Brazil caliber limitations

[edit]

Many sources erroneously include Brazil among the countries that don't allow 9x19 Parabellum caliber handguns for civilians because it is a military caliber. This is not the case. Brazil doesn't allow 9x19 because of the power level, rather than because it is a military caliber. As a result, Glock was unable to simply provide 9x21 chambered versions of its 9mm pistols as it did with countries that do not allow civilian use of military calibers (Mexico, France (formerly) and Italy (formerly)). Glock came out with the .380ACP G25 and G28 models to provide the Brazilian market with versions of their 9mm pistols that would be allowable in Brazil. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Terr1959 (talkcontribs) 19:00, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Serbian army pistol

[edit]

Serbian army does not use the Glock pistol but the CZ99, I don't know who put it there and as evidence an random page that describes the Glock 17 pistol is used as a proof, in the text itself it was no where mentioned that Serbian army uses the Glock pistols. It is also not listed in their equipment you can find on internet not even in the Special brigade inventory. Also you can search internet and you will not find a single photo of any serbian soldier holding a Glock pistol. Police specail forces and Gandarmery do use them but they are not part of the army. Also if you insist on puting it there please provide actual proof not some randome page that describes a certain pistol. Thank you 14.03.2017

No mention of the 50 GI glock conversion.

what it says on the tin. I'm not the most knowledgable on specific firearm knowledge, however I believe this variant shoul dat least be fit for an inclusion. If there are objections, let me know. - MountainKemono (talk) 14:40, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

All we need are reliable sources... - Adolphus79 (talk) 20:41, 14 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
hmm. Further research seems to show that while Glock themselves do not sell it (as of 14/02/2023), a quick search reveals it to be made by one GuncrafterIndustries for the G21 and G23. It's also shown me that I should see to creating an article about the company itself, as they have a handful of wikipedia articles. - MountainKemono (talk) 22:20, 14 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Umarex versions Licensed by Glock

[edit]

Would it be worth mentioning that Glock allows Umarex to make Glock pellet guns, paintball guns and airsoft guns? Godhatessonny (talk) 01:37, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Suggested citation (from COI) to replace [original research?]

[edit]

Suggesting here due to potential COI:

Under Glock#First-generation_models, in reference to "pencil barrels", it's tagged as potential original research:

These early Glock 17 "pencil barrel" pistols are considered rare and highly desirable by Glock collectors.[original research?]

A suitable reference for this information can be found here, & the article contains many more factual tidbits about 1st-gen GLOCKs that may be of interest if other editors wish to expand on that section. It outlines the recent sale of a "pencil-barrel" for over $5,500 on GunBroker.com.

Suggested change w/ reference citation:

These early Glock 17 "pencil barrel" pistols are considered rare and highly desirable by Glock collectors.[1] LoVeloDogs (talk) 20:00, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
