Gun Descriptions

Glock 20 Gen 3

The GLOCK 20, in 10mm AUTO, provides nothing short of massive firepower especially suited for hunting. The use of GLOCK hi-tech polymer considerably reduces felt recoil. With muzzle energy of 550 ft/lbs, and a magazine capacity of 15 rounds, this 10mm is your reliable companion on every hunt. The G20 also provides a safe and accurate finishing shot, even when hunting big game.

Glock 40 Gen 4

The Glock 40 is a monster of a pistol. At 10mm, it packs enough punch to stop even the biggest of baddies with ease. Many people are turned off by the size of the Glock 40 because it is so large. But, there are many concealed carriers who have made their carry piece a double stack 10mm, simply because they want to pack more punch! A Gen 4 Glock has some additional features that gives it an advantage over its predecessors (Glock 19 vs Glock 17). The frame on the fourth generation glocks feature finger grooves which allows for better grip and comfort when holding onto your weapon during intense situations. Also, each Gen 4 comes standard with Trijicon night sights to allow for accurate shots in low light conditions. One of the most noticeable physical features on a Glock 40 Gen 4 is the accessory rail. This allows for easy attachment of flashlights, laser sights, and other tactical gear as needed during different situations. Ultimately, what bullets you will use to stop your enemy with the Glock 40 depends upon your situation at hand! Unfortunately, the only downside would have to be the weight. The Glock 40 is so large that many people cannot bear to carry it around all day. It does not help that it weighs about 2 pounds with nothing on it! So, if you are somebody who wants a lighter, smaller gun for concealment purposes (and comfort) then this may not be your cup of tea. The Glock 40 Gen 4 is an excellent choice for anybody looking for an extremely reliable and accurate gun with minimal recoil. Many people who use this pistol swear by its performance and power; even though it is overkill at times, most people appreciate any advantage they can get when taking down their target!
