I think it may be the marketing hype that gets to some folks about Glocks. All this stuff about reliability, ease of maintenance, interchangeability of common parts, availability of accessories... Yeah that's all cool , but the grip angle is all wrong and the dang things are really unsafe. Plus, they just are not very well made and certainly not accurate. But, for marginal shooters or those on the cheap, they are "okay" pistols I guess. As far as plastic pistols go, I gotta rank them near the bottom of the heap.

The Glock grip angle came from the German Luger, that's why it seems odd.
As far as not safe, unreliable, and not accurate for a more proficient shooter, that's kinda' stretching it.
1) Just keep your finger off the trigger, 99.999% safe. :rollingla
2) I find them to be just as reliable as my S&W Shield or S&W Model 66. I have probably only had 1 FTE from my 35, which I've had now going on 2 years. My 20 has only had, also, 1 FTE. I've had it for about a year.
3) I'm quite a proficient shooter with handguns and at 25 yards I can place all 15 rounds out of my 35 into about a 1" to a 1 1/2" group. So accuracy is there.

Go ahead and get us some pics of this 1 inch 15 round 25 yard group.

Hell my TRP won't do that, my CZ won't do that...hell my new AR will hardly do that with $500 barrel and $1 a round ammo
