Gun Review GLOCK 4. The Truth About Guns. The G4. 2 for this review was provided by The Kentucky Gun Company. With their oh so sly teaser ad campaign and the fact that it seemed like GLOCK hadnt introduced a new gun since late in the first Clinton administration, the company did a marvelous job of whipping up loads of interest and anticipation for their new gun. Firearms folk had been hankering for a slim, single stack, Tenifer coated, easily concealable nine since, well, late in the first Clinton administration.

Glock 22 Metal Airsoft' title='Glock 22 Metal Airsoft' />But Smyrna and their Teutonic overlords had other plans. In their judgement, what America really needed was a slim, single stack, Tenifer coated, easily concealable. So when word broke that Gastons new gun was chambered in something less than full blown 9mm. Miley Cyrus twerk off. Were talking wailing, gnashing of teeth, rending of clothing, predictions of dogs and cats living together, real wrath of God type stuff. But despite all of the sturm und drang, this is, after all, a GLOCK were talking about, right Perfection. As the teaser ad claimed, the only other thing smaller than the G4. Zippo lighter. Only thats not quite true. But more on reliability later. A funny thing happened on the way to the clearance bin. When people actually got their hands on the new packable pistol, most were seriously impressed. Yes, its a little bigger than a P3. AT or LCP, but its remarkably comfortable to hold and wont bruise your palm at the range. Sure, its a little longer than most. People like me with small hands loved the feel of the gun. And whaddaya know GLOCK has been selling truckloads of the things since they first hit the stores. Maybe not everyone was as disappointed as it seemed. So in evaluating the GLOCK 4. You dont buy a 4. OK with carrying a. You buy one because it is, in fact, a slim, easily concealed, relatively light weight pistol that youre likely to pack every day. And unlike some of its similarly chambered competitors, being a GLOCK, it ships from the factory with a reputation for quality and reliability. Two rather important features everyone wants in their carry gun, no matter the caliber. Make no mistake, the G4. GLOCK. It looks kinda like they tossed a G1. While the 4. 2 isnt listed as a Gen. GLOCKs latest design features and it does. No, there arent any interchangeable backstraps here. If your paw is too big to wrap around a 4. The US made. 3. By my caliper, the slide measures a fairly svelte. All the early gnashing of teeth that went on about the HUGE new. GLOCK was foisting on the American market, it seems, was mostly over hyped bleating by people who hadnt even seen the gun yet. Kel Tec P3. AT with CT Laser. Guard on top of the G4. Thats not to say that the 4. P3. ATit is. I own a P3. AT Im lucky to have one of the good ones and I carry it a lot. Particularly in the summer, or when I need to pocket carry. Can you tote the G4. Absolutely, and I have. But its not as small or concealable as the little Kel Tec or an LCP, particularly in jeans. While the 4. 2s length and width G4. P3. AT. 7. 7 are only marginally bigger, those extra millimeters do make a difference. At least they do to me. A good illustration of the size difference is that I can only get 1 12 fingers on the P3. AT non extended grip, but can easily fit two on the 4. As far as the pistols controls go, everything is GLOCK as usual. Safe Action trigger check. Slide lock check. Mag release check. Takedown lever check. Its all right where it should be. And the field stripping process is exactly the same as it is on every other G something youve ever seen. Thats not to say there arent a few differences. One is the grip. The 4. Gen. 4 ish texturing, but its not nearly as rough as the bumps found on its bigger brothers. Unlike the big boys but similar to the 2. This gives you a little more palm room to hold the smaller gun and still ensures that the mag will drop free when your press the release. Another difference is in the trigger, though its minor. I side by sided the 4. Dirk Digglers similarly sized but much wider G2. The G4. 2 is missing the 2. The 4. 2 also has a slightly shorter re set distance, too. While we didnt have a pull weight scale, both triggers were close enough that any difference was negligible. And the G4. 2 has the same characteristic feel for better or worse that GLOCK owners have come to know and love in their bangswitches. So with a few relatively minor differences, the GLOCK 4. GLOCK youve ever seen or shot. And thats a good thing. No matter what you think of their guns, if you pick up any GLOCK in the dark, you know exactly where everything is and how to use the gun. No fumbling, no feeling around they all work the same. The 4. 2 is no exception. Which brings us to shooting this baby. Lets get one thing out of the way first the G4. Ive ever tried. And its not hard to see why. The GLOCK is a little larger and slightly heavier than most other. Two similar guns that Ive compared with the G4. P3. AT and Dirk Digglers P2. P2. 38 was only slightly so when using the same ammo. Im not sure if Sheldon Cooper said it, but physics is physics. You cant fool mother natureor Sir Isaac Newton. A gun that weighs more and fills your hand more fully will yield less felt recoil. That means no problems at the range, rightWell, not exactly. While GLOCKs have the well earned reputation for being able to shoot virtually anything you can cram in a magazine, thats decidedly not the case with the G4. The babiest GLOCK has some very specific ideas about what it will and wont eat. As some other shooters have already found, the vast majority of rounds work just fine. But heavier, higher pressure rounds and even some lighter stuff might as well be steamed brussels sprouts as far as the G4. Ive put over 5. 00 rounds of various brands, weights and types through the gun so far, most of them, flawlessly. Everything from gun show bagged reloads to Russian cheap stuff up to Hornadys best. But not everything works. Hickok. 45 found that super snappy, 1. Buffalo Bore P rounds tend to lock the GLOCKs slide back with rounds still in the mag. Repeating the experiment, Dirk and I confirmed that for ourselves. And if Buffalo Bore makes the 4. Freedom Munitions 1. Arabic Pdf Editor. On the other end of the spectrum, a relatively lighter shooting round like the Barnes XPD doesnt seem to cycle the gun at all. So it would seem that the 4. Meaning as long as your ammo of choice would please Goldilocks not too hot and not too cold youll have no problems at all. While GLOCK has had, well, difficulties with new springs in the past, the G4. The takeaway here is that the GLOCK 4. The petite pistol will happily touch off most commercially available range and personal defense rounds out there, but if you select something thats too far out there on either end of the weightpressure spectrum, you may very well have problems. Is that a deal breaker Hardly. Most guns favor certain ammo over others. While its not what weve come to expect from GLOCKs, I dont have a problem putting in a little range time to make sure my carry gun reliably runs the ammo Im putting into it. Hell, Im going to do that anyway. And for reference sake, two of the. Shooting. The. Bull. Hornady Custom and the champ, Precision One worked flawlessly. As for accuracyplease. This is a soft shooting pistol with excellent for its caliber sights. You wont have any difficulty hitting anything toward which you point a 4.
