GlocK Having a Failure to fire a Good Thing?

Yes, it did and is was. See http://rejfirearmstraining.com/Glock%20 ... 20Fire.htm for details.

So was this a Glock problem, or an AMMO problem?

Was Ted Kennedy driving that lawn mulcher?

In my cousins case it is. He is a minneapolis police officer and somebody drew a weapon on him. He drew his glock and pulled the trigger and *click*. nothing. Turns out the guy just had a cell phone or something. He pulled it out like a gun and pointed it towards my cousin, suicide by cop maybe?

I have to say, that Croc... ahhh... Glock sure looks a lot better after that lawn mower incident... I wonder if it shoots better now too!

Must not have been that guys turn to go... An incident like this would likely make me consider changing profession if I were a cop. I don't envy cops. We don't pay them enough, or appreciate them enough.

Yeah he had to take a few weeks leave. He moved to the gang unit, as if its any less dangerous

I would hope if it had turned out different, you're cousin would've been ok...He was right to draw and fire in the scenario as described. I too am curious to know if it was gun/ammo, and a more specific cause if you could find out (as my main carry guns are Glocks).
