Glock Perfection

It's only perfect if you can get one for $310.49 due to a misprint

>>34706904

>>34707216
about 310.49

>>34707216
I'm pretty sure it's three hundred and ten dollars and forty nine cents, American, adjusted for inflation of course.

Why is Glock acting so weird about making these for civvies? Does Glock not want to make all the money that many people would be willing to pay for a Glock with a manual thumb safety? Not to mention how nice the fit of a semi-compact (mid-size slide/full-size grip) is, although not the 'best' for CC.

This would also be an awesome opportunity for Glock to make an "almost compact" model for their 10mm and .45 ACP pistols without having to make new mags.

I would totally pay $500 for a G20MHS. I love Glocks, but my job requires a pistol that has a manual thumb safety for "insurance reasons", which is annoying because I'd rather be carrying a common G20 than a snowflake S&W 1006.

It actually came down to contract fulfillment issues. The Army wanted the Pistol Manufacturer that got the contract to also supply a significant amount of ammunition. Glock is not in the ammo business in any form.

out of 6 Sig P320s I handled, one had a nice trigger. the rest, including a rental were gritty with blubbery break points and long reset. WTF?

>>34707402
Same reason they went with the M9. It was cheap.

Don't see why I'd go with it over the safety model p320 considering the latter's about to get real popular and the MHS glock would likely command a premium. Safety looks much nicer(to me at least) and is supposed to be good from what i've heard.

>"""modular"""" but has anti tamper take down system to prevent usage of the """modular""" features

They should have just gone with the P226 if they just wanted a Sig. Why go with a striker memed P250 with a carryover slide design that simply doesnt make sense without a hammer.

The """modular""" bullshit with these guns is retarded. No Armory was ever going to have a bunch of different size back straps for people to choose "what fit best" for their glock, and no armory is ever going to ever disassemble and swap frames on one of these meme tier Sigs to special snowflake fit a hand to every single issued gun. Especially since the personnel that will be issued these wont be able to do it themselves with the anti-tamper system that prevents use of the modularity.

>>34715110
Right, the opposite of this makes much more sense. Glcok 17 sight radius with Glock 19 grip length. Get the best of both worlds in sight radius and concealability.

>>34707373
That's fucking stupid. Nobody wants a 19 slide on a 17 frame. There are several options for a 17 slide on an 19 size frame because this makes much more sense.

>>34709025
From what I saw last time I was deployed with the gov, spec ops either used glocks or sig200 series pistols, my security group all carried flock q17s as well, the xm17 is just a standard sidearm,that 75% OF the military will never have access to.

>modular, and had anti tampering take down pins added by request of the military to prevent grunts from taking it down further than they want

Modular gun is still modular. Just means that a armorer is the only people the military thinks is smart enough to do the... modulating...

Sure beats "the modular handgun that isn't even slightly modular" that glock decided to roll with

>>34717109
What does "being able to modulate," whatever the fuck that means, have to do with being modular? If Glock could provide an entire gun at the same cost as Sig's caliber x-change kits (frame, magazine, slide and barrel), then it would be a completely moot point.

Was there an all steel, hammer fired pistol in the trials at all?

>>34717361
I think Deltonics or whatever pitched a double stack m1911, but I think it had some poly parts. Beretta pitched their super 92, but I cant remember if it had polymer or not.

I think the other main competitors were like the S&W M&P, Sig, and Glock

>>34717109
>Sure beats "the modular handgun that isn't even slightly modular" that glock decided to roll with
That's because it was good enough to do everything with one gun. It was even more accurate than the full slide length SIG.

>Shitting on .40

I mean, he sent that and a 9mm version.

I'm worried my /k/ preferences are wearing down, lads. I think I may want a Glock for my first pistol. I have small hands and they're the thinnest double-stacks out there and it'll be easy to rice up to be a all-situations pistol that I can train in exclusively with no worry. That's the second part I worry about, I think I may want a Roland Special so it can be a home defense and carry gun.
>>34719376
Rumor has it Gen 5 is coming soon and every special fed order for Glocks has asked them to remove the finger grooves.

>>34719505
That's a factory configuration.

