Pure abuse.

What's the point?

What's the point?

Yeah...if any of that stuff happens to it, while I'm wearing it, I'm not going to be in any shape to shoot, with it! LOL

Ya know.....I wouldn't mind having a high capacity Glock, chambered in 7.62x25!

Find another pistol that can take that and I'll kiss your butt on Canal and Royal Street. I'll even give ya a half hour to draw a crowd. Your Glock will most prolly never see this abuse but it's nice to know it can take it. Simply this best design ever!

What time will the crowds be the biggest.

I actually posted that with you in mind. One thing about Glocks you either like 'em or you don't. I was in LE when they first came out <EDIT: When they became popular in rural Okla> . The very same officers that used to laugh at the 'plastic' guns now swear by them.

This may help. LOL

MARDI GRAS CALENDAR DATES
When you're ready for the big experience, you'll need to know when it will be! You'll find the big day can fall on any Tuesday between February 3 and March 9. Carnival celebration starts on January 6, the Twelfth Night (feast of Epiphany); and picks up speed until Midnight on Mardi Gras, the day before Ash Wednesday.

How will you know which Tuesday it will be? Ash Wednesday is always 46 days before Easter and Fat Tuesday is always the day before Ash Wednesday. Easter can fall on any Sunday from March 23 to April 25 with the exact date to coincide with the first Sunday after the full moon following a Spring Equinox! There you have it! Voila!

If you're still confused, get out that calendar with the printed holidays on it--it's the day before Ash Wednesday!

I personaly don't care what time. Iwill be there for the whole show

[Rick]

Mardi Gras won't work. Everybody is kissin' everybody's butt then. We want this to be a spectacle.

Chuck Taylor (gun writer) has a Glock that last I checked had somewhere in excess of 900,000 rounds through it and still going strong w/o a major parts breakage. The XD is a great gun but 20,000 rounds and 900,000 is not even close. I also missed the part where they dropped an XD from a plane in flight. The FBI trials had Glocks go past 50,000 rounds without any breakage and that was after a 40 foot drop from a chopper onto pavement. They even dragged one down the road on a rope for a mile and it still ran w/o fail. Nice try Crash but no cigar. I stand by my original post. There will be no show tonight folks.

Hey if you want to back out on your challenge, that's up to you.

[Pal334]

Glock: Do you have a site or source for :" The FBI trials had Glocks go past 50,000 rounds without any breakage and that was after a 400 foot drop from a chopper onto pavement. "

I would enjoy reading about their test criteria.

[Rick]

I've got the camera ready. Just sayin'.....

[glockcop]

Hey if you want to back out on your challenge, that's up to you.

The challenge has yet to be matched, my friend. The XD has not been through what Glock has period. NUFF SAID. No a$$ kissing happening on this one. Take care, Brother.

Sorry Pal. The 400 foot thing was a typo. I meant 40 foot. I have edited appropriately. No I don't have a source for ya but it is what I remember from a Fed Instructor I spoke with after their testing. I do have a Glock Annual (mag) that has the criteria for the FBI and the results. It was impressive to say the least. Best.

[2dumb2kwit]

Aw man, this thing is going nowhere.

This one was dropped from 3' higher....

That one had three less grains of sand, in the mag...

I'm going back to the cat thread.

No problems,

[crashdive123]

Yep. NUFF SAID.
