What's wrong with Glocks?

[Adam Helmer]

model 70,

I tend to agree with VinVega, the Glocks are ugly and a more positive safety than what we had (none) on the previously issued DA S&W revolvers would have been nice. In 1989 we got Glock 17s and 19s at the agency and I took the M19. I was the Firearms Coordinator (Instructor) for all 100 of our agents in New England. I shot my Glock 19 a lot and it was accurate and three (3) times in 7 years it quit DEAD STOP! Luckily, I was on the range when my Glock 19 died! All three times I sent it back to Smyrna, GA for refit and overhaul and it now reposes in my vault. I got a brief letter from Glock after each refit for the reasons for the "stoppage" and now carry a Colt M1911 CCW.
