It's thicker than the industry standard single-stack pocket 9mm handguns, including the PPS and XDS.

It's even thicker than the S&W Shield, which isn't even an actual single-stack, but rather uses a semi-staggered magazine.

It holds fewer rounds than both the Shield and XDS, despite being bigger.

It will cost more than the Shield and many others.

But, it's still a Glock, so the fanboys will buy the hell out of them at first making them scarce and causing them sell for over retail no doubt.


Me?   I think they really screwed up with this one and I'll pass. I see no advantage to it over my LC9s, but hey...  whatever trips your trigger I suppose.

Mntnman:
Basically the same size as the 26, just a tiny bit slimmer. I didn't really care for my 26. I would rather carry a 19 instead. My carry gun is a Shield and I would carry that over them all.

RobertH:
im a S&W fan, but what does Mr Zeeb think of it?

tstuart34:
I really like my 17 really like it. I don't care for small guns because of my big clumsy hands. I really need to look into a 19 for something to carry. Looks like Glock maybe missed again.

Dan W:
I can't live with 6+1 when my G26 holds 12+1
