Glock is an Austrian Handgun manufacturer who developed a pistol design in the 1980's in answer to the Austrian Armies request for a new service pistol. Prior to entering the pistol business, Glock made items using plastics and polymer's They designed a pistol that had a polymer frame and trigger, but still used a steel slide, barrel, springs and magazine (with a polymer sleeve The net result is a pistol that is lite and will hold a high number of rounds in a relatively slim grip. The original Glock Pistol, the Model 17 holds seventeen rounds of 9mm Parabellum in the magazine. The gun is a revolution in weaponry, being it does not have a traditional safety, but rather a safety on the trigger. The trigger safety is designed to save time, especially for law enforcement, and possibly lives. The gun will never fire if, or when, dropped. The Glock is the revolution of weaponry.
