GLOCK 29
|
The GLOCK 29 is a pistol manufactured by GLOCK. It is a large frame ultra-compact GLOCK somewhat bigger than the GLOCK 26 and fires the 10 mm Auto ammunition. Because of the fact that full power 10 mm Norma ammunition is powerful, this ultra-compact pistol is rarely encountered. The GLOCK 29 is mainly being used as a self defense pistol. It has a 10 rounds magazine capacity.
The GLOCK 29 is hard to shoot because of the brutal recoil from the 10mm Auto ammunition in such a small pistol.
It operates and holds the same components as a GLOCK 26 but all parts have been adapted to the 10 mm Auto ammunition.
Like most GLOCK guns, the name is often referred to as a "Glock" and not as "GLOCK". According to GLOCK — the company that manufactures the gun — this is incorrect. GLOCK refers to all its guns with all uppercase letters.
