Description
Product Overview
The Glock 39 is a subcompact pistol chambered in .45 G.A.P. (Glock Automatic Pistol), engineered to deliver the formidable stopping power of a .45-caliber round in a package designed for discreet carry. This handgun is built for the responsible civilian seeking a reliable, everyday-carry (EDC) firearm that offers a balance of potent performance and concealability. It is particularly suited for individuals with experience handling compact firearms who prioritize power in a minimal footprint. The GLOCK 39’s primary use is personal defense, excelling in scenarios where concealment is paramount without sacrificing terminal performance.
Key Features
- Subcompact .45 G.A.P. Platform: The GLOCK 39 utilizes the .45 G.A.P. cartridge, which is engineered to produce ballistic performance comparable to standard .45 ACP in a shorter, more compact case. This allows for a significantly smaller grip frame and overall pistol size than traditional .45 ACP pistols, making it uniquely concealable for its caliber.
- Optimized Concealment Design: With a barrel length and slide width tailored for the subcompact category, the G39 minimizes printing under clothing. Its reduced height and length make it an ideal choice for inside-the-waistband (IWB) holster carry.
- Glock Safe Action System: Features the consistent, safe trigger pull Glock is renowned for. The system employs three independent safeties that automatically disengage as the trigger is pulled and re-engage when released, providing a built-in layer of safety without manual deactivation.
- Durable Polymer Frame: The rugged polymer frame reduces overall weight for all-day carry comfort while maintaining structural integrity. The frame’s texture provides a secure grip, essential for managing the .45 G.A.P.’s recoil in a small platform.
- Tenifer-Treated Steel Slide: The slide undergoes Glock’s proprietary Tenifer treatment, creating an exceptionally hard, corrosion-resistant surface that stands up to moisture and wear, ensuring long-term reliability.
- Standard 6-Round Magazine Capacity: Comes with a flush-fit 6-round magazine, balancing a slim profile with adequate capacity for its intended defensive role. Extended magazines may be available for range use or alternate carry options.
Performance & Applications
The GLOCK 39 is engineered for specific, practical applications where its combination of power and size is a decisive advantage.
Everyday Concealed Carry: For the individual who requires deep concealment due to attire, profession, or lifestyle but will not compromise on caliber choice, the G39 is a purpose-built tool. Its dimensions allow it to disappear under a light t-shirt or jacket, yet it provides the authoritative performance of a .45-diameter projectile, making it a serious consideration for the informed carrier.
Backup or Off-Duty Firearm: Its reliability and potent chambering make the GLOCK 39 a respected choice as a backup gun (BUG) for law enforcement or security professionals, or as a primary off-duty carry weapon. The familiar Glock operation and controls allow for seamless transition from a service weapon.
Home Defense in Compact Spaces: While subcompacts are primarily carry guns, the G39’s manageable recoil and potent cartridge also make it a viable option for home defense, particularly in smaller living quarters where maneuverability is key and over-penetration concerns are mitigated by proper ammunition selection.
