Owners of the G45 V see the V Series upgrades as a meaningful step over the standard G45. The front serrations and ambidextrous slide release address two common requests from left-handed shooters and those who run press-checks, and the flared magwell speeds reloads noticeably under pressure.

The three included 17-round magazines are a consistent plus in buyer reviews. For a pistol in this category, shipping with three full-capacity magazines rather than two is appreciated. The G45 V platform handles like a full-size Glock in 9mm, which means ergonomics suit people with medium to large hands well and feel blocky to those with smaller hands.

The G45 V draws the same trigger critiques that follow Glock across the board. Experienced owners swap the connector as a first upgrade; those new to the platform find the factory trigger adequate. Reliability is rarely questioned, which is the baseline expectation buyers bring to any Glock.
