I have 3's, 4's & a 5. The trigger on the 5 is the best as delivered, & I'd choose it for that alone; otherwise the G4's are my favorite.

Finger grooves on the grip are fine with me, but I'm just as happy w/o them...............not an issue either way for me.

Gen 3.... The finger grooves happen to fit my hand and I like the stippling on the grip better than the later Gens...

I have had one for a good 15 years...all that was done was change the sights to TruGlo TFOs...

I have a Gen 4 and Gen 5 and am a fan of the finger-groves so the G4 is my favorite for the G19 but I think the most enjoyable Glock to date is my new G48......LOVE that thin frame!

Good feedback folks, appreciate them.

Figured the finger grooves would be a subjective issue.

The triggers I had heard varied. And the recoil spring - is a double on the Gen 4 vs 1-3s right?

Triggers vary on all of them, and all benefit from improvement (on pretty much every handgun, not just Glock). Gen 4 and 5 use dual recoil springs, but are easily swapped out for solid guide rods and single springs if you want, same as previous generations.

The stock gen 5s seem to have slightly better triggers than most gen 4s, but parts to upgrade the trigger are much more common for gen 4 and prior. The gen 5 is a completely different trigger system, so a lot of the common tweaks and tricks for the previous generations don't apply.
