Glock 42 / caliber .380 Auto is a 6-round slim subcompact pistol in .380 caliber designed according to the GLOCK Perfection standard. It is ideal for concealed carry and shooters with smaller hands.
GLOCK listened to demanding shooters who desired the smallest possible pistol and responded with the increasingly popular G42 .380 Auto model with ultra-compact dimensions and easy shooting. The G42 offers all the features GLOCK users know—from the GLOCK SAFE ACTION system with many integrated safety features to the proven reliability and durability of the brand. This Slimline series pistol is smaller and noticeably thinner than standard GLOCK models, making it a good choice for those who want to carry a concealed weapon.
The ergonomic shape with a so-called "beavertail" helps ensure a secure grip on the weapon despite its smaller size. This feature will be especially appreciated by women. The weapon has a built-in three-step Safe Action system, a loaded chamber indicator, and offers the option to move the magazine release to the preferred side. The single-stack magazine with a capacity of 6 rounds is also available with an extended base. The trigger distance is reduced compared to standard models.
