock. So ya, glocks are great out of the box (sometimes) but your not trusting your life out of the box. Now to sit back and watch the hate mail from glock die hards lol.
I choose the H&K VP 9 reliable and keep with me all the time
Expensive as fuck for carry but yeah its reliable
Me too . Hk for me always!! And expensive as fuck ? If 50-150$ more dollars than a Glock is expensive as fuck
My dad chose the same, but he spent an extra $50 for a burnt bronze slide, looks great, he loves it :)
I chose the FK BRNO Field pistol on 7.5 to EDC...
HnK baby...USP45....and I have my usp45 compact for edc....with mag extended full 17+1. Compact 13+1 and that’s 45
The biggest surprise:
Lucas pulled out a 17 and not a 19.
Would have been a 19, but I had a brand new 17 from this week haha
Proved the point of literally "OUT OF THE BOX"
T.REX ARMS haha, for shooting range thoes the barrel lenth make that big difference?
Did my LTC Range Qualification with a brand new Glock 19 right out of the case, never used it before, and scored a 250. I use to hate Glocks until I bought one, now I love them.

It's like this is the only sane comment on this video.
Robert haha.. thanks. I guess that's a sad indictment of the widespread biases (and emotions) within our community.
Canik TP9
I'd go the opposite direction. I think it's incredibly foolish to not test any firearms out of the box without shooting them first. How do you know there isn't a manufacturing defect in that particular weapon? How do you know that mag doesn't have a manufacturing defect? There is always a failure rate in manufacturing no matter who made it. Unlikely yes, but why not just shoot it?
First mag of 17+1 in an inch group at 7 yards, then 32 rounds group A,B in ~2.25 inch at 10 yards. Super accurate G17 gen5 that I can put my life on 👍😃. Love all your videos Lucas, thanks!
Just put a down payment on my first high quality handgun, a gen 4 glock 17. This video gives me extreme confidence and reassurance that i have made the right decision.
Still have my Glock 19 that I purchased new in the early 90s several thousand rounds of all kinds of ammo has been through that piece, I agree that Glocks are extremely well built and reliable

@@Jedi_Jed what is it you don't like about it
@@shantiec8999 It malfunctioned all the time which is fixable if you're willing to replace parts and work on it. The grip was too small for me. The safety comes off by just dry firing once or twice. The safety can also feel like it's off but still needs one last click upwards. A desaster if you were trying to defend with it. It was old and worn and also the older model. I guess they improved a lot with the new design.
S&W Shield 2.0 is the best "Out of the box" CCW - change my mind.
For the price maybe, but imo P365 is superior
@Phoenix 888 Elixir 333 I should have qualified "compact" CCW.
I like my 1.0, 43x, PPs and APX Carry all about the same. The shield and 43 have way more rounds through them though
@@TobyCostaRica LOL. So much more issues with the P365. I have one and it shoots much better than I expected but the history is such that I still can't trust it. The Shield 2.0 is a great gun also but the P365 is so small to have 10 rounds. Great gun but I'm not sure that it's superior YET. Good luck.
Revisiting the coments two years later and just as I thought Lucas managed to piss off a whole bunch of 1911 fan boys 😂
Yourself, Hickock45 and John Lovell was the reason I bought my G19 Gen 4 at the beginning of the year. 400 rounds through it, 5 different ammo manufacturers, not a single malfunction. Glock has my vote.
Weeooooowww 400 rounds.
Kylef7735 the video did mention “out the box reliability” , but I will give you a shout at a 1000 without any failures and then again at 10 000....
Fired over 2000 rounds in the academy in my Glock G23 never cleaned it once and no malfunctions. The only problem I had was I had a magazine that swelled. Bottom plate would bust and my ammo would dump out. As far as the gun itself not one problem. I have a G19 gen 5 now and love it.
The list of people that trust Glock is much longer.
