The Glock 29 is a semi-automatic pistol manufactured by Glock Inc., introduced in 1997. It is a large frame sub compact Glock somewhat bigger than the Glock 26 and fires 10mm Auto ammunition. The Glock 30, which is chambered for .45 Auto (ACP), is built on the same frame. Due the the relative scarcity of the 10mm round, this sub-compact pistol is rarely encountered. The Glock 29 is mainly being used as a self defense pistol. It has a 10 round magazine capacity.
The Glock 29 has a double recoil spring which makes the powerful 10mm load manageable even in such a small pistol.
It operates and holds the same components as a Glock 26 but all parts have been adapted to the 10mm Auto ammunition.
The price for the Glock 29 ranges from around $500-600 in the US.
