In this fully updated and revised edition, Robert A. Sadowski showcases all of Glock’s handgun models, from the first model, the Glock 17, which premiered in 1982, to the latest models, and educates firearms enthusiasts on the history, features, and specifications of each model. Book of Glock references all Glock pistols available in the United States with in-depth information on all models—history, serial numbers and letter prefixes, rare Glock variants, conceal carry models, cutaway sales models, and more. Sadowski worked closely with Stanley Ruselowski Jr., the president of the Glock Collectors Association, to bring readers information and photos of rarely seen Glocks. Each chapter is dedicated to a different model. Sadowski provides a timeline of the company’s evolution and a close look at how Glock redefined the combat pistol. Other chapters touch on rare models, commemorative editions, and Glock tools and accessories. Whether a firearms collector or a new enthusiast, anyone can enjoy Sadowski’s analysis of Glocks throughout history. Review: Reference Manual for ye Old Glock - As a gun owner, I firmly believe you should have some sort of reference manual for your firearm. Not only is it good to know the history of the firearm, it also covers technical data and values that could come in handy. I have owned several Glocks in my lifetime and still own a few, and while I will not say it is the firearm to rule them all the Glock is still a reliable weapon used by many nations in the world. And for good reason. This book contains everything from history of the Generations to current Gen 5. There is catalog years for certain serial number runs as well as history on each model to include parts, discontinued versions and unique variants. There were Glock models I never heard of or ones that were exclusive to LEO and military contracts. It is worth the price and while I am sure in a few years a third edition will be out, it is the latest at the moment. These books will be updated as time goes by, but for now, this edition has all that you need. Whether you are a Glock aficionado or just casually uses them for the job, this book is worth putting on the shelf. As a rule, and its mainly my rule, but one I think anyone could benefit from - always have a technical manual or reference book for every firearm you own. Just like you have a maintenance manual for your car, a gun is a tool. A bit of knowledge can save you money, especially now that gunsmithing is pretty expensive. Review: A must for Glocks fans/owners. - Very impressed with content! A must for Glocks fans/owners. Publication date is 2023, missed some more recent releases, but hopefully they will be included in a future edition. Great details in history, commemorative releases and more!

This is a great book, marred by endless typos.
I love this book. I've read it cover to cover, and still peruse it from time to time. I like the detailed history of Glock and the individual write-ups of all the models and variations. The photos are well done and prolific. I don't think anyone can read this and not learning something. The author is obviously a huge fan of Glock and sometimes his prose can sound a bit like an advertisement for Glock, but it's not overbearing by any means. What needs improvement: For the love of Pete, this is Volume 2, why, why, why did not the author, editor, publisher, anyone ever consider proofreading it? Honestly, it's typo after typo after typo. I don't think you can literally read more than a page to two without encountering one. It's honestly a bit off-putting. All the time spent on good prose and awesome photos and no one could be bothered doing a little QC. It doesn't ruin the book, of course, but it does bring it down a star in my opinion. Conclusion: If you want to know about Glocks (a lot about Glocks), this is a great book. I guarantee you'll learn something, and it's an enjoyable read. Just be aware that you'll encounter more typos than Carter has pills (as my Grandmother used to say).
