Glock 19 Gen5 Description
The choice handgun of many law enforcement agencies worldwide and a very popular concealed carry firearm, the G19 Gen5 is sized between the sub-compact 26 and the full-size 17. It is probably the staple compact carry firearm that all are measured by, and its reduced dimensions makes it ideal for a more versatile role.
To provide remarkable traction for extreme environments and gloved operators, this concealed carry Glock 19 comes with a frame that is rough textured with hundreds of miniature spikes; this frame is made of polymer with hardened steel guides, lacks grooves, and is multiple backstrapped.
This new frame design without finger grooves still allows for instant grip customization – by mounting the different back straps – to accommodate any hand size.
Bear in mind that the Glock 19 Gen5 features the same popular upgrades of all Generation 5 Glock pistols, like the Glock Marksman Barrel (GMB) and overall elimination of leaf springs, which, for increased longevity and reliability, have since been replaced by new coil spring designs.
The barrel is mechanically locked, cold hammer-forged and polygonal rifled, and its rifling and crown have been slightly modified for increased precision.
The front of this Glock 19 for concealed carry is now beveled for easier reholstering, the steel slide sports front as well as rear serrations, and the front serrations (FS) provide an extra tactile surface to give the operator positive traction when they’re manipulating the slide, even with sweaty or wet hands.
Its ambidextrous slide stop lever, and reversible magazine catch/release, make the Glock 19 Gen5 ideal for both left and right-handed shooters.
More features include a smooth, 5.8 lb. trigger; fixed Glock sights consisting of a white contrast dot front, and a white contrast bracket rear sight; an accessory rail in front of the trigger guard to which you can mount a wide variety of tactical light and laser accessories for enhanced performance with the Gen 5 gun; and a 15-round capacity magazine.
Three (3) magazines are included in the package by default, and each of these mags come with an orange follower that allows the shooter to clearly see if there are any rounds left in the magazine or not, plus a floor plate that is extended at the front to enable faster magazine changes. Its flared mag-well makes it easier to funnel the magazines into the Gen5 G19.

Glock 19 Gen5 Additional Information
Barrel
Because the Glock 19 CCW barrel is cold hammer-forged and mechanically locked, it delivers greater accuracy and reliable functioning. To comply with the laws of certain states, its extractor serves as a loaded chamber indicator, and its position may visually and physically indicate the presence or absence of a cartridge in the chamber of the Gen 5 gun.
Barrel (& Slide) Finish
The barrel as well as slide of this pistol feature GLOCK’s latest ion-bonded nDLC coating. In addition to being a truer black to previous generations, with a matte sheen that minimizes light reflection, this exceptionally hard, advanced surface treatment offers a tougher, more durable protection, significantly reducing wear and tear, and resisting corrosion even when the Glock 19 Gen5 is operated in saltwater conditions.
Glock Safe Action System
Glock’s Safe Action System consists of three automatic independently operating mechanical safeties – trigger, firing pin and drop – built into the fire control system of the pistol. All three safeties disengage sequentially as the trigger is pulled and automatically reengage when the trigger is released.
An ideal feature that makes it absolutely safe to carry the Glock 19 concealed, or as a backup weapon, this system also ensures a consistent trigger pull from the first to the last round.
Modular Backstrap System
GLOCK’s MBS (Modular Backstrap System) offers individual operator adjustability with backstraps in two sizes; in other words, it gives you the ability to change the circumference of the grip to fit your individual hand size by adding or removing additional backstop pieces to the frame of this Glock 19 for concealed carry, including one with a beaver tail for those with larger hands. This eliminates slide bite.
Box Contents
The pistol ships from the factory with the following:
- 3 Magazines
- Mag Loader
- Cleaning Kit
- Pistol Case
- Backstrap Set
- Gun Lock
Concealed Carry Glock 19 Reviews
No doubt the Glock 19 Gen5 has had many positive reviews written of it. Here are some of such reviews to give you an idea of what shooters like you think of the 9mm pistol:
![](https://armsintel.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/g19-rev.png)
“My first Glock ever and first handgun I’ve bought in last 30 years. I Couldn’t be more impressed. Really impressed with the accuracy especially at distance farther than 50 feet. I’ve only been to the range with it once, but I put 200 rounds down range that should qualify me to give a brief review. I honestly can’t think of anything I would improve for a standard home protection or CC weapon.”

“I really wanted to buy a different concealed carry gun after using a Glock for 10+ years. I looked and looked but the Glock 19 has all the features that make it attractive for a regular Joe. I just needed a weapon that fires when I need it to without fail, holds 15 rounds, and easily concealable.”

“I was considering a CZ and am glad I bought this gun instead. Very nice sidearm!”

“Outstanding weapon. The feel and accuracy makes this my new favorite.”
![](https://armsintel.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/g19-rev5.png)
“There are sexier pistols..more exotic..more expensive..larger calibers..BUT there is not a more reliable, functional, practical, pointable pistol in the world than Glock 9s including the 19 which is popular for a damn good reason. I have a Glock 21-27-23-and 19 and none will be sold. My fav is the 27. I carried the 92F at work and it is also a great pistol but too heavy for CCW.”
