My first shots with a brand new Glock 19 Gen 4. No break-in at all; this gun begins it's shooting days on camera!

If you've had problems with Gen 4 9mm Glocks, that's fine. You're welcome to post; however, I'm not providing a free-for-all open Blog / forum for people to write diatribes against Glock. It's hard to know whether someone is a total idiot who has trouble with everything he touches or is even a employee of another gun company. Just make your point and let it go at that, please.
This ballistics information below ( a bit jumbled since I copied and pasted from a spreadsheet) was provided by DannyR at Glocktalk. If you're a member of that forum, you know of his extreme expertise and credibility:

  • @2ndamendrights, I appreciate your doing that, because maybe it will be easier for me to find the models I want on the shelves in gun shops. They have a way of getting scarfed up before I get there. :-)

  • Great video! I assume by now you've shot Alot more through the gen 4. Have you had anymore problems? Or was it just breaking in? Thanks.

  • @xBossAwesomex, I've shot it several times since doing the videos. The only malfunctions I've had were with the early videos. AFter I shoot it some more, I might test it again with whatever the worst / weakest 115 grain 9mm is to see if I can get it to malfunction with some of that stuff. I really don't care, though, if there's an occasional malfunction with the worst, weakest ammo. For the spring to work better with normal powered ammo, I guess it HAS to just barely perform with light stuff.

  • Thank you for taking the time to do this demonstration right. I purchased my glock 19 gen 4, and I depended upon the reputation of glock. I haven't had a gun ever that at some point didn't jam. I've also learned over the years (and you mention) that the ammo is a big factor. Cheap ammo gives cheap results.

    Once again, Thank you.

  • 10:13 same thing happened to me when I shot it brand new with Remington 115g.

  • What better way to film a glock with some sexy HD. Hickock i love your vids. Compared to other channels i find yours a lot more entertaining as opposed to feeling like im taking a class. Picking up my first Glock when i get back to the states.

  • Just bought one earlier today, can't wait to go to the range and put it through its trials.

  • you are my hero!!!!!!!!!!

  • @hickok45 I have a Glock 19 Gen 1. Would you prefer the Gen 4 over the Gen 1? Why?

  • Sir...would you recommend this Glock as my first handgun?...i find it perfect for my small hands but have yet to fire it

  • I've found Blazer Brass to be one of the best factory rounds for the money. I almost always use the brass for my reloads. They offer 350 rounds for $100 at some box stores...

  • @ridemytube247,no u need to get a fucking life bitch

  • @2ndamendrights Jesus H. Christ... get a fuckin life SERIOUSLY
