Gaston Glock passes on - tommag - 12-27-2023
Like the ar15, I never warmed up to glocks until I bought one and discovered what I could do with it. They are impressive in their function as well as the plug and play aspect of their parts. I remember hearing somewhere that Gaston wasn't a gun guy, just an inventor with a better idea.

I’ve also heard that Mr G was very European- in that he was extremely unfavorable towards Americans possessing firearms.
Which feels like poetic justice for me to keep and bear so many of his brain children 😛 😂 😆
