The newest generation of Glock 17 and Glock 19 pistols are here. Based on the M-series of guns designed for the FBI contract, the Gen5 9 mm Luger pistols feature a new metal finish, the Glock Marksman Barrel, a contoured slide and flared magazine well. Noticeably absent are the grip frame’s finger grooves.
