Glock: The Book

Been reading the book Glock by Paul Barrett, so far it’s a pretty good book. There’s an entire section devoted to Glocks supposedly being able to get past metal detectors, which it can’t and how that baseless hysteria from government officials and anti-gunners sort of propelled it into the spotlight.

    Doesn’t Paul Barrett work for Mayor “Gun’s are evil” Bloomberg?

  2. Jay Peskin Says:

    Saying that Barrett works for Mayor Bloomberg is like saying you work for Obama. You pay taxes to the fed gov, so he is the head of the fed gov, so you must work for him. Get real! Reporters work for their editor, who works for the publisher who marginally works for some corporate flunky who reports to some holding company that is owned by some other group owned by Bloomberg. If LaPierre said the sun rises in the west it wouldn’t be correct because he works for NRA – or would it? What Barrett says should stand or fall on the truth or untruth of his words, not some remote owner of the publication!

    He shot a bunch of my stuff and helped me tote range bags at GBR-6. Cool guy. Not anti at all.

  4. DirtCrashr Says:

    I’d say he’s not a Bloomberger-tool, just a resident of Tool-Town where many of the same attitudes and implicit assumptions occur, and based on that in my interaction with him post GBR I was somewhat unfair and didn’t give him the chance to defend himself – but mainly that was because as a Sigbouy and 1911er I’m just *really* not particularly interested in the political (or other) history of Glocks.
    If he’d written a book about Sigs I’d prolly be all over it, since the 1911 ship has already sailed so many times.

    I spent a fair amount of time talking with him at GBR-6, and he isn’t really anti-gun, though he isn’t quite as comfortable with them as most of us who have been using them all our lives. He’s learning, though.

  6. Skip Says:

    That and he lives in NYC and can’t own one.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
