I am somewhat fan of a Glock and own five. Looking for a new gun for the wife to carry due to its reliabilty and simplicity.

Right now she carries one of my .40 baby glocks when she packs. They have some recoil, looking to tone it down for her.

I know there are other handguns that would fill the need but curious about the Glock 42

How does she carry her gun? On her hip or pocket, or in her purse. If in her purse, wouldnt you want a bigger gun that's easier to locate without looking? And the recoil on those Glock 27's are pretty horrible. I wouldnt want my gf handling one of those. Full-size 9mm would be a better option if at all possible.

It shoots fine. Just wait until next year when the Glock 43 comes out, 9mm

A single stack subcompact 9 is probably going to have nearly the same recoil.

Turn that 42 into a 9MM then you got something.

Just get a 9mm. A big 380 is pointless.

I went to Glock Armorers school two weeks ago and they had a 42. I didn't get to fire it for obvious reasons but. it felt really nice. I think it would be worth buying. Perfect little pocket gun for CC.
