FYI there is a SCAM ACCOUNT in the comments, please do not respond. There's nothing we can really do about it. Thanks
YT is too busy trying to shadow ban channels like yours to solve the scambot problem
You owe me some free gear... and it said something about a handy.
I plan on collecting... in full!
That’s exactly what fake outlaw would say.
I’m not a Glock fan, not because the pistol isn’t great or super reliable but because I can’t stand the Glock idiots…
Stop typing!
Let me explain.
I work with several young people (around 20 years old ) who smoke lots of pot and think drinking every chance they get is a great time, and they have never been to a gun store or range, have never shot any firearm yet they think the Glock is the only pistol that exists, and wouldn’t own anything else.
Those Glock idiots….
If you asked 90% of these kids what type bullet would be best in a Glock 17 for home defense you would get a blank stair, as they searched for an answer in their pot smoked brain and all that was coming up was just how bad they wished they were stoned.
I’m not opposed to buying a Glock, in fact I plan to buy a Glock clone in the near future, or if I run across a used Glock at the right price I will buy it.
Thanks for the wonderful gun reviews Honest Outlaw.

Ha ha... I could probably enjoy a full novel's worth of content of your post.
i got this gun exactly because it came out the box exactly how i wanted to run a glock. love the tritium night sights and high capacity.... and the peanut butter color that makes everyone jelly
Hell yeah, I always say “oh it gets even better shooting it” when buddies tell me mine look awesome just off a glance.
🤣🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
BFG is way better than FDE. I live near trees and grass, not mud and feces, nor do I crawl on the ground like a snake.
Same thing with me 599.00 all bronze on mine
to you: unsatisfied = jelly
to everyone else: unsatisfied = unsatisfied
I carry a G45 for duty. And you’re right. The second I started putting in after market parts I instantly had reliability issues. I took all that junk off and now run completely stock parts.
I got a 19x a year ago. First striker fire "plastic" pistol I've ever owned. Bought it because it looks cool and I needed to have a glock platform. Super great gun so far
I wanted to give your comment a thumbs up however you have 19 ups already. Seems fitting & I don't want to be the 1 who ruined it.
I leave ALL my Glocks stock, that's really the main reason why Glocks are known for reliability. Start changing out triggers and springs, etc. and you will turn your Glock into a SCCY! 😆
Bingo!
Same here. All i did was put a 3.5LB Ghost connector in my G45 and i started getting light primer strikes with Winchester whitebox 115. I know its cheap and shitty ammo but still.
Dropped the OEM connector back in and havent had a LPS since
Yup.. Except maybe a Johnny Glock trigger🤘🏻
@Jonathan Nieve
Just those of us that put reliability over all else.
@@armorist6570 what about the Glock oem 3 .5 connector
Love the 19X. Bought the G45 from Wilson Combat and it is sick. The trigger is perfect and the stippling is flawless.
Great video Chris. I have always carried my spare magazine in a Magazine pouch. For the exact reasons that you demonstrated on this video.
I'm a retired LEO, and I've never put after market parts on any of my guns, therefore I have never had any problems!
I bought a 19x two years ago and really like it. Was my first Glock, still my only Glock but I actually think its my top 3 fave pistols I own. I've kept it stock, just didn't see any need to fk with it.
So happy you posted this! Just picked up my 19x yesterday. You’re reviews are awesome keep up the good work
How do you like it bro after having it for a minute?
@@hydroplaneconvoy8130 It’s THE handgun i would take to combat. The trigger for being a Glock trigger I think is adequate. The capacity is incredible. The night sits it comes with instead of the weak ole stock sights. They aren’t the best night sights but they are for sure a step up. Out the box it’s an amazing combat handgun.
@@MystcMac that helps me a bit better to decide on the 45, 17, or 19X. If I can get a black 19X, it's definitely my next gun. If I can't, I think I'll get the 17 because the mags fit 2 other 9mm's I have.
Love my 19x. I’ve added the extended slide release, Glock bold sights and a 33 round mag to go with it. Fantastic pistol.
Popped up on my feed and worth another watch.
Carrying my 19X this month as the weather got colder and I can cover the pistol up in an OWB holster. New holster for it too, a Safariland ALS since my thumb break has an issue with the tab. Cracked and I won't risk safety. It's older and served its duty.
Still a great video when I can see you shooting something I also own. 👊
Love mine, but like all Glocks had to replace the slide release, slide lock and mag release with extenders. Not having to replace the sights was great. Not a trigger snob so this one is just fine. The color is what really sold me.
