What's the red thing, a fire extinguisher in case of a KaBoom? |

That's the gas cannister -- it's Airsoft! ;) |

RIGHT ON! The Cav Arms Cav-15 is here now, well proven, and uses all USGI parts! And, by God, I think it looks a bit like an AR15, the most proven, longest serving tactical rifle of all time! I cannot imagine Glock out-doing this. And it is American made. (Yes, I have one). |

IMHO Glock should be making AR-15 carbines....
... that use Glock factory mags for all of their different calibers. I.e. produce different lower receivers for the different mag sizes/calibers, with different barreled uppers. I certainly wouldn't mind a 9mm AR-15 style carbine that uses Glock mags or a 45 Auto AR-15 carbine that uses Glock mags. I already have Glock mags and this could prove to have a tactical advantage in Law Enforcement because your buddies are going to have Glocks and Glock mags so you can all interchange mags. I know there's an AR-15 lower that takes Glock mags, but IIRC it's only for 9mm. A 10mm AR-15 carbine would be awesome! Glock is wasting their time and money on a .223 AR-15 carbine if that is what they are doing. |

It's not a "Glock Carbine", but I picked up a Keltec SU16C recently . . . not bad for a car gun. .223, AR magazine fed, 1/2x28 threaded barrel for Flash Suppressor, folds into a small, light package . . . and as is all the rage right now . . . it's Piston Driven :D

the KT always felt flimsy to me. Like i would break it if i dropped it.

I've recently read the tread about the Military Going back to .45 ACP (JCP) and some of the specs have Glock written all over it.
If Glock is going to compete - which they would be nuts not to do - all the R&D is going to go into the new pistol and not a Glock Carbine. The Glock Carbine is now officially dead. You heard it here first. |
|
glock is not gonna redesign the glock for the military. The military can take it as it is or leave it. If it requires the addition of a retarded external safety, they've done that before so no R&D
|
|
I hope you like the taste of crow... |
|
|
smells more like H&K not glock |
|
|
Actually, the spec calls for a mil spec accessory rail - which the HK USP doesn't have. The new model does, but doesn't come in .45 ACP.
I've got my money on S&W. |
|
Damn this thread and everyone who keeps bumping it up... ever wish you never posted into a thread. Every time I see it come back to the top I think someone has real actual news.
|
|
I would like to see Glock pistol-caliber AR-15 carbines, that take Glock high capacity mags.
Glock would of course produce 30+ round mags for 40 S&W, 45 Auto, 45 GAP, 10mm Auto, and 357 SIG. The AR-15 lower would take only Glock mags, and shoot Glock calibers. What you end up with is a highly modular AR-15 system that fires 9mm Luger, 40 S&W, 45 Auto, 45 GAP, 10mm Auto, or 357 SIG depending on barrel configuration. I have always wanted a 9mm/40/45 carbine that wasn't as neutered or retarded looking as the HK USC. |
|
Why don't you just be honest and post: +1 Running up post count. |
|
|
Actually, I was tagging the thread for later. Does that offend you? |

