== Pistols ==

Glock's line of pistols were first developed in the early 1980s to replace the Walther P38 service pistol in the Austrian army. Since then, the Glock 17 and its variants have become quite popular as military and law enforcement firearms, being exported in more than 50 countries. Glock pistols are chambered for all major pistol cartridges, including the 9x17mm Short, 9x19mm Luger, .357SIG, .40SW, [[10mm Auto|10mm auto]], .45ACP and the .45 GAP.<ref>http://world.guns.ru/handguns/hg15-e.htm</ref> Glock pistols have a unique safe action mechanism and, unlike most handguns, do not have any external safety on/off lever. No external safety lever means that there is no risk of the shooter either forgetting or not realizing that the safety is on in an emergency situation. The Glock handguns are prevented from being fired accidentally by the user by a triple safety system, dubbed the safe action trigger by Glock.  The safe action mechanism includes  a drop safety which prevents the handgun from firing if dropped. <ref>http://www.glock.com/english/pistols_adv04.htm</ref>
