Description
Product Overview
The Glock 35 GEN4 is a purpose-built competition pistol designed for the serious shooter who demands precision and control. Chambered in .40 S&W, this model is distinguished by its extended 135mm (5.32-inch) barrel and slide, which work in concert to enhance accuracy, reduce muzzle flip, and improve sight radius. Primarily engineered for practical shooting sports like USPSA and IDPA, the GLOCK 35 GEN4 is a proven platform for competitors seeking a reliable edge. Its design caters to those who require consistent, accurate hit patterns during rapid fire sequences, making it a dominant choice in the competition arena. Beyond the range, its proven performance and caliber also make it a suitable option for certain duty or tactical applications where its specific advantages are required.
Key Features
- Extended Competition Barrel: The 135mm barrel provides a longer sight radius for improved aiming precision and contributes to increased muzzle velocity and enhanced shot-to-shot consistency.
- GEN4 Dual Recoil Spring Assembly: This system effectively dampens felt recoil and reduces muzzle rise, allowing for faster, more controlled follow-up shots—a critical advantage in timed competition stages.
- Modular Back Strap System: Includes multiple back strap inserts (small, medium, large, and beavertail) to customize the grip circumference and feel to fit a wide variety of hand sizes for optimal control.
- Rough Textured Frame (RTF): Features a scientifically engineered, aggressive grip texture on the frame and interchangeable back straps to ensure a secure, non-slip hold in all conditions.
- Ambidextrous Magazine Catch: The reversible magazine release can be configured for right or left-handed shooters, enhancing versatility and user-specific ergonomics.
- Optimized .40 S&W Chambering: The .40 caliber offers a strong balance of power and capacity, and the GLOCK 35’s larger, heavier slide is specifically tuned to manage the cartridge’s recoil impulse efficiently.
Performance & Applications
The GLOCK 35 GEN4 excels in environments where performance under pressure is measured. In USPSA Limited Division competition, the pistol’s inherent accuracy, manageable recoil, and high magazine capacity are directly leveraged. The extended barrel and sight radius allow shooters to engage distant or small targets with confidence, while the GEN4 recoil system helps maintain a flat sight picture for transitions between targets.
For advanced defensive training or tactical courses, the GLOCK 35 serves as an excellent training tool. Its operational controls are identical to standard service pistols, maintaining manual of arms familiarity, while its enhanced shootability allows users to focus on skill development, shot placement, and speed during high-round-count drills. The robust .40 S&W cartridge also ensures training is conducted with a duty-relevant caliber.
About Glock
Glock Ges.m.b.H. revolutionized the firearms industry with the introduction of its “Safe Action” system in the 1980s, establishing a new standard for reliability, simplicity, and durability. Built around a polymer frame and a striker-fired mechanism with three independent safety systems, Glock pistols are renowned for functioning under extreme conditions with minimal maintenance. This reputation is not born from marketing but from decades of documented, global adoption by military, law enforcement, and civilian users who depend on their firearms when it matters most. The GEN4 series represents the culmination of this experience, incorporating direct user feedback into enhancements like the dual recoil spring and modular grip. Choosing a Glock means selecting a platform with an unparalleled track record of proven performance.
