Description

Product Overview

The Glock 45 Gen 6 MOS 9mm represents a refined evolution in one of the most trusted handgun platforms in the world. This model is a “crossover” pistol, meaning it combines a full-size grip frame with a compact slide length. The result is a 9mm handgun with a 4.02-inch barrel and an overall length of 7.44 inches, offering an exceptional balance of shootability, control, and concealability. It is engineered for serious users, including law enforcement professionals, dedicated home defenders, and experienced shooting sports enthusiasts. Its primary uses are reliable duty carry, effective personal and home defense, and high-round-count training sessions where performance under pressure is non-negotiable.

Key Features

• Gen 6 MOS Optic-Ready System: The Modular Optic System (MOS) slide comes precision-milled from the factory to accept a wide array of popular micro red dot sights. This allows for rapid target acquisition and enhanced accuracy without the need for aftermarket slide machining.
• Crossover Frame Design: Features a full-size frame that accommodates a 17-round magazine, providing a full, secure grip for all hand sizes, paired with a compact slide for a quicker, more balanced draw and reduced muzzle weight.
• 4.02″ GLOCK Marksman Barrel (GMB): The Gen 6 barrel features enhanced polygonal rifling and an improved barrel crown for increased accuracy and consistent precision at varying distances.
• 17+1 Round Capacity: Offers standard full-size magazine capacity for greater readiness and reduced reload frequency in training or defensive scenarios, using the proven, reliable Glock magazine design.
• Rough Textured Frame & Interchangeable Backstraps: The polymer frame includes a aggressively textured grip surface and comes with multiple backstraps to customize the grip circumference and feel, ensuring a secure and personalized hold in all conditions.
• Enhanced Dependability: Built to the same rigorous standards as all Glock pistols, it incorporates updated internal components for improved durability and consistent performance, maintaining the simple “Safe Action” system trusted worldwide.

Performance & Applications

This pistol’s design directly informs its optimal applications. The full-size grip on a compact slide creates a versatile tool for several key roles.

For duty or home defense, the configuration is ideal. The full grip allows for maximum control during rapid strings of fire, while the shorter slide makes the firearm less cumbersome when worn for extended periods or when maneuvering in confined spaces. The high 17+1 capacity provides substantial onboard ammunition, and the MOS-ready slide allows for the immediate integration of a red dot sight, a significant advantage in low-light home defense situations.

In a training or competition context, such as in USPSA’s Carry Optics division, the Glock 45 Gen 6 MOS excels. The balanced feel reduces muzzle flip, enabling faster follow-up shots. The ability to mount an optic directly transforms the sighting plane, and the generous magazine capacity meets the demands of most stage requirements. Its rugged polymer frame stands up to thousands of rounds of practice without issue.
