As poor as sales of larger calibers are I wouldn’t hold your breath.

That’s not many. Rumor is that the 40 caliber Gen 5 only happened because law enforcement customers that wanted it signed the contract before Glock allocated development funds. |

I REALLY hope so. Yeah the 9mm is more popular these days but there are still a whole lot of .45acp Glock fans out there. Mines still a gen 3 but I really need an SF sized frame. I've looked at just about every option out there and it comes down to just getting a new one makes the most sense for this poor chick.

I’d be very surprised if Glock doesn’t eventually release gen 5 45 and 10mm models. I would definitely buy a 30S if they do, but if they don’t I won’t complain either since I’ve got no practical use for the gun and would never carry it, I’d just want one because I alway liked the 30S I had, just hated the finger grooves. If they don’t make them though they’ll be doing my bank account a favor by saving me at least a grand by time I buy extra mags, holsters, and Trijicon HD’s for a gun that would sit in my safe.

I imagine everything will have a Gen5. Gen4 is clearly on the way out.

When I was at my armorers course back in Jan, the Glock LE sales guy said it’s on the way but it’s gonna be awhile

I'm sure it will happen, when that will be who knows. My .02, I have a few Gen5's and to be honest, there are some things I like better about the Gen5 but overall I prefer Gen4. The finish on the Gen5 is a bit better (not sure about long term) and I do like the flared mag well but I like the finger grooves of the Gen4 better than no finger grooves because it feels more secure in my hand.

I see that law enforcement has moved away from .45ACP in many areas, but I think it would still be a strong seller in the civilian market

Quote HistoryQuoted: I doubt they will but I would absolutely love a Gen5 G20 There have been leaks indicating a potential new Gen5 10mm. However it appears it would be a 4.5” barreled 10 round stagger stack. That actually could replace a G20, particularly if Shield Arms can make a 15 round magazine. The MOS cut and finger grooves keep me from buying a G40 in the meantime. |

They could be smaller, but heavy metal weights would be required.
