    How can we park a loaded Glock...?

    The civilian Glock owner doesn't wear a holster all the time like a policeman on duty. Still, the civilian may need to pick up his stock-trigger Glock and go straight into action -- then find himself on his feet needing both hands free, maybe to use the phone, fish out his keys, pick up the baby, open a window, whatever. It's easy to see how the need for such actions can happen, with no good place to lay the gun down.

    We are always warned that we must never put a Glock in our pocket or waistband. So how do we park a loaded Glock while we need both hands free, with no holster, under fast emergency conditions?

      I think you should fore go the next gun purchase and buy some training.
      I move slow but I make up for it by shooting poorly.

      When I hit the lotto I'm only shooting factory.

        I must have built too many AKs. I read the thread title and thought this guy was trying to Parkerize a Glock slide, while loaded.

        No, I'm not still drunk from New Years.

          An idea....

          Lock the slide back, then put the "slide opened" gun in your pocket, or waistband etc.... (if you are worry about AD)

            Approved CCW permit.

            Paddle holster.

            Subcompact Glock that will fit in your back pocket.

              If that's what you are worried about get a fannie pack that will hold your gun, spare mags, flashlight, spare keys to car/house, folding knife. It is so convenient because all you have to do is grab it and go. If you sleep in your birthday suit it will give you a strap to clip your cell phone and may even provide you some cover for the jewels.

                WTF are you talking about?

                If you are wearing a gun, it is in a HOLSTER, PERIOD.

                Anything else is UNSAFE.

                Go get training before you touch your gun again and shoot somebody.

                    If you're going into "Action" at no time should you be placing a loaded weapon down to do something else.

                    If you cant pick up a phone, open a window, fish out keys or pick up a baby with one hand, then don't go into "Action" at all.

                    The only time the weapon goes back into the holster is when the threat is gone.

                          Duty Belt? Make a civilian duty belt with holster, cell phone, light and what ever else you think you will need. Keep it by the bed and snap it on and go explore. If a 7.5 quake hits in the middle of the night you want to have it all in one place. Headlamp and gloves might help as well.

                            Same here

                            Anywho:
                            I would say that thought should of accured before you purchased a Glock or any weapon, especially one with no external safety.
                            suggestions:
                            Sell the Glock for something with an external safety.
                            Install a Cominolli safety on the Glock
                            Above all Train and consider as many sanerios as possible.

                              I say you buy one of these used pistol belts and a holster. Also get holders for what ever else you need. Keep the thing next to your nightstand and you good to go for your baby saving/key finding adventure.
