Plus you don’t have to spend any other money. That said, the factory Glock 19 Gen 5 magwell is better than pretty much all other options. There are a variety of aftermarket Magwells these days for most guns out there. This is a huge feature that sets the Glock 19 Gen 5 well above many of its competitors in the speed reload category. Both frames though have a very large beveled Magwell at the bottom of the frame. I prefer the Glock 19 Gen 5 MOS frame as it does not have that half-moon cut out.

Personally, I do not care for that feature on the Glock 19 Gen 5. If you have some sort of malfunction that requires you to strip out the mag it’s a nice touch. In theory to help you strip out a mag easier. The standard Glock 19 Gen 5 comes with a grip that has a half-moon cutout on the front of the Magwell.

Glock 19 Gen 5 Review Overall Ergonomics.It’s somewhere between those models and the Glock Gen 3 RTF 2 texturing. DifferencesĪ notable change on the Glock Gen 5 was the texturing is more aggressive than previous generations. There were finger grooves on the Gen 3 and Gen 4 models going back to the solid grip that was on the Gen 2 and Gen 1 guns. On the Glock 19 Gen 5, they took away the finger grooves. They changed the size of the base grip to be a little bit smaller than the standard Gen 3.Īnd Gen 5 was no exception to this rule. When they introduced the Gen 4 they added the ability to add extra back straps to increase the size of the grip. For example, the Glock Gen 2 didn’t have finger grooves, when they introduced the Glock Gen 3 they added finger grooves and a light rail on the front of the dust cover. The difference between the generations is normally fairly minor, especially from the outside. There are also a ton of Glock Gen 3s and Glock Gen 4s both in the 19 configurations. There are a variety of Glock 19 Gen 2s on the market. It’s a rumor there may be Glock Gen 1 19s but I haven’t been able to verify that.
