The first Glock was a 9 MM and there were several things I didn't like about it, including the trigger. I sold it and bought the mod 22 in .40 S&W and the damned thing jammed on the first box of quality ammo. The smith at Bill's Gun Shop in St. Paul trimmed the trigger, polished up the interior and installed Trijicon night sights. I've put another 700-800 rounds through it without a failure. Glad my life didn't depend on this gun right out of the box.
My next direction in shooting sports is air rifles. I will take delivery of a new single shot rifle in a few months. I fired one of the first of these and I know it'll need a trigger job asap. Its available in .308 or .50 cal. I'm getting the .50.

Sherlock Holmes, speaking to Dr. Watson: "There is only one thing I fear, air rifles". I think it was Colonel Moran who tried to execute him with one in "The Empty House".
He may have said "air guns" but can't recall exactly.

"Air" rifles in .308 and .50? Do you mean single-shot "AR" rifles, as in Armalite? I've been into air rifles lately (getting my 7-y.o. boy into the shooting game), but they're all BB guns. $:-)
