Glock Releases 2 New Optics Ready Pistols

Glock has expanded its 5th Generation of pistols with the addition of two modular optic ready platforms. The Glock 17 Gen5 MOS and 19 Gen5 MOS come optic ready right from the factory and enable users to mount their preferred reflex sights to their pistols.

“The MOS platform offers a convenient way for users to mount reflex sights without costly alterations to an original Glock slide,” said Glock Inc. VP Josh Dorsey.  “The resulting combination of optical sighting and the unparalleled accuracy and reliability of the new generation of Glock pistols set a new standard for this class of pistol.”

These Gen5 models are precision-machined to provide a mounting system for all popular optic sights, Glock says.  With multiple adapter plates, you can quickly and easily mount electronic sights to the rear of the slide. The Gen5 MOS family of pistols also feature front serrations for easier and quicker manipulations. This includes the addition of front serrations on the G34 Gen5 MOS, which was first introduced to the market in January.

The G17 Gen5 MOS and the G19 Gen5 MOS will be available for purchase starting October 5 at participating dealers.
