Single stack G19, LOL! Maximum trolling achieved. Way to go Glock!



What are you talking about?

This is he gun Glock fans want.

Nobody is asking for a Kel Tec P3AT sized Glock.

Have you ever carried a single stack 9mm?

They are nice.

hmm Kavinsky sounds an awful lot like Zaminsky... account creation time is also suspect...

basically EVERYONE is asking for a G42 sized block in 9mm minus you and the other weirdo in this thread. There is no point in anything bigger than g26 size in SS 9mm.

No.  It's just right for pocket carry.  Full size, single stack guns are stupid.

Why would they make a skinnier Glock 19 intead of a skinnier glock 26?



Because thinner is better than shorter.
Uh they would be the same width, but a modified glock 26 would be in line with the size of competitor's small 9mm single stack pistols that have 7 or 8 rounds  



How would they be the same width?
A slim 19 and a slim 26 would be the same width  



How?

That's like saying a Sig P239 is the same width as a P228.

Yep. For concealed carry, length is way more difficult to manage than width. If you're going to carry a gun that large, might as well have the full capacity.

What dimension means the most in concealability in your view? For most people, it's the height of a handgun as it's the butt of the grip that typically is the first part to print. I can conceal my G26 just fine, but my G19 prints too much. A single-stack G26 is what most people want from Glock this time around.

A single stack G19...  A Glock PPS.

Not some G42 sized piece of crap.

This is what we wanted.  And if you think otherwise, you just don't "get it" yet.


What would you do with a single stack G26? Why do you think this is better?  It's too big to be a pocket gun.  If you are going to carry it on your belt might as well carry a 19, they conceal the same.    Ankle carry?  I'm asking seriously, not criticizing.

Good question.  I agree it is the height of the handgun.  However by the time you add an extender mag to your G26 it is basically the same height as the 19.  Even without an extender mag, I think if you are really worried about the height difference between a 19 and 26, then you worry to much about printing or are over thinking it.  People just are not that observant, and I'll take the slightly better "shoot-ability".    But the 26 is a great pistol and I see your point.  It's personal preference.  They will sell a ton of single stack 26s.

People have been wanting a single stack 9mm for how long now? Numerous companies now have offerings in this realm, some even have no safety.  

Granted I'm sure they'll sell a bunch just because it's a Glock, but they lost A LOT of business because they were too slow to get a single stack 9mm out.

With subcompact or compact pistols length really becomes less an issue and width more of an issue. Yes, length is a problem if you're doing a full size pistol, but we're talking about what is likely to be a pistol in the compact or subcompact category here not full service size arena.

Count me among the many that would like a single stack G19 size.  For me, 6-8 rounds just isn't enough.  10+1 probably would be.

True, but cc a glock 19 or a glock 26 and see what prints first.  It won't be the width.   It will be the extra length in the grip.  

95% of people wanting a single stack glock want something in the PM9, glock 42 size range.

They didn't.

All of the media released so far points to a G42 sized new product. The link in the OP is fucked. A full sized 9mm 1911 mag holds 9 rounds. A G19 sized single stack would hold 8, maybe. The G43 will most likely have a 6 round standard magazine.

A 10 round single stack magazine would require a grip length similar to an XDm full size, or a CZ P07 duty; it would be obnoxiously long.

A 10 round single stack magazine would require a grip length similar to an XDm full size, or a CZ P07 duty; it would be obnoxiously long.


The G43 slide nd bbl are longer than the G42's. The frame is larger as well. Promos were filmed with a couple celebrities last week.

Yep. For concealed carry, length is way more difficult to manage than width. If you're going to carry a gun that large, might as well have the full capacity.



Not true.

You beat me to it.  I don't think he has....

True, but cc a glock 19 or a glock 26 and see what prints first.  It won't be the width.   It will be the extra length in the grip.  

95% of people wanting a single stack glock want something in the PM9, glock 42 size range.

With subcompact or compact pistols length really becomes less an issue and width more of an issue. Yes, length is a problem if you're doing a full size pistol, but we're talking about what is likely to be a pistol in the compact or subcompact category here not full service size arena.

You and I agree, but we need to use the correct word if people are to know what we're saying. The length of a gun is from the muzzle to the rear to the rear of the gun. The height of a gun is from the bottom of the magazine up to the top of the slide. The length of a handgun isn't nearly as important in concealability as the height is.

Everyone except for the Glock kool-aide crowd has been carrying them for decades now.

Which is why Glock should too.

We need this here in the panhandle area in the summer.

True, but hence the FBI forward cant to most holsters. The heal of the pistol can be managed more easily than it's width at least for me.

Not for me, I guess everyone is built different.  IME, width has everything to do with comfort but has very little to do with concealability.
