About Glock

While Glock was founded in 1963, it was during the 1980’s when the Austrian company decided to start manufacturing handguns to meet the needs of the Austrian military. However, the polymer frame and the developed safety system ended up revolutionizing the pistol market. The most unique thing about the Glock brand is their simplicity. With an average of 35 parts, Glock has fewer pieces than any other pistol on the market today. With less parts comes less parts that may break. Their “Glock Perfection” motto shows how important they believe safety and reliability is, especially in an emergency. Check out GrabAGun’s extensive list of all things Glock for our best deals on 9mm handguns!

The Best Handguns for Women: 2022 Edition

January 5, 2022 | 0 Comments

If the last few years have taught us anything, it’s that the gun community will continue to thrive. More and more people have picked up an interest in firearms with women leading the pack. For those that are new or just don’t know where to start, GrabAGun has you covered. We have compiled a list of our recommendations for the best handgun for women, all of which you can find at great prices on our site. For even more options, check out another post of ours that’s all about handguns for beginners! Start the new year off right with a handgun you can rely on. Find the best women’s handgun deals, at prices you’ll want, through GrabAGun today!

Getting Started: Women’s Handgun Deals

There is a lot of information out there and it’s easy to get lost in the weeds. The right handgun for women is a personal endeavor. It takes time to research, test, and get a feel for the firearm that you may be carrying every single day. To help with that, we have put together a comprehensive guide.

Size

Handguns come in various sizes to accommodate shooters’ hand sizes, compliance, and more. Your options are full-sized, compact, and now subcompact (also known as micro-compact). The best handgun for women will depend on their needs, what they are comfortable handling, as well as how they plan on using their firearm.

Full-sized

The largest category of pistols on the market, a full-sized handgun is a preferred choice for most. They are large enough to get a sure, comfortable grip and generally have minimal recoil. Features include barrel lengths in the 5 to 6-inch range, large frames, and a longer sight radius. That said, a petite woman may be comfortable using a full-sized Glock at the range, but it’s not necessarily ideal for daily concealed carry.

Compact

For daily concealed carry, a compact firearm is a must. A compact firearm may be more appealing for female shooters since it can be easier to get a secure, comfortable grip. More and more brands like Glock, Ruger, and Taurus have produced high-quality compact firearms that are perfect for new shooters, women, or anyone that wants a reliable pistol in a reduced size. Compact handguns feature barrel lengths between 3.5 and 4.5-inches, smaller and lighter-weight frames, and reduced grip size.

Subcompact

Something a little newer is subcompact firearms. Often referred to as a “pocket pistol”, these handguns are typically about 1-inch in width with the barrel averaging about 3.25-inches. Every handgun is different, so some may be bigger and some may be smaller. Many like to keep these as backup firearms, typically concealed in lower back or ankle holsters.

Caliber

22LR

Everyone’s got to start somewhere and .22LR is a great place to get that start. Not only is it easy to shoot (minimal recoil), it’s easy to find bulk ammo deals and it’s affordable. This is not the best choice for daily carry, but for target practice? Absolutely! Brands like CCI produce high-quality cartridges that are accurate, no matter how green the shooter may be.

9mm Luger

Arguably the most popular ammo of choice, 9mm Luger is trusted by civilians, military personnel, and law enforcement agencies around the world. It’s a highly versatile round that can be used for daily carry defense, target practice, home defense, and more. While it does have more recoil than .22LR, it’s still incredibly manageable and great for beginners, women—anyone, really. What’s more, it’s not hard to find bulk 9mm ammo deals online, especially at GrabAGun!

.40 S&W

Even though 9mm replaced this as the most popular ammo choice, .40 S&W is still just as effective as it ever was. .40 S&W was originally the FBI standard cartridge because of how damaging it ultimately was. This is a heavy load that can deliver a nasty wound cavity, which is why many trust it for their daily defense carry. It might be a bit much for women to use, so make sure to practice with it as often as possible.

.45 ACP

.45 ACP offers a beautiful combination of accuracy and stopping power. As the official standard military issue for more than 70 years, it’s no wonder why so many choose this for their daily carry. Whether you are at the range or just going about your day, .45 ACP is a reliable cartridge to have on hand. Much like .40 S&W, this may be a harder load for women to use, but with enough practice, you’d be surprised at how easy it is to handle.

Recoil

A common misconception about smaller guns is that they will have less recoil. This is far from the truth. While a smaller gun appears less intimidating, they often pack a serious punch. Combine that with less weight and shorter barrels and many learn, the hard way, that smaller handguns for sale ultimately fail to absorb all that shock. So, though a smaller handgun is easier to conceal, that doesn’t mean it’s better for your overall needs.

