Glock MOS Gen 5 G19 & G17

the new Glock June 5 mos let's check it out [Music] [Music] [Music] vlogs introduced three new pistols to their line we just did a review on the new G 45 which is a 19 slide on a model 17 frame very much like the G 19 X I'll have a link right up here for you to click if you want to see the review but today we're going to take a look at their new Gen 5 mos model 19 and model 17 and these pistols have rmr cuts with adapter plates to fit any of your microdot red dots plus there are some other upgrades over even to Gen 5 so one of the things that was funny on Instagram a lot of guys were saying well it's just a standard glock gin.5 well it's not there are some definite changes that we really want to take a look at first thing I wanna do is make sure that the guns are unloaded and they are now one of the cool things about the MOS system is that yes you can put a really cool red dot on here without taking it to a gunsmith and having him mill out the slide and do all the different cuts that are just a permanent fixture on your handgun but one of the great things about the MOS is that you do have the option just to leave it as it is this is a model 17 and you can leave the plate on it you can shoot it you can do whatever and then if you just decide to add an RM R or any kind of micro red dot you had that capability so it's really a cool system now it is a little more expensive than your standard Glock but it's just one of those things that gives you just some more options and that I like that in itself I really like the way that this cover plate looks it fits very naturally to the pistol and of course you just have a couple of screws we're gonna I'm going to show you the installation of the g 19 in a minute even though I have an RM R for the model 17 I decided to wait and we'll just demonstrate this as is because a lot of guys are gonna buy it like this and they'll just leave it like this and then later on down the road you can add your armoire and of course a lot of the gun companies right now are putting out these optic ready bases this is the new gen 5 model there's a lot of changes if you're really interested and you just love to hear a lot of detail the link annotated right here and it's all the differences between the June 3 the June 4 and the June 5 and we get into a lot of detail Robbie from Wheaton Arms help me with that one but there are a lot of changes made and now there are some changes made to these pistols now while people are saying that Glock is just not listening and guys will tell you that's just not true one of the things about Glock is is they have a certain system that they're going with this is the basic design and they are incrementally upgrading you know when it makes sense and not just necessarily when you know people that won't specialized things on here but here I see some things that Glock has done and they've been a lot more responsive one of the big things that just came out with the G 45 are these front cocking serrations and that's the first I mean I think there's a model that they did come out with it was kind of an obscure model but this is really the first time for a full production line pistol the Glocks putting out these serrations another big thing that Glock did was to fill in this area that they opened up with the Gen 5 here I have my model 19 Gen 5 you can see right here there's a cut a lot of complaints and whining going on about this cut now for me I don't care it doesn't it's never even close to pinch my hand but it's just a gap and really honestly I would rather not see that gap it was made so you could rip the magazine out they actually extended the lip to the magazine to be able to accommodate that but one of the big things is you have a flared magwell which was new on the June 5 and Gen 5 to me this is the best Glock out yet when it was introduced now with the g 19 x that is become one of my favorites one of the big advantages of not having that cut out is that it actually gives you more of a lip here so the flare actually comes out at the front and on the sides so it's going to give you even more of a little bit of surface area down there low on the magazine well so you know there's definitely some advantages to that and and the texturing here is just very well done it's been improved so you know those are some things that have been upgraded from the standard gin five and I like that and yet you can still use your same you know magazines either the gin five or any previous generation magazine also the sites have been changed and you can see that they actually come to the back of the slide and it's three dot these are night sights and so they're just very well they're metal a lot of people like to complain about the polymer sites I've had them for years haven't hadn't really that much trouble but I do like the night sights now one thing though that I'd kind of puzzled about and maybe because different our Mars fit differently but this does not coitus the sights just don't Co witness with the RMR and you know you could put suppressor Heights sights on there if you wanted to do that to me that's not such a big deal because especially if you're using a good quality microdot you can see the dot in that rmr you know this thing is as rugged as they