The result should come as no surprise: The GLOCK system makes See Page 4 shooting the high-performance .45 Auto a pleasure, while the reduced width of the finger-grooved grip frame, ambidextrous thumb rests and extended magazine floor plate make handling the G36 a breeze! “The G36 is incredibly controllable, even given its small size,” said Chris Edwards, GLOCK’s Director of Training. “It’s notably accurate and should be especially easy to conceal under any condition.” Edwards went on to remark that the gun has the inherent accuracy of the G30 and will come to be considered the premier sub-compact .45 auto pistol. Designed with a barrel length of 3.78 inches, an overall length of 6.77 inches and an overall height (including magazine) of 4.76 inches, the G36 is identical in profile to the popular G30.

Both departments are armed with GLOCK .40 caliber safe- action pistols. The officers shot at both paper targets and metal plates.

In preparation for GSSF matches, I have constructed a range in the woods behind my house D. R. on which I have accurately reproduced the 5-7-9 and Texas GLOCK the Plates stages. I simply photocopied 8'' black circles to use as the targets—since that is the 10 ring size, if I hit the black I am shooting a perfect score. Anyway, I have been practicing all winter, snowshoe- ing the half mile out to the range almost every day to shoot one string of each stage. Many times, the temperatures were well below freezing, and sometimes below zero. When I came inside, my G17L would become compltely wet with condensation. In all those sessions it never failed to work flawlessly, although I can’t say the same for my often frozen hands and timer! Further, no harm to my GLOCK has ever resulted from the radical temperature changes and soaking condensation. In addi- tion to the range practices, I dry fire indoors 200 times daily, and not once have I had a problem with the gun I have to say that I am saddened to hear that you have dropped the G17L from your product line. I am glad I have one, and would buy another in a second if the opportunity presented itself. I look forward to putting all this off-season training to the test at the Topton, Pennsylvania GSSF match. Now if I can only shoot my practice times under match pressure…

I have attended matches in Indianapolis and Lexington, and found your staff and the hosts to have the impeccable manners to go along with their impeccable safety records. In addition to the GLOCK matches, I also shoot in the IDPA using a stock G19 with factory sights. I was able to place second in the sharpshooter division in the Illinois state finals.