Wow! I’m really surprised you haven’t reviewed one of these until now.
Really enjoy shooting mine. Carry it on occasion. Closing in on the 1000 round mark. Only issues I had was out of the box and the first 100 rounds. Had a few stove pipes, more than likely something I was doing wrong or ammo related. It has run great ever since. Another thing I’ve noticed is that some are either darker or lighter colored in the slides. My father-in-laws is lighter in color and I just saw one that was slightly darker than mine. I’ve considered picking up a second one as well
Well, he kinda, sorta did, about 4 years ago. If you go back and watch that one, entitled "New Glock 19X: Why I'm Not Going to Buy It" you'll get a better understanding of why it took so long. :) I do really like mine FWIW, not sure I love it, but I like it enough that it lives in my nightstand.
This was my first hand gun and was a gift from my parents, love the looks of it (we all know thats the most important part) getting ready to pick up a MOS slide for it so I can run a dot without milling my stock slide
For ammo pouches. In the military I carried both a Leatherman and a Gerber multitool. Now as a civie, I carry a Leatherman Wave in a synthetic pouch and a mag in my Leatherman Super tool leather pouch. It works well for my CZ P10C & 365XL. Does not look out of place, has the Leatherman logo and keeps lint out of mags if they were pocket carried. I do pocket a light, usually a Surefire or Scorpion. Will also switch out for an OLight if on trips as needed. Enjoy the channel and appreciate the work ya do.
I'm only a year in on my gun journey.
I wish someone would have explained the way different sights are set.
I just figured out some of my guns have combat sights.
Love your content. Mrs is great with the camera!
combat sights?
@@maddog7999The point of impact is the center of front dot as opposed to top of front sight. I was always hitting way low. Compound that with different distances, I was mess. I couldn't figure why my sight picture gave me bad results. I still keep the same sight picture (top aligned) but realize point of impact won't necessarily be there.
My first Glock ever and only Glock for a very short time :) was a Glock 45. It is so close to perfect, the only thing I changed was the cheap plastic stock sights. I put a pair of Ameriglo iDots on it and it is my favorite 9mm. Can't wait to see your 1k-rnd review, even though we probably can predict the results... Thanks for the Great content!
I really enjoy this guys reviews. Tons of information and no bs. Very knowledgeable abt shooting and definitely does his research on the firearms he’s reviewing. Keep it up man
I bought the 45 and had a timney trigger show up before the gun did. Put a hundred rounds through it with the stock trigger just in case, and put the timney in right after. About 1500 rounds later and not a single malfunction. I wasn't in love with the reset, but I got used to it. And I also miss the glock OD color!!! Great video as always.
I’ve carried a lot of different pistols over my 22 yr career. I can’t say enough great things about the Glock. We carried the sig p226 before we switched over to the Glocks. Wow, did everyone scores go up. Amazing difference
Looks great. One thing about the 'Glock angle' that I do like, besides recoil control, is that I never lose the front sight. Sure it may be 2 inches high if I switch from a Beretta or a Sig to a Glock, but it's immediately visible and I can correct right away. I don't know if that's at all intentional on Glock's part, or just me finding a silver lining, either way, I like it.
I luv Glock my dad bought a Glock 17 back in 1988 brand new at a trader’s village in Grand Prairie tx when there was gun stores at a flea market! Fast forward over 30 years an I’m carrying the Glock tradition! No regrets!
Oh btw I still have my dads Glock gen 1 and shot like the day it was bought! Only upgrade is night sights, but still have original sights that has windage adjustment!
Awesome video bud!
💯🤩👍🏼🇺🇸
Great video! Glad you're looking at this one. I love the look of the 19X, like that color too.
I'll be adding a 19x to my collection in the future. Great pistol.
43x is a great carry glock as well not sure if u have one or not but awesome for light clothing in summer. Winter time I carry FN509M a little chunkier. 👍

@@jonnychavez1879 same
Actually just picked one of these up last week! Good video - you should do a part 2. These seem to be having a mini resurgence again.
Trigger issues tend to happen from the bar not being able to travel all the way to the rear. I take dremel to where the bar meets the frame at the rear right side of the pistol and light primer strikes are resolved. As far as the 19x, definitely an awesome gun and listen, Glocks are Glocks, they do what they're supposed to do and they do it well but they're no P01 and I'd rather even have a p10 or a P07 but that's just my CZ bias coming through lol. Great job as always Chris, glad to see you growing and doing well brother, you've earned it.
