Some people may call him "Saint John Browning", but unfortunately neither 
he nor Gaston Glock have designed a pistol which fits my hands (other 
than the Glock 26 and 27). Now, some of Browning's other designs ...
So he's not perfect. And there's nothing wrong with people like me and 
perhaps you whom he simply failed to consider. OTOH, I won't call someone 
who likes 1911s crazy - unless they fail to see that there are those of 
us who can't like it. I can admire the design, but I just can't use it.
As I've said, Glock's new "sub-compacts" are the only Glocks I like. 
People can say all they want praising the 17 or 19 or any of the others, 
and presumably they are great guns, but they simply aren't useful to me. 
And if that's not good enough for such people, then maybe they are crazy 
too.
And by the same token, if you think people are crazy just for liking the 
1911 or Glock ... Well, I'm sure you can guess the rest. ;-)
