so... i was amazed. i was talking to a LEO at one of the high schools in the local york area... i saw his Glock 22 with nigh sights and asked him "Is that a Glock 22?"

his reply was "No, its a 40 cal"

i walked away in, feeling very bad for him.

i know that a lot of Police officers are not "gun nuts" but i feel that if you are going to rely on something that could possibly save a life, including your own, you should know EVERY LITTLE THING ABOUT IT!!!

WOW!!!

Imagine if you asked for a Glock 22 what the look on his face would be when he saw the size of the bullets for it. "That's the biggest .22cal round I've ever seen in my life!"
