Glock
Polymer-framed handgun
Glock is a brand of polymer-framed pistol, Austrian in origin, widely used by police and military forces.
The name has become nearly generic for semi-automatic handguns in casual speech, especially in hip-hop and crime contexts: He pulled out his Glock.
The brand's reliability and prevalence make it shorthand for any serious firearm.