come and so I'm not really concerned about this going out but if I was I could put on suppressor height sites and so you know there are some options there to be able to kind of do what you want to and it's one of funny things about these pistols is because they're so popular and there's so many different things you can do a lot of guys are putting a lot of aftermarket parts and Glocks actually stepping it up because one thing that a lot of guys do are these front cocking serrations personally for me you know I don't really care I mean I've been press checking for a long time but it does allow that and they're the same exact configuration as the ones on the rear so you know while Glock is not always you know instantly check you know taking care of everybody's whims I think they're really starting to move in a good direction and I'm looking I'm wondering actually if they're not gonna start doing that to the original gen fives as well and going into that and bringing these down because it looks like that's where they're going this is a g19 frame Gen 5 this is a g19 frame it's one of the early ones so maybe this is a 101 and this is a 1.2 I don't know of course with the Gen 5 it does have the ambidextrous slide release which alike the gen-5 mags I love the orange follower these are just excellent and then the baseplate does have this lip that comes out these do not fit in the G 19 X which we talked about because the G 19 X actually has a piece that comes down but the G 19 X will take any of your standard earlier model Chin's so just a great mag system and again these will take all your different mags these do come with three mags each and it does come with some other accessories that we're going to look at one of the things though about the Gen 5 is the trigger has been updated and I'll tell you it's just a better trigger it's much more crisp they're really watching a lot of these companies that are developing incredible triggers for the Stryker fire just like the vp9 the Walther PPQ the cz p10 see those triggers are excellent so they're starting to really listen to that and to work on this but one of the things about fine tuning and having really delicate and fine triggers and things like that is that they can affect reliability it's one of the big things that Glock wants is reliable handguns now one thing that's been improved with the Gen 5 is the marksman barrel this gives you even better accuracy with your Glock barrel it's still polygonal groove so it's you know you really don't want to shoot a lot of lead reloads through these barrels because it will build up guys I'm a Glock guy from the beginning I have an original gin one I have a chin two and then course all the way up and there they have always been just solid hand guns all the way through but if I take the Gen 5 and put it next to a Gen 1 there are a tremendous amount of differences now one of the big things though that I do also like about the June 5 of course is that they remove these finger groups and for me I really like that also with the Gen 4 they came in and reduced the back strap one of the things about Glocks typically is that they feel a little bulky now I've enjoyed shooting them I love them I carry a Glock 26 June 5 is my concealed carry predominantly I do carry other pistols but one of the things about trimming this it really made this more of a gergan ama crystal if you want to add more back straps there are four other options and here you can see there's a medium a large without the beaver tail and then a medium and large with the beaver tail and to take them apart there's a tool right here on this cradle you just push through and you can attach whichever one you want it's really simple to do it just snaps into these grooves and into that hole so it gives you a lot of options the texturing is again the same but if you really want to get that high ride beaver tail there you go now with the pistol you get these adapter plates and of course they're sealed different ones of course to the different type are Mars or micro red dots that you're gonna put on here this is the modular optic system and that's what the MOS stands for now we're going to be attaching the Trijicon RMR and this is the MRO six then you have all the information it's actually underneath that plate the plates and so make sure that you cut out around fully before you remove it or you'll do like me and you'll rip it so that is your instructions on the card just take out your screws we're gonna take the plate off you will notice that there is some lubricant on there and you want to clean that off next just go ahead and add your plate and of course the nubs go on the front for the RMR now the existing screws that you pulled out of the adapter plate we're gonna put those aside and we're gonna use the screws provided with the kit just don't over tighten now we're gonna take our rmr place it on next place on your arm are now you need to use the screws that come with your arm are to attach the arm are not the screws that are included in the kit now we have the site fully installed make sure that you retain the extra set of plate screws that hold your plate down and also for the cover plate those two screws make sure you hold on to them and I want to thank Fiocchi for sponsoring