Every year, non-Glock agencies make the switch, recognizing what so many departments long ago discovered-that Glocks are far and away the best sidearm suited to serious police work. Glocks dominate the law enforcement landscape, but sales have by no means peaked. For the officer who finds him or herself in a life-or-death situation, a dependably functioning firearm is a tool of obvious, inestimable value. When called upon, they work, and work well. Lastly, but hardly least, they’re famously rugged and reliable. Thanks to its Safe Action trigger system, a Glock is both highly safe (never firing if dropped) and, with no external safety to disengage, quick to bring into action. They’re accurate, and they’re high capacity, with all but a few Glock compacts holding 10 or more rounds of 9mm. Featuring (in their Gen4 iterations) interchangeable backstraps, they fit multiple hand sizes, allowing for wide departmental use. It’s not hard to see why: Simply designed, they’re simple to use and relatively easy to master and, with fewer parts, they’re easier and cheaper to maintain. Glocks are by a wide margin the most commonly used sidearm in American law enforcement, filling the holsters of more than 65 percent of the nation’s cops.
