There you go I fixed it for you..... Now that was just funny.
I would put very little stock in that article.
I especially liked the former CA cop who said he carried one in SWAT for 30 years. [dig]
Yeah, I caught that, too. Pretty impressive since the gun's only been in America since about 1985. And the response was so typically Glock...it's the ammo. It's always something other than the gun with Glock. Why can't they just admit they make a complicated product that is subject to high stress and abuse and that product sometimes fails? Then fix it.Quote:

Testing for the Glock started in 1979 and the first Glock(17) was produced in 1982.
Close enough for me :)Quote:
