Default Breaking: New Glock Revealed.

I would love to see a .380 or single stack 9 from Glock.

Thoughts?

Its still plastic, and not all that small plus not in a 9. No thanks, a P239 or 939 fits my pocket much better!

I got a chance to handle, but not shoot, one today. Tell you what, I like it. I may have to add one to my collection.

I have a friend that just won one. Gun shop got one in and so many people wanted it he raffled it off so he wouldn't make anyone mad. My buddy didn't want it but bought a ticket anyway. $10 Glock, still overpriced.

Ill prob get flamed for saying this....but the manual of arms is the same for the 42,the19 or any other . That would be point one for me. Second....after what ive seen in the light pocket pistol market...i.e. Ruger...and a couple other plastics....i think this 42 wil probably outshoot most if not all. But yes......for me?....if i want a 380in my pocket.....im carrying my colt mustang 2.

Just saying.....

Default The problem for me....

....is that I don't want a .380 in my pocket. I really don't want a gun in my pocket for that matter. It seems there is a matter of diminishing returns as the pocket guns get smaller and the calibers go with it.

I wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of any firearm, but .380 just doesn't seem to be enough to depend on. Neither does 9mm Makarov. If I were to carry a smaller gun, I would want nothing less than 9mm. I'm also not fond of polymer, but I can understand the issue of weight.

I assume the 42 has the same design as the other Glocks rather than the stationary barrel for most other .380s That would be a plus.

How about a Walther PPS in 9mm?
