Gun Myths
The guys at arfcom are looking at gun myths. You know, like file the sear and soda bottles make good suppressors. No mention of Die Hard 2’s infamous:
That punk pulled a Glock 7 on me. You know what that is? It’s a porcelain gun made in Germany. It doesn’t show up on your airport X-ray machines, and it costs more than you make here in a month.
And, thus, Glock hysteria began.

PERIOD-CORRECT DIALOGUE FOLLOWS:
“That punk pulled a Glock 7 on me. You know what that is?”
“Yeah, I do.”
“It’s a porcelain gun made in Germany.”
“No it’s not. It’s a plastic and steel gun made in Austria.”
“It dosen’t show up on you airport X-ray machines…”
“BS! It shows up just fine.”
“…and it cost more than you make here in a month.”
“No it doesn’t. Glock’s dumping them to gain market share. They’re selling for $325 or so, head-to-head with Ruger.”
