I got my Glock 27 almost 10 years ago for my 21st birthday, with very few exceptions it goes with me everytime I leave the house!! Absolutely love that little gun.

Who else is still carrying the G27 3.5 in 2022? Will drop a body like a sack of potatoes from any angle.

I've been carrying a G27 as my everyday carry for years for many of the reasons you mentioned. It's never failed me and very easy to get used to handling. I also really like the larger magazines for backup.

I have carried a Gen 2 G27 for almost twenty years. My agency issued a G23 and the G27 was bought for back up and/or off duty carry. Never a hiccup or a bobble, reliable as sin and damned near as ugly. Easy to forgive any aesthetic shortcoming in exchange for power and reliability. Welcome to the G27 fan club.

Just purchase my 27 today! Can’t wait to take it to the range! This video is what convinced me to pick this Glock. Great video by the way!

5 years after Sootch made this video, it still rings true. 40 cal is a damned good round. My Glock 22, Gen 3 is my favorite pistola amigo. I do own a S&W Shield 9mm, but I prefer Glock over S&W. And, where Glock is concerned, I prefer Gen 3 over any other Gen. This ongoing debate between the 9 and 40 is ridiculous. It's all a matter of personal preference, and of course, shot placement.

I really like your review style. You keep it interesting and simple. Outstanding job. Thank you!

i say always go with a 40 s&w model glock in whatever size you fancy. afterwards if you want a 9mm you can just get a 40-9 barrel and a few new mags and you basically have 2 guns. you can even get a .357 sig barrel and you don't even need different mags

Don’t quote me on this, cause I’m not 100% sure… But I do believe the 26 and 27 are same exact gun, just different caliber. All the measurements and dimensions are the same, so you can take a 27 and make it a 9mm just by changing out the barrel. But like I say…I’m not positive about that…So DO check with the manufacturer first before doing anything stupid! 😂

I'm late but great video. Loved the sight camera and the "to be expected" comment on extended mags. Great work!!

Great video, as usual. I have the G19, 23, and 27. The G27 (gen 2) was my first Glock purchase, and CCW. I did start using the G23 mags (with spacer) in the 27. I love them all, however typically carry the 23, due to number of rounds and stopping power.

Great review! Best work I've seen. Thx you much

Nice review and great camera/editing work! Thanks

Happy Birthday and thank you so much for your review!

Great informative video. The visual comparisons where great. It really gives a novice like myself the information that I need to make the right decision. Nice work.

Purchased mine new in 1997. Upgraded later with the LAW-17 internal laser system, diode mounted on the face of trigger guard, trijicon and other night sights (over time), and the Apex trigger kit = best upgrade ever. It has NEVER let me down after thousands of rounds. If someone can't handle the difference in the 26 & 27, you might as well just get a .380. The added benefits in slightly more muzzle flip is wort it. I can mag dump either of the two in pretty much the same time, and in the same groupings.

I've had one of these for a few years now, also got the 9mm conversion barrel for it. Great, reliable handgun and perfect for concealed carry. Haven't had any issues with it and I honestly love it!

I own different brands of firearms. But for shear simplicity, reliability, and price, you cannot beat a Glock. I've purchased multiple over the years, and all have held up extremely well. My current, yet growing collection consists of the following: 17, 19, 20, 22, 23, 26, 27, 29SF, 30SF, 36, and .22 conversion. Living in, and purchased from CA, they are all Gen 3's.

This gun shoots sub-sonic loads with no problem. Helps with the recoil if that's an issue. Big fan of the spring over the spring. It just seems to function better than the old style.

We carried the 27 for years. this weapon is a work horse. We put lots of rounds through these and they just keep shooting good video my friend

Sootch you’re my hero. I love your content.

I was going to trade my 27 for a 23 but couldnt let it go so I just got a 23. I like the way the 23 and 19 feel in my hand. The 26 and 27 are also great with the extended 1 rnd mag.

