This G42 is part of Glock's Slimline series in a micro-size format chambered in .380 ACP. It uses Glock's striker-fired Safe Action system and carries a standard 6+1 capacity. The compact dimensions and light weight are paired with Glock's familiar controls, including a standard left-side magazine release.
U.S. production details are present throughout: the slide is marked 'USA' and the barrel is marked 'GLOCK US.' The barrel hood also bears a pentagonal 'P' proof stamp. The slide, barrel, and frame plate share matching serial numbers, aligning with factory configuration and helping verify originality.
The 3.25-inch steel barrel features hexagonal rifling with a 1:9.84 in right-hand twist (250 mm). A captive dual recoil-spring assembly supports reliable cycling in the micro format. The pistol wears fixed polymer sights with a white dot front and white U-notch rear for a clear, simple sight picture.
External finishes are clean and purposeful: a matte black slide over a black polymer frame with textured grip surfaces. Included are five factory 6-round magazines, the Glock factory hard case, and the owner's manual, providing a complete setup consistent with Glock factory accessories.
