Glock 19

Quickstart

1. Craft the Glock 19 using the recipe below.
2. Hold it in your hand and press the use/attack button to fire a shot.
3. Wait a moment between shots — the pistol has a short cooldown before it can fire again.
4. In a pinch, swing it at an enemy up close to bash them with a knockback strike instead of shooting.

Overview

The Glock 19 is a compact, craftable sidearm designed for modern combat and roleplay scenarios. Instead of behaving like a typical melee weapon, it fires projectiles at range while still being able to deliver a solid knockback blow if used in melee.

What It Adds

• Glock 19 — a one-handed pistol-style item that can be crafted, carried, and used as a ranged weapon.

Crafting And Obtaining

Craft the Glock 19 at a crafting table using iron ingots and redstone:

The pistol is fairly rare to produce due to its ingredient cost, reflecting its status as a specialized weapon rather than a basic tool.

How To Use

• Equip it: Place the Glock 19 in your hand like any other tool or weapon.
• Fire it: Use the item (the same action used to eat food or use a bow) to fire a shot in the direction you're looking. Shots travel forward with real momentum, so aim carefully — projectiles behave like fired arrows and are affected by gravity and travel speed.
• Fire rate: The pistol enforces a short cooldown between shots, so it fires at a controlled, semi-automatic pace rather than every tick. Wait briefly after each shot before firing again.
• Melee bash: Attacking a target directly with the Glock 19 doesn't fire a bullet — instead it delivers a physical bash that knocks the target back in the direction you're facing, useful for pushing enemies away in a pinch.

Abilities And Mechanics

• Ranged attack: Firing spawns a fast-moving projectile in front of you at roughly eye level, launched along your view direction.
• Melee knockback: Striking a living target (players or mobs) in melee applies knockback rather than a standard weapon swing.
• Durability: The Glock 19 has limited durability and takes damage unpredictably with use — it won't wear down at a perfectly fixed rate.
• Repair: Restore durability by repairing it with iron ingots, similar to repairing other iron tools and weapons.
• Enchanting: The Glock 19 can be enchanted using sword-related enchantments, since it is treated as a sword-class weapon for enchanting purposes.

Progression And Strategy

• Treat the Glock 19 as a ranged sidearm: engage enemies at a distance by firing repeatedly, respecting its cooldown between shots for accurate follow-up fire.
• Keep iron ingots on hand to repair the weapon between engagements, since durability loss is somewhat random and can add up quickly in prolonged fights.
• Enchant it defensively or offensively as you would a sword to make it more durable or more effective in the rare cases you're forced into melee range.
• Use the melee bash as an emergency option when enemies get too close for a clean shot, knocking them back to create space before resuming ranged fire.
