Choosing a pistol for training, plinking, or introducing new shooters requires balancing controllability, accuracy, and familiarity with centerfire platforms. A lightweight, low-recoil .22LR that mirrors service-pistol ergonomics can shorten the learning curve while keeping range time economical.

GLOCK G44 is that bridge between beginner-friendly shooting and tactical-style ergonomics. The G44 features a hybrid steel‑polymer slide chambered in Glock’s first .22 caliber offering, delivering a noticeably lighter carry weight and minimal recoil for tighter follow-up shots. It also ships with the GLOCK Marksman Barrel (GMB) for improved accuracy, adjustable rear sights, and two load‑assist magazines—making it ready for range time out of the box.

The G44 was thoroughly tested with a wide variety of ammunition to ensure dependable cycling and to redefine what a compact .22 can do. Priced at $359.99, it’s positioned as an accessible upgrade for shooters who want a durable, service-style platform for inexpensive practice without sacrificing a familiar grip and trigger interface.

Why .22LR is a smart choice

.22LR offers low recoil, low cost per round, and minimal muzzle blast—ideal for beginners, youth programs, and seasoned shooters logging volume without fatigue. On the G44, the reduced recoil enhances sight recovery and helps build consistent fundamentals that translate to centerfire pistols.
