Gun Descriptions

The GLOCK® 42 Semi-Auto Pistol is a slim, subcompact semi-auto pistol designed specifically for concealed carry. Made with the same materials and quality control as all GLOCK semi-automatic pistols, the G42 is a carry gun you can count on at the moment of truth. Internally, the GLOCK 42 employs the same striker, short-recoil operated, and locked-breech barrel as the larger framed GLOCK pistols, and uses a dual recoil spring assembly as the Gen4 pistols. The Safe-Action trigger system makes shooting in stressed situations infallible. The rough textured polymer grip provides a solid hold, and while quite concealable, it offers shooters enough surface area for ultimate control. The white-dot front sight and the white-bracket rear sight provide rapid acquisition in dim lighting situations. The length, shape, finger rest, and size of the trigger opening are the same as the larger pistols, and the trigger is same size and shape as the smooth-faced triggers used on the Gen4 pistols, making them all familiar to those who already use GLOCK pistols. The GLOCK 42 Semi-Auto Pistol is a reliable, easy to maintain firearm that's perfect for everyday carry. The G42 comes with 2 ultra-reliable single-stack 6-round magazines.

The SIG Sauer P232 is a semi auto pistol built on either an anodized aluminum alloy frame or a stainless steel frame. It’s chambered in .380 ACP. Other features include: The P232 Nitron. The P232 Nitron. Hogue grips not pictured. A fixed-barrel, blow back action; a stainless steel slide with rear serrations; smooth contours and rounded, snag-free edges; Hogue finger-groove rubber grips; and a double-action/single-action trigger. SIG offers the P232 in three models, including the: P232 Nitron, which features a Nitron finish on the slide, a black hard-coat anodized finish on the aluminum alloy frame, and either contrast sights or SIGLITE night sights; P232 Two-Tone, which features a natural stainless finish on the slide, a black hard-coat anodized finish on the aluminum alloy frame and SIG LITE night sights; and P232 Stainless, which features a natural stainless finish on the slide, a natural stainless finish on the stainless steel frame, and SIG LITE night sights.
