description
The weapon was presented in 2005 at the Shoot 2005 trade fair . It should meet the demands of many security guards. On the one hand, they were looking for a light, handy weapon for self-defense that should have a high penetration power. Weapons with a similar caliber as the Glock 38 were consistently much larger and less suitable for concealed carry. Smaller guns that could be carried concealed are usually much smaller in caliber. The Glock 38 represented a successful compromise here. The small amount of ammunition that can be loaded proves to be a disadvantage.
