We want to keep our customers informed about a developing supply situation affecting Glock pistols. Due to a recent shift in Glock’s production strategy — prompted by concerns about certain conversion devices and legal pressure — many existing Glock models are being phased out and a redesigned lineup (commonly referred to in industry coverage as the “V Series” or “Gen V”) is being introduced. This change has tightened retail availability and will affect when new Glock inventory becomes available.
Why this is happening (briefly)
Manufacturers and regulators have been responding to a trend where small conversion devices and some 3D-printed parts have been used illegally to modify certain pistols. That pressure — including lawsuits and new state legislation — has pushed Glock to redesign parts of its commercial lineup to address those concerns. We are intentionally not describing how those devices work; if you’re curious about the policy and legal debate, reputable reporting is linked below.
Current availability at On Target Training
Right now, we have approximately 30–40 Glock pistols in stock. Based on current industry reports and supplier guidance, we expect these units to move quickly and anticipate them to sell out by the end of the month. If you’re interested in a Glock, we recommend stopping by or contacting us ASAP to reserve or check availability.
When will new Glocks be restocked?
Manufacturers appear to be prioritizing law-enforcement and governmental contracts as they transition product lines, which means commercial restocks for dealers will likely occur after police departments and institutional buyers are replenished. The new redesigned models (the reported “V Series”/Gen V) are expected to be distributed after that phased rollout — but exact timing remains uncertain and will vary by region and dealer.
What this means for buyers
- If you want a current-generation Glock: Act quickly — availability is limited and in-store stock moves fast.
- If you’re willing to wait: New redesigned models may become available later, but there may be a lag while agencies and distributors are restocked first.
- Safety & compliance: We will continue to follow all state and federal laws, and we will not facilitate or share any information about illegal modifications or conversion devices.
How we can help
Stop by the shop for an in-person look at what we have, or call us to ask about specific models and to be placed on a notification list for restocks. We can also recommend alternative models that are in ample supply if you’re flexible on brand or platform.
