Welcome to Firearms of America! Today, I have another Glock 40 caliber pistol review for you guys and this is Glock 23 review!

As usual, let's start with this Glock 23 specs:

So, another good, reliable Glock (typical). Of all the Glock models and calibers, this Glock G23 gen 5 was very familiar to me from the start, because my very first Glock was chambered in 40 S&W (Glock 35 Gen 3) and my current sidearm Glock is a Glock 17 gen 5, which is an identical size, only in 9mm.

Here is the review of my Glock 17 gen 5:

Here is my Glock 35 review:

Also, here is my Glock 22 gen 5 review:

Now some differences between Glock generations are the grip, upgraded guide rod and a few other little details like the magazine. While changes might seem insignificant to some, I think Glock gen 5 is definitely an upgrade to Glock gen 4 and 3, although I do miss the finger groves.

Overall though, you get from this Glock pistol exactly what you expect from a Glock. I think this Glock handgun is a great option for self and home defense, considering the mag capacity.

So, what do you guys think about this Glock G23 review? Let me know in the comments below! Thank you for watching and God bless!
