I guess you guys left Gaston Glock out of the designer of one gun only. Actually he was an engineer and manufacturer. At least Kalashnikov was with the military.

In the aftershow, I think it was in the aftershow, CF brought up Glock for multiple firearms in design. Grant was quick to point out that it was the same design but just different calibers.

Alright, thanks. I should have stayed a little bit more. Anyway, it was a great show. Looking forward to AJ praises on the 1911's.Doc Wesson wrote:In the aftershow, I think it was in the aftershow, CF brought up Glock for multiple firearms in design.

Nope. I thought that Kalashnikov designed 150 firearms. Grant correctly pointed out that ol' Mikhail largely designed the same firearm 150 times.
I don't think Gaston actually designed the Glock. IIRC, the designer Wilhelm Bubits went on to engineer a Steyr(?), the Caracal(?) and a Walther(?). My Google-Fu is weak today.

I stand corrected.
For some reason I remember us mentioning Glock. Maybe not
