I just saw the “glock meltdown” yahoo video on another thread. Something like 240 rds thru a full auto with a stock in about a minute. The shooter didn’t even have gloves on. I’ll bet his left thumb and finger were burnt releasing the slide, but it kept running.

I carried a glock 18 in Desert storm in a E&E shoulder rig with a MP 5 magazine pouch on the off side for the 3 spare 32 round mags and a Ops Inc Can for it.....stoked with 147gr OSM 9mm.

We took em to the range all the time for the year we had em before Aug 2 of 90. I never cooked one like that but they will clear a path .

Much better select fire chauffeur gun that a Beretta 93R IMO. That is a POS for accurate bursts .....

Ha! At same said Frontsight course we were treated to a full auto G17 (not a G18) modified by lonewolfdist.com. Each student got a 30 round mag. Muzzle climb was atrocious. Every third student or so the instructor dunked the handgun in a bucket of water to cool it :)
