GLOCKS "All-Round Versatile Performers"
The
introduction of the .40 caliber cartridge was a revelation to the law
enforcement and self-defense community. Never before in the history of
small arms has a single cartridge caught on so quickly, and never before has a
series of pistols been so sought after by police agencies and individuals.
The GLOCK 27, often referred to as the "Baby GLOCK," has created a true and practical autopistol alternative to the standard five-shot snub-nose revolver. The GLOCK 27 a highly concealable, personal defense pistol

"Safe Action" System
The GLOCK pistol's Safe Action trigger system offers you several very distinct benefits over conventional trigger systems. First, you can choose from several trigger pulls. Second, the trigger is the one and only operative control. Third, is the smooth and consistent pull you feel every time you squeeze the trigger. It makes training much easier because each and every shot feels exactly the same. It also makes a firearm safe.
Three Safeties
GLOCK pistols have three
independent and automatic safeties. As the trigger is pulled they sequentially
disengage, and as the pistol fires and the trigger returns to its forward
position, they re-engage. The combination of the trigger safety, firing
pin safety and drop safety make the GLOCK the safest pistol on the
market.
Simplicity
GLOCKs have about 50% fewer
components than conventional handguns of these calibers. The GLOCK 17, for example, has only 33 parts. A couple of
pins. No screws. So there are fewer parts to break. And you can break down and
reassemble any GLOCK pistol with one simple
tool. That's all there is to it.
High-Impact Resistant Polymer
The frame on a GLOCK handgun is made out of a synthetic that is actually
stronger than steel, yet 86% lighter. It's virtually indestructible. A GLOCK pistol can withstand temperatures ranging from
-40°C (-40 F) to +70°C (+158 F) and still come out firing.
Tenifer Process
The metal
components on a GLOCK are practically
indestructable. That's because they're finished with a unique surface treatment
called Tenifer that makes those parts virtually as hard as a diamond. It is
even more corrosion resistant than stainless steel.
Accuracy
GLOCK handguns are designed with a grip angle
that's so comfortable, so natural, it complements your instinctive shooting
abilities. This ergonomic design features a superb bore axis and weight
distribution to ensure a controlled shot, even under the most adverse
conditions. Plus, the special polymer frame, of which the grip is an integral
part, results in a much softer recoil than that of conventional guns, which
only adds to your control. The unique GLOCK
barrel features hammer-forged rifling for increased velocity and even greater
accuracy. With a GLOCK's consistent trigger pull
and excellent point ability, there's a very good chance you'll be hitting your
targets for a long, long time.

| Take it from me, a 66 year old former Marine. THE RECOIL OF A 40 IS GREATLY EXAGGERATED. In fact I think the recoil of a 40 is just a little more than a 9mm.... more... | ||||
