After watching your video's I decided to go with the Glock 27 instead of the XD subcompact. Got my 27 gen4 about two weeks ago and I love it so much. I completely understand why you love this great little gun with a good punch. My new favorite Glock for sure. Love all your videos Hickok, don't ever stop making them!
WOW, you had those targets ringing like a church bell, very good shooting. I've been looking at buying this gun and after doing some research, I'd say you've got me sold, good job.
Nice video Hickok, just like all of yours! You have taught me alot. Question: I have a Gen 3 G27 and love it. I have an opportunity to buy a low shot Gen 4 G27 for low $400's. Any advantage? Would it be dumb to have two? Thanks much and keep up the god work (play)!
I would say it comes down to two things, if you want to be able to change what side your mag release is on, and if you want the grip back-strap to be smaller or bigger.
If you have problems with the Glock "hump" or you are left handed, you may want to look into the gen 4s, if you shoot your gen 3 fine, then I would say keep it.
i wish you show the left side of the gun as you shoot so i can study your grip so i can apply it since i just order the 27 which will be my first glock
How'd the bowling pin make it through that assault unscathed? Thanks for the vid, I'm having a hard time deciding between a gen3 and a gen4 G27. I have two gen3 G23's and lie the idea of the internal parts being interchangeable in case things ever get bad, but I like the RTF grip and the feel of the refaced frame without adding a backstrap- although the gen3 feels fine. Decisions, decisions. Which do you prefer? Why?
@Sora2529 what would be the point. only difference is the 26 is 9mm but you can convert the 27 to 9mm for about $100 with a lone wolf conversion barrel..but you can't go from 9mm to 40 if you get the 26...think about it you pay $100 extra and you now have essentially 2 guns in one.....just my $.02
i like me some glocks now..for the simple reason they boom when u pull the trigger..i got a new 27 gen4 today..hope it performs like my other glocks..i am sure it will!!!!
hey hickock, i am definitly getting my liscence to carry as soon as i hit 21, i was wondering if the way you had the glock in this video is concedered concealed. you usually have that denim jacket to make it concealed but you didnt today.
Hey man quick question. I'm debating on between a 23 Gen 4 or the 27 Gen 4. Which do you think is the overall better pistol? And also how much more accurate is the 23 than the 27?
Hickok 45 - I have one of the first Glock 27s that was made almost 20 years ago. I may upgrade to the Gen 4 or buy a Walther PPS 40. The only thing I do not like about the old 27 is that it is not as accurate as other guns I have. Can you comment on the accuracy of the Gen 4 vs. the initial production? I know the PPS is very accurate and very thin. I like the mag capacity on the 27 but need to upgrade the accuracy to feel confident in my weapon. Your thoughts on improvement in accuracy??
Hey Hickok just wanted to say you've got some great videos. I've been researching which glock I'd like to get and I've pretty much just been watching your videos
RUGER SR40C is better than GEN 4 Glocks and you know it! Let me count the ways, 1) More economical, 2) Lighter Trigger, 3) Adjustable Sights, 4) Recoils less, 5) Much safer, 6) More accurate,7) Feels better, 8) Lifetime warranty 9) Much slimmer 10) Made in the U.S.A.
Pardon my confusion Hickok45, but you say you love these little guns but also say in the video "Yeah, these little guns aren't very accurate are they? You need a long barrel to get accuracy." I'm trying to make an informed decision about buying one of these or the Glock 23. In your opinion, would I be better with the 23 for carry and range time. I probably spend 10% of my time with a firearm carrying and 90% at the range. Thanks for the great videos.
@shoxroxice I have a G23 Gen 4 and am now considering getting a G27. The 23 is my daily carry pistol. It is comfortable to carry in a Crossbreed Supertuck. I have not had a single malfunction with it. It is very easy to shoot accurately. The 27 is basically the same gun only smaller which makes it easier to conceal. You really can't go wrong with either one.
@str19691 Ah, I watched it again. Maybe he was being facetious. The first time I watched and listened just fine, but I interpreted his commentary about the shorter barrel having a perceived effect on decreased accuracy.
@therealnokia I traded my G23 for a G27 because the G23 was a little too big for me to carry on a consistent basis. The G27 is PERFECT for EDC but it's not nearly as fun as the G23 for the range. You gotta ask yourself, do you want a range gun or a carry gun? The G23 performs both roles well while the G27 really is only a carry weapon.
Thanks for all that you do, Hickok45! I am probably going to make the Glock 27 gen 4 my first firearm purchase. Knowing you love it was a big deciding factor for me. I will be using this for home defense and concealed carry. I plan to own 1 gun only, and this one seems to be a great choice.
Great video, you are a wealth if info! I'm a novice and still learning...that being said, why do you think the Glock 27 is superior to the 23? or do you? Thanks, I'm learning a lot from you!!!
I am writing again to get an answer to my previous question: What PS system holster did you use in this video? I like the fact that you can re-holster it easily.
Hey Hickok45 git ur salf some hickok45/glock t-shirts made cause I want one! You dont hav to shoot a hole through it or autograph it but one of them would be nice fir Christmas.Thanks n "Merry Christmas"
Great video. Thank you. I am debating between the Glock 27 and the CZ rami...I think this vid pushed me over the edge. Very entertaining vids and great shooting. Glad I'm not a metal chicken! God Bless
picked up brand new glock27 gen4 and glock23 gen4 last week now all i need is some land to set up my range this shooting can get a little costly glad i planted that money tree years ago love your chanel hickok45 jammed with great info thanks
lol you are gettin down with the one you love. I have to say myself the glock 27 is a real masterpiece specially with 9mm and 357 sig wolf barrels. What can't this gun do?
@JUKEBOXX1990 Up in Seattle. Yeah California is harsh on the gun laws man. only 10 rounds. But I was wondering why you can't shoot leads bullets. what's stopping you?
My dominant eye is my left one even though I am right handed. I made it a habit of using my right eye instead. But I do not see where my shots land - until I stop and review. Should I return to my left eye or will I find my way eventually? Hoping for your advice since you mentioned that you returned to your left eye.

