THE GLOCK VIDEO | Why this Green Beret chooses Glock | Tactical Rifleman

This video delves into the potential collectability of the short-lived Glock Gen 5V, comparing it to previous generations like the RTF2. The speaker, demonstrating high expertise in firearm ergonomics and history, analyzes rumored Glock Gen 6 features including a new optics system, enhanced grip texture, and frame modifications. He offers a practical perspective on whether these updates warrant an immediate upgrade for existing Glock owners.

This video reviews four handguns lauded for their exceptional reliability and owner satisfaction: the CZ 75, Beretta 92FS, Sig Sauer P226, and Glock 19. Rankings are based on extensive real-world data, including tens of thousands of rounds fired and decades of reliability information. The Glock 19 emerges as the top pick for its ultimate utility, simplicity, and durability.

This expert-level comparison, presented by a firearms instructor from Gun For Hire Range, details the key differences between Glock Gen 3 and Gen 5 pistols. It highlights Gen 5 improvements like ambidextrous controls, enhanced modularity (e.g., slide/frame swaps), a tapered slide for easier holstering, removal of finger grooves, a flared magwell for faster reloads, and front slide serrations. The instructor also touches on recoil assembly differences and personal preferences, offering valuable insights for firearm enthusiasts.

This 'Gun of the Week' review highlights the Ruger RXM, a 9mm striker-fired pistol that leverages Glock Gen 3 architecture. It features a Magpul-made polymer frame, a chassis-style fire control group for modularity, and an optics-ready slide. The RXM is presented as a strong contender in the concealed carry market, offering customization options and compatibility with Glock magazines.

This expert-level review by Hickok45 provides a detailed comparison between the Glock 19X and Glock 45. Key differences highlighted include the 19X's military trial origins, its specific grip lip affecting magazine compatibility with certain Gen5 magazines, and sight configurations. The video emphasizes their shared 'Glock Crossover' design of a full-size grip with a compact slide, offering practical insights for potential buyers.

This video provides an update on the Ruger RXM, focusing on the integration of Magpul's EHG grip modules. The instructor, demonstrating significant experience, highlights the ease of swapping grip modules by removing two pins. The comparison to Glock models and the availability of different Magpul frame sizes (full-size and Glock 26) are key takeaways. Ruger factory updates, including threaded barrel models, are also briefly covered.

In close-quarters combat, drawing a pistol can be dangerous as an opponent can easily grab the firearm. A tactical knife offers a safer alternative, allowing the user to create space by targeting vital areas like the carotid artery or kidneys. This space allows for a safe transition back to a firearm. The video demonstrates this strategy using a Glock pistol and a fixed-blade knife.

This video details crucial footwork techniques for Navy SEALs during Close Quarters Combat (CQC). It emphasizes 'economy of motion' and the 'long step' technique for balanced entry into corner-fed rooms, ensuring immediate engagement capability. Proper footwork prevents exposing vulnerable side plates and maintains a stable shooting platform.

This video demonstrates a clever modification of standard military cloth bandoliers to increase their magazine capacity. By releasing a hidden white string, the pockets expand, allowing them to hold one or even two 5.56mm magazines each. Special Forces operators pack these expanded bandoliers with other essentials for rapid emergency resupply in the field.

This ballistic gel test compares 9mm Barnes TAC-XPD and .45 ACP Cor-Bon Pow'RBall. The 9mm achieved deeper penetration (13-14 inches) with consistent expansion, while the .45 ACP created a larger wound cavity and significant energy transfer but slightly less penetration. The Cor-Bon Pow'RBall's design enhances feeding reliability in 1911 platforms.
