      Same i got one a couple months ago and i absolutely love it i traded in a gen 4 17 and i got it to begin with bc i like the grip better than the 19 and this is perfect its the best of both worlds for me and i didnt have to pay very much at all after trading in my 17 for it and man these have way better triggers than the gen 4 as well

    I've been through all of the models in 9mm since the Gen 2 and EDC'd a majority of them for a time but switched away from Glocks a couple years ago. I picked one up blue label today I had never held a 45 before and had honestly given up following the new releases but instantly I knew this was the best one yet as soon as I picked it up!

    • @jackmemphis777

      My favorite Glock is my 19X and its a great open carry gun so I can see the appeal for officers (which is what the G45 was created for since they cant carry the tan G19x). I came across a game warden last season carrying a G45 and think its the perfect choice (unless you are in bear country lol). A lot of cops around here carry G31s though (i just ask in public cuz im curious).

    The G45 is probably the only Glock I would ever purchase due to the features you described. I'm definitely not a Glock guy and I will not disparage the brand. The reputation speaks for itself.

    • @KSGunGuy01

  • @ih8thishandle
    @ih8thishandle Год назад +3

    My first handgun purchase was an HK VP9, it felt perfect in my hand and I now own four variants of the VP9. I recently decided to buy a Glock because everybody else thinks Glock is the greatest thing to ever happened to a firearm and having more popular firearm will increase magazine compatibility. I finally settled on 45 because I found that one to be the most comfortable and easier to adapt to compared to the HK VP9.
    I had the slide milled to mount the same Green Dot on my VP9s. After installing it's suppressor and running two full magazines through it right out of the box I had a hole big enough in the target at 15yrds to put my fist through.
    I like the features with the exception of the base plate of the magazine which I will have to switch out so I will be compatible with the other generation magazines. Although I don't think it's equal in quality or performance with any of my HK VP9s I think it's the best model Glock has put out in a while.

    @ricflair1768 5 лет назад +4

    Just picked up a G45. I’m no Glock fanboy, but I have to admit this is the best Glock I’ve owned. The G17 frame with the G19 slide is perfect. Softest shooting Glock. The flared magwell and the lack of that awkward hump on the 19X magwell made the G45 better for me over the 19X.

    • @KSGunGuy01
      @KSGunGuy01  5 лет назад +1

      I agree, the 45 is one of Glock's best so far. Thank you and cheers!

  • @matt6178
    @matt6178 4 года назад +3

    I like it a lot. As you stated I think it’s the best combination of balance. It’s a perfect combination of lighter weight due to what is essentially a G17 frame and a G19 slide. In a lot of ways it’s a 17 round Glock 19 and I’m a huge fan of the G19. The trigger is smooth, the front slide serrations are a nice touch, the grip is solid and the overall look of the gun is outstanding. I’m a bit annoyed with the magazine interchangeability of the Gen 5 magazines but other than that I think this model along with the G19X are two of the best Glocks ever produced

    Agreed! I like my new G45 right out of the box. I enjoy most of mine (gen 5- 19s, gen 3- 23 and gen 4-27) but the G45 feels better. I only have a couple hundred rounds through it so far but A few slight modifications, I think this is going to be my go to? Sorry 27.I already have another G 45 on the way just in case it’s true love

  • @topturretgunner
    @topturretgunner 2 года назад +1

    I’m the content owner of a Glock 45. To me it’s the best of Glocks 17 & 19. I previously owned a Gen 4 Glock 19 over time I found the grip indexing to be annoying and found my self shifting it around in my hand to get a comfortable grip. I too like the “polymid” grip texturing. I like the front serrations. The 5.5 pound trigger is noticeably stiffer than the 4.5 lb trigger in the Gen 3 Glock 34 that I’ve purchased recently. The break is cleaner. I like the very noticeable reset. For me I think that this G 45 and I are going to be range buddies just as the Mossberg 590SP 12 gauge shotgun that sits in my gun safe and I are!

  • @danielhesse8600

      Yea, I just bought myself the CZ P10C. The trigger is phenomenal. For me it's better all round and was between that and the G19, then of course as I bought it, the G45 gets released. Would have definitely been a contender, but I still prefer the look and feel of the CZ

    Thanks for another great video KS. First one about the G45 I've seen. Just became aware of the new model in the last couple of days. Probably because I live in a vacuum... I've been waiting for this model (sort of a "black 19X"). Liked the 19X but just couldn't get ready for the color. Now I'm ready to "pull the trigger" on this one.

