Glock 23 Gen5 .40 S&W Blue/Black Pistol

A: It is not a typo. I had to do some googling and reading but it appears that the Gen5 G23 is brand new. And if you google this model number, or upc it comes up as the Gen5 G23. Found an article on ammo land from July and this pistol literaly just came out this month, it is brand new.

This is good news for the many law enforcement agencies currently equipped with the Gen4 version of this caliber pistol." If you plan on getting one I wouldn't wait long they will likely sell out fast

A: Abdullahi, it is not a typo. There is an article "GLOCK Announces Expansion of GEN 5 Pistols in .40 Caliber" , you can read it here-- https://www.ammoland.com/2020/07/glock-announces-expansion-of-gen-5-pistols-in-40-caliber/

A: Abdullahi, the new Gen 5 Glocks in 40S&W have been introduced by Glock for a while now Sir. Cheers and stay safe!

A: Yep, the Gen 5 40 cals were released recently.

A: Leroy, no Sir it is not the MOS version. Cheers and stay safe!

A: Jeremy, not this model. It has a standard slide with front serrations, Front White Dot & Rear White Outline Sights. Cheers and stay safe!

A: No, the "Optics ready" glocks are the MOS versions (modular optics system). The G23MOS is onn stock here https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/127698/glock+pa235s203mos+g23+g5+40+fs+12r

A: Sorry but unfortunately this model is not optics ready. Hope this helps.

A: Dylan, no Sir. This pistol has a flared mag-well but no cut-out, Cheers and stay safe!

A: This has a nDLC finish, the matte black is either a typo or referring to the frame. Yes Austria is wrote on the side. Hope this helps.

A: Thomas, this is correct as it has the nDLC Finish and the PA Model Number will say Made in Austria. The U Model Numbers are the Made in USA models. Cheers and stay safe!

A: Erik, the only difference is the PA Model is made in Austria and the UA model is made in the USA. The price difference is due to the number of each in stock. Higher stock = lower price. Cheers and stay safe!

A: Models starting with a P are made in Austria, ones with a U are made in the USA. So they're absolutely identical other than the country they were manufactured. Hope this helps.

A: Erik, the only difference is the P model was made in Austria, while the U model is made in the USA. They are the same exact gun. Have a great day!