Handbag vs. Holster

If you plan on carrying a Glock handgun daily, then it’s important to decide how. Many women may prefer to carry their EDC in a handbag while others may want to use a holster. Unfortunately, most women’s clothing is not geared toward concealed carry, so it can be difficult to figure out what will be best for your everyday needs. Our suggestion is to try out various methods in store to see what you’re most comfortable with. Then, shop for holster deals at GrabAGun to find exactly what you need.

Best Handgun for Women

Sig P365

The Sig P365 is engineered to perform anywhere, at any time, under any circumstance. What’s so special about this handgun for sale? The P365 boasts unique, advanced features allow it to stand out among the rest. This is a revolutionary concealed carry pistol featuring a striker-fired action, a Nitron finished steel frame and slide, as well as a nylon grip. The proprietary magazine design provides a 10-round capacity, chambered for P ammunition, in both a flushed fit and extended grip sizes. It also comes with X-Ray3 day/night sights for accurate target acquisition.

Sig P320 Compact

For a firearm that combines the best of two worlds, look no further than the Sig P320. This compact handgun offers a smooth, crisp trigger, an intuitive 3-point takedown, and an unmatched modularity for versatility in any situation. The compact frame makes it perfect for a day at the range, daily carry, or for use as a home defense pistol. It features an ambidextrous slide release and a reversible magazine release for right and left-handed shooters. With a 1913 Picatinny rail, you can easily customize this to your liking.

Glock 19 Gen 5

Glock is one of the most recognizable brands on top of being one of the most trusted. Whatever you pick up from them, know that it will be dependable until basically the end of time. This attitude can be applied to the Glock 19 Gen 5. A firearm with reduced dimensions, most find that that is a more versatile handgun, applicable in a variety of situations. It’s designed without finger grooves, a customer request, that allows shooters to easily customize the grips to accommodate any hand size. Right and left-handed shooters can easily use this thanks to the reversible magazine catch and ambidextrous slide stop. The rifling and the crown of the barrel have been modified to increase shooter precision.

Springfield Hellcat

One of the biggest complaints with subcompact firearms is the limited round supply. Most pistols only come with a handful of rounds. Springfield took it upon themselves to correct the issue and ultimately did so with the Hellcat. This micro-compact handgun deal is a “paradigm-shifting concealed carry handgun”. It packs 13, 9mm rounds in a space previously reserved for pocket guns. Featuring a 3-inch Melonite-finished hammer-forged steel barrel, a 1-inch thick frame, and Springfield’s legendary reliability, this is by far one of the best gun deals out there.

Taurus G2C

Built specifically for concealed carry, the Taurus G2C is a workhorse of a pistol. With textured grips and melted edges, this is an exceptionally easy and comfortable handgun to use. It features performance-driven autoloaders, high-profile sights, and a Picatinny rail for versatility and customization. Whether you plan on carrying it every day or taking it to the range for practice, this is a gun deal that you don’t want to skip.

Product Spotlight: The Glock 17

November 26, 2012 | 0 Comments

The world of firearms is a vast one and the realm of handguns is a vast one too. With myriads of variations and permutations, there truly is a handgun for every taste, style, and occupation. However, amongst the many different handguns, few ever gain enough traction to thrive in the public arena. Whether for high costs, weight, or unreliability; these constructs struggle to find a niche where they can build a following. The Glock 17 is not one of those handguns. Designed by a team of weapons experts assembled by Gaston Glock nearly thirty-five years ago, the Glock 17 has stood the test of time better than nearly every handgun in its class. Here are a few reasons to love the Glock 17.

1. Maneuverability

Scaling-in at under one and a half pounds, the Glock 17 is a light, maneuverable alternative to most of its contemporaries. Designed with heavy use of polymer-based materials, the Glock 17 takes the prize for comfort and handling in the handgun department. With a muzzle length of seven and a third inches, you can trust that this weapon’s going to go where you want and fast.

2. Magazine

Typically, a gun that’s light on size is also light on ammunition—not the Glock 17. With a seventeen-round magazine capacity, you can think less about how many rounds you have left and more about the target. Plus, this extra ammo has no affect on the aesthetics or the handling of the gun, keeping the height at a snug five and a half inches and the width at a sleek one and a quarter inches. It’s the best of big and small with this semi-auto handgun.

3. Reliability

There aren’t many specs you can throw out to demonstrate just how reliable the Glock 17 truly is. Suffice it to say that it is used by more police and law enforcement personnel than any other handgun in the world. The whole design itself is very simple with only thirty-four parts in the entire design. This reduces malfunctions and complex fixes. When you’re in a crunch, you do not want your gun to misfire. Neither do the cops, which is why they choose this handgun.

Get Your Glock 17 from GrabAGun

There is a lot more that could be said about this Glock: its rifling, patented safety mechanism, and extra features just to name a few. However, the maneuverability and reliability are at the top of the list. If you want a high-quality weapon that you can trust, go for the Glock 17 at GrabAGun and pick up your 9mm ammo as well!
