After reading the "lady Cop" thread, I feel compelled to share a conversation I had earlier this week...
One of my coworkers is a part time LEO. He is aware of my interest in firearms and we frequently talk guns. The other day he mentioned that about two months ago he had traded in his old duty gun, a Glock 22, for a new Glock 22. He liked his old G22 but wanted the new style frame with finger groves and accessory rail.
I asked him how the new pistol shot. His reply, "I don't know, I havn't shot it yet".
I said, "you've been carrying this pistol on duty for 2 months and havn't test fired it AT ALL?"
"Nope, my old gun was a G22 so they should shoot the same. I've got awhile before I have to requalify."
"What about reliability", I asked.
"Glock test fires the guns at the factory, if there was anything wrong they wouldn't have shipped it........."
