The Glock 20 Gen5 is a semi-auto pistol chambered in 10mm Auto, built by Glock in Austria. From its 117 mm (4.6 in) barrel, Federal American Eagle Handgun, Full Metal Jacket (180 gr FMJ) leaves the muzzle at about 1020 fps (311 m/s), adjusted from the 127 mm test barrel the figure was measured in. Zeroed at 25 m, the bullet drops 28 mm by 50 m with 492 J (363 ft-lb) left. At the muzzle that is enough to defeat Drywall, Plate Glass and Pine Wood, and not enough for Brick, AR500 Steel and Kevlar NIJ IIIA. It feeds from a 15-round magazine.
