Glock has introduced its first ever “Crossover” pistol, the Glock 19X, which combines features of two of its most popular platforms—a full-size Glock 17 frame and the compact Glock 19 slide. 

“The G19X was developed for the military and is a practical everyday pistol that will do what you need it to do, when you need it to, every time, in every condition,” said Glock Vice President Josh Dorsey. “With proven testing results and fewer parts than our competitors’ pistols, the G19X has maximum efficiency, reliability and is easy to maintain.”

The Glock 19X’s improved nPVD slide coating prevents corrosion, resists chemicals and stands up against the elements. The pistol comes in coyote color and includes a standard 17-round magazine and two 17+2-round magazines along with a coyote-colored pistol case.  

Among the additional design features of the G19X are the Glock Marksman Barrel (GMB), which delivers increased accuracy with enhanced polygonal rifling and an improved barrel crown, no finger grooves, ambidextrous slide stop levers for better versatility, and a lanyard loop.

The G19X will be available Jan. 22, 2018 at select dealers.
