Civantae, length is 7.36 inches, height is 5.04 inches, weight is 23.65 oz (unloaded) and width is 1.26 inches. It is effectively the same size as the Compact Glock 19. Cheers and stay safe!

Civantae, the overall length is 7.36", some vendors are giving the OAL as 6.85", however that is the length of the slide. Have a great day!

This is almost the exact same size as the G19, the lenght is 0.08" shorter but everything else is virtually identical. Good comparison here https://www.handgunhero.com/compare/glock-g19-vs-glock-g23-gen4

Overall length is 7.36 in, height is 5.04 in, and overall width is 1.26 inches. A diagram and more measurements is available on the product page for this model on Glock's website: https://eu.glock.com/en/products/pistols/g23

How many magazines come included with this pistol?

Robert, this Gen 3 Glock comes with (2) 13rd Magazines. Gen 4 and Gen 5 Glock Model 23 include (3) Magazines. Cheers and stay safe!

Does this Glock G23 have a FULLY SUPPORTED CHAMBER and is it safe to fire Federal Premiun Ammunition HST 155 grain

no it does not have a full supported chamber and I would avoid +p ammo in them

Thomas, it does not but it can handle the Federal Premium Ammunition HST 155 grain no issue. I have fired several hundred of +P rounds in my Gen3 and no over pressure signs on the brass. Cheers and stay safe!

I don't understand what a safe action handgun means

The SAFE ACTION® System is a fully automatic safety system consisting of three passive, independently operating, mechanical safeties. ... The trigger safety is designed to prevent the pistol from firing if it's dropped or if the trigger is subjected to any pressure that isn't a direct firing pull. So it's just describing the safety features, it has 3, trigger safety, firing pin safety and drop safety. Hope this helps.

Keith, Safe Action is the actual internal safety features built into Glock Handguns. Avery informative demo/visual video here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2RDitgCaD0

can i use glock 22 mags?

Yes Frank, the G23 will take the higher capacity G22 Magazines just fine.

why is price only 344$?

Frank, being on sale and being a 40S&W caliber had the price low. Since Law Enforcement is switching back primarily to 9mm, 40's are starting to flood the market and the low prices are vendors trying to sell these less popular lower demand 40 caliber pistols.

It was this weeks special. They're sold out now. When items go on sale like this it's best to just jump on it. Buds uses an automatic inventory price update engine that runs every 20mins. Prices are tied directly to stock levels and will change as stock numbers change. As inventory numbers go down, prices go up and vice-versa. Usually when popular items get low in stock.

Hi Frank, It was this weeks special. They're sold out now. When items go on sale like this it's best to just jump on it. Buds uses an automatic inventory price update engine that runs every 20mins.

I have never understood the whole 9mm vs .40 caliber debate. I am wondering why there is so much animosity towards the .40 caliber. In particular the hatred directed towards the G23 compared to the G19. Can someone explain (in detail) to me why so much hatred? The cops where I live carried the G23 .40 cal and G22 .40 cal full size for a long time now before transitioning to the G17 and G19. Is it because the .40 cal has fallen out of favor with police officers?

This is strictly a LE perception created by all the LE trade ins and low prices. I don't mind as you can find LE trade ins at a steal so the more the merrier for me. Perception is a powerful thing, even when unfounded.

The 9mm is easier and less expensive to shoot which is a big consideration when departments are planning their budgets. I shoot more 40S&W but that is because I hate reloading 9mm ammo. The 9mm has less recoil the 40 has a more snappy recoil

The GLOCK 23 combines compact dimensions for both open and concealed carry, with minimum weight, despite its large magazine capacity in .40 caliber. Having survived durability tests and use by U.S. Law Enforcement agencies, the G23 pistol has repeatedly demonstrated its world-class durability and reliability in even the most unfavorable conditions. That's why countless police authorities continue to adopt the GLOCK 23 as their official service pistol.

It's a Glock, what need more to be said. This is my primary duty/carry gun. I have several thousand rounds through it as well as duty ammo. It has AWLAYS ran flawlessly. Definitely would recommend.

Excellent home protection. It’s easy to handle, and I even taught my wife how to use a firearm with it. She now has conceal and carry. Great to do business with this company too.

Bought the Glock 23 a good while back. Have put hundreds of rounds through it of all types. Not one single malfunction. It is of course my everyday carry gun. Wouldn't trust anything else. After all, it is a Glock.

I have not had any problems with this gun and its operation is great, the only thing is that the configuration of the grip is a little uncomfortable for me and being generation 3 you can not change the backstrap. Otherwise a great and reliable gun.

Finally purchased my first new hand gun and I admire the craftsmanship and precision construction of this fine Glock. I want to compliment and thank Buds for a flawless transaction and shipping, kept me inform on progress from the purchase to shipping with accurate shipping tracking, very quick and professional team giving me total satisfaction which in turn will be the first of many more items I will be purchasing. Receiving my gun from my preferred FFL, Louisiana Gun and Reload shop, Mr. Bryan Guillory made the transfer and process quickly conducting himself in a professional manner. All my future orders will definitely be sent to him to process for me, 5 stars to Bud's and staff and 5 stars to Louisiana Gun Shop. Keep up the excellent work and I highly recommend to everyone Bud's is the place to shop. Thank you.

Horrible wanted to like this gun but didn’t. Reliability issues every time I went to the range. I tried different brands of ammo too (none of it cheap either). I’ve owned several different Glocks over the years and never had any reliability issues with one until now.
