This Is One Of My Favorite GLOCKS: Glock 45 MOS Gen 5
About this video
Colion discusses the Glock 45 Gen 5 as his preferred duty gun configuration, explaining why he favors this particular model. He breaks down the design features that make the G45 appealing to him: the combination of a full-size G17 grip with a compact G19 slide. Colion demonstrates the gun’s handling characteristics and explains how this setup affects recoil management and shooting performance compared to other Glock models.
Key takeaways
- Colion argues the G45’s mid-size slide on a full-size frame provides better leverage and less muzzle flip compared to a standard G17
- According to Colion, the G45 would be his choice for a duty gun if he were a law enforcement officer, preferring it over the similar 19X or standard G17
- Colion teaches that trigger quality varies significantly among factory Glocks, and the G45 comes optics-ready with suppressor-height sights
