The glock haters will love this.Sounds to me like the barrel has some kinda blockage.Maybe it had a plug in it or something.The report said that was the first time ever firing that weapon maybe he should have checked the barrel.

it will be hard to find out if it was bad ammuntion or a flawed gun part.

 

[robbran144]

There was a story like this not too long ago but I think it involved the .45 gap glocks

 

[Armed-N-Ready]

Glocks always go boom.

My Glocks always goo boom when I pull the trigger. I know the Glock bashers are gonna love this one. I guess guns never blew up before the Glock. Maybe we hear about it so much because there are so many out there. You gotta admit, there weren't as many car accidents until that D@mn Ford came out with his model T.

feel for the cop

i own a glock so i can say this .if glock owners weren't so quick to point out the misgivings of others guns other gun owners would not get their jollies at every glock kb.all guns can go kaboom.even my g17

 

[g+16]

I don't care if it was a glock or a colt! A L.E.O. was wounded, if it happens to him it can happen to you, find out WHY?

 

[drgnrobo]

Id like to know the type of ammo myself & if the officer was using some type of handload in any instance this will be criticized by the non glock crowd,I hope there is a follow up on the cause

 

[TheLoneRaider]

A lead +p bullet would make a kb combo.

 

[POTI]

45 GAP is a round I just don't care for. Is the 21 a GAP pistol?

 

[masterblaster-c]

ouch, I hope the cop is gonna be alright.....I'm with the rest of you, I would like to know WHY! I like my hands and, I like shooting my Glock.

I wonder if it was a round that had been chambered too many times?

No, the 21 is 45 acp. The .45GAPs are 37, 38, & 39.

Will this cause a kaboom?

 

[Redemption]

Reloads? if they were glocked once before. Usually it is a kaboom and not a barrel blow when they let go for this reason.

 

[infidel]

Great, the thread about the Colt AR blowing out a few days ago, now this! Why is it that I try to buy quality firearms and they all.......oh yeah, mine have never had one malfunction at all ever that wasn't due to ammunition. It's unfortunate that these things happen, but the day somebody shows me a perfect handgun, I will show you a fool.

 

[BloodEclipse]

Will this cause a kaboom?

If the bullet gets seated too deeply into the case it can. Creates too much pressure.
