This review of the new Glock Gen 6 G45, purchased by the reviewer, highlights incremental improvements over the Gen 5, particularly in grip texture and the integrated beaver tail, which significantly reduces slide bite. While the pistol maintains Glock's renowned reliability, the reviewer notes missed opportunities in areas like the optics cut depth and plastic optic plates, suggesting it's a solid evolution rather than a revolutionary leap. The review emphasizes that existing Gen 5 owners with custom modifications may not find a compelling reason to upgrade.

This video focuses on the Trigger Shark brand, specifically highlighting their triggers for Glock's "V Series" pistols. The content likely involves a review or demonstration of these aftermarket triggers, aiming to showcase their performance and potentially how they enhance the shooting experience of Glock firearms.

This video discusses trigger control, emphasizing the importance of identifying the break point and reset. The speaker argues that Glock triggers, despite claims of a 'rolling break,' are easily identifiable and conducive to fast shooting when understood correctly. The focus is on mastering trigger manipulation for improved shooting speed and accuracy.

This video explores the nuances of Glock trigger designs, specifically comparing a 'defined wall' trigger with a 'rolling brake' prototype from Tactical Trigger. The speaker, Joel Park, details his experience swapping triggers between a Glock 47 with a Tactical Trigger and another with an Apex Trigger. He highlights the subjective nature of trigger preference, discussing how different trigger types suit various shooting styles, such as 'prep and press' versus a single-motion pull.

This review highlights the Beretta M9A4's single-action trigger, asserting it rivals or surpasses most production 1911 and 2011 triggers in smoothness, repeatable break, and reset. The instructor notes an initial adjustment period for trigger reach, leading to minor accuracy shifts, but emphasizes that this was overcome within the first thousand rounds of a 6,000-round test.

This video provides a detailed comparison of the Beretta M9A4 trigger against typical Glock triggers, highlighting the M9A4's smoother and more consistent pull. The instructor notes that stock Glock triggers often have a 'rusty gate' feel, while the M9A4 offers a consistent break point. The M9A4's double-action pull is described as comparable in feel to a 1911's trigger.
