G19 vs G21 need help!

[anonovic.aleksandar]

I own a G21 full size frame and I'm really liking the thick slide. I was recently watching a youtube video on a G19 and noticed that the slide thickness is similar? (I'm probably wrong as it is a 9mm)

Anyways, the reason for this thread is to ask anyone with a G21 and a G19 and or G17 if you'd be kind enough to post a pic or two comparing the two slides side by side and aiming down the sights?

I know what the actual dimensions are but a picture paints a thousand words.

Also, I looked around online but was never able to find a good photo with said guns....hence this thread. :

Thanks!

I have some pictures of a GLOCK 19 and a GLOCK 21SF. I don't own the 21SF any more, so Ican't take the perfect photo for your purposes, but maybe this will help a bit. In my experience, whether it is width, depth or whatever, the GLOCK 19 feels way smaller than a 21SF. 21SF feels huge to me (why I sold it) and the GLOCK 20 and 21 are even bigger. Some people love them if they have really big hands or like that feel though.

GLOCK 19 on GLOCK 21SF:

GLOCK 19 and GLOCK 21SF:

GLOCK 19s and 23s (same frame):

GLOCK 19 and GLOCK 21SF: Notice how the 21 slide is wider vis-a-vis the Trijicon sights. GLOCK 21 and 21SF use the same slide.

You can also compare the dimensions from the GLOCK site. GLOCK 21 is 2.5mm wider.

That is EXACTLY what I've been looking for! The 21 and 21sf slide thickness is the same. Thanks for your help. My concern was that the 19-17 slide is way smaller than the 21 one. Like ai mentioned in the first post, I know the numbers but I wanted to see the guns themselves.

Cheers!

They aren't even close!

The 21 is huge, and the SF model is only different in the grips.

The 19 is comparable to the 17 in thickness, but slightly shorter.
