2 things have always bothered me about that meme (not b/c I actually care about the Glock vs 1911 debate, but b/c it's just inaccurate) 1. That Glock would likely still function flawlessly. Worst case scenario, you might have to take a dremmel and smooth out the mouth of the magwell. 2. A dog gnawing on the grip of a 1911 would likely do extensive damage to it too. So, I just don't get it.....

Ok...I own 1911's and Glocks...enjoy them equally, and never a bit of trouble out of any of them...but that meme is hilarious!

He was.....but less for what he produced and more for how he produced it.

a man came to henry ford and showed him a square headed screw driver and told him how much time he would save per car, by not using flat headed screws. Ol stingy ford wouldnt buy it from him, In stead he paid someone to create a different screw, thats how we ended up with the phillips head screwdriver.

Anyone who likes firearms should read Glock: The rise of America's gun by Paul Barrett. Really interesting read. Glock knew almost nothing about firearms but knows a lot about injection molding and designed the firearm at age 52 to bid for the manufacturing contract on a pistol for the Austrian army. Cool book and cool story.

You know what they say. If you wanna hit somebody with a 1911, throw it at them.

Lots of funnies...but seriously why has every (yes EVERY) Ipsc world and national title been won with a 1911? (Or derivative CZ 75 or Browning High Power) Answer people that shoot fast and we'll shoot 1911's better than Glocks. Look it up as Casey Stengel used to say.

I would say that's it's just easier to shoot fast and well with a one pound single action trigger than even a modified 3 to 5 pound striker design. It doesn't necessarily carry over to every day SD though.
