@@waholoopesorry74 There are many comparable alternatives with metal sights that are cheaper than Glock (SIG P320 C, SAR9 C, CZ P10-C) so your argument is invalid. And for your argument regarding a “lighter trigger” I believe that is preference, but a trigger doesn’t have to be light for it to be objectively better. Glock stock triggers are infamously mushy and don’t exactly have the cleanest wall, break, or reset. However, the stock trigger does the job and it does it well, in no way does that mean the trigger is bad, Glock just doesn’t have the best stock trigger out there. I carry a Glock so I’m not a Glock hater, don’t get me wrong. I’m just telling you how it is.

You were one of two folks that convinced me to try a Glock. I’ve been a 1911 man for decades. But it was getting a little “heavy” for concealed carry, and limited ammo in my advanced years. My friend, a Glock guru, brought several to my house to try out. I fell in love with a Glock 45. It has a Holosun red dot optic. The grip angle, after years with a 1911 was foreign to my natural grip. And the optic was as well. BUT, after several hundred rounds and thousands of rounds of dry fire, I’m comfortably accurate. YOU SIR, caused many hours of automatic flinching with your continual dry firing!!!! As I’m your senior by several years. I was taught to NEVER dry fire any weapon!! (I still won’t dry fire a rim fire) But after watching you, and with insistence from my “guru”, it has improved my accuracy. I do truly enjoy your videos and never fail to learn. Keep up the great work, Sir!!!

It’s crazy how u can see the bullet before it hits the gong

Hitting the gong with a sidearm just proves how much you really do practice, great job!! My first Glock was the G26, but when they came out with the G30 I was hooked! Nowadays I carry a G30S. I learned how to take a Glock down to it's individual parts, and put it all back together again from a DVD I purchased. I love the Glock pistol! There are many imitators, but the original is still the best! I always put aftermarket parts on mine, (I don't like factory sights) I put XS Sights bigdot tritium nightsights on, & the extended slide release, & the bigger magazine release on mine as well. Just sort of customized to fit my needs.

How nice...you give us a present on your birthday!! Happy Birthday Hickok45!!

One thing I don’t think you mentioned is that, not only can you put a 19/45 slide on the 47, but you can also put the 47 slide on a 19 so you can have a 19 length grip with a 17 length slide, which is something people have been asking from glock for ages

love hickok45 been watchig for years

That’s so cool Hickok bought his first Glock in the 80’s. Not surprised, I just put myself in his shoes at the time

I picked up a 47 because I did not have another 9mm Glock in gen 5. It's been great, no complaints at all.

Hickok45, what can I say? I absolutely love and respect the man. He is a Maverick in shooting, instruction, application and gun history. He does so with such appreciation and reverence and passes on enthusiasm to the listener/learner/follower. Each video is almost an honorary educational opportunity for the listeners to understand what great joy and wonderfulness has been afforded to us all (in the US) under the God given right of the 2nd amendment. The only other thing paramount for a new gun owner/handler is training, common sense and absolute, nonwavering practice of gun safety and recognition. Thank you Hickok45! The US Border Patrol Academy Firearms Department all know your name and watch your videos! I know because I've asked them.

Dude… my advice… don’t leave one in the chamber until you have owned it and used it for a couple years at least. Or maybe never. If you cary…. Cary with a holster that covers the trigger good. These guns are always on go. Don’t shoot yourselves. Always treat it as if it were loaded ready to fire. Never point it at anything ever that you don’t want to destroy. Never point it at a person even if unloaded and the slide locked back. Keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are on target and you are ready to shoot. Always know what is behind your target. Never ever shoot at the horizon or in the air. DON’T POINT THE BAREL AT ANYONE EVER!!!!!! Learn what flagging someone means and don’t ever do it. Not even unloaded. 👍 Congratulations. You now own one of the most dangerous pistols for the owner to own.

Glock "Fanboy" here. The entertainment factor always goes up a few notches when Hickok45 is shooting and discussing Glock firearms. Love the modular nature of the 47 and the ability to create different configurations. I was hoping he would put the 47 slide on the 19 frame to create the 19L (long slide) version.