Had mine for a while. Love it. More of my winter carry.
I love my 19X. It just feels so balanced and shoots really flat for me. I kept everything stock but the sights. I know it came with metal sights but my eyes didn't like the size of the notch and post so I purchased some IDot sights and that fixed that problem. I do have a 34 w/ a dot which is really fun to shoot but I'm more accurate with my 19X for some reason. You did do a video as to why you won't be buying a 19X some time ago but it's nice to see a second look at my favorite Glock. I'm sure the 45 is better with the front slide serrations, magwell and MOS system but I bought the 19X because it just looks good. Would like to know who mills your 19X slide for an optic because I'd like to do that too for a SRO, ACRO, or 509T.
I had both. The 19x and the 45. I shoot the 19x much better for some reason so I gifted the 45’to my LEO
daughter. The only thing I did to the 19X was drop in a Wilson Combat connector.
Go with the 509T. Have one on my 19x, cannot go wrong with it.

@@TonySoprano-on5iudid you get their MOS system or cut to fit a specific sight?
With all the new fangled CCWs out there, it's nice to see a new review of one of the greatest CCWs out there. Thanks Chris.
I like Glock handguns and have a couple (G22, G48) already and added the G19x to the collection a few months ago.
I like the way it shoots.
I added a O-Light to it.
Mine did come with back straps but I’m using it with the strap it came with after trying the others and not liking them.
I use my G19x for IWB carry and it feels great on my hip.
I have the G45, basically the Gen 5 black version of this one and it’s freakin awesome! It’s my coffee-table and nightstand gun and it fills that role amazingly! I carry a Glock G43X and just like all my Glocks, I keep them bone stock except for upgraded sights and I’ve never had an issue! I do plan on having my slide milled on the G43X for a RMRcc eventually! Great video as always!
yep! i redid my irons, because it looked like someone burned my front sight... now has SH trijicon. its gonna get milled for a acro once i get the unicorn in hand
Same here. My G45 mos is my nightstand gun and my G43X mos is my carry.
19x has metal sights
Love the 19x! It's one of my favorite Glocks. I have the 19x, 26, 21 and 22, and the 19x and 21 are my favorites to shoot. As you said in the video, just leave the guns stock, other than perhaps the sights and everything always works. Out of the thousands of rounds I have through all my Glocks, they have never had any issues with any types of ammunition. People I see who start changing things always have problems creep up. Thanks for the great reviews!
How is the 26? Im really thinking of that one with a extended mag for ccw
Waiting on my 1st Glock 45. Similar to this one. Big hands and a Canik fan but also have a Sig P365 xl. Looking forward to enjoying shooting it hopefully this weekend. Got it using the Glock Blue label program. I got the upgrades for what most people spend for the normal standard version price.
Great job! I enjoy your channel and all your reviews.
Love my new 19X!
I think the stock trigger is good enough, no need to replace. It's really not bad at all.
It’s not bad at all. I only change the shoe in my Glocks because shooting sessions are not very comfortable since the dingus doesn’t sit flush.
He's running an aftermarket trigger here, right?
It serves the purpose just fine.
@@catching45 yep
Agreed
I got a G 45 myself. The balance on it is better than the issued 17 I had. I too have CCW'd a 17, 19, 34 and the 45. I love the platform. Now I got a bunch of mags so switching is almost not an option.
Just swap the base plate
Appreciate the channel...You have those targets singing like church bells..."NICE"
Yeah you got me to buy a p07 and I’m used to glock so I’m still working on that different angle thing. But I gotta say I do love the feel of the cz. I got the tactical version.
I absolutely LOVE my 19X. Aside from Talon grips, mine is bone stock. I'm hoping the upgrades you get for yours inspires me to upgrade mine a bit (specifically with a barrel/brake). Can't wait for the 1,000-round review!
Don't tweak it it came set for military use literally was made for military but sig got the contract dropping their price so this is and mine are leftover set up for the military.... Army
They are beast guns!!!
@@allanblevins5119 I guess they’re comfortable with guns that fire themselves
One of my home defense guns. Just a straight up fighting handgun, won’t blow you away with features. But it does it’s job and does it well. I actually kinda like the 19x trigger. Way better than my G48 trigger, those slimline glocks have nasty triggers.