I love hearing unbiased information based on real life experience. I am a 2nd Amendment enthusiast, and Glock is what our local rural sheriffs carry, as well as a majority of law enforcement officers , as I understand it. Not that we have any guns, due to a boating accident, but our NRA instructor suggested the brand due to dependability, kind of like the Honda of the gun world. Thank you! Hope ya’ll still with us!

Happy [late] Birthday. Thanks for the reviews.

Just recently took some round files to a G27. A trigger guard undercut makes it much more ergonomic and comfortable as does Pearce PG-2733 pinky extensions with the top lip shaved off to stop pinching. Also, a threaded G23 barrel gives 100 more fps to Underwood 200gr Hard Cast. All that, plus a 9/16-24 compensator gives faster follow-up shots against lions, and tigers, and bears, oh my! Woods carry ready!

sootch +1 for reminding us folks about the safety check of a firearm… always

I love mine, thanks for your review scootch00. I basically have a G26 with my Lone Wolf drop in bbl. I will say that if anyone else has been thinking of getting one, keep in mine that it may very well need some fitting. Mine did and after smoothing out and slightly removing microns of material off here and there, my 9mm lone wolf bbl runs perfectly without a single hiccup. But i definitely will need some fitting.

Don't forget that you can use an aftermarket g33 (357 sig) barrel in it with the corresponding mags also. Been carrying my 27 for 4 years, every day and put about 400 rounds a month thru it between 40s&w and 9mm. I'm hard pressed to find a more modular, more versatile edc gun at any price. Especially for the size and weight. All around performer that I have no reservations trusting my life on!

Happy Birthday! Excellent video.

Happy belated, and many returns! I don't have a .40 yet, oddly enough. I keep accumulating brass for it, and I have a "this full" line that will prompt the purchase of dies, projectiles, and of course... a gun. Almost certainly a Glock. Thanks for another great vid!

First: Happy Birthday ! Must've been a happy day when somebody thought enough about you to give you that for a gift.! Nice video, informative and with 'range time' to show your points, I like that. Thanks.

Happy belated Birthday Sootch! Love the channel

G23 & G27 + 2/15 rounders... Every time I leave the house, (one on body & one off body carry), depends on what l'm wearing...🖤😎

Great gun, I'd love to have one. Awesome vid, bud!

Love my Glock 27 for all of the reasons that you hit on. Also love seeing "USA" on the slide as it is made in Georgia.

I have been carrying the G27 Gen 3 for about 3 years now with the +2 mag extension and the 15 round back up mag. I smoothed the trigger and find that it's very shoot-able with the original disconnect (3lb felt to light). I picked up a G22 Gen 4 not long ago (500 rounds), so far so good and the trigger feels much better right out the box than my 27 did. As others have said get the after market conversation barrel and mags and you have a 9mm for about $150-200 more.

Surprised you did not mention that the Glock 27 is a jack of all trades hand gun with the vast amount of aftermarket barrel conversion kits that are available. You can feasibly run 9mm , 357 sig, 22lr and of course 40 cal. with the glock 27. Always enjoy your videos, keep up the good work!!

The G27 magazine is a marvel of physics. It looks significantly smaller than the standard G22 mag. It is the exact same height as a P365 9mm mag, with slightly more girth. The Sig is my Summer carry, but with more clothing options, I'll take a .40 any day of the week.

I carry the Glock 27 Gen 3 in a High Ride Custom Made Holster by Rusty Sherrick for my 27, the bottom of the holster rides even with the bottom edge of my gun belt and it stays totally out of sight, and its made from Horse Hide which is thinner than Cow Hide, been carrying it for 5 years now and its still like new, damn nice work Rusty. I have also put my Glock 23 Gen 4 barrel in my Glock 27 for that extra FPS and a little more punch from the 180gr Gold Dots and It all functions great together....Sweet Little Package.