I own a glock clone sw9ve but I'm looking into purchasing a g27 for conceal carry. I think glock should hire you for marketing purposes. You got me sold
Been a big fan for a while, figured I'd comment, awesome reviews, awesome shootin! Love my G33 stock, but even more with the 40cal barrel slipped in. Keep up the awesome work.
thanks for the video im doing research on what kind of hand gun to get just got my gun permit and , i dony have much knoledge on guns ,but from hear say glocks are great..can you tell me whats the bestof the glocks to get ??
Thanks for the video. Some impressive shootin there sir. I just picked up a Gen4 G27. Looking forward to putting it through it's paces. Wish I had as nice a shooting gallery to go practice at, but the indoor range will have to do.
Ive been tossing around which gun to buy for CC You just made up my mind. After seeing how excited you are about shooting it. BTW I love watching you videos
Man, you CAN SHOOT!! Based on your recommendation alone I went to my favorite dealer, Angelito at The Gun Zone in Clackamas and got a G27 Gen 4. I put 200 rounds through it yesterday without a hitch. Easy to clean and break-down too. After I get the hang of moving up from 9mm to .40 I can see how this will be my CC in the future.
I really like your videos. Very honest and very informative, even if it's just watching your shooting method.
I love your videos. I have been reseaching Glocks lately as I intend to purchase one this weekend. Most of the videos and reviews I have watched/read are from individuals who don't have a clue about firearms. Being a former Marine, that irks me a bit. Thanks for the good intel on this weapon. I will be purchasing a G17 Gen 4 this weekend and can't wait to put it to the test on the range!
you def. made it an easy decision with my glock 23 g4 and i'm thinking the gun show is in a few weeks and you quite possibly did it again with the 27...... Geez your channel is costing me a lot hahaha....... thanks for the reviews, very helpful!!!!
Can anyone help me on this decision? I fired 9mm and .40 out of a G19 and G23 the other day. There was obviously a difference, but I could handle both. The .40 took more getting used to of course, but wasn't too bad. I'm also eyeballing the G26 and G27. I want to carry concealed so I thought one of those might be a better choice. So it's down to the size and caliber of one of these four guns as my final decision.
@bradxwx Hi! I own a number of different pistols for different uses. The G19 and G23 are terrific range guns but pretty big for concealed carry. The only way you'll carry regularly is if what you pack is comfortable enough. Notice I didn't say comfortable but comfortable enough. I have a G27 for my every day carry. I would definitely go with it or the G26 depending on which caliber you choose over the G19 or G23.. I prefer the .40 S&W over the 9mm for self defense. That's just me.
I own, and frequently use, a 22 Gen. 4 and love it. It is my first and only Glock. Recently, I began looking into buying a more concealable Glock. I was concerned because I keep reading reports of Gen. 4 failures on forums. I have watched your reviews of the Gen. 4 23 and 27, and all of my worries have been resolved. I will be buying a G23 and a G27 within the year thanks to your reviews. Good shooting, good commentary, good job!
Awesome. I didn't realize how accurate one could be at those distances with a sub compact. I own the 19 and its a lot of fun, but its to big for ccw. I'll go look at a 27 tomorrow. Thanks.
I bought one based on your reviews. Glad to hear Glock is sponsoring you!!! I now have a 35, 23 and 27. Can you tell I reload 40sw? I also have dillion and shoot 45-70.
Your review is the reason I just went and bought a Glock 27 gen 4 I just bought it from GT dist for $398.00 plus tax. Thanks again for the great videos. Tell Glock they just sold me one because of you.
my agency is about to make the switch from the HK USP to a glock in .40. I'd be thrilled if they went with the 23 but i'm pretty sure they'll opt for the 22. Any glock will be a welcomed improvement from the HK. It's big bulky and the trigger pull is a nightmare.
I have a question for you, I am currently active duty in the military. I am military police and I have decided to go with the glock 27 for my CCW. I noticed the holster you have from Personal Security Systems. I looked on their website, but could not find the exact holster you have. What is the model that you are wearing this this video?? Thanks for any help you have in this matter.
