Had an interesting discussion the other day,



with an ex-soldier from the sandbox. After seeing his YUUUGE arsenal, we talked about our fave handguns. He basically told me I was full of crap cuz I liked a Glock 22 (40 cal).
WELLLL, I've known several 'badge carriers' who 'bet their lives' on their sidearms when things get serious They like Glock 22's.
SO, I Googled, 'most popular hand gun law enforcement'.
Surprise? Not really.
For many reasons, the Glock 40 cal is most popular.
Glocks NEVER jam and they can pump out 14 lethal rounds (better than a Colt 45) before you can blink.
If you like something else, fine, but....
You can disparage me, my car and family, but don't dis my piece....

The Glock 22, which is carried by 60-70% of American police officers, holds 15 rounds in a standard magazine.
Glock has proven to be exceptionally rugged.  It holds up to extensive firing without jamming, requires a minimum of maintenance, and shrugs off abuse. Due to all of the above reasons, as well as attractive pricing, most police departments have adopted the Glock as their standard issue weapon, as well as officers who buy their own weapons.

Because I'm sorta stuck in an Anti-Bush rant.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D99NHb6B03s Can you imagine all those rapper stars with these things? Of course, they'd have to have theirs with 'da bling! Can't be standard, gawd no! And of course, Britney's gotta have one in her car. Paris with her pooch totin' one on the red carpet at some fete. The boys in 'da hood will have a field day on their daily drive bys. P Diddy will wear his on a chain around his neck. You suppose there will be special pockets made in jeans for these things? Trailer trash folks will have 'em camouflaged. Jeff Foxworthy will have to come up with some fresh Redneck stuff. Think George W. will get one, each for the twins? Don't forget Dickie boy for those spur of the moment huntin' trips. Of course Ma Babs will have hers with pearls. Think it will affect the Royals? I can imagine Charles and Camilia on their fox hunt...........ah yes, and Prince Philip, too, must include the

Great 'bargains' at the local Sprouts store

where we picked up asparagus and baby back ribs. Carol and I went for the same stuff (serarately, today), cuz it is so good, AND a great price. Had it for dinner tonight. WOW. One of my fav dinners, as the ribs start out in the crock pot, then finish on the grill, with fresh asparagus. (and bread pudding for dessert) I LOVE this time of year...

You think the Repub brand is tarnished now?

Just wait 'til Bonehead leads us all over the cliff, to save his 2% buddies having to pay a little higher tax. The Pubs keep thinking the American public is stupid, and they can get away with their phony political crap. They keep forgetting we're not all a bunch of FOXNews sheep, who'll swallow whatever swill is shoveled to them. A once proud party, like a beast in it's death throes, striking out to harm whatever's close, threatening to shut the gov't down, (again), over the debt limit, which is just paying the bills they already ran up. Political hacks, pretending to be patriots. So sad...
