Glock to sell 30,000 pistols to Iran. WFT???

[westy1970]

I was not able to find an email address for Glock USA. I woule like to confirm the rumor before writing them a letter. As for Styer, they can kiss my @$$. If Glock is going to sell to Iran, then they can kiss my @$$ too. I just want confirmation, first.

[westy1970]

OOpppss. This was why I was looking for a confirmation.

They will still be used by the insurgents that are in the Iraqi Army, but at least they won't be blatant about it.
I will keep my Glock for now.

The G-19 was the issue sidearm for the New Iraqi Army when I was over there in 2005-06.

Media fact checking at it's very finest. :roll:

[Gman]

Why check the facts when the article promotes your agenda?

[WETWRKS]

Who here thinks that these Glocks won't wind up in the hands of the BGs?

geeezz,

I bet if you looked Wolf is making ammo for Iran too........ :roll:

[WETWRKS]

Wolf? Arn't they in Iran? :mrgreen:

[thedave1164]

I wonder if some here know that we were paying royalities to mauser while were were at war with germany?

Global trade is a weird thing.

I would rather they didn't sell to Iran, but I will not boycott if they do.

[WETWRKS]

You won't boycott? Glock, Steyr. I mean they must be the worst individuals in the world. Havn't you heard?

Cummon people, get over it. Should they have done it? Probably not but they sold to Iran and the legitimate Iraq government, not directly to the insurgents or directly to terrorists. And a company cannot be held accountable for what the buyer does with the weapons.

What of the companies that make the AKs. Which of them are providing rifles to the BGs? We don't ever hear anything about that.
