How to Take a Glock 26 Apart
The smallest handgun offered by Glock is the Glock 26, commonly known as the “Baby” Glock. The G26 is chambered in 9mm and comes standard with a 10-round magazine, although the Glock 26 will accommodate the high capacity magazines commonly used by the larger Glock 17 pistol. The G26 was designed for concealed carry, is lightweight and reliable. Glock pistols are designed to be simple and require no special tools to disassemble.