Loonytoones85 Hickok has had more trigger time than your above average shooter... But hey you don't consider John Lovell to be enough? Well how about Garandthumb, and shit Lucas is a monster himself. Almost everyone that I know that shoots has a Glock of some sort. I didn't understand why but I ended up buying a G19 even after trying the CZ-P10C. Admittedly the only gun I really loved was a Sig P229 but I just don't have the money to drop on one.
M&P 2.0 😉 for this guy
Same here
I carry a Glock, but I have a lot of respect for the M&P line. While not too scientific, the M&P performs comparably to a Glock in "torture tests", and the Glock only barely outperforms it. If I had to ditch my Glock, an M&P 2.0 would be my next go-to.
Same here!
I wish I had the skills and the reflexes of this freaking dude That is a very very skilled individual I’d like to be that good
The more times a gun channel youtuber racks the slide of a pistol very quickly, the cooler they are. It’s just science.
Really dig that cold start drill 💪💪💪 new bay also looks very nice 👍
Not a fan of Glocks but I can appreciate and respect what they are. For me? I go for the Walther PPQ with the paddle mag. Yep...the paddle mag :D

DatGrunt the paddle mag release is brilliant! Too bad the American gun market is so biased against such a simple innovation...
Definitely. #PaddleReleaseMatters
Paddle mag release are the shit!
There’s always an expert with an opinion, this video is a perfect example of opinions being like noses, everyone has one.
I bought a gen4 g17 almost 8 years ago. I'll never own another pistol. I recently modded the shit out of it too. I compensated it, put night sights on it, a laser sight and a fit-over grip. It runs even better-er now!
Times are strange, so I figure I should be ready for anything, especially with a dystopia-causing crisis unfolding right now.
I’m a Glock fanboy myself but I can attest that the sig P226 and HK P30 hold an equal track record for dependability and reliability.
CAESAR 7379 I’m a Sig guy with three variants of the 226 and love them. I hate when some tells you “I have a glock” it’s always mumbled like they are ashamed. They are great guns and as long as you can operate it effectively and have fun at the range, who cares?

I've tried many handguns. Over in South Africa we have loads of CZ fan boys who will insult glocks, but my Glock has never failed me.
I’ve heard more than one Glock-toting instructor say that the only pistol they’d switch for would be a CZ. Heard it so many times I went and bought a CZ. Now I know why.
Striker or da/sa CZs?
P-07 (so DA/SA) but I got it before the P-10c existed. Got to get my hands on that one. That’s the true Glock slayer.
I have a Glock 19x and I love it never failed me, idk why everyone says these weapons are ugly I think the boxy look looks clean and simple and I know it can perform
Yeet cannon?
Edit: damnit
Glocks …… I have four of them and never had one issue of jamming or malfunction. To me that’s critical and is the foundation of me going with Glock over any other auto loader . The best part is when switching guns, different caliber, the feel and function is essentially the exact same for muscle memory and I really like that ! The Glock is the solid “ Work Truck” of the gun industry 🤩✌️🇺🇸 oh and yes two of my glocks are made here in the USA 🇺🇸
I been carrying a Glock for my duty weapon right out of the academy the Glock 19 .-9 mm but now that I'm retired I carry the Glock model 38 - 45 Gap had my Gap for about 13 years it's the most underrated Glock and one of the best.

Jason Grant yes for the same price or less. Glocks don’t compare to the more expensive Sigs and HKs. For less or the same the M&Ps are better, the CZ P10 is better, Walther PPQ, Springfield XDm etc. BTW his police department and government agency comment is pointless because for them it’s all about price and Glock gives guns away at cost as a form of advertising. It’s not 1995 anymore. Everything has changed (except Glock)
Very untrue. Still a lot of guns that need to be broken in first, or small issues worked out. Glocks, particularly the G17, not the case. What he did in this video is not replicatable by many other manufacturers.
Cz has been making great guns out of the box since 1975.... longer then glock
All right....cz4life brother
Cz75?
Yup!!
