Glock 29 SF – .78

Description

Product Overview

The Glock 29 SF is a subcompact powerhouse, engineered for the shooter who demands maximum ballistic performance in a concealable and reliable package. As part of Glock’s renowned “Short Frame” (SF) series, this pistol features a reduced trigger reach distance, making it an excellent choice for shooters with smaller hands or those seeking a more secure grip on a potent firearm. Chambered in the formidable 10mm Auto caliber, the G29 SF is designed for experienced individuals seeking a premier handgun for personal defense in wilderness environments or as a highly capable everyday carry (EDC) option where its potent round is deemed appropriate. Its primary uses center on defensive scenarios where superior stopping power and compact dimensions are non-negotiable.

Key Features

• Slim Frame (SF) Design: The frame is reconfigured to reduce the trigger distance from the backstrap, providing a more comfortable and controllable grip. This is a critical enhancement for managing the 10mm Auto’s recoil in a subcompact platform.
• Glock Safe Action System: This triple-safety system includes the trigger safety, firing pin safety, and drop safety. It ensures the pistol will only fire when the trigger is deliberately pulled, offering a consistent, secure “safety on” condition when holstered.
• Proven 10mm Auto Chambering: Delivering significant energy and penetration, the 10mm round is respected for its effectiveness. The G29 SF makes this powerful caliber manageable in a package with an overall length of just 6.77 inches.
• Durable Polymer Frame & Tenifer Finish: The high-strength polymer frame keeps the unloaded weight to a mere 24.69 ounces, while the Tenifer surface treatment on all steel components provides exceptional resistance to corrosion, wear, and scratching.
• Subcompact Dimensions with 10-Round Capacity: With a 3.78-inch barrel and a compact profile, the pistol remains highly concealable. It still offers a standard magazine capacity of 10 rounds, balancing firepower with discreet carry.
• Consistent Double-Action Trigger: The pistol utilizes a striker-fired, double-action-only mechanism. Every trigger pull provides the same consistent pull weight and reset, aiding in shot placement and muscle memory development.

Performance & Applications

Backcountry and Wilderness Defense: The GLOCK 29 SF is a premier choice for hikers, hunters, and forestry professionals operating in areas with potential dangerous wildlife. The 10mm Auto cartridge offers the terminal performance often recommended for such threats, and the G29 SF’s compact size makes it less burdensome to carry over long distances compared to full-sized service pistols or revolvers in similar calibers.

Concealed Carry for the Experienced Shooter: For the individual trained in managing potent calibers, the G29 SF represents a top-tier concealed carry option. Its slim frame and 6.77-inch overall length facilitate deep concealment, while its chambering provides a significant level of ballistic performance. Mastery of its recoil impulse through practice is key, making it a tool for dedicated shooters.

Home Defense & Tactical Use: While compact, the pistol’s 10+1 capacity and powerful chambering make it a viable option for home defense, particularly in rural settings. Its simple manual of arms—no external safeties to disengage—and legendary Glock reliability under stress are significant assets in high-pressure situations.