      Which one did you end up getting? My choice at the store a couple months ago was either the G45 or the G19x. I went with the G19x since it looks so much cooler, has night sights and 2 of the 19 round mags with the 17 round mag (ended up getting a few more 17 rounders though since the flush fit is easier to carry.

  • @blisterbill8477
    @blisterbill8477 5 лет назад +7

    I researched xd, Glock, cz, s&w m&p and a few others for weeks. Went down today and shot rentals for all of these.
    50 rounds each for g19, m&p 2.0, g43, cz p-07, xd in 9mm and a cz-p 10 from another shooter there at the range.
    The g19 was the best in my opinion except for the trigger. I was really let down on the Glock trigger to tell the truth. A guy at the gun shop suggested the g45 and I tried the trigger. I was really surprised that it was so much better than the other glocks. Not as much take up and a more consistent break.
    The larger handgrip was better for me than the g19. I’ve got extra large hands. Literally, my hands barely fit in XL gloves.
    I bought the g45 it and ran 250 rounds through it there on the spot.
    It is great for me.
    Plenty of real estate for my hands.
    Much better trigger than the other glocks.
    Reliable and accurate like Glock should be.
    Front serrations on the slide which I use more than the back ones. 17 round mags...3 of them with this gun.
    Very comfortable to shoot and a lot of fun.
    I will be adding new sights but otherwise I think I’m really going to enjoy this gun.

      Yeah I got the 45 even though they had a 19 in stock at the store as well. This is my first handgun and I don't exactly know how I want a gun to feel, but even so, I did not like the feel of my pinky half way on the grip and half on the magazine on the 19. I almost like the shape of the 19 grip better, but just did not feel right with the pinky not being fully on the grip. Plus the 45 was a MOS and it was only $60 more than the non MOS 19.

When I told her she freaked out and didn't want me getting in her car with it. So when we go places I just lie to her and she's none the wiser. The full size grip on the Glock is easily concealable.

      I agree. I've considered getting a 45. But I already have a 17. If they had went the other direction, I would probably pick one up. Though I don't imagine it would feel as well balanced, as the 45 has that in spades. If I hadn't already picked up a 17, I would be in on the 45 though.

    Good review and I have to admit that you got me to think this might be the one to get me to try a Glock again, especially since I really want a Ruger PC Carbine and they come with that Glock magwell. But only for about a minute. Then I remembered that what I never got used to in the 13 years I had my G19 was something that none of those little improvements can fix: the weird grip angle and feel (for me, I understand that and will stipulate that Glock makes a great functioning gun). I guess I’ll put off buying that PCC until some enterprising company makes a P320 or M&P magwell. Can’t believe they are not already on the market. Could it be that difficult?
    Still, good review!

    I like it! I just picked up a Gen 5 34 that has the forward serrations and no half moon cutout. But the 19X is my favorite, to me it just shoots that much better than the rest. So I’d like to add a 45, but I’d rather have seen at least an MOS option for it. Great review as always!
    I guess in the end, I need to add a black M9A3 to go with my FDE version, so I need a 45 to go with my 19X. Thanks for spending my money!

      @Armed Rebellion47 - The .357 Sig benefits from the shorter (4) inch barrel while giving you a full size grip for better control and higher capacity. Makes sense if you think 🤔 about it........

      Good review! Still using my gen 2 G17 for house gun, and G36 for EDC since 2005. Using Trijicon sights on both, have had to replace them ×2 due to tritium dimming over time. Recoil springs changed out due to wear. Ball ammo for range use, good JHP for carry and shoot that up every 2 years and replace with new ammo. Buy it with spare change that accumulates😎

    Sold my 19X and purchased a G45, no regrets. 19X should of been what the G45 is and what kills the 19X is the fact that you can't use other Glock mags. G45 plus Overwatch Precision TAC trigger and you have a winner. As always, nice review~

I will get one, but I will call it a Black 19X, or a 19XB, because telling my friends I just bought a Glock 45 will become tiresome explaining it’s the new 9mm. No, not the 43. The 45, the new 9mm. No, not the 19X in FDE, the black one with the flared magwell and front serrations. No, not the Gen5 19 with serrations, the Glock 45. *sigh* yeah.

