Pistol

The Glock 41 Gen 4!

February 13, 2014 by Nick Irving 10 Comments

For the Glock fans out there, I’m sure you’ll be glad to hear that Glock has introduced a new pistol to the family. The Glock 41 Gen 4 .45 ACP.

The Glock 41 Gen 4 is built with a G34 (9mm) slide and a G21 Gen4 (.45) frame, the G41 is 2.3 ounces lighter than a G21 Gen4 while adding extended length to the slide.  The benefit of having the longer slide of the Glock 41 Gen 4, provides the shooter a longer sight radius for more precise engagements.  When compared side by side, it is a longer-barreled version of the Gen4 Glock 21, but it is a thinner version, and it has been measured down to match the same composition as the tactical/practical 5.3 inch barrel of the G34, 35 and 40 versions.  The barreling is right-handed and octagonal, with a twist length of 15.75 inches, and you’ll get a 13-round magazine. The drawback of the longer slide, does however, not make this pistol ideal for a concealed carry, but will definitely be a fan among the competition, Law Enforcement, and Military community.

How do you think it will compare to the XD and 1911?
