    Looking back over this thread, "Cayenne" would be more apropos.

    I can explain it to you. I can’t understand it for you.

    I think Cayenne belongs to Porsche.

    So does Carrera, but very few Porschephiles find those controversial.

    Given the counterintuitive results of Glock's monotonically increasing numerical naming scheme, it would be deliciously ironic if the G45 were a 22LR gun.

    I thought the guessing game people wanted the G40 to be a .22 because the G22 is a .40 pistol.
    I could care less, I just keep up with the numbers.

    Glock ain't got a hair on their fourth point of contact if they don't do that. With the 22 already a .40, there are some good "Who's on first?" routines that happen in gun stores every day.

    If the 40 was also a .22, they would go to eleven.

    Exactly!

    Of course, Porsche made a zillion bucks on those blasphemous abominations. I am an air-cooled guy to the bone. Anything after 97 is a damn Toyota.

    Already taken. I believe it is the Bundeswere's (sp?) version of the USPf 9mm, with the bass-ackwards safety lever.

    I know of at least one person who walked into a store to buy their first gun with the idea of getting a .22, because thats a good beginner gun, and a Glock because they are simple and reliable, and walked out of the store with a Glock 22 because of this. They weren't able to return/exchange the gun and lots of drama ensued.
