General Tips

1. The Glock 45 is a "crossover" model that combines the compact slide of a Glock 19 with the full-size frame of a Glock 17. This configuration provides the shorter barrel and slide length for quicker handling and drawing from a holster, while the full-size grip offers a higher capacity of 17 rounds and a more substantial gripping surface for better control.

2. The Glock 47 is a full-sized pistol that is poised to replace the G17 in some contexts. It features a slide and barrel length identical to the Glock 17 but is built on a frame with the same mounting dimensions as the Glock 19 and 45. This unique design allows for modularity.
