    SLIMLINE DEVELOPMENT - developed for concealed carry
                        FEATURES
                    
                    
                Comfortable grip with beavertail
                                        The frame of the slimline models has a built-in beavertail design, which allows the shooter to aquire a high and tight grip. 
                                    
                                Front serrations
                                        Front serrations provide a different look and an additional tactile surface to do a fast press check before and after firing. 
                                    
                                High 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. 
                                    
                                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
                                        Three safeties disengage sequentially as the trigger is pulled and automatically reengage when the trigger is released. 
Same trigger pull for each shot - short trigger reset.

Silver colored nPVD surface refinement
                                        The surface of the GLOCK slide is silver and non reflective. All GLOCK metal parts are subject to a surface treatment making them corrosion and salt water resistant. 
                                    
                                Polymer frame
                                        The durable and lightweight polymer frame absorbs recoil due to the dampening characteristics of the polymer. The slimline RTF was designed to enhance grip traction, without being too aggressive. 
                                    
                                Standard GLOCK polymer sights
                                        The dimensions of the standard GLOCK rear sights were reduced to fit the slim slide. 
                                    
                                GLOCK Marksman barrel
                                        The GLOCK Marksman barrel (GMB) features enhanced barrel rifling based on the proven polygonal barrel design which delivers improved accuracy.
                                    
                                Reversible magazine catch
                                        The magazine catch of the compact slim frame is reversible to switch the catch to the left or right side of the pistol. 
                                    
                                Slide stop lever
                                        A fully functional slide stop lever stops the slide in the rearward position after having fired the last round in the magazine.
                                    
                                Loaded chamber indicator
                                        A visible and palpable indicator is located on the extractor.