I don't like Glock Fanboys because they don't actually like Glock they like custom guns but guys like you I can respect.
@@antonsol7765 yeah I don’t get why you’d buy a $600 gun, spend more than you spent on the gun on slide cuts and stippling and triggers and shit like that. Instead of buying an actual gun with those features you want out of the box. I use glocks as strictly serious use. Only change the sights
Being the one of the only readily available factory glocks with night sights and the 19 round mags, slap a surefire on that bad boy and its probably the best option in glocks catalog for a "buy one do it all" from the factory
@@cjohnson9211 mine was made in the USA. You can tell from proof marks and it’s engraved USA on the slide. The US made glocks don’t have a serrated trigger like my other glocks do. Makes it more comfortable to shoot. And my particular 19x has a really nice glock trigger, nice crisp break and not too heavy
@@brettfettbeargaming to be honest the sights being plastic I don’t really care about. There’s very few guns from the factory that I wouldn’t change the stock sights on regardless, and the plastic ones are super easy to take out and replace. I basically see stock sights as place holders. I put XS night sights on basically every gun I buy. Only gun I liked the stock sights on is my p365.
Very coincidentally ive been watching your videos for months and even saw the video where you questioned the reasoning for the 19x. I just recently bought one for myself as my EDC (im a big guy) and was very happy to see one of my favorite guntubers to do a video of something timely to my life lol
It’s my favorite Glock. I own 2 model 19x. One has a leupold delta point micro dot and one is stock
10 mags total.
The only other 9s I own are 2 kimber Mako R7 (bundle packs).
Love these 9s
The improvements on the G45 over the 19X pushed me to the 5th gen G45, which I got early on and before the MOS system was available. When I investigated upgrading to a red dot, I found that the most cost effective option (and one which gave me 2 fully operative pistols), was to go with the IWI Masada (which is almost identical to the G45 MOS, but at about half the cost), and then put my G45 into the Command Arms MCKGEN2 MCK 2.0 Conversion Kit, with a Eotech RMR, internal light and laser on it. I couldn't be happier with how that all turned out.
they have the same gen 5 trigger
You could've got it milled for $85
Back then, it was a WHOLE LOT more, and would restrict it to only one footprint at a time when red dots were rapidly improving with new offerings. My recollection is that the milling cost was more than 3X that. So where can I get it done now for a total cost of just $85 (including shipping)?@@nikobellic3526
The aftermarket trigger is the issue. I've installed several striker springs variations in several different Glocks and have never had an issue which really surprised me. I totally expected to have light primer strikes with the 2lbs spring, but several thousand rounds later proved me wrong.
Get yourself a trigger from Johnny Glocks. His trigger kits run flawlessly and feel so good.
Almost 2k views in less than 20min! Impressive man. Keep up the good content.
Love my 19x, awesome gun!!! I keep it stock, only added the X300U. Thanks for the great video
I got 19X two years ago. Really really like this pistol. A lot more than my G19 gen 4. Wish it came with the MOS. Either way, such an enjoyable pistol to shoot. Cool vid!

@@phantomspaceman and others love them for what they are as is. And others just get their knickers in a twist because someone likes something other than what they do.
Glocks are not the most reliable guns in history. Thats nonsense. The 90's and early 2000's they had some real serious issues. They are just fine now. But they are the best gun that Glock can build for $300. Not the best guns by far. They are made to be customized.
Love your reviews and I usually watch them before making a gun purchase. Also I'm a fellow Iowan. I can tell from some of your comments you are from nears Ames. I'm from Sioux City but used to visit Ames often as I had a mother and sister living there. I have a 19x and really think it is more well balanced and shoots better than a 19. Anyway...I noticed you have an after market trigger in your 19x. You also commented about having the slide milled for a red dot. I wish reviewers would shoot stock guns before adding things. Many of us never modify our guns.
Got the 19x as my first gun a few weeks ago. Took it shooting, felt great.
Great video as usual, but I have to say one thing I really love is how you push helping out homeless shelters. That’s something that’s not always on people’s minds and you encourage your viewers to help people out and I think that’s awesome. As for the gun, I have a Glock 19 and a Glock 48, so while I tried to avoid it, I’ve inadvertently become a Glock guy and have sold my Sig SP2022. Why not, though? Glock makes a great gun. If I’m not mistaken, the Glock 45 is the same gun as the 19X, just in black, right?
