Well...That Didn't Take Long. New Glock Model Already Outfitted with Full-Auto Switch
Bearing Arms ^ | 11/19/2025 | Tom Knighton

Posted on 11/21/2025 3:46:26 AM PST by Kid Shelleen

Glock discontinued all of its current models and rolled out the Model V. This was supposed to be a design that was more difficult to outfit with an aftermarket full-auto switch.

The move came as pressure mounted on the Austria-based company to change its designs because of this.

They resisted for a bit, got some lawsuits thrown their way, saw their products banned in some states, and finally bent the knee.

Sure, it's just a matter of time before someone figures it out, but the new model is so new and so modified that I'm sure it'll take months, if not years for someone to do...what was that?

They hold it sideways. More likely to shoot up their buddy standing beside them.

More to the point, did Glock really think this was going to solve the “problem”?

The problem for the board at Glock was not that people could convert one of their pistols to full automatic. The problem for Glock was that Democrat politicians in Kalifornia banned Glock handguns, citing that they could be modified.

Glock just gained standing to walk into court and say "See. Someone can convert even supposedly safe pistols to fully automatic. There is nothing risky or flawed in our original design. The ban needs to be removed."

” I think that’s why the M16 went from full auto to a 3 round burst. Anything over three rounds and you will be bird hunting.”

No that’s fudd lore. Anyone who has served with the M4 platform should be able to mag dump at FA the entire mag into am E silhouette at 25 meters. The recoil is a steady push not some mythical jackhammer. The MP5SD would dump a whole mag at 50 meters into a E target it’s suppressed and smooth like butter again it’s a push not a jerking action 700+ rounds per min is simply too fast for individual recoil pulses to matter it’s blends to a steady push back.

Pistol FA is controllable if you have a fore grip for a two handed hold or add a Glock Stock the folding kind to the hole behind the mag well it turns the Glock into a very VER
Effective PDW put on the rail up front a vertical handhold , the folding stock and holographic optics on the slide you now have a 100 meter effective range FA if you switch it that will hold head sized targets at 50 meters , center of mass at 100 and full mag dump at 25-50 into a human sized torso. Of course civys after 1986 cannot modify a Glock to this PDW configuration legally in the USA but in other countries you can and people do often.

Plus this

Turns you ghetto spray and pray into a world class PDW in trained hands it’s a PSO’s dream carry in a shoulder holster under a suit with 33 round mags under the other shoulder and a 20rd in the mag well ready to go. Can confirm 100 meter hits are easy to make. Like I said other countries than the USA get to play with and in my case work with weapons civys don’t get here.

So I guess if we see one of these modified Glocks (probably with an extra long clip) we should turn that person in if possible.

Bro they make real G18s in dirt buildings in Pakistan. Did the commies think first worlders couldn’t undo their cuckold remake of the Glock. Any striker fired weapon with the trigger bar above the slide line can be turned to FA. They added so rails to interfere with the sear and mounting. Literally dremmel that cucksh1t right off and GTGO. You can also get for like $50 force reset triggers for Glocks that let you feather them and mag dump just like a switch but no mods needed it’s a single 3D printed plastic part and a metal reset lever. The alphabet bois said nope nope nope to reset triggers too but the signal is out there Mel.

Seriously if these guys can make real G18s anyone can.

Or you can repeal the National Firearms Act and let Americans own Glock 18s with little hassle

Thank you. The idea that Citizens of these United States should be severely restricted from owning automatic weapons is repugnant to the Constitution.

Repel no the Supreme Court should do their job and strike all the NFAs down as unconstitutional. Shall not be infringed is already written in plain English.

In English...they think if they spray a whole magazine at their sworn enemy then much respect will be bestowed upon them, do you understand the concepts presented here fellow member of my association.

Nice Firefly ref.

I’ve evolved my opinion of Glock since this was their first significant policy move post Gaston. Their engineers must have anticipated this obvious next action but still Glock bent the knee to CA and so encouraged the antis to go after Ruger next.

There’s merit to either approach.

1) Congress could, and should, admit that they screwed up passing unconstitutional bills, and rectify their error ... with massive apologies to We the People.

2) SCOTUS could, and should, tell Congress that they screwed up passing unconstitutional bills. They claim that’s their job, so they should bloody well do it.

Smart electromechanical guns with an infrared sensor and image analysis means could be made that only fire when the gun is correctly pointed at a warm body that has not been shot at in a manner that appears likely to be lethal.

The gun could have image analysis movement suggestion LEDs and the gun would be fired when its movement reaches a point of maximum likely success.

Blunderbusses can be made.

Things can be done that I can’t state publicly.

Agreed, full auto on a pistol is flashy but pointless. Full auto on anything except something like the squad automatic or M2 is just wasting ammo. Spray and pray

Negatory, good buddy.

A 9mm sub-gun in the right hands is deadly accurate.

“In Memphis a guy was caught stealing cars and in possession of a Glock modified with a switch.

The judge and prosecutor determined he didndu nuffin and let him go without handing him over to the Feds for having a full automatic gun.”

About a week later he shot and killed a policeman.

Membabwe....a prime example of a progressive “social justice” paradise. It is a blot on American civilized society. I’m not at all surprised.

“The firing rate is absurdly high, which is common with machine pistols due to their short slide travel....At 1200 rounds per minute, we are looking at 20 rounds per second.”
