   My first impression of his reportage was that it was borderline 
hysterical, 
based on third-hand anecdotal information which he was not willing to hear 
challenged or even questioned.
   Perhaps I misunderstood - it happens often enough.
   It sure looked to ME like he was making a blanket indictment on a 
particularly good series of weapons based on something that he thought he 
heard - not exactly the most appropriate way to proceed regardless of who 
friends are.
   If it was indeed a malfunction of the weapon, I'll have my weapons 
corrected, or replaced.  If it was a malfunction on the part of the user, 
I'll 
forever regret the damage that it caused. Whichever way it plays out, I don't 
expect Mike will correct the impression that he left with me, that he 
believes 
anyone who accepts the Glock as a 'safe' weapon is an idiot.