I have them both and I like the 19x better

Love your videos as always. I have never been a Glock fan for a number of reasons, including not wanting to be different just like everyone else. However, the 19x in this color has my attention. I am seriously considering adding it to the collection, and this video pushed that consideration along significantly. Thanks for another great vid.
It’s worth a try. Check it out at a range if possible. And fortunately we’re not stuck to just one brand. Always a glock person myself, but just recently picked up my first Sig
NeoMag for pocket carry. Get the ones specifically for the Glock mags. The magnet is stronger to compensate for the plastic coating. For all metal mags, use their regular mag holders. Won't work on plastic or non-ferric mags. I also prefer the deep pocket version. Conceals better, but you can cheat the mag up a lot for range use, or if you spidie senses tell you a SHTF is about to occur. With a little practice, I'm as fast as a pouch. I love mine...
I have the 45. Love it.
I have 3 Glocks and the 19X is the favorite of the ones I own. It’s my bedside home defense gun. 19+1 rounds of underwood 65g +p extreme defender with a reload of 19 rounds of Speer Gold Dot 124gr +p. Not my favorite handgun but it’s a good one.

Great informative video as usual. The darn things (Glocks) work and now more than ever that matters most. I can live with less than 1911 esq triggers if I can be certain I get a bang on cue. Still love the 1911s and many others but if I can only have one I would mourn the others but take the 19X
I have the g45 mos with an rmr mounted. I shoot it much better than my g19(w/507c)for some reason, but they both shoot great. I absolutely love this platform and carry both iwb or kitted up when larping🤙
My 19x survived a reload double charge blow-up, yes it was inoperable and the slide parts blew out but the barrel and slide survived, frame was usable but cracked, glock repaired it for $100 and works like new.
Edit: I also have it as a carry gun and its a good-ish appendix carry gun
I edx a 19x I'm 6 foot 2 and only 150 pounds. So not much gut on me, but I can say it is honestly not half bad in the 1 o'clock spot. My father on the other hand get his gut pinched on anything 😅🤣
"You know what I like about Glocks?" 😆...I've been running a G17 for war and a G26 for EDC since 1993 because they WORK without fuckery, and I've never done anything to them except shoot, clean, lube and reload. Recently went to a Gen 5 G17MOS and soon will be running a G5G26 for EDC. Yes...they are boringly reliable and they work. I own and shoot many other handguns however I'll never carry anything else, unless we go Mad Max then all bets are off. Until then, Glock on! Great review, thank you for what you do!!!
Based. I plan on carrying Glock my whole life
Love the content! I’ve followed your reviews since the pandemic although I am surprised you went against your previous statement about the 19x upon its release. Either way keep up the great work. Definitely love the unbiased reviews!
Most people did. The 19X was shit on by most guntubers and then they actually shot it and ended up liking it
Great review as always, this my go to channel before I buy any gun, You’ve never let me down! Not a Glock fan (I have Walther & S&W bias )but I’m gonna take a look at the 19x next time I’m at the gun shop. I’d also like to ask if you can review the new Springfield Prodigy , gun shop owner showed it to me the other day and it looked and felt really nice! Take care !
Look at the G45 instead, besides color it's compatible with common Gen 5 mags and doesn't have the lanyard loop that's pointless in the civilian market
The 19X is my conceal carry. I really like it!
I think OVERALL the best Glock is the 26. I’m talking solely with aftermarket and potential mag capacity all the way up to 33 rounds. But can go down to 10 rounds. You can make a 26 larger, but you can’t make a 17 smaller. All Glocks are awesome though!
Glad you finally got around to reviewing this "new" gun...
I love mine. I wish it had the front serrations like my G45, these are my favorite Glock. I have back straps on my two.
"takes the most available magazines" It should be noted that it doesn't take Gen 5 17rd magazines without swapping out the baseplates. Can be annoying if you have a 19X in the mix with other 17rd Glocks, but not a big deal since Glock sells the gen4 baseplates for like $2.
It’s great for people like me who didn’t own a Glock at the time, good size with steel sights already on it.
Love mine. Put an Apex tigger in it but stayed with the stock striker spring & have no issues.
Perfect timing. I just traded my 43X and literally got one of these brand new. The 19x is my new carry gun.
I'm a Glock fan myself and just purchased the 19x last Friday. I didn't know I would like the configuration as much as I do. It feels amazing shoots amazing and looks pretty damn good for a Glock. I will def be getting my slide milled for an optic. Still don't understand why the 19x doesn't come in the MOS version. Thank you as always sor for great video.

