    Glock leg, eh?

        All I can say at this point, wait and see. Maybe it was dirty. We know that guns do not shoot by themselves unless something is wrong with the weapon.

          I unno why glock just runs with the trigger safety. It's barely even a safety... The thing I like about the XD over the glock is the 1911 style grip safety. Stuff like getting a jacket strap or folded leather holster onto that trigger are all real possibilities.

          Just having that safety seems like a liability to me, especially when it's not something you have to worry about with a lot of other handguns.

              Must have been a gen4. Glad the roster protects us from unsafe guns like the gen 4's and Sig 320's. [emoji41]

                  It would be interesting to know what type of holster he was using.

                    Sure, and 99% of the time no AD's happen. But did you check out the other thread? Where the dudes sweater elastic thing got stuck in the trigger guard and ended up discharging the pistol.

                    Just seems like unnecessary stress to constantly worry about something potentially getting stuck in your trigger guard. I only every hear about glocks getting discharged like this. Could be that they're in service in almost every corner of the world so the volume of them would make sense, or the lack of separate external safety makes for an issue.

                            Whoever thought that putting the safety on the trigger was a good idea is an idiot.

Could a gun fire on it's own? Possibly. The likelihood of that being the case is 99.99% nought. Sorry, not buying what you're selling. User error dose not equate to malfunction. Period. The Glock did what it was designed to do. That is why I bought their product.You have options. Exercise them. Me? Glock all day!
                              1. Did I ever say I was anti-glock? 2. You can go on like that and enjoy it until you shoot yourself in the the leg, or forever be paranoid that you may.

                              With that being said I still like the G19, though I don't think I'd carry one. I'd like an external safety of sorts.

                              They are meant for professionals... yet professionals keep shooting themselves with it...?
