Glock 21: The Ultimate Handgun for the Military, Self Defense and Hunters?

Kyle Mizokami at The National Interest - 3 hours ago
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, * We have all the info. In 1990, the world of the .45 ACP cartridge was turned upside down. For more than seventy years the domain of the Colt 1911, a new Austrian handgun, dared to use the venerable old bullet in a modern design that included, of all things, a polymer frame. Glock’s adoption of the .45 ACP in the new Glock 21 likely saved the cartridge—and all of its users—from obscurity, and made the big bore cartridge a mandatory offering for a new generation of handguns.
