    I don’t like how fat they are because of the double stack glock uses.

    Fun little shooter though, at least 380 shouldn’t have too much kick for that small grip.

    I’ve shot one at a range in 9mm. Not awful, but wouldn’t want to run too many rounds through it.

      The 42 isn’t fat at all actually it’s reallyyyy smal, pocket pistol timing, and the mag is short 6rd with no extension, haven’t shot it yet

        It’s still a standard glock doublestack , so it’ll be fat compared to single stacks like a Seecamp LWS, which is something like 1/4 thinner for the same round (but carries fewer rounds). (Been a while since I compared them, don’t recall actual specs).

        Nothing against it - there’s a logic to the thicker grip Glock uses - it makes it more comfortable for certain people. I like it in general, find their guns more comfortable to run a bunch of rounds through.

        A friend has a Walther in .22, and I’d rather shoot his 40 Glock - the thinner Walther steel grip isn’t as comfortable and you feel the recoil more than in a Glock. Another friend has the same Glock as yours in 9mm. Again it’s comfortable to shoot, just a little wider than other pocket guns.

        Edit: great website for comparing gun specs. https://www.handgunhero.com/compare/lw-seecamp-lws-380-vs-glock-g26

          This isn’t the 26 that is a double stack, this is the Glock 42

            Aren’t most or all of the glock double stacks about the same thickness?
