The pistol’s trigger action, sights and appearance are typical GLOCK, and it feels good in the hand. I have never thought the GLOCK has a natural point this pistol is an exception.Īnother exception is that it is made in America. Imports, exports and tariffs are heady political discussions, and the bottom line is that Glock has given a lot of good folks in Georgia honest work. I like that.
