Description
Popularized by the media as the ''all plastic gun,'' the ''terrorist special,'' and the ''gun that can pass undetected through airport security systems,'' the Glock is actually none of these. Since their U.S. debut in 1985, Glock pistols have been the subject of considerable controversy, both in law enforcement circles and among the general public. And while the flames fueled by the media have died down and Glocks have come to enjoy overwhelming acceptance in recent years, the debate rages on and misconceptions still abound.
In this book, firearms instructor and longtime Glock owner Peter Alan Kasler debunks the myths, lays to rest the rumors, and, through photos of a special ''cutaway'' Glock that clearly display its unique inner mechanisms, demystifies the design and operations of what is surely the most innovative handgun introduced in some time and possibly in the history of firearms.
