When the Austrian Armed Forces requested, in 1980, a replacement for its Walther P38 service pistol, Glock answered with a revolutionary and winning design, the Pistole 80 (P80). Though Glock wasn’t the first manufacturer to show its ability of advanced engineering and use of modern, space-age materials, it was the first company to receive contract for its “plastic” gun. Now the Austrian maker, nearly 40 years later, is offering a modern rendition of its original P80 service pistol.
Distributed exclusively through Lipsey’s Guns, the P80 from Glock Inc., is a Safe-Action striker-fired pistol built on a full-size, black polymer frame and is chambered for 9 mm Luger. The sub-25-oz. pistol is a throwback commemorative reminiscent of the first-gen G17 pistol, featuring a flat extractor and single-pin frame. The front and backstrap are smooth, too, and the grip features Glock’s pebble-style texturing pattern.
The Glock Pistole 80 displays P80 markings on the steel slide that is topped with polymer front and rear sights. Vertical- and wide-cut cocking serrations are included at the slide’s rear. Glock provides its DLC finish to protect the carbon steel components of the slide assemebly. Fitted within the slide is a 4.49” barrel that features the famed polygonal rifling of yesteryear’s Glock pistols.
