Funny stuff. Despite the yelling he seems like he'd be a good guy and would be interesting to hang out with

I know a guy who works for Daniel Defense and has met him a few times who said the same things. Once he's out of the public eye, he's a very mellow and genuinely nice guy.

How about the ridiculous mistake in the his "Somebody picked the wrong house" commercial? You can easily tell from the trigger position that the striker is down with no round in the pipe. Someone's gonna confront an intruder like that before racking the slide? Riiiiight.

No need to rack the slide with my stuff. The rifles and shotspoon stay with one in the chamber. The 238 stays cocked and locked and the P9S stays safety off, hammer dropped in DA

Ditto in my house, but then I don't use a Glock for home defense, just occasional carry.

Isn't it amazing how many tv shows make a hammer-cocking noise when showing Glocks, even though they have no hammer and no controls than make any sounds?

Haven't had a Glock since my G26....just didn't like it...too big for super concealed....too small for my winter carry...Not a bad gun overall, I just didn't like it. It wasn't particularly good at anything.

Guys at the cigar bar laugh at me all the time for point out movie firearm faux pas' like that.
The last sound an intruder in my house will hear is my bedroom door quietly opening.

I saw the Gunny at SHOT last year, signing autographs at the Glock exhibit. That's actually the best time to talk to the Glock folks there, since all the other folks are standing in line to see the Gunny. I love my Glock 23, but it took a loooong time before I warmed up to Glocks. I'd never have it as my only gun, but it has a nice place in my collection and it's cheap enough that I don't worry about losing it.
