Jay-SUS! Where to begin?!?
But thanks for the soft one over the middle of the plate…

- Maintain your pistols better.[/*:2z4ba51o]
- Stop limp-wristing.[/*:2z4ba51o]
- Stop standing there, or have your ejector "tuned."[/*:2z4ba51o]
- Legitimate observation and concern.[/*:2z4ba51o]
- "People" don't have to use solid guide rods, they chose to because it's an easy add-on and gun persons love to add those custom touches that make a gun "cooler" and more personal. Hell, 45-50 years ago, if someone would have offered aftermarket Oversized Seat Covers and Three-Quarter Race Speed Wax for the '49-'51 Ford or the '55-'57 Chevy, guys would've bought it.[/*:2z4ba51o]
- If one shoots "factory-new ammo", there's no need to change magazine springs, recoil springs or mag followers.[/*:2z4ba51o]
- Rare? Hardly… they are overwhelming the norm.[/*:2z4ba51o]
- There is no "need" for the .45 G.A.P. other than Gaston's considerable ego, and "naming equity" with SIG, S&W and Colt's.[/*:2z4ba51o]
- It's well-established that the Models 37 required the larger-than-originally-announced slide to control the slide velocities of the .45 G.A.P.[/*:2z4ba51o]
- The Models 36 are chambered in .45 ACP, so your attempt at a comparison is immaterial.[/*:2z4ba51o]
- Your characterization of what you consider an admission wouldn't hold up in a court of law, much less the court of public opinion, especially with that small but intrepid band of Model 36 owners.[/*:2z4ba51o]
- Yes, Glock should do some redesigning, but they are unlikely to as long as it remains as extraordinarily popular as it is, and has been since its introduction 18+ years ago.[/*:2z4ba51o]
- "Everyone knows" dick! That's the silliest part of your entire rant.[/*:2z4ba51o]
- The design of the .45 G.A.P. cartridge case was done from the ground up, so to speak, by a savvy young ATK engineer who knew exactly for whom and what he was designing the round. He did an excellent job, but some reloaders are careless, and other jus' love to "push the envelope," and when that happens, there will be kB!s, in Colt's, H&Ks, SIGs, Berettas and S&Ws as well as in Glocks.[/*:2z4ba51o]
- The "slamming" assessment is an interesting one, but in light of your prior assertions, should be approached with a healthy amount of dubiety.[/*:2z4ba51o]
- The same may be said of the "thin brittle chamber" charge… your source on this, or your credentials, please![/*:2z4ba51o]
- You're right, Glock doesn't listen… nor should then if this is representative of what they are forced to listen to![/*:2z4ba51o]
You? Imagine my astonishment!