>>34706904
Totally unironic here - they should release this Glock.
Add an extended slide stop and slide release, Threaded barrel and tritium fiber optic suppressor night sights.
Sell it for 550 street price to compete with cz and their p09s.
Also make the exact same model but based on the 21/20 for 45 and 10mm.

>>34720619
Semi-compacts (compact slide length, full size grip) don't really sell well in the civilian market. People are convinced that they need as short of a barrel as possible and as long of a sight radius as they can get away with.

>>34718104
Glock submitted a single gun for both the compact and full sized role requests. Sig submitted two different sized guns, hence the need for modularity with the Sig and the lack of modular-ability for the Glock since it didn't need it.

>>34720666
>it was good enough to do everything with one gun
The contract request for "a gun that could be used by undercover personnel and operators in the field" could have been met by just stocking different size Glocks. The cost of Sig's caliber x-change kits is almost as much as a new gun, anyway. Glocks of different sizes are modular in the sense that they all have the exact same controls, same trigger, and can use the same magazines.

>it was even more accurate than the full slide length SIG
I have a hard time taking such a claim seriously. Either of the Sig P320, Sig P226, Glock 17, Glock 23, Beretta M9A3, Ruger American or whatever else are going to be accurate enough for anything the military would want to use a handgun for.

inb4 the Army and AF go SIG and the Navy and Marines go Glock

>>34720707
A single glock used for both roles would still only cost one unit.

>I have a hard time taking such a claim seriously.
You should, they only shot these guns in a mechanical vise.

>>34720762
>A single glock used for both roles would still only cost one unit.
The idea is that a single P320 "chassis" can be used for different kinds of missions, whether it's covert or not, so you can swap out the parts for concealed-carry or open carry. When the cost of the parts to swap out a single chassis to a different sized gun almost equal the cost of a new gun, it doesn't make a lot of sense to focus so much on that feature. The important benefits of a modular pistol system are having the same controls, trigger and magazine.

>>I have a hard time taking such a claim seriously.
>You should, they only shot these guns in a mechanical vise.
Setting accuracy standards this high is really losing sight of the big picture.

>>34708806

sorry nerds but u clearley have no clue what your talking about

th MHS contract is a ruse the xm17 has blocks installed so frames cant be changed by individuals
also the tests were very limited and not complete compared to any other firearm contract in the past furthermore the reason sig won is cause it came 100 million cheaper the, tests where not conclusive in any way the price was ;)

>>34722207
What people keep missing is the big advantage of the modularity at the armorer level. The plastic grip frame is the part least likely to last the life of the pistol so having them be low cost and easy to change out is a huge plus.

>>34726247
it's funny because there is no objective metric by which you can call a Glock shit. The only argument these fags can come up with are subjective bullshit like "it's ugly!" or "I dont like the way it feels!"

There KB argument is complete trash. Every gun has KB's. Difference is there are literally tens of millions of glocks out there. And because of their price they are likely to be owned by dumbasses that are willing to put overpressure loads in these pistols and blow them up. Then blame the gun for their idiocy.

>>34722226
>The plastic grip frame is the part least likely to last the life of the pistol
I can almost follow your fudd logic, but since the frame rails are all contained in the chassis, there is really no chance for the grip module to develop a crack in the first place.

>>34717020
Sig fag here. I think you need to understand that brass who never touch guns in the field make these choices, not those in the field.

It's a great firearm, it beat the competition in trials for what the army was looking for. Mad? Okay.

>>34728395
Except it didn't. They cancelled the final trials despite there being no clear winner as far as basic function. If they don't finish testing, there's no guarantee this is even a halfway decent pistol.

No it didn't. You dont even know waht you're talking about.

They didn't even complete the trials to determine who was the winner of the 2 finalists (glock or sig). They stopped the testing early and awarded Sig the contact because they had a lower price. Hell they didn't even come close to fully testing the XM18. They only fired 500 rounds through it.

>It's a great firearm

No they didn't. They had Sigs.

>>34728596
iirc it had something to do with the long-term care. Beretta had a slightly higher per-pistol upfront cost, but lower life-long costs, whereas Sig had the reverse, or something to that effect.

The net effect was that Beretta and Sig were priced similarly, with Beretta squeaking by a bit cheaper. And that matters when you are talking contracts.
