have something in common with the Glock. Just common sense, if you are going to copy a gun, then copy the one that is #1, the gun that most of the Special Forces and law enforcement carry and depend upon every day.
The Glock is ugly, has no class, character or fine points but it always works and it is the best there is. Everything else is just a copy. And I don't carry a Glock so I don't say this because it is what I carry. I say it because it is true. Other guns may well be prettier and nicer to look at but they can't say they never fail to fire, like the Glock does. The only Glock I have ever seen to jam or fail to fire was one that some wannabe gunsmiths had dicked around with and changed the internals or other parts which should be illegal for a carry gun.
I have 2 good friends that were Special Forces that I used to know at Ft. Campbell and they say thru the years they have been told to carry what sidearm they know they can depend upon and they and most of the other SF boys carry what they feel is the best. They carry the Glock 19.
Not trying to start an argument here, just posting some common sense. If I were to change what I carry, after shooting most of the new 9mms that have come out in the last 3 years, if I had to carry a 9mm, I would carry the Glock 19. Nuff said. And for what it's worth, Kase carries a Sig and if I ever find what I am looking for I will probably carry a Commander 1911 in 45. I should probably carry the Glock 19 but I am too used to a single action 1911 to change. I think they call it muscle memory or something like that.
