Glock 42

[OUTLAWZ]

Should've done a single stack 9mm instead.

Won't be able to get one here anyway.

Someone will need to produce the components first.

380 glock that's as big as my kahr k40? Pass. Make it thinner and in 9mm and we will talk.

BTW, I'm not a Glock fan but, I hadn't seen any discussion about this yet. I'd rather have a Sig232.

Not a problem. It can use generic .380 components.

Or just a PPK in .380!

Typical of "buy ads, get editorial"...Most of the articles (see Guns & Ammo Feb) are singing praise and not mentioning the elephant in the room...which is the obvious 380 and lack of a 9mm thing. I will think about getting the 9 version if/ when it comes out. Maybe they are just workin' the bugs out, or getting though an overstock of the crappy ones before the launch of the 43.

im more interested in the 41, long barrel .45!

Yup, especially if they follow up with a 10mm version.

I imagine the Glock 21 Lone Wolf 6" 10mm barrel would fit. Worth a try.

Meh, pointless gun is pointless. Who the heck needs that big of a gun in 380acp? There are so many guns that are the same size or even slightly smaller than the G42 that are chambered in 9mm or 40S&W it really befuddles me that Glock would even bother with this. They could have easily done the exact same gun in 9mm and had a real winner. I'm sure some people will love it, just like some people like the Ruger LC380, but as much as I like Glocks I will stick with my LCP for 380acp for now.

I'm a Glock guy but Glock is late to the party. I wont be in the sell my LCP to buy a glock boat.

I think availability will be tight the first year. There is a real threat that SSE will be gone this time next year. Why go to the expense of the components when you won't move that many and then closed? Don't see it. Love to be wrong.

Price point in the low to mid $400s will mean this gun will fly off the shelves for the next 2 or 3 years. Ill buy one. I am not entirely a fanboy but do respect what a glock is.

[G21Shooter]

It isn't even small. It's huge compared to Kahr.

I'd like to see some comparison photos between the Glock 42, the Kahr P380 and the Ruger LCP.

Bottom line is the 42 has a market to female, older, and inexperienced shooters who can't handle the recoil of the 9mm. Same concept as the Ruger LC38.

Sorta late to the party...

And given its size I would rather carry my Baretta Nano 9mm as a CCW weapon.

I am in the same boat. I have an LCP that I carry, and also own bigger .380's. If they were to come out with a 9mm the same size, I would add it to my collection though.
