Frequently Asked Questions

What are the key differences between the Glock 23 and Glock 19?

The Glock 23 is chambered in .40 S&W and has a slightly thicker slide and barrel than the Glock 19, which is chambered in 9mm. Both share the same compact frame size, but the .40 S&W round results in more perceived recoil.

How can I make it easier to rack the slide on a Glock 23?

For easier slide manipulation on a Glock 23, especially if you have smaller hands, try a 'cheat code' technique. Push forward slightly with your dominant thumb while simultaneously pulling the slide back with your support hand.

Is the .40 S&W recoil in the Glock 23 manageable?

The recoil of the .40 S&W round in the Glock 23 is described as 'snappy' but manageable by the speaker. However, for those sensitive to recoil, a 9mm pistol like the Glock 19 might be a more comfortable option.

What caliber is the Glock 23 typically chambered in?

The Glock 23 is most commonly chambered in the .40 Smith & Wesson (.40 S&W) caliber. This provides a balance of power and size in a compact pistol platform.
