My old Glock 21 is considerably larger than the 45C.
I, too, was shocked that a full size pistol would be bigger than a compact pistol.
The 45C comes in at very nearly the same dimensions as a Glock 19, including girth.
S&W achieves this girth by using a traditional metal body magazine instead of the thicker walled plastic Glock chose.
" Even compact Glocks in .45 ACP are the same width as my 21." Truth spoken, a Glock 30 and 21 are virtually the same width. Nice feature is that 21 magazines will work in the 30 as well.
ReplyDeleteThe designers of that 45C and Glock appear they copied off of each others paper. Nice pistol.
