The slide is steel with a plastic cover. It's based off of the same patent used for their sims guns.
Ten rounds is for the ban states. It's G19 sized to be used as a training pistol that can utilize existing holsters and magazine pouches.

I was in Wal Mart in Laplace yesterday and a guy was buying everything they had left of the banned stuff. The checkout counter was piled a foot high with ammo.
According to TFBTV, there may be a 15 round mag in the works.
So I can either use one of my blue label purchases and spend $359 or I can save that purchase and spend $359?
Gee...I'm gonna have to think about what choice to make.
I guess they're trying to get a few sold before they offer a lower price. I would think the pricing may be similar to the 42. If my baseless guess is close, there would only be a relatively small savings for waiting.

I wonder if Magpul will be releasing something?

The more I think about this gun, the more I think I need to stock up on .22.
I train heavily on Glocks, and it makes a lot of sense to stick with a platform that I know so well. And since they'll offer a factory threaded barrel, it's making it tempting to go order a .22 can.

The Glock 44 is the same size as the G19 and should fit in G19 holsters. I've heard the insides of the G44 receiver are similar to the insides of the G19. I'm curious to see how close they really are. I'm wondering how close the G44 slide is to fitting on the G19. I think the G44 shows a slide conversion kit could be possible. I hope they look at releasing a full size frame 22lr.
I'm watching another G44 review. It seems the G44 locking block is different than the G19 locking block so no. But the reviewer didn't know if exchanging the locking block in the G19 would allow the G44 slide/barrel to work on the G19 receiver.

In one of the FAQ's I seem to remember reading that while the exterior dimensions are the same as a G19 (allowing it to fit in 19 holsters, etc.), the guts are different and parts will not interchange between the G19 and the G44.
But until we can hold them in our hands, we'll be speculating ...

I believe you but can you cite your source for this information?
Been looking up just this thing and can’t find definitive answers.
I was just told by a dealer (B.R.), they couldn't release any until Monday! Now it was a LE Dealer of Glocks, so......
One email said you could pre-order but PSA said in stock so maybe you buy and they ship it Monday.......
I need another pistol like I need to get a tool box for my dirty, cluttered hunting truck; but I will end up getting one of these eventually.
