Gen 4 Glocks

[RobG]

I thought the RTF Glocks were gen 4, but I opened up my newest gun mag and there is an ad for Gen 4 coming out in 2010. I did some quick research and see that they will be introducing the old slides (non-scallop) w/ a new frame that has adjustable back straps.

Can anyone confirm this information or better yet, any pics?

I haven't been up to date on gun news so fill me in. Thanks!

Wow, that could be a HUGE positive if true. There are soooo many, myself included, that are turned off by the Glock grip angle/bump. Better start saving some $$ JIC

If it's redesigned, it won't make the roster. Just like the Picatinny G21 didn't make it

The HK P30 is just a redesign of the P2000.

Are you talking about the Glock 21SF? It is on the roster.....

So what's the deal with the picatinny rail they put on the 21SF? Any advantages/disadvantages to this rail over the gen. 3 rails?

Not the Picatinny rail version. When the SF was approved they shipped in the picatinny version as well, but this was soon put to a stop, by the DoJ. As it was not approved.

Ah, I see the STD is the standard Glock rail. There goes my plans for that then!

so they're keeping the finger grooves...

Looks like they're going to be way less pronounced which I feel is a good thing. My hands are too big for the grooves which sucks. I may trade in my guns for new ones if they fit better. If they don't, I'm considering going the custom route.

looks like gen 3 + robar is the way to go

not gaining anything by buying the gen 4...

[mala in se]

this is all interesting, and i can't wait to see what develops. i hope they don't do anything to make it non-cali compliant.

i remember drooling over the new sigs a few years back only to see that elite sigs aren't on the roster.

i would hate to see all these new bells & whistles only to not be able to purchase one.

either way i am interested in seeing on how these turn out.

dude good luck with the roster. taurus is notorious for having an *** load of guns on the roster. yet none of their new for 09 compact models are on it. so if there are major design changes its a good chance we wont see it here. and for me these changes would force me to purchase a glock.

For the Gen 4 to be CA-compliant, it would have to have a loaded chamber indicator and a magazine safety, right? As long as that's the case, I think I'm going to enjoy my Gen 3.
