Buy one,you'll like it.

I purchased the prior 22 model for my son. I held this model and I like the feel better. Of course, that is a totally subjective thing. Not that the prior model's feel is bad, the new version has more of a distinguishable grip. I held one just yesterday at a local gun shop. I purchased the prior 22 model for my son.

I'm going to reserve judgement until I see one in person. The picture may be photoshopped, but the ones that I have seen for sale have the "gill" serrations on the slide and an odd texture on the grip.

I just hold a GLOCK 22 yesterday. The feeling is awesome ! Same Glock we love just with some little improvements. As of right now only the Glock 22 has those new features. My guess is that is on a limited release. With the new texture you will not need grips or grip tape. I want to buy a Glock 26 or 27 with this texture, so my search begin ! Is not FAKE !

No 9s or .40s. I'll be honest and say I don't own any of the previous generations, but I thought the grip was an improvement; very tacky. It has a slight sandpaper feel. I don't know what to make of the slide grooves. They don't slip as easily; your finger tends to dig into them, being drawn to the center of the groove. As far as trying to sell one for $900, good luck with that. They were selling for $449. Saw them today in Atlanta in 10MM and .45. No 9s or .40s.

The new 4th Gen is on display at Scottsdale Gun Club available for fondling. I took a look at it earlier today. The stippling feels cheaper and the slide serrations are awkward, but the magazine release is now ambidextrous which is at least ONE improvement to try to balance out the less comfortable grip and lame slide...

There are a lot of QA problems with their gun since 2004. Customer service is horrible from what people at Sigforum and AR15 posted. Glock is the only plastic handgun that I would buy (have G19 and G30) and only the second generation. There no reason why handguns needs finger groves and rails. Of the two the rails on handgun are stupids. It makes the pistol unbalance and harder to draw if you put a flashlight/laser/etc on the pistol. Modular handle is even stupider. People will be whinning about modular handle on plastic frame breaking off in the coming years. If your back strap broke then your entire frame need to replace unlike an AR15 where you could just put a new grip in. If Glock going to do a new grip texture they should copy Magpul MAID. I am very impressed with MAID grip texture. The top pistol shooters in the US use Glock and 1911. http://www.idpa.com/tj.asp?ID=173 US made Sig are going down the drain.
