The Glock 48 FR PA4850201FR is a slimline 9mm Luger semi-automatic pistol featuring a 4.17-inch Glock Marksman Barrel, 10+1 capacity, front accessory rail, front slide serrations, matte-black slide, black polymer frame, and Glock Safe Action® system. Davidson’s identifies this exact configuration as PA4850201FR / UPC 764503039850.
The G48 is designed around Glock’s Slimline frame, combining a compact-width profile with a grip and slide length that provide a larger handling surface than the smaller G43-series pistol. Davidson’s lists an overall length of 7.28 inches and a width of approximately 1.02 inches, making the G48 notably thin for its overall dimensions.
This specific FR configuration includes a front accessory rail. That is an important SKU-specific feature to retain when cataloging PA4850201FR, particularly because not every historical G48 configuration was equipped with the rail. Davidson’s specifically lists both “Front Rail” and “Forend Rail: Front Rail” for this model.
The pistol is chambered in 9mm Luger with a factory capacity of 10+1 rounds. Davidson’s lists two magazines with the pistol and identifies them as Slimline single-stack magazines.
Model PA4850201FR uses a 4.17-inch Glock Marksman Barrel (GMB). Davidson’s describes the barrel as carbon steel and lists a 1:9.84 twist rate. The GMB, combined with Glock’s precision-milled front serrations, is part of the Gen5/Slimline feature set incorporated into the G48.
The frame is constructed from black polymer and incorporates a built-in beavertail, short trigger distance and reversible magazine catch. The slide receives a matte-black finish and incorporates front serrations for additional purchase during slide manipulation.
The factory sight system consists of a white-dot front sight and white-outline rear sight. This particular SKU is the standard sight configuration rather than a factory night-sight model.
The G48 uses Glock’s striker-fired Safe Action® system. Davidson’s lists an average trigger pull of approximately 5.5 pounds and identifies the pistol's safety system as Glock Safe Action safeties.
At just 18.48 ounces, PA4850201FR maintains the lightweight characteristics of Glock’s Slimline family despite its 4.17-inch barrel and 7.28-inch overall length.
