A Gen 2 with a rounded nose.

And the bar went where...?

with the removal of finger gooves the bar went way up for me.  The 19's have never fit my hand until now.

Pretty well sums up that Glock is becoming like Colt, people will buy it because of the name (albeit I like Glock far better than Colt).  Handled one tonight and it was meh.  Some upgrades have been made, cool, but nothing earth shattering.  I'll admit that one will probably find its way into my collection in maybe a year or two when all the kinks have been worked out and aftermarket support has dropped in price.

The only reason I would personally want a Gen5 over a Gen4 is the grip without finger grooves, but there's already a gen2 for that at half the price and known quality. I still need to hold one, but based on the reviews, I had higher hopes for this.

I fondled one at GT's and I am considering one now.  I have to say though, the trigger was the best I have ever felt on a Glock. The cut out in the bottom actually didn't bother me as much as it does on a Gen2; weird I know. The slide finish may actually be as great as it once was, but only time will tell for sure.  The improved night sight I could definitely live with.  I could tell the gun was wider in the flared magwell and the because of the ambi slide release.  I am curious how many holsters the gen5 will not fit because of the thickness of the ambi slide release.

Is it only wider at the flared magwell, or is the whole grip wider than a gen2?

It's same as a Gen 4. Just wider at the bottom.

I don't like this guy because he is annoying and his video of the Beretta APX disassembly was jus stupid and he made a big deal over nothing. But ,,,,,, I agree with him on this video of the Gen 5 Glock.

What's the advantage of the UT follower? Seriously.

Safety advantage through orange follower

The orange follower allows the shooter to clearly see if there are any rounds left in the magazine or not.

Go Vols.

Slide locked back or not isn't enough notification?

It's kind of like "Grip Zone". You didn't know you needed it before you had it.

I remember a guy telling me he didn't like 1911's because there wasn't a loaded chamber indicator. I said, "Hammer back isn't enough??"
