In the Glock picture thread, there is a photo of two Glocks with waffled plates on the front of the pistol. They wrench down onto the accessory rail and extend up. My questions are, what are they for? Jabbing at a target that gets too close? Second, where can I get one?

If the weapon is engaged with another person's body (hand, chest, etc.) it prevents the slide from being pushed back. A glock slide only needs to be pushed back about maybe a 1/2 inch or less for the trigger to not function. This would render the gun useless as it would not fire.

One some semi-automatic handguns, rearward movement of the slide unlocks the action, making it impossible to discharge the weapon.

These stand off's are used for close quarters action, when you may have to "press the flesh" in the process of defending yourself.  The contact is with the stand off, attached to the grip frame, and the weapon will fire as normal.

Brownell's has them, but I don't know the price.

Brownells is where I bought mine.  The only holster I could find to fit was a cheapo blackhawk holster. They look cool but  I don't think they are very practical.

It's designed to keep the gun from going out of battery when pressed up against an object.

LOL!  

This reminds me of the "thing-a-ma-bob" thread over on Glocktalk, a couple of years ago.
