I wonder what's coming to replace those. 🤔

 

Same here, I'm wondering if we're going to release something new tomorrow at the NRA annual meeting? I am excited to see.

 

If this is the list then that sucks.

Some good pistols on that list. Glad I have the ones I want already.

From my personal perspective only I hope they don’t go all modular with the FCU ala Sig. I don’t particularly like that feature.

Yep, glad I got the one I wanted

 

G22 and G27 gen5 are discontinued ?

 

Even though these models are discontinued, the distributors and local stores will probably have some on hand.
Then there's the used market, and police trade ins.

 

I wonder how long they will offer support for those discontinued models

 

As in parts?
Probably a long time I would imagine with CA not have gen5 on their roster.

 

Wow, that's pretty much the whole Glock product line!
Going another direction in near future?

 

That's what I'm thinking.

 

Back to curtain rings.

Oh good, the 25 and 28 isn’t on that list….

 

Glad I got my G41 and 19.3

 

Are they killing off all variants of the 17L and 30?

 

Yes

 

Gen. 5 G27, G29 and G30. THAT surprised me.

 

Surprised at how many Gen5s are on the list.

 

I'm not. Seems like all the hype didn't translate into the sales numbers that Glock was hoping for. YMMV

 

maybe they’re coming out with MOS versions of the G29 and G30

 

Seems like all 40s and 357s minus the 23 Gen3 and 5 are being axed.

 

"Streamlining our portfolio for a stronger future."

 

Well, Gaston owned 99% of the company, and now perhaps the new Chairwomen has a new vision going forward.

Interesting (but unsurprising) that some models are listed as only being sold to LE. Other companies have done something similar when they want to phase out models but enough LE agency customers want to continue using them. (To a point.)

Since the .40/.357/.45/.45GAP aren't exactly major sales for LE/Gov contracts in the current market, it's unsurprising they might be discontinued from the production catalog. The company could always 'bring them back' if any of them suddenly come back into favor for major contracts.

Since Glock appears to be branching out internationally, it's not unexpected that the standard caliber would be ... 9mm. Maybe a little .380ACP.

I noticed the official list of discontinued models only shows Gen4 for the 19/26/23, so perhaps they'll keep them (Gen3) for states like CA? If so, though, too bad the G27 in all vintages is being dropped. Makes me glad I rebuilt mine in recent years.

I can always get by with picking up a Shield 40 2.0, though.

Going to be some interesting times going forward with the new Glock company.

 

A little surprised to see G5 34 MOS on the list... Among others.

 

Thats the one that surprised me the most.

 

 

This might push me off the fence to buy a G29. Might.

 

So the 17L Gen 5 only had a one year production run.

 

I have an extremely rare, no longer in production, Glock 20 Gen 4. This is the finest semi automatic pistol ever produced, and it's a 10 MM.

Start the bidding at $2,500.

 

My local gun store still has 3. They had 4,4 years ago but I bought one.
Nobody around here shoots or carries a 10mm. but me apparently. I know because the 10mm. ammo in the county doesn't move unless I buy it.
They're all about 9mm. or .45.
Poor devils.

 

On the bright side, this corporate decision will probably cede that small market segment of .40 & .45 shooters over to other makers. Granted, they're still a dwindling number of current production .40's & .45's.

Metal frames (M&P 2.0 .40), budget plastic (SD 2.0), a scant number of major American maker plastic .45's, M&P .20 .45, and the venerable metal P220 ... but literally tons of 1911's to be found.

The market is reflecting the major caliber shift from both LE/Gov (continuing Mil) and Private shooting enthusiasts to 9mm. Money talks, and it's been talking 9mm, with a helping of .380ACP.

The 1911 shooters can still scratch their itch.

Me? I've got my 9's, .40's and .45's ... and I've increasingly returned to my revolvers. Not so much .44MAG or .45Colt anymore, but .38SPL & .357MAG are still my go-to choices for working self defense wheelies. Good time for those calibers nowadays, too.

This fuels the "one 9mm Modular Model" Gen 6 rumor

what models are actually gonna be left alive ?

No, they are selling more Gen 5 26/19/45/47 pistols than ever before, and about to release Gen 6. This is a healthy sign, not a bad one.