Than
@@mr.c.3760 that guy....don't be that guy.
M&p shield did that just fine for me
True! Most hand guns require a “break in” of a few hundred rounds.
And all users of the handgun.
I wouldn't trust any gun from any manufacture with my life before running a couple hundred rounds through it with ball and hollow point ammo. Any manufacture can and does make lemons, including Glocks.
You're young, Lucas. You never experienced the magnificence that was the Browning Hi-Power.
Trash handgun
The Hi-Power is great and many will agree with you on that choice. But don't play the age card.
They're not as reliable and you have to like the safety features, the style of carrying + the magazine capacity is lower than more modern wonder 9s. They old Glocks and the Hi-Power have one thing in common...they might bite.
I personally would go for a pistol highly influenced by the Hi-Power, but better choices on safety features, higher capacity...CZ 75B. I deem the shadows as too heavy for EDC. If the 75B is too heavy or too big...P-01, P-07 or approaching from the Block Isle...P-10C.
"Aesthetically ugly"
You like to dance close to the fire, huh?
Got my Glock 17 gen 3 un April, love the gun to bits, bought so many aftermarket parts for it and ended up taking most of it off cuz the gun in fantastic out of the box.
A Glock, what a surprise
Compiler Revolt #factsB
Should have used a Hi-Point
@Compiler Revolt - I know right, why did Glock make such a durable and reliable gun? I would have gone with the Sig P320 along with it's drop safe failure, trigger failure and weak durability. Or maybe the HK VP9 with it's weak durability, weak recoil spring, flimsy mag release paddles and inability to eat cheap ammo.
There is a reason for it always coming up as #1.
I was gonna say the same thing
Since we are all throwing out opinions here...XDm 10mm, survived 10,000 round torture test, match grade barrel, great trigger and sights right out of the box!!!
Yep. I carry the XD Mod 2 .45.
This kid doesn't have the life experience so I can't blame him for being ignorant on the subject.
Bobby Booshay 100% is a much better shooter than you.
XD and XDM are great shooters and great ergonomics, but there is a flaw with their firing pin if you accidentally get oil down in it. For that reason alone, i quit carrying them for defense, but still use for competition.
@@mattrust4097 i own a service model xd40 mod.2, i was curious if you could elaborate more on what happens if you get oil in the firing pin. Thanks
I am impressed that somebody who is as young as he looks knows as much about guns as he knows.

"There's a reason the special forces, cops, and militaries around the world use it..."
The reason: Lowest bidder
Mostly true but you also get performance equal or superior to sigs, hk's etc. Even in MAC's fucking circus tests a G17 kicked the hell out of every sig and was arguably on par with the USP 45
@@seraph1926 I have to assume that Glock hired another company to provide triggers, and guide rods, then. Because we all know that Glock triggers are hot garbage, and that the plastic guide rods eventually crack. Sig won because they produced a far superior piece. It met mission requirements, where Glocks did not.
P110 K9 Solutions 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣... OK. Stick to dogs, firearms aren't for you
@@seraph1926 Apparently common sense isn't for you, Mr. Glock Fanboy. Sorry to have offended your delicate feelings with my logic.
P110 K9 Solutions I'm no fan boy, moron. I'm the one using facts and logic. I've got tens of thousands of rounds through glocks and never had a guide rod problem. Ever. Second, it's not a 1911 trigger and never will be. Sig produced a superior product, huh? You mean the pistol that doubles as a grenade? Or the fact that agencies testing pistols intentionally chose criteria that only the 320 would be able to pass because they wanted the 320. Oh, and I carry a 320 and a 229 and they're nothing special.
my grandpa bought a brand new glock that was a lemon. soo i would always test your concealed carry weapon before you carry it!
What was wrong with it?
Name does mean a lot. Some manufacturers have many more recalls than others.
I don’t care if God himself built the fucking gun I’m going run it before I do anything with it. I just spent over $1300 on a Beretta A400 XPLOR and the first time I take it out it breaks and is 100% useless right now.
