Glock strikes again! I can throw my S&W up against a brick wall and it won’t discharge. Why is it everyone seems to shoot themselves with a Glock?

Is that a Glock? It sure doesn’t look like one...

Where are you coming up with Glock? The story doesnt say anything about Glock, and the gun in the picture is a Beretta.

I hate those things. I never liked that trigger safety combination, nor internal hammers - at least on handguns.

I have Police training from the service and I would never own an automatic.

They scare the bejeebers out of me. Fun to shoot, though. But I could never shake the feeling I left it armed even AFTER I pulled out the ammo. Especially after I witnessed someone blast a round into the clearing barrel.

Sigh. More glock ignorance on display. You can drop a glock from a helicopter and it wont go off. It ONLY goes off when the trigger is pulled. People too stupid to keep their fingers off the trigger when putting a gun in their pants should carry S&W.

Have you ever seen a Glock?

Show me a Glock with an external safety that can be clicked on by the user.

However, I would agree that throwing s S&W against the wall is an appropriate action. The POS might stick!

I think you’re giving this punk too much credit. He most likely had his finger inside the trigger guard as he stuffed his gun inside is waist band.
