The Glock 42 has earned a permanent spot in the concealed carry world for a simple reason: it packs genuine Glock reliability into the smallest package the company has ever built. This Custom FDE version wraps that proven platform in a Flat Dark Earth finish across both the slide and frame, giving it a clean, earthy look that stands apart from the standard black models on the shelf. It's built in the USA and chambered in soft-shooting .380 ACP, which makes it one of the most manageable little pistols you can put in your pocket or on your belt.
The numbers tell the story here. You're looking at 5.94 inches long, 4.13 inches tall, and just 0.94 inches wide, with an unloaded weight of 13.76 ounces. Even fully loaded it stays under 18 ounces. That kind of footprint means you can carry it in a pocket holster, inside the waistband, or in a bag without ever feeling weighed down. The 3.25 inch barrel uses right-hand hexagonal rifling with a 9.84 inch twist, so accuracy holds up better than you'd expect from something this small.
Don't let the size fool you into thinking Glock cut corners. The G42 runs the same striker-fired, locked-breech design as its bigger siblings, along with a dual recoil spring assembly that takes real bite out of the .380's already mild recoil. The Safe Action trigger feels exactly like every other Glock you've handled, and the textured polymer grip gives smaller hands plenty of purchase. That combination makes this a favorite for newer pistol owners, folks sensitive to recoil, or anyone who wants a backup gun that behaves like their primary.
Each pistol ships with two 6-round magazines, so you've got a spare from day one. Whether this ends up as your daily carry or the gun that rides along when a bigger pistol won't work, the G42 Custom FDE delivers the kind of dependability that made Glock a household name, in a size that never gives you an excuse to leave it at home.
It's one of the easiest pistols on the market to conceal. At 5.94 inches long, 0.94 inches wide, and under 14 ounces unloaded, it works in pocket holsters, waistband carry, or as a backup piece. The G42 is the smallest pistol Glock makes, and it was designed from the ground up for daily carry.
Not at all, and that's a big part of its appeal. The .380 ACP cartridge is naturally soft-shooting, and the G42's dual recoil spring assembly tames it even further. It's a popular pick for newer pistol owners, people with smaller hands, and anyone who finds snappy micro 9mms unpleasant to practice with.
Mechanically it's the same proven G42 platform. The Custom FDE version applies a Flat Dark Earth finish to both the slide and the frame, where standard models come in black. Everything else, including the Safe Action trigger, 3.25 inch barrel, and 6-round capacity, carries over unchanged.
This model ships with two 6-round magazines, so you have a spare ready for the range or for carry rotation. Standard Glock 42 magazines are widely available if you want to add more, and extended base plate options exist if you'd like a little extra grip length.