I bought my wife a Glock 27 for our first anniversary. Still have it and carry it 13 years later. Great little pocket rocket. Packs a wallop

I love my little 'pocket cannon'... Gen 3 G27! It is my EDC. It definitely is a bit snappy and has a bit of a twist to it with the recoil but I have no problems with it at all. Great review as always Sootch, thanks man. Stay safe God Bless ✌️🇺🇲

Comprehensive review. Excellent!

Thanks for the great info. Compared the gen 3 and gen 4, but went with gen 4, because of the comfort. I have small hands, so gen 4 with no back strap fits my hand better. Costs more, but don't skimp on your everyday concealed carry.

happy birthday Sootch I love your videos. Just bought a model 27 myself as my home defense weapon. one can always turn a model 27 into a 9mm with a lone wolf or other drop in barrel and the appropriate magazines

I bought the magazine extender. Helped tremendously with control, plus added an additional round.

Really quality review, thanks for the help

Happy birthday, looks like you got yourself a new carry pistol, with hell of a lot more stopping power.

I have no problems with my G26 gen 3.Fantastic running firearm.Shot the Gen 27 and it handled just fine as well.I just prefer the 9mm overall.

When I got my CA CCW around 2012, there was a huge shortage of CA approved sub-compacts. I bought my 27 pretty much because it was the only thing I could find in stock and had to have a serial number for my pending permit. I fell in love with it and even after adding my Shields 40, I still prefer the Glock in every respect.

I hear what he's saying as far as sticking to the Gen 3s. I was the same way until I came across a G29 in a Gen 4 and the price was too good to pass up. No problems with it so far, thinking they've probably got the bugs worked out by now.

The *only* problem i have with the Glock 27 Gen 4, is that i carry it in an IWB holster. The sandpaper like texture of the grip scrapes my side somewhat. It is not bad enough for me not to carry it, but it is an annoyance. The Gen 3 is smoother, without sacrificing too much grip. The plus side to the Gen 4 though, is that i installed the beaver tail backstrap, and that really helps with the snapyness of the .40 cal round, and prevents slide bite on my big hands.

The trigger on a gen3 is also different from a gen4. It has an extra slot so the slide release fits tighter. If you use an extended slide release on a gen3, you'll notice some lateral movement. With the gen4 trigger they eliminated that.

Nice vid, great production.

Just bought a Cross Breed Supertuck. Wow! It makes concealing a wonderful thing.

Funny how I can watch sootch's videos more than once lol

great review ! u know your stuff ! loving the 4th gen 27 ! handle grip seems a tad longer then the 3rd gen ?

Happy birthday sootch!! I don't own a Glock but I rented one at the range a few years ago. I think is was a glock19 it was 9mm. Anyways, that pistol felt perfect in my hands while shooting it. The grip angle, width weight you name it.. but.... because of how I am and how I roll I just can't get past the gun not having a safety and hammer, decocker and da/sa . I might get one, one day just because but I enjoy the trigger of a da/sa hammer pistol

hey don, love your videos and have for about 4 years now. you make some of the best gun reviews on youtube. However there is a ton of information on the glock 27. Could you do some reviews on guns that are new and dont have much about them on the internet? perhaps the remington r51, or glock 41. thanks again for the videos keep on doin your thing!

You are wise to favor the Gen. 3's over the Gen. 4's. And yes, with todays 9mm defense loads, it's usually the best choice for CC. The Buffalo Bore loads that I carry in 9mm have the potential to deliver more energy than a lot of standard .45 acp loads.

You have awesome recoil control and re-acquisition. At the range, this was leaping out of my hand compared to other 40s. Call me a newb but I'd appreciate if you did a tutorial on your specific technique.

I shot the gen4 g26 a couple of weeks ago and immediately put a couple of single stacks up for sale to fund one. I want a 40, but the g26 i shot was amazing. I'm done experimenting with other guns.

Been carrying the G27 for a while now and prefer it over my Shield 9mm and even my Glock19! Will see how it feels once it turns warmer.
