Glock 42 Features

The Glock 42 is the smallest Glock possible with ultra-compact dimensions and easy-to-shoot characteristics. It features Glock’s Safe Action system which provides a consistent trigger pull from the first to the last round. The three automatic independently operating mechanical safeties are built into the fire control system of the pistol. All three safeties on this 42 Glock disengage sequentially as the trigger is pulled and automatically reengage when the trigger is released. The frame is made of polymer with hardened steel guides. It features an ideal grip angle and low weight.

The slide stop lever and the magazine catch are easily operated with the shooting hand on this Glock 42. The advanced surface treatment of the slide results in optimal hardness by considerably reducing wear and tear and it makes it corrosion resistant, even when operating in saltwater conditions. The matte surface on the 42 Glock minimizes light reflection. The barrel is mechanically locked and cold-hammer forged. The Glock 42 380 also has the same advanced surface treatment as the slide. Its extractor serves as a loaded chamber indicator to comply with the laws of certain states and its position may visually and physically indicate whether there is a cartridge in the chamber of the pistol.

Virtually every feature of the new G42 is designed to make it easy and fun to shoot. With its ultra-compact dimensions, manual slide stop lever, easy takedown and reassembly, front and rear slide serrations, double-action trigger system and smooth trigger pull, the G42 is well-suited for concealed carry.
