GLOCK 23 Gen 2 .40 S&W
Description: Guns Listing ID: 492958 Glock 23 Gen 2 semi auto 40 S&W in very good condition with night sights. Comes with 1 - 13 round mag, original case, and manual. The Glock 23 Gen 2 is a semi-automatic pistol that was part of Glock‚‚s second generation of firearms. It is a compact version of the Glock 22, chambered in .40 S&W, and it became popular for both law enforcement and civilian use due to its reliability, ease of use, and effective stopping power. Here‚‚s an overview of its key features: Key Features of the Glock 23 Gen 2: Caliber: .40 S&W Barrel Length: 4.02 inches Overall Length: 7.28 inches Height: 5.43 inches Width: 1.18 inches Weight: 23.65 ounces (unloaded) Capacity: Typically, the Glock 23 Gen 2 comes with a 13-round magazine (though 15-round mags were also available in some configurations). Frame: Polymer frame (Glock‚‚s signature design for durability and light weight) Finish: It features the Tennifer finish, a corrosion-resistant coating that Glock used in their Gen 2 models, providing extra durability. Sights: Fixed, standard Glock sights (although aftermarket options like night sights were available). Trigger: The trigger mechanism is a Safe Action system, designed for easy operation and to avoid accidental discharges. Action: It operates with a short recoil, locked breech system. Design and Performance: The Gen 2 series of Glock pistols featured a checkered frame for better grip and control, a slight bevel on the magazine well for easier reloading, and a smooth trigger guard. The Glock 23 was designed for concealed carry, and it‚‚s widely regarded as a versatile firearm, being a compact size but still chambered in a substantial caliber like the .40 S&W. Glock‚‚s reputation for reliability means that the Glock 23 Gen 2 is known for functioning in adverse conditions, from extreme temperatures to dirt and moisture. Market and Popularity: The Glock 23 Gen 2 was part of a larger trend where law enforcement agencies switched from revolvers to semi-automatics. It was an effective choice for officers who wanted a more powerful round while maintaining a compact, reliable handgun. It‚‚s also popular for self-defense and as a sidearm for civilians who prefer the .40 S&W round due to its balance between recoil and stopping power. Discontinuation: Glock discontinued the Glock 23 Gen 2 when they transitioned to their Gen 3 models in the late 1990s. The Gen 3 models featured more ergonomic features such as a finger groove design and a rail for mounting accessories like lights or lasers. If you‚‚re considering buying or using one today, many owners still find the Glock 23 Gen 2 to be an excellent, durable firearm, though it may be harder to find new as they are now considered somewhat of a collector‚‚s item.
