Gents, be the first on your block with the new Glock 15!

[bobsguns]

Due to my dazzling personality and charming good looks, someone I know VERY high up in Glock sent me this. This is a pre-SHOT Show pub shot, so don't get too caught up in the quality of the pic.

Caliber is 7.62x25, which is indeed surprising, IMO. However, that's not THE biggest surprise. It has a HAMMER!

Yes, gents, a Glock with a HAMMER! (Which is why you see the safety lever on the side there, duh!)

Not sure how well the caliber will sell though?

Gaston told me it would be in  30 Super??

Gaston is just as senile as Pedo Joe these days. Don't listen to him.

7.62 x 25????

It clearly says 30x19 on the slide..... Methinks tomfoolery is afoot. 

[Grayfox54]

I don't see no hammer. And it is marked 30x19.  I too think this is some kind of joke.

30x19 is the metric listing. Basically it's the Tokarev round/caliber.

The background on the caliber:

Quote

The TT-30, commonly known simply as the Tokarev, is an out-of-production Soviet semi-automatic pistol. It was developed in the early 1930s by Fedor Tokarev as a service pistol for the Soviet military to replace the Nagant M1895 revolver that had been in use since the Russian Empire, though it ended up being used in conjunction with, rather than replacing, the M1895. It served until 1952, when it was replaced by the Makarov pistol.

The Tokarev is a bottlenecked cartridge, somewhere along the lines of 9mm +P ballistics. 

I'm thinking this might be a European-only model for a while? That's why it's listed as a 30x19?

I didn't save the hammer pic, sadly. You can see the safety lever on the side. Striker guns don't use lever safeties, only hammer guns do.

I'm holding out for this lovely jewel.

No it isn't. 

Tokarev is 7.62 x 25. 30x19 in foreign would be 7.62x19.

Which doesn't exist.

[gun sane]

What?  No trigger safety?  You'll shoot your eye out, kid!

Oh sure, but just remember, this is from the same folks that introduced a .380 the size of most makers subcompact 9's, so...

Just repeating what I was told. I don't reload so I don't know these obscure calibers.

[bobsguns]

Apparently there's also an additional new release: the Glock 7!

Reportedly to be THE smallest 9mm ever made, which looks like it, IMO.

This one seems to be also a prototype as it doesn't have the Glock sights on it.

Made from porcelain and costs more than you make in a month?

[monkeylizard]

That's some pretty funny photoshopping right there.

Pardon my ignorance please...but isn't 7.62x25 a European/Commie Block caliber? Like the Tokarov?

That would be a very hot little round for the Glocks. Sort of one-upping the .357Sig?

All this is moot if it's just another tease, but might be an interesting combo.

Edit...HandsomeRob beat me to it. I should read the whole thread before commenting. lol

This is the most absurd part of this thread, and it's chock full of absurdity.

If I'm not mistaken,  Glock has never put its logo on top of any of their guns before. I like Glocks and hammer guns but this is one ugly pistol. The take-down lever is wierd too. I think this is bull.

[downtown]

Appears that the logo on the top of the slide is photoshopped. It's slightly slanted and really off center. 

[monkeylizard]

Nah, they're just using S&W's Quality Control team for this one.

I finally figured out why this looks so familiar.  

It appears that someone photoshopped an amalgamation of a G44 and an ISSC M22.
