I lifted this from TOS. Pick taken on 6/17 at the Glock factory. I have no further info.

Looks good. I haven’t followed up yet but had good source tell me they should have been released into the wild this week. I know … it isn’t true unless you post pics … I’m just saying.
I wish they would have added FCS to the Gen4’s.
What’s a “FCS”?
Front Cocking Serrations
That looks strong.
Might
need
to
investigate
closer…
Looks like they might have widened the first finger groove area below the trigger guard. If so, great!
The 17/22 and the 26/27 both have 3 rows of checkering between each swell. The 19/23 only have two rows in the area below the trigger guard and it has always felt cramped and caused me to sand down the finger grooves on my 23.
Definitely will be purchased.
Agreed, I hope so, although I want a 17 too since I can’t fit my hand on my 19 while wearing gloves. Guess I’ll just had to buy all 3 sizes, damn.
In regards to front cocking serrations, why? I’ve never seen the need…
Because some people can’t resist cool-guy press checking. 
Seriously, I agree. I don’t see the need and I don’t want to pay for the extra machining. But I do want one of these.

Looks very promising. This will definitely be on my purchase list. Happy Father’s Day maybe…
Im liking it.
It has a slimmer frame than the Gen3 right?
I’m buying one as soon as they hit the shelves…
I was sold on trading up when they were released… until I shot an M&P. I’ll see if I can finger bang one when it hits the shelves anyway.
i can’t tell in the pic, but is the back strap still inter-changeable? it doesn’t look it.
With Glock, the back-straps aren’t interchangable, you either add on the medium or large or leave it off for small.

It has the same odd recessed shape for the pin to attach the larger grips. I’m really liking this and I HATE “walking away” from Smith & Wesson as I really like the M&P but a new wave of “something” (some of my fellow brethren call it wisdom) has been driving “Dependability, Reliability, Durability, Serviceability” lately and now that the frames fit ME a helluva lot more comfortably I’m jonesin’ Glocks. And it feels good.
I will need to attend Glockaholics Anonymous before it’s over; I can just sense it.
My households good Gen 4 G17 experience (3700 flawless rounds through two specimens) has me feeling pretty cocky about being an early adopter for the new 19 also. If there is any chance they will “water down” the springs I’ll want one of the first on the chance they introduce with the high octane strength springs to see how those run and handle.
