Glock 42 ship dates announced
We just received confirmation from two different distributors that they are now taking back orders for the new Glock 42 in 380 ACP, so we back ordered 20 of them a few minutes ago. They will be shipped to distributors in two weeks, so figure three weeks before FFL's have them in stock.
The one distributor guaranteed me delivery of at least one by end of January, and since the wife wants the first one, sorry guys. Here is the ordering screen from my main distributor:

6+1? That thing is going to sell like mad in the Peoples Republics of New York and Connecticut.
Seems odd, though, that a Gen 4 Glock is only shipping with two magazines - I thought the Gen 4s shipped with three?

I just saw a local dealer post this on facebook also. If I hadn't bought the LCP I did a few months ago I'd be on the way to put my deposit in. Even though better judgement says to never buy version 1.0 of anything

My thoughts too. I been carrying the LCP-380 since it was first released so I'm hesitant to jump to the G42. I'm going to pound some rounds out of it and see how it performs, it's a Glock so I expect perfection. If the wife doesn't want the first one, I'll turn it into a demo gun and use it as my new bedside gun.

It's not being marketed as a Gen 4. When I asked my rep about that, he said it's actually a Gen 3 with some characteristics of a Gen 4.

Now that is just downright odd. A brand new design of Glock that is being marketed as something older than the newest generation?

No offense and I'm a Glock fan, that gun is a real turd. Of all the things they could have done that IMO is the worst. A single stack 9mm would have been a hit, but a .380 is a laugher and so 10 years ago.

Maybe. This comparison chart was helpful for me. I can see where a single stack slim 9mm might have been more intriguing.
