Stumbled across this and just had to share…
Wow. Almost believable, too.
Great find!
The truth is hilarious.
Good stuff - and so true.
Oh god… Laughed pretty dang hard. Then cried a little.
Outstanding! I can almost see them sitting around talking about it now…nice “break in period…got that from kimber”…too funny!
:big_boss:
That vid has been circulating since mid 2011 on Xtranormal.com, and I love it so much I added it back then to the home screen on my Apples…
To this day I love watching it as much as www.youtube.com/watch?v=iQYep23-onw
Would you bet who laughs last? ![]()
wow, this really hit nearly every complaint that I have with the gen4. I don’t even like the serrations, all they do is irritate the hell out of me when i try to carry my 19 concealed
I’m surprised it’s only been viewed 2000 times; must be a fairly new video - funny though. Everyone should email it to glock.
Since this is a humor, I hope I can thread-jack without upsetting too many people. I’ll probably purchase a G19 in the near future and have decided that if I do, I’ll purchase a gen 3. However, I’ve read that Glock has continued to produce the gen 3 since the inception of the gen 4. I assume this means that the newer gen 3s are made with the same inferior parts as the gen 4s. So, how old of a gen 3 do I need to puchase to ensure it’s made with quality parts?
…
That’s awesome. Someone should sent this to Glock corporate.
agreed
Actually I think it it 2009 and older models.
this is the only thing that has made me happy today:haha: More than cleaning my M4 and Glock collection after a range session.
I posted this because it’s freakin’ hilarious to those who are in the know… but what’s kinda sad is all the excuses that have become commonplace that guys keep making about the Gen4’s as they continue to F-up left and right… I tried 3 different Gen4’s that were all just miserable, and I really liked the 2mm smaller grip and really wanted to believe, but think I’ve seen enough.
Even at my agency, almost to a man, every single officer who went to a Gen4 is back with their Gen3 and the training staff is considering banning them due to what they’ve been seeing from them while training and qualifying guys.
Just today I shot IDPA where a guy said to me “the Gen4’s are fine now, all the bugs are worked out, I’ve got 500rds through this one with only 4 malfunctions, pretty solid…”, I just said “that’s cool” (to avoid the nonsense) while thinking about my 6 Gen3’s that I’ve had over the last 5-6 years where I’ve experienced maybe 2 malf’s that weren’t ammo related over thousands of rounds (usually without much/any cleaning). Couldn’t help but think: “guys don’t even know anymore”. Glocks were known for NOT-jamming, seeing one that hadn’t been fiddled with choke at the range or a match was as rare as a solar eclipse, now it just means you must not know about the newest RSA/extractor/ejector/etc…
Lame.
That’s pretty funny.
Pretty funny and mostly true.
Glock took a pretty robust and reliable item and turned it into something many of us will never buy.
…sad
Thats ok, SIG also self-destructed when they went to cranking out tons of variations on their once-trusted P-series guns and let their QC go downhill.
…we have a trend.

This makes me worry… My department is about to switch from .38 Revolvers to G19 so I was going to finally take a drink from the Glock koolaid. Sadly all I am reading is how fail the Gen4’s are…
I bought an affected Gen4 Glock 19. The problems are obvious and would show up just in your first shooting session. Glock knows what the problems are and fixes them for free. Yet people continue to bitch and moan. It’s not like the 3rd generation models are much different than the 2nd generation.