the ammo we're shooting some 115 green Full Metal Jacket one thing about Fiocchi is it's all made in the USA since the early 80s and they're one of the largest supplier of a munitions in the country good clean burning stuff and good just good stuff we have quite a bit more that we have over to the side but we're probably gonna shoot about 400 rounds I'm not really sure what the heck I'm doing I had my new Lula loader these things are just awesome so guys we went down to the range one of the things I was really wanting to achieve is being able to talk about the site and acquiring your site picture for me typically that when I bring it up I'm looking for the dot in its way above and it's just natural unless I began to start training with it really what you want to do is is quit looking for the dot and just kind of line up your sights naturally and that's where you see the dot immediately in the screen so guys if you go out and buy this you need to practice now this is a Glock it shoots like a Glock the RMR on top is aluminum and it's fairly lightweight so it doesn't really change the way the gun feels and it just seems to like I'm so concentrated on that dot that you know everything else is just natural great texturing the improved texturing is you know it's just excellent and you feel like you've got a really good grip on the gun the better trigger no malfunctions whatsoever which is typical one of the things though that I wanted to achieve with the red dot is just to kind of make some not rapid rapid fire but just to kind of fire off some rounds at a faster pace than typical just to hit the target and to see what I could do once I got into the rhythm of that first target it just became one jagged hole and so that's really what you want to do is just get that you know sweet spot find it because if you see that dot you put it on there that's where it's gonna hit if you have your sights lined up now of course whatever site you decide to use you've got to adjust it and get it lined up with your sights the handling of the gun just exceptional we only took the 19 out because there just really wasn't a reason to take the 17 out and you know do all the things we needed to do we could that we could demonstrate with the 19 and honestly guys the 19 is my all-time favorite Glock size and some of the other features of just removing those finger grooves and filling in that moon cut and then of course with the front cocking serrations it's really bringing this gun up to date comparing with whatever else is out on the market now as far as any cons go I think that the sights they don't Co itness I don't know that that's really a problem because you know you have your red dot sight and any of the good quality red dot should hold up well but you know if you really want to do that jump up to the suppressor height sights me I like it I don't mind the sights in fact I like them a little bit lower especially if I'm using the cover plate I don't want the big high sights but if you're going to put a suppressor on it you're gonna want to do that anyway put the suppressor height sights the undercut right here on the g19 a lot of people get what they call the Glock knuckle for me I've never really had a problem with that but I'll still undercut so I can bring my grip up just a little bit more and so you know if that were undercut just a little bit of course it may you know take away from the structure of the trigger guard so that but that's just one thing right there that some people really have a thing about so other than that guys I think that the new gen 5 the MOS fixing this piece here the front cocking serrations I just think that this is pretty much the perfect Glock if that's possible but when the Glock six comes out I'll probably like it of course no review would be complete without disassembly drop your magazine it's empty check to make sure it's unloaded the first thing I do is pull the trigger pull back on the slide just make them an inch pull down on these tabs on the side with the RMR it makes it a little easier we have our recoil spring guide rod we have our barrel marksman barrel and that's pretty much field strip right there guys really simple of course you know we have our ambidextrous slide release or slide stop which makes it nice and of course standard Glock I mean there are some upgrades but pretty much what you've seen then we'll take for reassembly upper barrel ends recoil spring guide rod which is dual captive bring a slide over the frame and we're good to go they have your standard Glock box and then also you have your adapter plates with the MOS and then of course you get your pistol you get 370 narrow magazines with the model 17 you get 315 round mags with the model 19 again your back strap safety lock all the paperwork for brush and a mag loader one of the things I've said lately is his Glock needs to make a Gen 2 box something big because you know it's starting to get a little bit crowded in fact it's getting fairly difficult to close this box so guys if you've really been wanting to put a armoire or a micro red dot on your handgun these new Glock Gen 5 MOS pistols are an excellent choice and Glock reliability Glock perfection you know and you can model out like you want to now guys this video was brought