Went to my local gun store with the intention of buying a Glock they had on sale. I’m sure if you have average size hands the Glock just is fine, but I have very large hands and the Glock just didn’t feel right. The salesman suggested I try the H&K VP9. I'm so glad he did.
I saw a post in another thread that said, once you’ve held a VP9, anything else feels like a 2x4- completely agree. Comes with small, medium and large back straps and side panels. I put on the large ones as soon as I got home.
I also own 2 M&P shields. A shield 9mm is my concealed carry weapon and a 380 EZ is my wife’s pistol. They are not shabby and are made well enough, but don’t compare to the HK quality. I paid a little more than other quality guns out there, but the VP9 is exceptionally well made. My CC instructor, who shoots Glock, commented my VP9 might be the best put together gun he’s ever seen.
Although I am a little envious of the variety of Glock accessories available locally, but I’ve become a good customer of HK Parts online!
VP9SK has been amazing, and the accuracy of the HK leaves the Glock in the dust. If price is not a problem, go with the HK. Side note,Lucas is amazing with every weapon he touches, would like to see him burn up the range with a VP9SK!!
That was an excellent review man. Some great points.
And nice shooting .
Amen!!! Jesus Christ is King 🤴❤
Many guns have come out of the military trials recently that are on-par and dare I say better than a Glock. CZ, FN, Sig, HK, Beretta and more. Best time ever for handgun aficionados. It’s not just Glock anymore. I personally recommend the CZ P-07
@Dale Ross -superior to the glock or superior to CZ FN Sig HK Beretta?
@Dale Ross - what is so bad about Glock? details please
@Dale Ross - isn't a striker fire a faster fire compared to hammer and better for self defense?
@Dale Ross - any other sig model u would recommend in 9mm besides 1911? thanks for replies
Errr, and what about those of us who just don't like automatics? I don't believe any of those companies you mentioned make revolvers, though I'd be delighted to be proven wrong...
I guess it's just me,but I think the glock looks badass!
I agree
H Garza all buissness, I love it ☺
It’s just you
H Garza when I think “official” I think of a detective with a Glock on his hip.
Me too
My glock 30SF has had numerous failures to feed some stovepipes and consistently throws brass in my face. My CZ75 P - 01 runs like a champ.
And there you have it. I always say pick the firearm that doesn't fail you. Glock never fails me, so I trust it with my life. Your CZ doesn't fail you, so I'd advise you to use that. Mileage may very, everyone has their own stories and experiences. Cheers :)
If having a stovepipe is your issue, maybe try melting into the gun more. Get a more firm grip. I carried a 30SF for 3 years as a truck gun and fired 5000 rounds through it over that time period and never had a single malfunction. Now, some people might say only 5k rounds in 3 years?! Well, yes. It wasn't my primary weapon. It was a truck gun and on a few occasions a boat gun. And no, 5 rounds of that 5k most definitely wasn't shot off that boat at a coyote that was trying to eat our dinner at the shore.. I digress. 😂
Glock is a fantastic handgun. There are other fantastic handguns out there. But for a guy that spends alot of money on firearms, glocks are my go to because they're not ridiculously priced, the amount of upgrades out there are ridiculous if you want them, and I have never had a problem firing a glock. They work, every single time.
In that category I would pick USP, however my 1911s have never let my down (much more maintenance on the 1911s. Price has never been a factor for me. Great video and excellent shooting! Thanks
Same. Barrier to entry with USP is the price, but even though I've never had a problem with 1911s (other than a GSG but that's a .22LR and not a real 1911) I'd personally go USP before 1911 or Glock. When your day-to-day hits a point where you need a firearm for protection and self-defense, you're not going to care that a USP costs $300 more than a Glock.
LateBraking
Yes Sir. Agreed
M&P 2.0 are better than Glocks. Oh, what is that I hear, broken plastic sights?
