The Glock is a series of
semi-automatic pistols designed and produced by Glock Ges.m.b.H., located in
Deutsch-Wagram, Austria. The company's founder, engineer Gaston Glock, had no
experience with firearms design or manufacture at the time their first pistol,
the Glock 17, was being prototyped. Glock did however have extensive experience
in advanced synthetic polymers, knowledge of which was instrumental in the
company's design of the first successful line of pistols with a polymer frame.
Despite initial resistance from the market to accept a 'plastic gun' due to
concerns about their durability and reliability, Glock pistols have become the
company's most profitable line of products, commanding 65% of the market share
of handguns for United States law enforcement agencies[2] as well as supplying
numerous national armed forces and security agencies worldwide.
