Only made one range trip for function check, 4 magazines each of S&B and MagTech FMJ, slow fired and mag dumped each, and nary a bobble. Seems quite accurate in limited trial of only one 6rd group on paper at 20yds with the S&B where majority of shots were in 1" and all inside 2.5", me with bad eyes and never much practiced with Glock triggers. Just under 1 lb loaded weight, small, but more a big gun feel. Quite a bit less weight and bulk than the G43, zero sting to hand with mag dumps. Nice little pocket pistol for sure, seems the best all-around ever owned in flat, light, good aim, near care free as for rust, easy to control, trigger reach is as if a 1911 with short trigger, unlike most Glocks. Great service from KYGUNCO as always. 11 months ago ** ** ** ** ** ** Justice Johansen Rio Rancho, NM Great little gun, great price as well. 6/10/2020 ** ** ** ** ** ** Daniel Becker, MN I love my Glock 42 I carry it always and never had any issues shooting it except with Fiochi ammo. Its accurate, light trigger in my opinion and reliable. Very concealable fits my hand well. 3/16/2016 ** ** ** ** ** ** Rui Prescott, ARIZONA I just can say that the pistol is absolutely excellent for conceal carry. Very lightweight and reliable. Regarding Kentucky Guns... Awesome service... Very quick and a very good price. If you want to buy a gun, you should check KGC before. 3/10/2016 ** ** ** ** ** ** Bruce Louisville, KY This is one of the best guns I have ever owned. I put an adjustable rear sight and 7+1 clip extension on it and I can shoot a 2.5 inch grouping at 25 feet. I love this gun, its so light you dont even know it is on your side. 1/15/2016 ** ** ** ** ** ** BC Grayson, KY Seen a lot of mixed reviews for this little gun and was worried about the hard to rack slide that I kept hearing about. I had no trouble racking and Im a little guy and my wife only weighs around 120-125 and she had no trouble at all. The Glock does what its ment to its accurate and reliable. We are very pleased. 4/21/2015 ** ** ** ** ** ** Paul louisville, KY The glock wont operate properly at anything less than 90 grains of fppt lbs less 195... guess you know that by now 9/15/2014 ** ** ** ** ** ** Donnie Louisville , KY I did a bunch of researching on this gun before I bought it and their is a lot of mixed reviews on the internet about this gun. So I was skeptical of buying but it was great decision this a awesome shooting gun and carries great light. It might be a little bigger than other compact 380s but the weight makes up for it. The recoil is hardly any almost like shooting a 22lr pistol. I wasnt a big Glock fan but after buying this one I am. 4/25/2014 ** ** ** ** ** ** Roger Wilmington , NC I expected a great pistol. My honest review. I am USMC trained. Very experienced shooter, and love Glock. The 42 has a hard slide to rack by hand. Was not expecting that in a 380. Women will not like that feature. The trigger is stiff and feels like a 7 to 10 lb. pull in such a small pistol. The lady in the video uses a tea cup grip on her off hand.
