Key highlights include B&T's SPC223 and SPR86, Aimpoint's COA system for Glocks, advanced suppressors from B&T and Huxwrx, and new pistol and rifle offerings from HK, Sig Sauer, Staccato, and CZ.

Ben Stoeger compares the Glock 17 Gen 6 and Glock 47 Gen 5, emphasizing that the comparison is not apples-to-apples due to aftermarket modifications on his 47.

Stoeger prefers the 47 for its feel and familiarity but acknowledges the Gen 6 17's potential with modifications.

This video provides a detailed comparison between the Glock Gen 5 and the new Gen 6 models, highlighting key design changes and performance differences. The presenters, experienced firearms instructors, discuss improvements in grip texture, ergonomics like accelerator cuts and beaver tails, and a new optic mounting system.
