Magazine capacity
The 10 rounds magazine slim 01 has a specific single stack design to reduce its dimensions to a minimum. The orange follower allows the shooter to clearly see if there are any rounds left in the magazine or not. The metal insert is covered by a polymer coating.
Note: some magazines might not be available in all countries due to legal regulations.
Trigger distance
The trigger distance of these slimline pistols is reduced compared to other GLOCK models. The grip angle is equivalent to the larger pistols in the GLOCK lineup.
Safe Action® System
