Ya gotta love it. In CA the badguy would probably sue the victims (and win), plus have them arrested for forced slavery or something stupid like that. CA has lots of problems...

So true OBG, I bet the same would happen here in the Peoples Republic of MA as well.

BTW, never thought a Glock could be used as an automatic toilet bowl cleaner.

Not being a Glock fan, as far as I am concerned, that is all they are good for smile smile smile

Okay, I know they aren't for everyone, just like those old model 1911s didn't meet the needs of the masses either. To each his own.

I do like my Glock, though. Old reliable has been going strong for 12 years now.

Still, the idea of multi tasking a Glock like this is a bit humorous.

I am glad that the news report didn't make the burgler out to be the victim who needs therapy by the oppressive homeowner who, at gun-point, forced him to do physical work.

Sorry for the delay in response. I love my Glock. What is it that you don't like about them? I do appreciate a good old .45 as well though.

"...What is it that you don't like about them?..."

Mainly grip angle (it is totally different than any other semi-autos I have shot, does not point well for me at all), and trigger. That little safety flap, plus just the shape of the tip of the trigger, makes the end of my trigger finger sore as the devil after very few shots...

+1 for Glocks. They may not be a classic like the 1911 but they keep on shooting.