I really really like it. It was my first Glock then the 20 next is replacing my 17 that broke. The 19x is all around better than the rest 9mm glocks. 120mms good too

Great video great review. Glad I found your channel brother, also BIG up for representing Justin G with the shirt.... beast mode.
I had the same problem you are having. The mags don’t drop out cleanly. I switched to the PPQ M1 and now I’m a happy man.
I really enjoyed my 19X. However, I tried my buddies M17 and ended up loving it. Bought myself an M18 and sold my Glock. Personally, all of the minor gripes I had with Glock ended up being solved with the P320. The trigger, grip/frame, mag release, slide lock, etc. Don't get me wrong, Glock is great and I'm not fanboying for Sig at all, but the M18 just ended up being better for me and I'm just happy I found what helps me become a better shooter.
True. If everyone goes with what works for them then good for them. Different strokes for different folks right brother. 👍 use what you are efficient with I say.
I have and carry the M18 concealed some times. The best upgrade I ever did to my M18 was getting a Wilson Combat grip module. It will make the M18 100 times better!
G19s were a step up from the Baretta 92, the M17 is a step up from G19. I shot them side by side and put a ton of rounds on both and vastly preferred the M17. Granted the glocks had a few deployments under them and the M17s are basically brand new.
The 19X is my all time favorite 9mm Glock. I own 2 of them.
I bought mine when they first came out and almost all the gun tubers bashed them about a year later all of a sudden they loved them , I have bought a few extra 19 round mags and they are all in my vest with my AR mags it also sets on my nightstand with a light I love mine not so much for everyday carry .

Look up 19x with sniper grey cerakote. The stippled grip being tan looks really good with the grey frame and slide🔥
Same I carry two myself.
@@USMC-1911 Why not for edc? Lower too long?
Great review, I’ve always been a 1911 or a .45 cal guy in general and always had a carnal dislike for Glocks for a multitude of reasons bad ergonomics, horrible trigger pill, issues with reliability and as a reloader, the Glock bulge in brass. But I got to shoot the 19x this past couple of weekends and fell in love with it and I never thought in a million years I would hear myself say this but I’ll be buying a Glock 19x
Great gun. I carry and shoot the G45/19X more than any other gun. But 1600 rounds through my G45 in the last week alone. Didn’t clean it until this morning. Zero problems.
The thing that is attracting me to the Glock 19x is the color...
I dunno with you but I love the color...
Sadly I am still hesitant...one factor is no manual safety..
I know manual safety is almost no longer a thing but growing up with the 1911 design and carrying appendix...I won't take any chances ..call me old school but I'd rather stay safe..
But that's just me...Not hating the Glock...It's just not my ideal carry...perhaps a home gun it would be a good choice...
It has three safeties already. Just don't point it at your dick!
It's as easy as putting it in the holster and not pulling it out unless you need to use it.
Don't put your finger near the trigger until you're ready to shoot, that's the manual safety on a Glock.
I've been appendix carrying striker fired double action polymer handguns for years now.
@@SuspiciousGanymede nice...
Still, I dont want to risk it...Better be safe than sorry...
@@GuilePatrick i like 1911s too, I have a few in 10mm. Having to flick the safety off as I draw isn't an issue until stress is involved like a shot timer. I trip up when flicking it off and my hand doesn't depress the grip safety enough which prevents the hammer from dropping as I squeeze the trigger. I've tried extended beavertails and a lighter/tuned leaf spring. I love them for accuracy at extended distances (75-100yds) though.
The 19x is cool but I’d personally just go with the 45 since it’s essentially a 19x with front serrations and an mos option among other things
Who needs front serrations? Has to be the most stupid trend going with handguns right now.
The coating is much more durable on the 19x plus night sights.
@@majorpwner241 personally I like front serrations because I’m left handed and it’s easier to avoid the ejection port that way. Otherwise my palm gets in the way unless I’m super careful about it
@@kyledockery4140 I'm also a lefty and this isn't an issue. Are you... racking your gun with your right hand over the slide instead of pulling it from the back??
@@majorpwner241 lol no I was joking about that. I just prefer racking from the front than the back cause it’s more comfortable for me
Thank you! Love your channel and the education you provide.
I like the Olight valkyrie light on it better but different strokes for different folks. Love your content bro.
