The GLOCK G22 Gen5 MOS (PA225S203MOS) is the latest evolution of Glock’s trusted .40 S&W duty pistol, now enhanced with the Modular Optic System (MOS) for red dot compatibility. Ideal for law enforcement, home defense, or tactical carry, the G22 Gen5 MOS delivers 15+1 rounds of high-velocity power in a refined, modern platform.
It features a 4.49″ Glock Marksman Barrel (GMB) for improved accuracy, along with front slide serrations, a flared magwell, and the Safe Action® System for consistent trigger performance. Gen5 enhancements include no finger grooves, ambidextrous slide stop levers, and an nDLC-coated slide for durability in harsh conditions.
The optic-ready slide supports Glock MOS adapter plates, enabling easy installation of micro red dot optics. With fixed sights, a Picatinny-style accessory rail, and three included magazines, the G22 Gen5 MOS is a reliable, modular workhorse for any serious shooter.
