New Glock 48 coming in January?

[Paul_1982]

Anyone else see the rumours that Glock will be releasing a new model in January? If the leaks are true, we might be seeing a single stack version with a 106mm barrel!

That would be nice.

single stack... good for women and dudes with tiny hands I guess,

 

[Trinimon]

Hmmm, single stack Glock? I'd consider getting one...

 

[ianfroese]

So far the leaked info indicates it will be about the same size (read: width) as a Glock 19, except single stack...

It looks like the perfectly sized glock. It might well be my very first Glock too if it comes here soon.

Saying it might come in with a barrel length between the 17 and 19 which would be perfect for the Canadian market.

That would be interesting for sure hope it comes to reality in Canada

I like it

 

[Dick Proenneke]

Interesting.

 

[ianfroese]

If that graphic is correct, then it is a fair amount narrower than a 19. Excellent.

Interesting.

I'm not gonna lie..... That's hot.

 

[mistero]

Interesting!
I wonder if it's going to be well-balanced.

I'm into it. I also like that is a 10 rounder and the more classic lines with out the rail and finger grooves.
Count me in.

Choice of 106mm barrel for the 48 is interesting. Canada legal right away. 10-round mag standard too.

Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t the 48 just the 19x in a different color ?

It's a single stack so the grip will be way more comfortable for small/average hands. Like the grip on a 43 but longer. Sounds perfect, I want one!

It's a "single" stack, but the grip width seems to be only 4mm thinner than Glock 19 Gen4 (28mm vs. 32mm), though Gen5 is 34mm in grip width (still 32mm in width if not counting the flared magwell). G48 slide width is only 3.5mm thinner (22mm vs. 25.5mm) compared to both G19 Gen4 and Gen5.

Lighter than the 19. And a few mm can make a noticable differences in some people. It is a niche gun. I have to trial it but it has my attention.

Those differences are actually substantial particularly over the circumference of the grip
