    The 42 isn’t fat at all actually it’s reallyyyy smal, pocket pistol timing, and the mag is short 6rd with no extension, haven’t shot it yet

      It’s still a standard glock doublestack , so it’ll be fat compared to single stacks like a Seecamp LWS, which is something like 1/4 thinner for the same round (but carries fewer rounds). (Been a while since I compared them, don’t recall actual specs).

      Nothing against it - there’s a logic to the thicker grip Glock uses - it makes it more comfortable for certain people. I like it in general, find their guns more comfortable to run a bunch of rounds through.

      A friend has a Walther in .22, and I’d rather shoot his 40 Glock - the thinner Walther steel grip isn’t as comfortable and you feel the recoil more than in a Glock. Another friend has the same Glock as yours in 9mm. Again it’s comfortable to shoot, just a little wider than other pocket guns.

      Edit: great website for comparing gun specs. https://www.handgunhero.com/compare/lw-seecamp-lws-380-vs-glock-g26

        This isn’t the 26 that is a double stack, this is the Glock 42

          Aren’t most or all of the glock double stacks about the same thickness?