    One good thing RE: plastic frames is when it touches your skin , it's not too hot or too cold VS AL or steel . The 3rd gen mod 19 is not Perfect , I put night sights , trigger bar & grip sleeve on it , for the money , it's as good as any and better than most . For a beginner , small person , one gun person , this is a great choice . A 5" with a 19 frame would work also . The fact they will take larger mags makes the short frames very useful . RE: G45 , as a quick back up duty gun ( for a long gun ) , looks like it would be fine .

    • @KSGunGuy01

    The Gen 5 Glocks are basically homework that was done at the very last minute. The Glock 45 that student given a second chance to re-do his entire homework and with a dateline extension.

    I’ve been carrying Glocks since ‘98 and have had a plethora of models. The 45 definitely rates in my top 3. It’s a hard choice between my gen 4 19 and it though. But would I change anything about it? Nope!
    Fits perfectly into my Glock collection. If ya love it, awesome! If ya hate it, awesome!

    After the Gen3 I got away from Glocks for a while awaiting the Gen5. When the first Gen5's came out I was NOT impressed and stayed way. I recently picked a Gen5 G45 with TruGlow H3 sights. I'm here to say this weapon has brought me back to Glock in a big way. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, my G45. I have added a 3.5lbs connector and reduced power safety plunger and that brought my trigger pull down from the high 5 lbs to just over 4 lbs. Now it's perfect for me and it's my EDC. I love it. This is actually like the Gen5.2 but whatever, I love it.

    I got the 19X & 45! I like both! They are great firearms! I've tested approximately 80 some different ammunitions and barrel lengths! The best results were from the 4 inch barrels! The 19 barrel lengths performed better than the G17! If I could just pick one glock, I would go with the Glock 45 9MM! I think its balanced really great and it's a tough firearm!

Recoil mitigation due the long grip, front serrations, mos for optics which I have the sds holosun X2 and a tlr7a as flashlight I love it, it doesn’t need anything else wonderful crispy trigger and wonderful mag release it come even with a very well made magwell. I do recommend it one hundred percent for EDC or duty weapon perfect fit for full duty…. I can’t recommend it enough

    Great review. I currently have a G19 Gen 5 that is my EDC and one that I have been training and shooting exclusively since May when I first bought it. I have since bought a G17 Gen 5 as a home defense / night stand gun. Both have Trijicon HD sights and I shoot them well. Although the new G45 has some cool factors, like the G19X, I can’t see what I would use the G45 for at this point that my G19 and G17 fill right now. But good video presentation. Thanks.

    Walked into the gun store with a wad of Benjamins, ready to lay down for the world famous G17...until I held it's tiny little grip in my hand. I looked at the gunsmith as a tear slowly rolled down my cheek...I didn't have to say a word. He nodded and gave me a wink and said "hang on, brother...all is not lost".
    He brought out this "new" G45...My eyes grew wide as he opened the case, then he handed it to me. I held it in my hand and quickly realized there is a god, and that he had guided Gaston's hands to make the perfect gun, just for me. This was a gun that was a perfect extension of my arm, hand, and fingers. I bought a few hundred rounds and walked over to the range. I have never shot so well, so effortlessly in my life. 5, 10, 25 yards...all on point, most in the red. Since then, I've put probably 2,500 rounds through my baby without a single hiccup. One day, I was determined to work her as hard as I could, and ran a good 500 rounds through her as fast as I could. She was still breathing heavy when I was done, but after a cooldown period, I put her in her case and went home with the biggest smile...
    Since I've had her, I've put a slightly lighter trigger and a trapezoidal slide release (due to my fat fingers). Shooting her is effortless, and is a joy and is by my side always. My love for my lady will never waver, never falter, and will proudly stand up to any menace that dare enter my domain...Peace, love, and good aim to all my brothers and sisters!

    I have the glock 45 and I honestly have no complaints.. it's comfortable, reliable. I use it for work and everyday carry.

    Just bought a Glock 45 MOS yesterday. Waiting on an Aimpoint Acro P2 to add to it and a Surefire X300 Ultra and it'll be ready to go!

    Hands down Generation 3 Glocks are the best, I have several different generation Glocks but I always go back to my gen 3s is it safe to say that Glock Peak with the gen3..... yes I would say they did, just my opinion.

    Nice review. Agree that trigger is better on 19x than the Gen 4 /5. 👍
