GLOCK 26 |
The
GLOCK 26 is a
pistol manufactured by
GLOCK. It is a sub-compact
frame GLOCK based on the
GLOCK 19 and chambered for the
9mm Luger round. It features a small frame, short
barrel and
slide, and small
magazine. It is a very popular
self-defense and carry pistol, owing in part to the popularity of the 9 mm Luger round, of which the GLOCK 26's standard magazine can hold 10.
The Glock 26 is classified by
GLOCK to be a sub-compact pistol for the purpose of concealed carry and sometimes referred to as the "Baby GLOCK". It's double-stack design allows it to carry more 9mm rounds than other single-stack pistols of similar grip length, though it is not limited to the standard 10-round magazine. The GLOCK 26 can also use the magazines from the
GLOCK 17,
18,
19, and
34. This makes it a popular backup for law enforcement officers who carry one of the
GLOCK handguns as their duty pistol.
