The Glock GenV discussion centers on whether the changes made were too little or too much, with the consensus leaning towards minimal substantive changes. The primary modification noted is to the back plate, designed to prevent the use of Glock switches, thereby limiting manufacturer liability. The video explores whether these changes were driven by California regulations or simply a proactive measure against aftermarket modifications, concluding that the changes are unlikely to make the GenV models California legal.
The video discusses Glock's redesign of its firearms in response to California's ban on guns with a specific trigger bar system, often associated with 'Glock switches'. The speaker argues this is not Glock bowing to pressure but rather outsmarting California by rendering the new law ineffective. The changes are internal, with external appearances remaining identical, and the speaker believes the aftermarket parts industry will adapt, as has historically happened with new Glock generations.
