The Glock 25 is a semi-automatic medium-frame pistol chambered in .380 ACP. Glocks have a simple, dependable and easy-to-use design, which is why they’re the preferred handgun for many law enforcement agencies, but the G25 was created specifically for South American civilians who aren’t allowed to carry military-caliber weapons. The .380 ACP isn’t much different from a 9mm except it has a shorter range and less stopping power. Yet, it is a popular round for concealed carry. Otherwise the G25 has standard Glock features such as a polymer grip that’s lightweight making it 1.7 pounds loaded. On the front of the grip are finger grooves and the sides have a rough texture that feels a bit like sandpaper. Its double-action trigger is also “safe-action” meaning the safety is on the trigger rather than the side. The only way a round can fire is if the shooter pulls the trigger because its internal design won’t allow the firing pin to punch forward any other way. This prevents accidental discharges if the pistol is dropped. Glock recommends the Glock 25 for open and concealed carry.
