Did Glock Make The Same Gun Twice?
This video compares the Glock 19X and Glock 45, highlighting their similarities and key differences. While both feature a Glock 17-sized grip and a Glock 19-sized slide, the 19X has a unique lip on its magazine base that prevents standard Gen 5 Glock magazines from seating properly without modification. The 19X also comes in Coyote Tan and lacks front slide serrations on some early models, whereas the Glock 45 typically includes them. Both are optics-ready and suitable for various applications.
