A polymer-framed, steel-slide (primarily) semi-automatic handgun. Contrary to poular belief, a Glock will set off metal detectors, as not only is it 85% metal, but the polymer frame has metal particles imbedded in it. They are known for their reliability, as they have about 30 fewer parts than most other semiautomatic handguns. They're manufactured in 9X19mm, .357 sig (which is a 9mm round crimped in a .40 shell casing), .380, .40 S&W, 10mm auto, .45 ACP. Although generally semiautomatic, the Glock 18 is manufactured for law inforcement and is capable of firing in full-automatic. A Glock has three safties, none are manual. The hammer is concealed within the slide, and is non-user accessable. The hammer is kept at half-cock. Glock handguns are criticized for their angled, ugly looks, occaisonally uncomfortable grips, and needlessly complicated safety mechanisms. The Glock is unable to fire all-lead bullets (it can only fire jacketed rounds) due to it's polygonal rifling, to which lead sticks.

It's the Honda Civic of handguns. It's very basic and nothing to really brag about, but it gets the job done. Stock Glocks are definitely not worth telling your range buddies about. The real show is modifying and upgrading.
If you want a match-grade trigger, you can do a ten-cent trigger job or buy a new trigger. If you want a match-grade barrel, you can buy one for as little as $100. If you want tritium sights, buy them, then it's easy to install. The aftermarket for Glock (especially Gen 3) is so strong that you can buy custom-made frames and tacticool parts.
Glock 19s are one of the most popular concealed carry handguns in the United States. It's basically the benchmark for modern concealed carry handguns.
The Glock 44 (a .22LR) is absolute shit. Don't buy one. They have a tendency to blow up.

"Dis my Glock .40, dis my problem solver."
"My buddy bought a Glock 17, it's so bland."
"At least it's not a Hipoint."
"I just added a match-grade barrel and TruGlo sights to my Glock 26."

1. Bell in German. Therefore a glockenspiel is a bell game.
2. Surname of renowned Austrian industrialist, Gaston Glock.
3. Name of a prominent Austrian plastic and tenifer coated steel manufacturer - Glock GmbH.
4. A modern semiautomatic pistol made by Glock GmbH that combines such desirable features as extremely light weight, phenomenal durability, reliability, firepower and an unsettling ability to inspire crappy African-American hate music.

1. Ich habe eine glock.
2. Glock has just been sued again by some dick who shot off one of his own nuts by accident. Of course, when you do that by pulling the trigger of a loaded gun, it's obviously the manufacturer's fault.
3. I'm taking my GLOCK underwater to do some shark huntin'.

v. to hit or strike with or without a gun
This use of the word was created by a group of Richmond, VA inner city high school students as a replacement of the phrase "pistol whip". Taking the word "glock" of course from the popular hand gun. The usage quickly spread throughout Richmond and became synonymous with hitting someone, generally in the face.

A word used to describe the action a man makes whilst receiving oral sex. If the man thrusts deep into the womans mouth this is described as "glocking" due to the choking noise the woman makes.
