    I don't know if there's a whit of difference between them but mine are all Austrian...and if I'm honest, I prefer having them from the country where they originated.

    That said, I have no basis upon which to cast a vote in terms of their quality so I haven't.
    There's nothing civil about this war.

    I feel like having a preference for Glock origin is like picking the cleanest stripper...

    I would say that I have no preference but I also have no knowledge of whether there's an actual difference. I wouldn't pay extra for an Austrian glock no matter how good they are at rugby but I admit that if someone was offering one or the other, my choice, I'd take the Gday Mate version just because you know the Germans make good stuff.
    This is a thread where I built a boat I designed and which I very occasionally update with accounts of using it, which is really fun as long as I'm not driving over logs and blowing up the outboard.

    Many men in peculiar leather shorts are cursing you and your lineage now.

    Yeah, my rather intensely German wife would probably have something to say about it as well, were she not in the middle of some kind of tuberculosis-I-think-related-investigation in a place where the beautiful lake she's near has a solid eighteen inches of ice on it.

    I wrote a whole long post making jokes about this but it occurs to me that this is not GD so...discipline. Pretty good for a 7 drink tuesday.

    I have a USA made Gen 4 17 that I picked up for a very good price. It shoots the same as my Austrian made examples.
