The Glock That Time Forgot (GLOCK 36 )

About this video

Colion examines the Glock 36, a single-stack .45 ACP pistol he describes as Glock’s forgotten middle child. He argues that despite being overshadowed by higher-capacity models, the G36 offers solid performance and Glock reliability in a slimmer package, though he notes it carries only six rounds—the same as a revolver. Colion suggests the gun deserves a second look from those who appreciate .45 ACP, even though it’s likely been discontinued and eclipsed by modern micro-compacts.

Key takeaways

• Colion argues the Glock 36 is an overlooked single-stack .45 with only six-round capacity, making it an unconventional choice in Glock’s high-capacity lineup
• He teaches that the G36 shoots well with manageable recoil and natural point of aim, though he feels the Glock 30 performs noticeably better
• Colion maintains that in today’s market of higher-capacity micro-compacts, the G36 feels outdated but still appeals to dedicated .45 ACP enthusiasts