Was tempted to get one awhile back and went With a p07 for my first pistol. I just picked up a 43x as well. Thank you for all your videos your truly my favorite gun UA-camr.
Edit: also would love to hear your take on the Springfield prodigy at some point.
Lol cz 💩 it will fail u eventually
@@jhh600 I have 2000 rounds through it so far. Any particular reason you don’t like cz?
You made the best choice possible, CZ outperforms Glock in every way no comparison, I work with thousands of firearms a year and Glocks have more problems than many others do don't listen to The Fanboys
@@jhh600 when your mom takes you to the range for the first time in a couple years let's see if you can actually hit the target Glock boy
@@jhh600 calling CZ unreliable lol now I have heard it all
Nice looking pistol
You have become my most trusted source for reviews thanks for the content
Got a Glock 43 for CCW and a Sig P320 XCompact in 9mm, love both guns. Getting a Glock 45 soon and giving the Sig to my son, he loves to shoot the Sig and is excellent shooting it on target. Glock 45 checks a lot of boxes for me. Probably putting on Trijicon night sights on it like I did for my G43.
The Glock 19X is my duty pistol. I do Level 4 PPO work and I needed something reliable that I could use in a duty holster as well as CC and Home defense. The G19X fits that perfectly. I've only had a handful of malfunctions in the first 500 rounds all due to the range ammo (TulAmmo and Blazer) I was using. When I run quality ammo it never gives me problems. For work I need reliability over everything so a Glock was an easy choice. I love the Coyote color and the 19 round mags are great. It's my Do All Combat Pistol. I like stock Glocks so I'm not going to change anything other than maybe some different sights. For now it's perfect for what I need. I'm as accurate with it that I can be currently. Remember to train people.
I would still love to see a review on the Radian RamJet Afterburner because that's a very interesting upgrade. Love your channel Outlaw. Keep up the great work.
I do not own a Glock. But think anyone who does has a reliable gun nonetheless. I like my M&P 2.0 10mm actually.
I have the compact M&P M2.0 (I think that's what it's called) in 9mm and really like it. I still need a red dot on it I have one just haven't put it on yet.
Lol looked for this review on your channel like 2 years ago when I was considering buying one….glad I pulled the trigger on it anyways lol I use it as my bedside gun now
As always great review! Thanks! Re mags…if I’m carrying I’m also carrying a OWB mag carrier
Glock isn't the first to come out with a 4 inch barrel and a full size grip like the glogkie's think. IMI (IWI) now had a 3.8 inch and a full size grip back in the 90's. Styer M9 A1 did it back in 2012. FN's FNS did it back in 2015. And they all did it better than glock. How do you get your fingers in that little trigger guard? Another great unbiased review
Colt commander has been around a lot longer than those lol. Springfield Armory had the XDM 3.8 back around 2012 or so as well.
@@protectiverailroaddad7541 I can attest to the Springfield comment. I have the XD Mod2 in 9 & 40. They just run. They both came with "standard" and "extended" magazines.
@@protectiverailroaddad7541 add them to the list. Springfield's are built like tanks
Colt Commander.....standard length frame, shortened slide/barrel.....; first made in 1949.....
The overall "best glock " is still the og gen 3 G19!! If you need more capacity..you have the 17 round and 33 round magazines!
The finger grooves are too small to be comfortable in my hand. 19X solved that though, among other issues with gen 3s, like the fact they are not ambidextrous.
Nice I run a 19 for work .always comfortable to keep on .not trouble sitting .shoots great.
I’ve got 2 old school 2006-ish OD green ones… a 19 and 17. I will NEVER get rid of them.
Love this gun a lot. It's one of the top guns on my bucket list to buy. I wish they offered it with the manual safety like the XM17 entry. I think they would sell like crazy and maybe glock would start offering more models with a safety as an option once they see the demand for them. I love the glocks I have, but it would be nice to get them with a safety. They're missing out on so much business because there's a lot of people who simply won't buy them because they don't have a manual safety.
Manual safety is pointless on a striker fired gun if you have a quality holster.
I think they were dumb for ignoring the m9a3, but I would have much rathered this over the p320.
I almost got a 19x or a 45 because my pinky dangles off of the Glock 19 grip which I hate. I ended up getting a CZ P10c because of your review (which was much cheaper) and I love it
About damn time you actually shot a 19X. I comment on another of your videos you roasted Glock and the 19X without ever holding or shooting one.
