Thanks for the ping about the full auto Glock. The Glock is a remarkable weapon by many standards. I was very skeptical about its design when it was introduced. I was particularly concerned about the tiny, little, stamped steel inserts that the slide rides on. I figured they would be the first parts to go - with possibly catastrophic results. I bought a used G 21 six years ago and have since put many thousands of round through it.

I changed over to a KKM Precision barrel after 6000 rounds through the factory barrel (not because the factory barrel was worn, just because I liked the look of the KKM). The darn thing just "keeps on going". There is no noticeable wear on the slide runners. I like the idea of the Glock 36 but it would be nice if Glock actually made a full size, single stack gun out of it. That would be a good rival for the 1911A1.

My Mod 20 remains my favorite "trouble's coming" pistol. Buy me enough time to get to a rifle or a shotgun.
