A brand of handgun of revolutionary design that has taken military and law enforcement by storm and appears often in crime. Its innovations consist of a largely plastic construction that is virtually indestructible, extreme reliability of function, and simplicity of operation. In particular, its safety (See Safety) is built into the trigger pull. As a result, Glocks are carried locked and loaded (See Locked and Loaded) and can be fired by simply pulling the trigger. This has resulted in numbers of accidents.
