Records the most recent generation Glock lists (Gen4 — there is no Gen5 G35); the unlabeled G35 page and the Gen4 MOS page remain separate listings. A non-MOS Gen4 page exists, so this is a base-model record and the MOS exception does not apply. Year introduced comes from Glock's February 2011 release, preserved only as a Web Archive capture, which unveiled the G26, G27 and G35 Gen4 models together at SHOT Show. The directory normalizes the Competition size class as long-slide, following the G34 record.

Verification boundary: Published technical data are rounded, may not reflect manufacturing tolerances, and may change without notice. MSRP is not recorded: most cited product pages do publish a price, but it changes without notice and independently of the specification, so this directory has no field for it and the row stays blank rather than carrying a figure that would silently go stale. Values marked ≈ were converted by this directory from the unit system the source published; the unmarked figure in the same row is the published one.
Evidence tiers backing this record: Manufacturer. Unmarked values come from manufacturer documentation; any value drawn from a lower tier is labeled inline with that tier. Where two sources disagreed, the higher tier was recorded and the disagreement noted.

Common questions

Answered from this record's cited fields only. Where a manufacturer publishes nothing on a subject, the question is not asked rather than answered with a blank.

01What caliber is the Glock G35 Gen 4?

The Glock G35 Gen 4 is chambered in .40 S&W. Ammunition should match the exact chambering marked on the firearm.

02How many rounds does the Glock G35 Gen 4 hold?

Glock lists a 15-round standard magazine for the G35 Gen 4. Glock also lists 10 and 22-round capacities as optional. These are magazine capacities; a round carried in the chamber is not counted here.

03What is the barrel length of the Glock G35 Gen 4?

Glock lists a barrel length of 135 mm / 5.31 in.

04What are the dimensions of the Glock G35 Gen 4?

Glock publishes 222 × 33 × 139 mm / 8.74 × 1.3 × 5.47 in (height: including magazine). Any measurement basis shown is the manufacturer's own qualifier; where none is shown, the manufacturer states none.

05How much does the Glock G35 Gen 4 weigh?

Glock publishes 705 g / 24.87 oz without a magazine; 785 g / 27.69 oz with an empty magazine fitted. These are different measurement conditions and are not interchangeable.

06What size class is the Glock G35 Gen 4?

Glock lists the G35 Gen 4 as Competition. This directory normalizes that to its long-slide frame class, so records from different makers can be grouped; the manufacturer's own wording is kept alongside it.

07Is the Glock G35 Gen 4 striker-fired?

Glock publishes "Safe Action" as its own name for the action and does not classify an ignition type for the G35 Gen 4. This directory records the manufacturer's wording and leaves the ignition field empty rather than inferring a classification the source does not state.

08What is the trigger pull on the Glock G35 Gen 4?

Glock lists 24 N / ≈5.4 lb. A published figure is a specification rather than a measurement of any individual firearm.

09When was the Glock G35 Gen 4 introduced?

2011, per the source cited on this record. Where a manufacturer publishes no dated announcement, this directory records no year rather than estimating one.

10Does the Glock G35 Gen 4 have a warranty?

Glock states: One year from original purchase by the initial consumer; regional terms apply. Terms are as published at the date this record was checked and may vary by region.
