Glock 19

The Glock 19 is a semi-automatic pistol designed and manufactured since 1988 by Glock for military and police forces. This is the equivalent of the Glock 17, in compact version. It is considered one of the best semi-automatic pistols today, due to its robustness, reliability and ease of implementation.
