CANSOFCOM Adopts Glock 45

In a recently released recruiting video, Canada Special Operations Forces Command spilled the beans on a couple of new capabilities.

While there was no public contract award, this Operator is seen shooting a G45 (which is 9mm not .45). CANSOFCOM transitioned to the C22 pistol based on the SIG P320 along with the rest of the Department of National Defence. However, based upon the fact that it made into this new video, they’ve likely been with the command for some time now.

When we inquired with DND about the new weapon, they provided us with this response:

“CANSOFCOM employs a range of weapon systems to meet a diverse set of mission requirements. We will not comment further on specific equipment details to protect operational security.”

There’s another Easter Egg in the video as well. This RECCE operator’s rifle is equipped with the Millbrook Strategic Sciences Multi Function Muzzle Device. That contract was announced during SHOT Show this year.

Here’s the entire video.
