This video discusses the comfort and functionality of the Gen 6 Glock 17 after extensive shooting. The speaker highlights that despite firing 6,000 rounds, general discomfort related to the gun's function was minimal, with only expected fatigue in the wrists and support hand. The firearm's predictable recoil and consistent trigger pull are noted as key factors contributing to control and the ability to place shots accurately, even when shooting faster. The stock trigger is deemed adequate for most, with options for reduced weight striker springs for those seeking lighter pulls. The trigger shoe's shape is praised for maintaining consistent finger placement and enhancing dexterity, ultimately aiding in straighter shooting.

This video discusses the functional and comfort improvements of the Gen 6 Glock 17's trigger shoe. The hooked angle at the bottom of the shoe enhances dexterity during the trigger press, providing greater command and predictability, even with a standard Glock trigger weight. This design also mitigates finger discomfort during high-volume shooting, a common issue with previous generations like the Gen 4 and Gen 5.

This video discusses specific ergonomic enhancements on the Gen 6 Glock 17, focusing on the single undercut on the trigger guard and the deeply cut beaver tail. The instructor notes these features allow for a higher grip, potentially reducing muzzle rise and improving control, especially for users with larger hands or when wearing gloves. The presence of these features provides confidence in the purchase by offering tangible improvements over previous generations.

This comprehensive review by Regular Guy Training LLC details the performance of the Holosun 507 Comp after 35,000 rounds. The instructor highlights its robust reliability, consistent turret performance, and suitability for duty and competition. However, limitations in brightness and battery life, particularly with the circle-only reticle, are noted as potential drawbacks for some users. Despite these minor issues, the optic is deemed a solid, proven performer, especially compared to other open-emitter designs.

The Gen 6 Glock 17 features an improved grip texture that the reviewer found surprisingly effective, negating the usual need for immediate grip modification. The 'gas pedal' feature is noted as a solid reference point rather than a functional gas pedal. This iteration of the Glock is praised for its out-of-the-box ergonomics.

This video discusses improvements to the Glock 17 Gen 6 frame, specifically focusing on the grip texturing. The presenter notes that previous Glock generations had poor grip texture, often requiring modification. The Gen 6 texture is described as a blend reminiscent of RTF2 and Gen 4, featuring finer and more numerous bumps with a rougher texture underneath, which is a significant improvement over the Gen 5's slicker surface and less aggressive bumps.

The Gen 6 Glock 17 features a redesigned extractor and plunger assembly, which is an independent unit. This redesign aims to prevent Loctite from contaminating the extractor/plunger area during optic mounting. While the speaker notes consistent ejection with previous models, this change also contributes to a slightly higher bore axis, similar to designs seen in Shadow Systems pistols.

This video discusses the compatibility of Glock Gen 5 barrels with Gen 6 Glocks, noting that while Glock officially states they are not compatible, anecdotal evidence suggests they do function. The speaker emphasizes the inherent accuracy and durability of stock Glock barrels, stating they are practically indestructible and will last indefinitely with proper care.

This guide details an efficient reload technique for the MP5, emphasizing minimal movement and proper manipulation of the charging handle and magazine release. It highlights the differences from AR-15 reloads and stresses ensuring the magazine is properly seated before releasing the bolt.

This video provides a technical overview of the barrel in the Gen 6 Glock 17. It highlights the duty-rated recoil spring package and discusses the barrel's polygonal rifling, noting its strength, accuracy, and comparison to aftermarket options. A specific relief cut for the redesigned extractor is also detailed.

This segment of the Regular Guy Training LLC video focuses on the slide serrations and recoil system of the Gen 6 Glock 17. The instructor highlights the improved design of the front slide serrations, noting their fatter and deeper profile at the front, which thins out towards the frame, providing superior grip compared to previous generations and other models like the RXM. The guide rod and recoil spring assembly is also discussed, with the Gen 6 adopting a single-coil spring and Gen 3-style guide rod, a change from the Gen 4 and 5. Glock's rationale for this change is attributed to addressing failure points in earlier generations under extreme testing.

The Gen 6 Glock 17 is essentially a Gen 5 17, featuring interchangeable slides and frames with other models like the 19 and 45. While holster compatibility is generally not an issue, the speaker expresses dissatisfaction with the inclusion of old-style plastic sights on new firearms, recommending aftermarket sights for improved durability and functionality, especially for those running optics.
