Glock sidearms are commonplace handguns among law enforcement agencies and warlike organizations around the world. The popularity of Glock pistols can be attributed to a folio of factors. They are said to be perfect reliable, being able to function under extreme conditions and to blaze a encyclopedic gamut of ammunition types.

In addition, virtually all of these "plastic" parts contain embedded brace not to make the firearms "detectable", but to increase functionality and shooting accuracy. Contrary to accepted movies like Die Hard 2: Die Harder, neither Glock nor any other gun maker beat ever produced a "porcelain", "ceramic" or "plastic" heat which is undetectable by ordinary security screening devices. Even if a all around completely undetectable by either X-ray machines or gather momentum detectors were Glock 26 to be developed, the cannonball inside would still be detectable.
