Frequently Asked Questions

Is Glock officially making a carbine?

While Glock has not officially announced a carbine, a patent filing discovered in Germany suggests they are developing one. The ARFCOM News video analyzes these patent details, indicating a potential rifle rather than a pistol-caliber carbine.

What caliber will the rumored Glock carbine be?

Based on the patent drawings analyzed in the video, the rumored Glock carbine is likely chambered for rifle cartridges such as 5.56x45mm or .300 Blackout, not pistol calibers.

What kind of magazine will the Glock carbine use?

The patent details suggest the Glock carbine will utilize STANAG pattern magazines, commonly used with AR-15 style rifles, rather than standard Glock pistol magazines.

What is a mid-stroke gas piston system?

A mid-stroke gas piston system is a type of operating system for semi-automatic firearms where the gas from the fired round pushes a piston, which then actuates the bolt carrier group. 'Mid-stroke' refers to the length of the piston's travel.
