The Gen5 MOS slide combines Glock’s durable matte-black nDLC finish with front and rear cocking serrations and a factory MOS optic cut. This is the first production run of the Glock 21 to ship exclusively with the MOS system, giving shooters plug-and-play compatibility with popular micro red dots.
Inside the slide sits the Glock Marksman barrel—nDLC-treated steel with hexagonal rifling and a 1:16 RH twist—for improved accuracy and easy maintenance. The clean 5.5-lb Safe Action trigger and three passive safeties maintain Glock’s familiar feel and consistent break.
The polymer frame features a flared mag-well, interchangeable backstrap capability, and full ambidextrous controls. The upgraded red-anodized slide-stop lever and red extended magazine catch provide faster, more intuitive manipulation while retaining the original parts (included) for buyers who prefer the stock configuration.
With its 13+1 capacity, full-size grip, and .45 ACP stopping power, this Gen5 G21 offers a balanced platform for duty, competition, or home defense—enhanced here with user-friendly upgrades and optic-ready versatility straight from Glock’s Smyrna, GA facility.
