Saw on www.nra.org that Glock might follow smith&wesson.. Here we go the snowball effect!!
Glock to follow S&W
- Thread starter shooter.45
- Start date
They better deliver my 17 first. If it still looks likely at that time, I'll trade that sucker in and write 'em a letter, not that they give half a fart. I would've expected them to do it first just to gain more dominance in the cop/security market as S+W has done. I doubt they're very happy about Smith getting that preference.
If they get a large enough domino effect, they've found a way to make it effectively impossible for licensed dealers to honestly deal in pre-ban weapons or even sell to people without a given level of training.
I predict exactly four weeks between the time when training becomes mandatory to buy from all the majors until the antis start screaming that the training isn't up to high enough standards . . . . .

If that 17 becomes available, lemme know ok? 
Incursion... it's worth the wait bud. I first became interested when I was 18... talk about a LONG WAIT! I was looking in the classified ads before I turned 21, but never had the guts to call the guy for fear of getting in trouble or it being a setup by local LEO. It may be tempting, but DON'T DO IT!
2 days after I turned 21, I went out and bought a Ruger P-95. It's still the BEST "My First Handgun" on the market.
Best decision I could have made,
Ben

I’ll be faxing and e-mailing Glock tomorrow in an attempt to persuade them to not capitulate. They do a lot of government work, so they may be between a rock and a hard place. IF they must sign an agreement to do business, we want them to grant more reasonable terms then S&W. We want to let them know that HUD may not be able to “give” the contracts it promised to S&W (competitive bidding is required…low bid gets the contract…if there is preferential treatment, it can be taken to court). I’m also going to ask that any agreement carry the stipulation that a national reciprocity law must be passed and signed (that would make Glock heroes to us, wouldn’t it…national reciprocity would put pressure on those states that don’t allow their citizens to carry, don’t you think?).
This came from the NRA site:
Gun owners may wish to contact the companies interviewed by USA Today and urge them to hold firm: Glock, Inc., 6000 Highlands Parkway, Smyrna, GA 30082, (770) 432-1202, Fax
770) 433-8719 and Browning, One Browning Place, Morgan, UT 84050, (515) 623-5401, Fax 515) 623-3896.
I also request you call your congressman or woman and protest this intrusion on congressional authority. Ask them for an immediate bill the would forbid HUD from carrying out it's coersion (uh...agreement).
Also, call Bob Barr (R, GA and John Dingle (D,MI)...these guys will help us...both are NRA. You don't have to live in Georgia or Michigan to voice your support to them. Both have helped we Pro 2nd Amendment folks quite a bit... They deserve our support.
As I mentioned, contracts are to be let on a competitive bid process...Cuomo and Clinton will be gone (probably in jail) in 10 months.
If GeeDubya gets in, he'll put his on man in HUD.

Look for all the 'majors' to join in...sooner or later.
