Frequently Asked Questions

Why is Glock discontinuing most of its firearm models?

Glock is discontinuing most of its models, except for slim-line variants, due to lawsuits filed by 16 states and cities. This move is seen as a business strategy to avoid financial ruin, similar to what happened to Remington.

What are the key changes in the new Glock 'V Series' firearms?

The 'V Series' Glocks will feature a modified sear (cruciform) and backplate. They will also include a 'performance trigger' that requires more frequent cleaning, approximately every 500 rounds, compared to older models.

How do the lawsuits against Glock differ from typical gun regulations?

These lawsuits are funded by taxpayer money, giving state and city attorneys general a significant advantage. This approach is viewed by some as legal bullying, using public funds to target a firearm manufacturer.

What are the implications of Glock's decision for consumers and the firearms market?

The decision has led to a sell-out of existing Glock inventory. Consumers are exploring Glock clones as alternatives, which are not currently facing similar lawsuits and may offer better value. The market may see a shift in consumer preference.

What is the significance of California's machine gun definition in relation to Glock's situation?

California's definition of a machine gun as something 'readily changed' differs from the federal standard of 'retrofitted or restored.' This highlights how state-specific legal interpretations can create unique challenges for firearm manufacturers.