@MrBrisker26 you should check out a holster called sidearmor, inside the waistband. They are really nice for the glock 27 gen4, but pretty pricey, 60 bucks but worth it.
Hi Hickok45, do you notice any difference in shooting the G27 gen 3 and gen 4? Does the latter have a little less recoil? Or is is the same feeling/shooting experience?
Had to come back and watch the group of G27 vids. Still have 4 days before I can pick mine up. Gen 4s aren't available here in CA but no big deal. Eager to work out adjusting from my Glock 22.
Just bought my Gen 4 Glock 27 based on your reviews thanks! It feels great in the hand and I cant wait to shoot it! It's my first Glock. I finally broke down and bought it to see what all the hype has been about for years. I was always one of those guys that doesnt like to buy what everyone else has. But in some cases there are reasons why everyone has them :) Thanks Hickok! Your vids are so informative and have helped me on my last three purchases.
@tormozat , Around 09/07/2011, there was a new spring recall announced for many Gen 4 Glocks, but it did not affect the compact models, including the G27.
@tormozat FYI -- Just trying to help you out here... The "Gen 4 springs" in the Gen 4 Glock 27s are the same as the springs in the Gen 3 Glock 27s (Same deal with the other sub-compact Glocks). The only Gen 4 Glocks to receive recoil spring updates are the compact and full size frame models. Take care.
HICKOK45 Thanks for all your great stuff. Looking for Glock 27 to carry all day at work, do you have any comment on Gen 3 vs. Gen 4? Love my G23 but gets a little heavy in plainclothes after 8 hours.
Quite impressed of the hitting percentage on the 230yrds gong with a G 27 (barrel: 3.45inches!). Still deciding between G 30sf, 23 & 27. I think u can just go ahead and chop off ur hands and replace them w/ glocks 4 a Quentin Tarantino movie.lol
@defto777 It's only because the last round can be tough to get in the mag. I have some mags that even with a loader it can be hard loading the last round.
Just picked up a gen 4 Glock 27...going to shoot it for the first time tomorrow. I traded my Glcok 19 for it, which never ever malfunctioned in 3k plus rounds. My G19 was also a Gen 4. I camp/fish/hike often in black bear and wolf country. Iiked the ides of s light weight 40 cal round.
Which FMJ load would be better in the woods out of the G27 (small bears, coyotes, wolves, etc) a 165 grain FN FMJ or a 180 grain FMJ FM?
@ryanhough51 well i would advise 180 grain can't go wrong really, epically if your not dealing with larger bears, but im sure 165 grain would do the job pretty well it is 40 caliber after all and not to big of animals to worry about. I will say though i would go with hollow point's seems like a better idea, in my opinion anyway.
@grimreapper I'd go with the Glock, nothing wrong with the springfield, I have both and both are great guns. I just think Glock is more resistant to all the elements that are hard on a gun. They don't rust, you can't get them dirty enough to fail, there freakishly durable and they always work. Plus anything that you could want for an accessory is plentiful relatively cheap and readily available, and a holster selection that will make your head spin.
Hey hickok big fan of yours wish i could have a range like yours down here in Miami,Fl. so i could get as good as you... anyways wanted to let you guys know i tried to contact Personal Security Systems 3 yes i said 3 in the last solid week and they will not return and email about pricing for LEO's looks like a great holster im ready to buy and wait up to the 70+ days for it but the customer service S**** cant even get a price and get in line for a holster i WONDER how there warranty is!!??
Great Video, great setup of targets......Gen 4 needs a hand all....Grip is smaller and slightly better than Gen 3..........Grip is great but IWB, this little pocket rocket is very abrasive against skin
Like the video, I got myself the Glock 27 a few days ago and I love the feel. I'll be doing a video on it later. I am curious though, which gun and caliber do u use as EDC and why?
Im bout to be buyin my first hand gun and i have been watchin all your videos. Im wanting to know which gun would you prefer most im lookin at the glock 23 or 27 but just cant make up my mind on which i would like to get so if you could help me break down my choice would be great also which holsters would you prefer for the glock 23 and 27 to be able to make them conceal best. I love watchin your videos keep them coming.
Seriously, I envy your shot placement. Awesome shot.

