I have read an article about some Green Berets switching over to Glock 19s when they were in Iraq. The story is they confiscated enough Glocks from corrupt police that they could outfit their entire unit. Most were 2nd gen Glocks but they loved the design, light weight and reliability. They ordered some mags, did some garage gunsmiting and they used them throughout their tour.
I've definitely seen photos of Green Berets and Rangers with Glocks doing state-side range work.

Anyway back on topic. I really don't think the P227 is something to get hyped over. It's a concept that SIG should have introduced years ago and every other company has been doing already.
