Thread: Chicago suing Glock

    Chicago suing Glock

    Are there switches for Glocks because they are easier to convert or just because they are so common? Does anyone know if the other striker fired pistols are capable of a similar modification?

    The money quote from the article:

    "According to Everytown for Gun Safety, Illinois has among the strongest gun safety laws in the US but continues to experience “an unacceptable rate” of gun violence." (Italics mine).



    So, it's almost as if laws aren't followed very closely by criminals...?

    No idea. I wonder if a partially tensioned design lends itself to it. I know of no other striker gun that has a factory full auto variant.

    There’s even enough of YouTubers and twitter users. And Amazon solvent traps plus a bunch of stuff to build a case against Glock. But idk.

    Unsafe at any speed. We've been down this road before.
    In the P-F basket of deplorables.

    I wonder if the lack of other factory select-fire striker guns is more due to the fact that by the time Glock’s striker fired competitors were released, no government agency or military was looking for select-fire handguns. There’s no market for a select-fire M&P, P10, P320, etc. Does anyone even award contracts to Glock for G18s these days?

    Turn 'em in boys... all your Glocks are readily convertible machineguns!

    In other news, the PLA is now directly arming Chicago gangs, film at eleven!
