I've learned a lot about ISS' guns over the years, but Larry definitely learned some stuff that I hadn't heard before. Interesting tidbits:

Correct. I live in Northern VA; I’ve been there twice now.



I actually once visited the museum with a friend and told him...he hadn’t heard of IMFDB before that.

JC,

Nice rifle; glad you were able to get one. Interesting observation RE light placement.

While Glock doesn’t release sales data, I imagine that their .40 S&W pistols are still outselling the 10mm and .45 ACP models (though of course, sales have probably started dropping since the market...

Not sure why; the Gen 2s and most Gen 3s had the grip cutout, and it never seemed to bother anybody. It has never bothered me on my G17, which is a Gen 2, though the -17 is also the Glock I shoot...
