If you’ve been anywhere on social media during this afternoon/evening, you’ve probably seen this picture: It’s pretty convincing, although it looks suspiciously similar to a Glock 42. Conveniently I still had all of the images from yesterdays post about the Glock slide opened up on my computer, so I decided to see what I could find by comparing the above picture with some of the images I used yesterday in the other post. First, the …

Here we go again! Today Glock dropped this picture on their Facebook page: As soon as I saw it, I ran to the computer to begin chopping it to pieces with image editing software. Here’s the new slide cropped out of the picture from above, and the same picture of it after I did some Photoshop magic to it to change the colors: My first thought was to line it up with a slide from a …

Thanks to Facebook follower Richard for pointing this out: I must say, I got to feel up a Glock 42 today, and it feels great. Smaller than it looks, and the standard Glock trigger were all familiar with.

Y’all asked if we would release some clips from the podcast episodes in an easily sharable format, so I’ve started dropping some of the better clips into YouTube videos so they are easier to share. Share away! Remington R51 Clip from Episode 63: Glock 41 and 42 Clips from Episode 63:

Maybe the folks at Glock need to refresh themselves on Rule 1 and 2 of gun safety. On the Glock 42, my thoughts are a solid “meh”. I could take it or leave it. It’s a lot bigger than the LCP, and just a hair smaller than the Shield and XDs which both pack an extra round, and they are both in 9mm instead of .380ACP. I was planning on buying one for review no …

I wish you all great 2014! Resolve to shoot more, and spend more time outside… Ok, enough of that, here’s a leaked series of pictures from Guns & Ammo detailing the new Glock 42. The cat is out of the bag, but I still think they are holding information about the 9mm version from us…

Recently I wrote about a couple of pictures that had been posted over on the Boomershooter forum from a magazine of what appears the be the rumored Glock 42. One of the pictures contained some dimensions of the pistol, which is a really big deal for us following this story. Previously I had tried to overlay the outline of the Glock 42 from the ad over a picture of a Glock 26, but it appears …
Read More »Well that’s Disappointing, the Glock 42 is a .380ACP
Someone over at Boomershooter posted a thread with a magazine ad showing the Glock 42 as a .380ACP pocket pistol. Nice job Glock, you’re only about 3 years late to the party. This being said, I’ll probably still buy one. Will you? Anybody have any idea what magazine these ads might have come from? Want to see how the Glock 42 stacks up against other popular concealed carry pistols? Check it out… For more updates …

My picture of the Glock 42 ad overlaid with a picture of a Glock 26 has made its way around the internet and been linked to on a lot of webforums and blogs over the past couple of weeks. I’ve received a lot of feedback from people telling me that when they put their Zippo lighter up against a Glock 26, the lighter is much smaller than it appears in the picture, and that makes …
Read More »It’s Official, the Glock 42 is Coming
Up until today, I hadn’t been able to confirm that the Glock 42 Advertisment to the right was even real, as I couldn’t find anywhere that it had been posted by Glock. I looked on the official Glock website, Glock ID, and the Glock Facebook page, and nowhere could I find it. This evening Jakerson9 over at Carolina Shooters Club mentioned that he received the January 2014 copy of Guns & Ammo, and loand behold, …
