Glock 20 Gen 4 Update from Glock

Amsdorf · October 9, 2012, 06:42 PM

I wrote GLOCK USA and asked if the Gen 4 version of the Glock 20 is available yet and received a nice note from Emma.

She said simply that they expect it to be made available to the "general public" in two months.

Now....do I wait for the Gen 4 or spring for the Gen 3???

I can just keep posting pics of my Gen4 G20 if that'll hold you over

The major advantage will be the interchangable backstraps. If a Gen 3 or Gen 3 short frame fits your hand, then go ahead and get one, but if not, then it might be worth waiting for the Gen 4.

Another consideration, I've changed my recoil springs several times for the Glock 20. Right now, I have two guide rods...one for 10mm and another for .40 S&W. Will it be easy to change out the dual guide rod as the single unit?