Man, you CAN SHOOT!! Based on your recommendation alone I went to my favorite dealer, Angelito at The Gun Zone in Clackamas and got a G27 Gen 4. I put 200 rounds through it yesterday without a hitch. Easy to clean and break-down too. After I get the hang of moving up from 9mm to .40 I can see how this will be my CC in the future.
I really like your videos. Very honest and very informative, even if it's just watching your shooting method.

I love your videos. I have been reseaching Glocks lately as I intend to purchase one this weekend. Most of the videos and reviews I have watched/read are from individuals who don't have a clue about firearms. Being a former Marine, that irks me a bit. Thanks for the good intel on this weapon. I will be purchasing a G17 Gen 4 this weekend and can't wait to put it to the test on the range!

mobislamorada 6 months ago
Can anyone help me on this decision? I fired 9mm and .40 out of a G19 and G23 the other day. There was obviously a difference, but I could handle both. The .40 took more getting used to of course, but wasn't too bad. I'm also eyeballing the G26 and G27. I want to carry concealed so I thought one of those might be a better choice. So it's down to the size and caliber of one of these four guns as my final decision.

@bradxwx Hi! I own a number of different pistols for different uses. The G19 and G23 are terrific range guns but pretty big for concealed carry. The only way you'll carry regularly is if what you pack is comfortable enough. Notice I didn't say comfortable but comfortable enough. I have a G27 for my every day carry. I would definitely go with it or the G26 depending on which caliber you choose over the G19 or G23.. I prefer the .40 S&W over the 9mm for self defense. That's just me.

Hello sir,
I own, and frequently use, a 22 Gen. 4 and love it. It is my first and only Glock. Recently, I began looking into buying a more concealable Glock. I was concerned because I keep reading reports of Gen. 4 failures on forums. I have watched your reviews of the Gen. 4 23 and 27, and all of my worries have been resolved. I will be buying a G23 and a G27 within the year thanks to your reviews. Good shooting, good commentary, good job!

Awesome. I didn't realize how accurate one could be at those distances with a sub compact. I own the 19 and its a lot of fun, but its to big for ccw. I'll go look at a 27 tomorrow. Thanks.

Your review is the reason I just went and bought a Glock 27 gen 4 I just bought it from GT dist for $398.00 plus tax. Thanks again for the great videos. Tell Glock they just sold me one because of you.
07gmccrewcab 7 months ago
my agency is about to make the switch from the HK USP to a glock in .40. I'd be thrilled if they went with the 23 but i'm pretty sure they'll opt for the 22. Any glock will be a welcomed improvement from the HK. It's big bulky and the trigger pull is a nightmare.

Hickok,
I have a question for you, I am currently active duty in the military. I am military police and I have decided to go with the glock 27 for my CCW. I noticed the holster you have from Personal Security Systems. I looked on their website, but could not find the exact holster you have. What is the model that you are wearing this this video?? Thanks for any help you have in this matter.

@MrBrisker26 you should check out a holster called sidearmor, inside the waistband. They are really nice for the glock 27 gen4, but pretty pricey, 60 bucks but worth it.

But in some cases there are reasons why everyone has them :) Thanks Hickok! Your vids are so informative and have helped me on my last three purchases.

@tormozat FYI -- Just trying to help you out here... The "Gen 4 springs" in the Gen 4 Glock 27s are the same as the springs in the Gen 3 Glock 27s (Same deal with the other sub-compact Glocks). The only Gen 4 Glocks to receive recoil spring updates are the compact and full size frame models. Take care.

Quite impressed of the hitting percentage on the 230yrds gong with a G 27 (barrel: 3.45inches!). Still deciding between G 30sf, 23 & 27. I think u can just go ahead and chop off ur hands and replace them w/ glocks 4 a Quentin Tarantino movie.lol

Just picked up a gen 4 Glock 27...going to shoot it for the first time tomorrow. I traded my Glcok 19 for it, which never ever malfunctioned in 3k plus rounds. My G19 was also a Gen 4. I camp/fish/hike often in black bear and wolf country. Iiked the ides of s light weight 40 cal round.
Which FMJ load would be better in the woods out of the G27 (small bears, coyotes, wolves, etc) a 165 grain FN FMJ or a 180 grain FMJ FM?
ryanhough51 9 months ago
@ryanhough51 well i would advise 180 grain can't go wrong really, epically if your not dealing with larger bears, but im sure 165 grain would do the job pretty well it is 40 caliber after all and not to big of animals to worry about. I will say though i would go with hollow point's seems like a better idea, in my opinion anyway.

grimreapper 10 months ago
@grimreapper I'd go with the Glock, nothing wrong with the springfield, I have both and both are great guns. I just think Glock is more resistant to all the elements that are hard on a gun. They don't rust, you can't get them dirty enough to fail, there freakishly durable and they always work. Plus anything that you could want for an accessory is plentiful relatively cheap and readily available, and a holster selection that will make your head spin.
