The Glock G45C Gen 5 brings together the full-size G17 frame with the compact G19 slide, producing a crossover platform purpose-built for shooters who demand maximum control without sacrificing concealability. Chambered in 9mm with a 17+1 capacity, this pistol delivers the proven Gen 5 improvements—including the flared magwell, ambidextrous slide stop, and nDLC-finished barrel—in a configuration favored for duty carry, competitive shooting, and serious home defense. The “C” designation indicates a compensated slide, which incorporates ports to help manage muzzle rise during rapid follow-up shots.
