AG Platkin Statement on Glock Decision

Published Date: Oct 14, 2025

“Today, we won a major victory in our landmark case against Glock, which seeks to hold the company accountable for designing and selling firearms that can be easily converted into illegal machine guns with a plastic component the size of a Lego. The New Jersey Superior Court rejected every one of Glock’s arguments in their motion to dismiss. As a result, we will continue our legal fight to hold Glock responsible for violating our laws and knowingly contributing to the machine gun epidemic that is hurting both civilians and law enforcement officers. When my office brought this case last December, we knew that this Austria-based gun company would do everything in its power to evade responsibility for hurting Americans. But we also knew that we have the law and facts on our side, and today we are grateful to have prevailed. This victory is the latest example of our commitment to holding members of the firearms industry accountable when their illegal business practices put live at risk. These lawsuits are a central component of our comprehensive and tireless approach to ending the gun violence epidemic — which has resulted in the lowest levels of gun violence in New Jersey history for three years running.”
