Glock is appeasing anti-gun nuts.

That’ll work about as well as modernizing Cracker Barrel, or having a homo pretending to be a woman making fun of guys that like football in a beer commercial.

How do you get a job as a CEO in these firms?

If Glock had any balls (they’re Austrian - very Soy place) they’d be advertising their new line of guns, the BFG 9000: https://fallout.wiki/wiki/BFG9000#/media/File:BFG9000.png

It would have a selector switch: safe, single, double tap and zombie mode.

Bayontte lug would be optional.

Guns are pieces or art.

They are tools.

They are equalizers (women, sick, old).

They are part of our history.

They create jobs.

They are master pieces of engineering if you really think about it.

They “empower” the individual.

They deter or prevent crime.

They ensure governments don’t over-reach.

No gun manufacturer should go along with these homo, communist, gun grabbing morons.

This is where you “fight, fight, fight.”

There is no end or limit to this once you go down that road.

The entire Glock range has been redesigned so that they cannot be retrofitted with “ Glock switches “ that convert semi auto Glock pistols into fully automatic machine pistols

Glock switches and 50 rd mag extensions are popular with gang bangers and cartel drug traffickers

Reminds me of the whole golf industry. Buy these clubs and get an extra 10 yards average on your drive. Give me a break with this nonsense. It’s all marketing. It’s all designed to sell you crap that you don’t need.

I’ll keep my tupperware. :-) It’s paid for and I have a bunch of mags and stuff.

Besides, it’s a collectors’ item now! Only a hundredseventythreemillion (or so) of ‘em were ever made! LOL

That’s ok, I like my Sig P320...it’ll go bang even when I don’t touch the trigger.

Speaking of not hitting anything.

You ever seen gangbangers target practicing?

Place east of San Diego I used to go shooting would sometimes be visited by a car load of them.
They would pile out and just start shooting into the dirt in front of them.

“After the first shot you are shooting up everything but what you are shooting at.”

Looking at who uses Glock switches I don’t think they really care...not too far from where I live they sprayed a block party with bullets from a converted Glock and killed some kids.

Palmetto State Armory “DAGGER” series. Copies of Glocks. In fact, parts are interchangeable. Half the price, work just as well.

Prints are out there if you know where to look. If you are handy with machine tools, its not complex. If not it can be made with less advanced methods.

FWIW, a glock on full auto is a blast to shoot. I just hated to pay for the ammo. In a correct setting with proper knowledge and technique, it is possible to do 3 round bursts that will stitch a target center mass.

Discontinuing the old Glock models is likely just step #1.

Step #2 is working with the next Democrat administration to ban the old models as "readily convertable machineguns" and give the owners 30 days to turn them in or face prosecution.

Don't worry though, Glock Inc will provide everyone who turns in an old model for destruction with a $100 voucher for a new model...

This stuff never ends. Y’all will laugh, but I really lije my Star M45 with only 6+1. Just have to hit with one round usually and the fight is over. Heavy steel and no issue to shoot.

Same here. I owned just one Glock and it was very unreliable due to feeding and ejection issues. The unreliability made it useless for self defense. There’s no reason for a brand new gun to consistently malfunction.

Wound up trading it in on a S&W 10 mm, which worked perfectly right out of the box, just like my other semi-auto’s.
