TLP 229 Unveiling Of The New Glock 19x

Happy New Year Lead Heads! Welcome to the first episode of the Talking Lead Show of the new year, 2018, and it’s a doozy!

Lefty travels down to the Glock facility in Smyrna Georgia for the big reveal of Glock’s commercial release of their Army MHS XM19 submission the G19x! A hybrid between Glock’s G17 & G19 9mm pistols and most of the features that the recently released Generation 5 Glocks offer. And speaking of the Gen 5’s they also are releasing the G26 & G34! Lefty talks with Josh Dorsey, Vice President of GLOCK Inc, about their new releases.

After getting some range time with the G19x, Lefty comes together with a few other media people to discuss the experience. Don Porter (aka Sootch00), Andre Dall’au (Big 3 East Media) and Sean Curtis (Police One & Gun World) give their thoughts on the G19x and the two new Generation 5 offerings. Of course it wouldn’t be the Talking Lead show unless we get off topic, this episode it’s Daisy Duke!

Wrapping up the trip to Glock Lefty is joined by Willie Parent (Director of Training & GSSG) , Chris Edwards (GSSF Match Coordinator/ Range Master) & Shane Coley (Team Glock Captain).

Willie and Chris talk about the recent “Gunny Challenge” in Talladega which had another Duke’s of hazard special guest, John Schneider, best known for his role as Beauregard “Bo” Duke in The Dukes of Hazzard.! Great story about how John Schneider used his bow and arrow on a steel target. Shane talks about his role as Team Glock Captain & some of his 2017 match experiences. Next we get everyone’s take on the new Glock G19x and Willie tells us what a “biscuit shovel” is …?
