And the new FBI handgun is.......

[milton]

It does? Do you even have a photo of one?

Just as a general point of interest, there is a lot of information in the world that doesn't make it to the Internet. Given Glock's history of using Non-Disclosure Agreements for both employees and for T&E, it would be more logical to assume the pistol exists, has been vetted via testing, but that those involved are under NDA until it appears publicly.

It exists.

I can only assure you verbally that it exists. Take it for what you will.

Based on today's announcements, I expected it to be called the 'Hillary'. All bark and no bite, as it shoots blanks at a felon with intent to not harm whatsoever.

Oh the "Hillary" will shoot bullets... but they apparently won't have any malicious intent that can be proven by a competent prosecutor

 

[roscott]

I was happy and pleased with this thread until you hooligans had to bring current events and Hillary into the discussion.

I've talked with a couple of people that have had a "hands on" experience with it but failed to ask if does or does not have finger grooves. Anyone want to speculate on that?

It does not have finger grooves.

 

[Hawkeye]

It does not have finger grooves.

Is that a good thing or a bad thing?

 

[in625shooter]

Is that a good thing or a bad thing?

For most yes, for some no.

 

[Denny347]

My hands have always fit the finger grooves so I don't care either way.

 

[BehindBlueI's]

Is that a good thing or a bad thing?

For me, probably a good thing. My fingers are crooked but the grooves are straight. It doesn't matter a ton, but is uncomfortable on a long range day.

Ow. My feels.

I always knew BBI was crooked. I just never figured it was his fingers.

 

[Fargo]

I hear BBI has crooked fingers from sitting on his hand till numb... Something about a stranger or something.

 

[RobbyMaQ]

I'm just amazed he has a semi auto. Dude wears a Fedora for cripes sakes!

 

[LCSOSgt11]

With the latest stumble by Director Comey, I would be surprised if the new pistols were not rendered inoperable.

Well, 1911s are well suited to fedora wearing...but I do like the revolvers.

That's what I'm missing.

Well, remember how deadly McGarrett (Jack Lord) was with his detective special. I saw him win several shootouts where his opponent had a rifle. He often made shots over 35 to 40 yds

So I figure BBI just isn't allowed to carry a revolver because it wouldn't be sporting

Oh please don't get me wrong. I don't doubt BBI's 'deadliness' whatsoever. I wouldn't say he's Jerry Miculek by any stretch, but as close as any 'crooked cop' could get! <-- see what I did there?

Also he's mentioned 1911's are semi auto... so there's THAT.

 

[BehindBlueI's]

I'm allowed to carry a revolver. I'm qualified on a 2", 3", and 4" .357. I carry the 2" as a back up.

I don't feel undergunned with one at all. I've just gotten to the point I shoot my Sigs better in every meaningful way.

Jerry isn't human. He's a robot sent from the future to embarrass the rest of us.
