Fascinating topic.

I recently acquired my first handgun and have had endless fun with it, so much so that I am tempted to incorporate it into a fan fiction, should I ever get inspired.

Thanks for that great write-up, Hitch. Sadly, my range time is limited, and I haven't been able to really wring out all the potential of my WG. You're right, that trigger is a bear, and since I don't get to the range very often, I haven't yet developed "Cracker Finger." I have, however learned to avoid the cheap carbonated ammo. The more expensive stuff works great, but the cheap stuff almost always leaves the air bubbles you described. For general pliking, I stick with the fluoridated ammo. Always reliable.

Ummmmmmmm Hitch, you can't get a Glock through airport security. The slide is steel as are all the internal parts. I think you have been watching Die Hard II a litttle too much. And what the hell is an Exmus CrackerWG?

Please forgive my ignorance. The rather garbled notes were cobbled together from a recent SIS briefing held in the back of a speeding Daimler. It's the only way to travel, especially in London. :cooltongue:
