GLOCK 21 SHOOTING REVIEW: Big Gun, Big Round, Soft Spoken
About this video
Colion shares his hands-on shooting review of the Glock 21 in .45 ACP, which he uses as his primary home defense weapon. He describes putting 100 rounds through the gun without any malfunctions despite never having cleaned it since purchase, and praises its manageable recoil and reliability. Colion also discusses his preference for aftermarket Tru-Dot night sights, the stock trigger performance, and why the Glock 21 is his favorite handgun to shoot even though he carries a Glock 19.
Key takeaways
- Colion reports the Glock 21 handles .45 ACP recoil with a soft, dull push rather than a sharp snap, making it enjoyable and easy to shoot accurately
- Colion notes the gun ran flawlessly through hundreds of rounds without cleaning, demonstrating typical Glock reliability in his experience
- Colion uses the Glock 21 as his nightstand home defense gun and recommends upgrading from stock Glock sights to aftermarket night sights for better target acquisition
