SAN JOSE, Calif., Feb. 2, 2026 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — A class action lawsuit known as Johnson v. Glock, Inc., et al., Case No.: 3:20-cv-08807-WHO is pending in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California against Glock Ges.m.b.H. and Glock, Inc. (together, “Glock” or “Defendants”). The lawsuit alleges that the design of the chamber in the Glock pistols identified above renders the pistols unreasonably dangerous and unfit for their intended use, and as a result, consumers who purchased any Glock pistol designed to shoot the following calibers: (1) 10mm, (2) 40 S&W, (3) 9mm, (4) 45 ACP, (5) 45 GAP, (6) .380, and (7) .357 Sig. in the State of California overpaid for their Glock pistol. This lawsuit alleges violations of laws regarding consumer protection, failure to disclose information, unfair business practices, and false advertising, not personal injury or property damage.
Glock denies the legal claims in this lawsuit and says that the design of the chamber does not render the pistols unreasonably dangerous and unfit for their intended use. However, if you are a member of the class, your legal rights are affected, and you have a choice to make now.