|
No, actually I could not care less. I just find it funny. |

|
That why you commented in the first place? |

These....Glock carbines.
Do you think the mag will go in the grip or infront of the trigger? |
|
Thank you for trying to get this thread back on track. No one knows for sure. Some people believe it will be more of a bullpup design but again, no one knows because no one has ever seen one. |
|
|
I think the carbine will be squared up like the GLOCK pistols are... and the magazines will both go in the grip AND the magwell in front of the trigger guard. The mags in the grip will be backups and not functional from there... there will be a mag release that releases the mag in the grip just like the pistols so switching over to the carbine will be that much easier for GLOCK owners. There would be a separate mag release on the right side of the trigger guard/magwell for the functional mag.
Like I said I think it will be squared up and look like a mix between the Tippmann Carbine (paintball) and the UMP45..... Like all his pistols, they are simple in design, simple to operate and have less clutter... so that is something to consider when imagining the thing. ETA: I also think the grip angle will be different... not a straight grip, but more of a modified GLOCK grip. |
|
So the Glock 22 is a 40 and a Glock 40 is a 22. Fucking great, now everyone will be even more confused
|
|
Hopefully that'll take the wind out of this threads sails for a while. I'm tired of seeing it pop up with no legitmiate news on this Glock Ness Monster Carbine... |
|
|
Maybe the DEA agent had a prototype of the new Glock "fordty"? CFFUTS23 - Thanks for the very informative post! |
|
|
I call Bullshit on all the new products that were mentioned a few posts back. Glock really doesn't offer tours to just anyone. You have to be "Somebody" to get a tour. The poster might be "Somebody", but I still call BS. It sound like someone read all the posts here and at Glock Talk, of ideas that everyone thought would be next or would like to see produced.
I might be wrong, but, my 2 cents worth. GlockSpeed31 |
|
The JCP is looking for 45 Auto, as in ACP, NOT GAP. No one important cares about 45 GAP.
|
|
I'm not going to call BS because I do know that Glock has a new pistol for the JCP but I find it hard to believe that someone from Glock actually monitors this forum. Why would they care what we think or say? |
|
|
Again, the JCP calls for 45 Auto (ACP) and NOT 45 GAP. It's great that Glock may have a submission for the JCP but if they're going to submit only the 45 GAP "Tactical" Model, they already lost the competition because the military is NOT going to start procuring a new cartridge that was made last year just for the Glock and force the other competitors to switch to 45 GAP.
I have heard rumors the Glock 40 (model 40) is going to be a Tactical/Practical 45 ACP pistol, something that a lot of people have been waiting to see. That could be a good JCP offering... but not 45 GAP. When you can find 45 GAP overseas in 3rd world countries, that will be the time when the US/NATO/UN will consider 45 GAP for widespread procurement. |
|
interesting, lots of "I'm not supposed to know, but....";
the "I just got a nasty email from *.glock and am removing my post. I'll let Glock make product announcements in the future." is a nice touch edited for clarity |
|
haha...forward someone the e-mail. I suppose pantherfinder got the e-mail too since he quoted you. |
|
|
Wow, I could smell the bullshit from this thread all the way from the general forum.
|
|
Yet you felt the need to follow your nose here... and click... and read... and type & hit SUBMIT. Interesting. |
|

Talked with a lady in the LE sales side of Glock today and she told me for sure that the carbine is a go and will be revealed at shot 06. She also added that there is not new handguns on the table at all which disappointed me greatly. Oh, well. Hopefully it is as cool as mr glock made it out to be.
|
|
Last I heard the carbine will be .223/5.56x45.
Will it use AR-15 mags or will it use Glock mags? I'm guessing it will be a completely revolutionary/new design, I am intrigued nonetheless. |
|
Some people just have a nose for it I guess. |

|
The lady would not give out more info than just saying there are no new pistols in the works and a carbine will hit at Shot. I put my $.02 in and told her that I hoped it was not a pistol caliber carbine because all the agencies are starting to go with short barreled M4 style Ar rifles and get rid of the pistol caliber carbines. She still would not bite. |

Apologies in Order
I wanted to quickly appologize and set the record straight on my earlier post. Last week a co-worker and I were discussing guns over lunch and he was saving for the new Glock carbine that “is going to be released early next year”. His source was a guy on a web site that had a brother-in-law that worked at Glock….yada…yada…yada and a few minutes later he had taken a $100 bet that I couldn’t start a new ‘Glock Product’ rumor. In order to collect, my information had to be posted in at least three forums in 24 hours. I won the bet and was told that my rumor was posted in six sites within 24 hours, some even had hot links to the post. Most of you correctly called bullshit, but there are a few nuggets of truth. The Glock annual will be published on that date, Glock has submitted for a U.S. patent for a shot counter and the Glock flashlight is now available with a laser. The G22 in .40 vs. G40 in .22 (I liked the irony and the safety like Sig’s Mosquito) and the Glock carbine information is completely false. I have absolutely no idea what Glock’s product line will be next year. Flame away and I'll keep saving for my Glock .223 carbine that I hear is due out early next year! |
|
Well rumor, BS or not, I still want a Glock Carbine. Not in 223, I'm very happy with my Bushmaster.
I want a 9mm that uses G17 and G18 mags. The Keltec looks like shit and I can't imagine it's made to to Glock quality standards. I like the idea of the Beretta Storm and the looks are not bad. But I want mags compatible with my chosen handgun which is a G17. The fact that no 'inside information' has come out either means the Glock is extremely good at keeping secrets or this is just a big fat rumor. |
|
I agree 100% with everything you wrote but I wouldn't mind too much if it could also take G19 mags as well. That said, it sounds more and more like we are both going to be SOL |
