What are the supposed (or known) upgrades/changes from the 3rd Gen. Glocks to 4th. Gen?

"Carry" on!

The rough texture frames (RTF) are already out in the 17 and 22.

According to what I've read on GlockTalk, the 4th generation will have interchangeable backstraps, reversible mag release, and a new recoil spring assembly.

I guess we'll all have to wait on the single stack glock.

Yes, I have already seen the RTF Glock. I think that is the 3.5 Gen... Notice the different serrations on the slide too.

Not sure what else will change. But, I will give a full report when I see it at the SHOT Show in Jan .

I'll look forward to reading that. Thanks!

I'll make one observation on the show...about the only table I passed that there wasn't a finger on a trigger was the assorted jerky for sale table.

The utter lack of trigger discipline was nauseating. It was fun, though...other than that.

Maybe its the camera angle, but the grip looks more 1911 like, thinner with more of a 1911 angle.

Grip angle looks and feels the same to me. G17 and G17 rtf2
