Gaston Glock, the man responsible for developing the namesake weapon, died on Wednesday at the age of 94.

Glock developed the famous handgun in the 1980s, when the Austrian military was looking for a new, innovative weapon. Until then, the Glock company had made military knives and consumer goods including curtain rods.

RIP

I’ve stayed away from Glocks until a few years ago as I thought of them as an AK of the pistol world, but finally gave in and use them for what they are.
