I'll pass. Never been a Glock fan.
I never thought I'd grow up to be a grumpy old man, but I did, and I'm killin' it.

This will make a perfect training companion for my Glock 19!
Plus, it'll fit the same holster!
Win-Win!

Frogman43; Thank you very much for that price verification. I went to my local gun pawn shop yesterday to have them look up a price for one of these Model 44's but they were so busy with Christmas shoppers I never got to inquire. I'll try again today. Thanks again for that definitive price. Hold into the wind VarmintGuy P.S.: That $369.00 figure is a long way from $500.00 by the way isn't it!

Not sure why not threaded from get go and just use the adapter like lost of others are that extends the barrel. Spending extra 150$+ for that sucks. Also curious why 10 rounds?? Plus why not make it MOE from word go for red dots??
Big question. Since it functions like every Glock per the videos I just watched, will it work with standard rimfire suppressors or will it require some type of piston since barrel is not stationary?? I have a dead air mask and that’s the only reason I want one
Despite what I see as flaws( I know it’s one persons opinion so for what it’s worth) I do thing it will be a homerun. Just feel it could have rolled out with more features that would have made it the Best Buy for a semi auto rimfire pistol.

I'll tell you what, if you've never tried the smith and wesson m&p compact 22, you need to.

I'm wondering if the "innerds" will be close enough to the same as other Glocks for a Ghost trigger link to work?
I know, I sure like the Ghost trigger link in my 19.

Glock announced their new model 44 in 22lr today... looks interesting I think I'll have to try one out when they're available... https://plink44.comLooks nice. I'm sure I'll pick one up but will hold out for a MOS version so I can use a red-dot.

Marketing genius, that is for sure.

Cinch: Several of my friends have now heard of this new Glock offering in 22 L.R. and are intent on buying one - along with me! I wonder if Glock is a publicly held company (sells stock in itself)? Hold into the wind VarmintGuy

I wonder if the reduced power of a 22lr would prevent a MOS option?? No big deal because I love my Ruger 22s anyway but I'll still cross my fingers!

Just watched a lengthy review on TFB about it, and that is indeed the case. Said something about their main goal for now was reliability across the board with various 22 ammo manufacturers and loads and that to ensure such, the MOS wasn't there for now. They said that they normally spend 1-year developing a new pistol. Said they spent 3 years on this one to make sure that it had their "Glock reliability" even with 22 ammo. They said that is also why it is initially only offered with a single-stack 10-rd mag. Oh, and the threaded barrel isn't available right now as a different version, you can just order the gun and then also order the extra barrel if you want a threaded one. At least for now.

And, I guess that I wasn't in the initial 500 orders with Bud's to get it for $369, but I just reserved mine for $379 with them.

Glock deserves applause for going the extra mile to ensure reliability. Three times the normal development to be sure their product works, some competitors should feel embarrassed. That's not marketing in as much as a company that goes to that effort & gets proven will have a gun that sells itself. I love shooting 22's but some picky semi-auto pistols sure can take the fun out of things. I wish Glock all the best, if true to their statements, they've earned all the dollars they can make.

Well said, and I agree 100%. Personally, I can't get excited about magazine capacity greater than 10, or the whole suppressor thing. I'm not planning on joining MOSSAD. Paul
