Real or an April Fools Joke?

Glock 47, 9x18 Makarov?

Not wanting to let their momentum machine lose any steam after the announcement of the single-stack, 9x19mm Glock 43, the Austrian wondergun manufacturer has unveiled an even more exciting pistol: the 9x18mm Makarov Glock 47.

joke. first off, what happened to 44, 45, and 46?? second, its a dead caliber.

but to play the devils advocate, there may be an interest for it in other countries that prohibit civilian ownership of military calibers?

Must be a joke.

However, I'd LOVE a 9x18 barrel for the Glock 42, or a complete 9x18 Glock with identical specs as the model 42.

Why? Because I already shoot 9x18 and keep a supply on hand, and I'd like a modern concealed carry piece that could shoot that cartridge.

This was at the bottom of the article on your link. "If you made it this far, happy April Fools’ Day! The Glock 47 is not a real product (to our knowledge) so please, please, please don’t bug Glock about it."

Time for a 9x18 1911 rumor...............






This would be the dumbest thing ever.. $500-600 for a plastic cock and you can still get decent milsurps for 1/3rd of the price.

Glock claims that the weight of an unloaded Glock 42 is 13.76 oz. None of the milsurps come close to that.

The P-64 that I often carry is pretty small, but it still weighs 22.5 oz.
