The Glock 23 Gen 3 is a compact, striker-fired .40 S&W with Glock’s Safe Action system and short-recoil, tilting-barrel operation. It pairs defensive .40 performance with a controllable, carryable form factor and a 10+1 capacity.
The 4.02 inch steel barrel is cold-hammer-forged with polygonal rifling. This barrel type is known for its durability and consistent internal finish, and the bore on this example is clean and mirror-bright.
Gen 3 frame features include finger grooves and a pebble-textured grip for a steady hold. Controls are classic Gen 3 with a standard, small, non-reversible magazine release. The slide uses rear-only cocking serrations for charging and press checks.
Sight setup is straightforward and durable: fixed polymer sights with a white-dot front and a rear notch. The matte black slide and black polymer frame present a uniform, low-glare finish.
It includes a single-slot accessory rail integral to the Gen 3 frame. This pistol was manufactured in Austria and imported by Glock, Inc., Smyrna, GA, with Austrian proof marks on the barrel hood and the factory import marking. One 10-round magazine is included.
