Manufacturer catalog

Glock Gesellschaft m.b.H.

Glock Gesellschaft m.b.H. is the Austrian company behind the Glock pistol line and related small-arms products. Official company material traces the business from Gaston Glock's 1963 manufacturing firm into the polymer-framed service-pistol line that emerged from Austria's early-1980s military handgun requirement.

For catalog use, the manufacturer context matters because Glock pistol records can otherwise collapse into shorthand model names. Glock pistol records in this catalog are tied to the company's legal identity, official Austrian addresses and production sites, and product-family documentation for Glock models that appear elsewhere in the catalog.
