About This Firearm
The Glock 33 Gen4 is a polymer-framed striker-fired .357 SIG built for backup and deep concealment. Glock no longer offers it to the public, so a complete pistol is a used buy. Its flush magazine holds nine rounds in a grip 4.21 inches tall, which is a two-finger hold for most adult hands.
Three magazines came with the pistol, and the Gen4 frame brings interchangeable backstraps and an extended magazine catch that reverses for a left hand. The trigger breaks at 6.3 lbs. The slide has no optic cut. The gun is 6.42 inches long, 1.26 inches wide and weighs 21.87 oz, and a bottlenecked high-pressure cartridge in a pistol that light comes back fast. An extended magazine floorplate restores a full grip without changing the round count.
If you're cross-shopping, the Glock 32 Gen4 is the compact in the same cartridge, 13 rounds behind a 4.02-inch barrel at 24.34 oz, on a grip 5.04 inches tall that takes a whole hand. The Sig Sauer P239 is the single-stack hammer-fired alternative, seven rounds at 29.5 oz behind a 3.6-inch barrel, 1.2 inches wide with a 4.4 lb single-action break. The P239 carries 7.63 oz more, and that weight is most of why the same cartridge is easier to shoot in it.

Strengths & Limitations
- Nine rounds in a pistol this size is more than the single-stack guns in the cartridge manage.
- Three magazines shipped with it, and the Gen4 backstraps and reversible catch came with them.
- Everything on the gun is the same manual of arms as the larger .357 SIG Glocks, so a backup pistol works like the duty one.
- The flush magazine leaves two fingers on the grip, and a floorplate extension is an added purchase.
- No optic cut in the slide, and no factory optic-ready version of this chambering exists.
- A light pistol and a high-pressure cartridge punish practice, and nothing in Glock's .357 SIG line weighs less than this one.
