The GLOCK® G45 Compact Semi-Auto Pistol has many of the features of the new Gen 5 series pistols on a full-size, model 17 frame, with a compact model 19 slide and barrel assembly. The full grip makes it easy to grab the gun from a carry position and enhances shooter control. The shorter slide makes the gun faster to draw with less slide to clear a holster, and the shorter sight radius makes the gun faster to start and stop on target. The slide and main metal parts of the G45 semi-automatic pistol come with an ion-bonded, nDLC coating for increased protection against corrosion and scratching, and improved ability to function in dry conditions with minimal lubrication. The muzzle end of the slide has been beveled for smooth draw and snagless reholstering. Finger grooves, incorporated on earlier GLOCK models, have been eliminated on the G45 frame to enhance speed of getting the shooter's fingers into a correct hold. An ambidextrous slide stop lever and a reversible magazine catch accommodate both right- and left-handed shooters. A Marksman barrel with polygonal rifling provides exceptional accuracy. A Modular Backstrap System (MBS) allows shooters to instantly customize the grip size to individual hand size, or to gloves. Rough textured frame surface (RTF) on the polymer frame provides a sure hold on the pistol when hands are wet or sweaty. An integral accessory rail in front of the trigger guard allows for the attachment of aftermarket tactical accessories. The GLOCK G45 Semi-Auto Pistol features the simplicity and reliability that have made GLOCK pistols a favored sidearm for law enforcement, military, and civilian use all over the world.