I own a few Glocks. Gen 4, 5s. I was issued a new Glock 19 gen 3 for 6+ mo 2022-2023. I honestly was not crazy about the gun compared to a 22/17 or my Glock 26 9mm. I might buy my own 47 MOS 9mm but to get a 19 for parts seems unlikely.

This man Hickok is not playing when it comes to making that gong ring.

The first Glock I shot was a G22 when I was in my early 20's. It was my friends Dad's weapon. I knew I had to have one.

Bought one and love it. Currently being milled for a 509T (not a fan of the optic plates).

Goat doing goat stuff.

Hickock45 I can honestly say that I learn how to shoot from watching your videos!

Glocks are the most comfortable for me. Thanks for the video.

I am from Jordan and I love the world of weapons.

hickok45 is a great communicator; i understand every word he says(i am French)

Happy Birthday my friend!!

Hickok needs to be put into the Hall of America if there ever was one.

If you want the optics cut in a type 17. You have to get the Gen 5 mdl. 47. They no longer offer the 17 in a MOS

I have just about all the Glocks (and multiple 17s)... I still bought the 47 when it became available. 😂

It’s fun to learn about the technical differences between guns, but your range looks like the most fun ever!

so, I got the G47 about 2 weeks ago now. It's a 17 with a 19x recoil spring inside. The reason I chose it is I love the 17 but after the Gen 5 is done, they wont make the 17 MOS anymore. I was worried about parts, upgrades etc in the future. The dust cover has a different look than the other Glocks so visually it was awesome. 100rds through it and not a problem at all. The aftermarket for it is awesome cause its the same dimensions as a G17. Just as a reference I had a s&w shield 2.0, then g19x, then G17, then G43x, then the xmacro, then the xfive legion, and I sold it so I can go back to what I love.

That things sounds like a frikkin magnum pistol! 🤩🤩🤩🤩 So glad the model 47 is finally available to the public 🤩🤩🤩🤩

You can see the fricking bullet fly through the air when John zooms into the gong, so cool.

I sure do like that hand loader

I will not buy one at this stage of my life but I like the concept of being able to switch slides.

I think the Glock 47 makes a lot of sense for Glock as a company, because it might eventually mean no need for a separate Glock 17 frame anymore, when the 47 and 45 on the same frame get you both common slide lengths with no compromise on performance. To get the 19, 17, and 45 form factor they can make two frames and two slides (since if you're a weirdo and you want to put a 17-length slide on a 19-sized frame, you can do that with the Glock 47 slide).

You can also put the 47 slide on the 19 frame.

I already had a Glock 19 gen 5. Decided to pick up a Glock 47. Now I have 4 guns for the price of two. I love it. Makes sense if the shit ever hit the fan to have multiple pistols with interchangeable parts, mags, etc…

Some like the modularity between the 47 and 19 in order to make a model that glock doesnt really offer and thats a glock 19L with the 19frame and 47slide

great video, thank you!

YES YOU DO, GOT TO LOVE IT.

i love this man he is such a good perso ngl

You also missed out on the 19L option. The 19 frame with the 47 slide and barrel. A few people like the idea of the shorter frame with the longer barrel for carry. The short frame is easier to conceal and the longer slide is not harder to conceal. So that makes a good case for the 19 and 47 as a pair to swap parts across.

I like the new camera and it’s cadence of the gunfire. Feel Hickok was a little underwhelmed with the 47 but can’t deny it’s another solid offering from Glock even if it’s another same thing. Or is it?…..

Another amazing firearm.

I like the Glock Model 22 .40 because that was the first handgun I ever fired when growing up, it has that special memory with me. However I held the Glock Model 47 and thought it was a pretty nice handgun and given that you can configure it as well with the Glock 19 slide that is pretty neat. I hope to see more police departments adopt these because it could save them money so they don't have to buy the Glock 19 for detectives when they can just issue the Glock 47 and have the 19 slides for detectives who wish to have the more compact slide.

I requested it! Appreciate the review!

when he smokes the pot, that's my favorite. love you hickok

Bonus: you can put a long slide (47) onto the shorter (19) frame😊.

Thanks
