Looking for Feedback on Glock 19 Gen4 MOS: Worth the Hype?

Upgrading to fiber optic sights has been a game changer in terms of visibility for me. I can’t believe I waited so long to make that change! Anyone else feel like game-changing upgrades are often the simplest?

So true! It’s often the little tweaks that make the biggest differences. What brand of fiber optics did you go with?

I’ve been swapping out my backstraps to see what feels best, but man, it’s hard to tell! Does anyone have tips on finding the right fit for grip?

I struggled with that too, edward70. I finally settled on the medium backstrap, but it took some trial and error! Definitely worth the effort.

I joke that my Glock is a ‘Franken-Glock’ with all the mods I’ve done! Tactical light, crazy sights – it’s a blast to customize, but sometimes I wonder if I’ve gone overboard. Anyone else?

Haha, I get that! Some days I wish I could just go back to basics, but those mods are too much fun to give up!

Reflecting on all these upgrades, I think the experience of shooting improves as we personalize our firearms. The balance between performance and preference is fascinating!

I’ve been using the Glock 19 Gen4 MOS for a while and it’s impressive. The modular optics system gives you flexibility that other models lack. How does it stack up against the Gen5, though?

Exactly! I love the versatility of the Gen4 MOS for mounting optics. It really makes it a standout compared to the standard Glock 19.

I find the Gen4 MOS a bit heavier than I expected, especially compared to the Sig P320. Anyone else feel that way?

I’ve noticed the weight too, but it feels more stable in my hands. So I guess it has its pros and cons!

The adjustable backstraps on the Gen4 are a game-changer for those with smaller hands. Pairing that with the optic capability seals the deal for me.

Absolutely! I have fairly small hands, and it makes all the difference. Just wish more models had this feature.

How does the Gen4 MOS compare in recoil management versus, say, the Walther PPQ? I’ve heard varying opinions.

From my experience, the recoil is quite manageable, though some say the PPQ has an edge. I do find it easier to control on rapid shots.

I bought mine after hearing all the hype, but honestly, I prefer my Glock 17. Could just be personal preference!

Definitely! I think it boils down to what feels right for you. My Gen4 MOS is fantastic, but I totally get why people might lean toward other models.

I’ve had decent experiences personally, but some friends had issues. It’s hit or miss from what I hear.

On a lighter note, I always joke that Glock should come out with a ‘Glock 19: now with glitter finish’ to attract even more buyers!
