The GLOCK G21 Gen5 MOS FDE (PA215S101MOSFDE) is a full-size .45 ACP handgun engineered to deliver uncompromising firepower with modern versatility. Featuring a Flat Dark Earth (FDE) polymer frame, this model combines Glock’s battle-proven design with a tactical color profile and the ability to mount red dot optics straight from the factory.
With a 10+1 capacity and a 4.6″ Glock Marksman Barrel (GMB), the G21 Gen5 MOS is optimized for accuracy, energy delivery, and recoil control. Gen5 features include front slide serrations, no finger grooves, a flared magwell, and an ambidextrous slide stop lever — all wrapped in Glock’s nDLC-coated optic-ready slide.
The MOS (Modular Optic System) cut lets you install your favorite red dot using Glock’s adapter plate system, while the Picatinny-style accessory rail supports light and laser attachments. The G21 Gen5 MOS FDE is ideal for shooters looking for serious stopping power with enhanced customization.
