Take that quote, remove the nonsense about twist rate, and replace conventional with polygonal and....you've got what everybody's been saying regarding polygonal in comparison to conventional rifling.It also uses conventional rifling with a reduced twist rate which increases barrel life and reduces recoiling torque.
This in an age where manufacturers typically warranty their pistols for 10,000 rounds.
When governmental entities (fed, state, local) purchase pistols the standard warranty range is 10,000 rounds. Glock, Sig, and H&K warranty their pitols for 10,000 to the US federal gov't, for example. Subsequently, every 10,000 rounds I turn in my pistol for a new one whether I need to or not.
I've been issued a Glocks, Sigs, and HKs over the years. I ran one past the 10,000 round mark that was replaced with a NIB pistol.
awfully strange to SOME ANYWAY that every gun is compared to GLOCKS. not kel tecs or Bersa's.
Actually its not the ignorant masses, the glock has been tested and proven to take the abuse. Its the other guns that have "never given one IOTA of evidence" to support that they can withstand it. I know you like to flamebait anyone that says glock so lets not ruin another thread because you saw it contains the "G" word in it.They feed on the ignorant who ASSUME that because Glock does it no one else can but they have never given one IOTA of evidence to support that.

"What government agency did you work for that let you shoot a pistol that much?"
One which frowns on confirming such things on a public forum.
So... is it GLOCK'S JOB to demonstrate the average durability of THE COMPETITION???
I am not sure I understand what top secret information you are giving away just by stating the name of the agency that allows that much shooting. Is it one we have heard of? Or something unknown to simple civilians?
Don't be ridiculous. I"ll try to make it very simple for you. The torture tests are like Toyota driving a truck up a steep hill and then saying, "Buy OUR truck because OUR truck can drive up this hill" but the fact is that their competition could drive right up the same hill too. They rely on the fact you aren't going to have enough independent thought to put that fact together. if they were that confident about their product why not do it back to back to show the others fail when yours doesn't? The answer is that most quality handguns are capable of the same things.
