Happy Birthday

Samuel Colt and Gaston Glock share a birthday. I did not know that.

    In many respects, Glock’s commercial success is more remarkable than Colt’s in their respective inceptions because Colt had no competitors, and had patent protection for the the heart of the action — indexing and locking the cylinder while cocking the hammer.

    God made man. Gaston Glock made him plastic.

  3. Fred Says:

    It’s my birthday too!

    Happy Birthday Fred!

    And nk, don’t forget, the ’17 was Gaston’s first model. Not bad for a guy who started out making curtain rods.

    And those are also shared with my now 13 year old son, Ryan!! Happy Birthday to him! Might have to buy him one of each!!

    Not to to take anything away from Sam Colt. He was an artistic as well as a marketing genius. If I could get everyone to shoot front-loading soft charcoal only, my handguns would be .51 Navies.

    I’ll bet you can’t guess my astrological sign.

    Daniel Chester French, George Takei, Adolf Hitler. Dude, it’s like, mystical. Birthday says it all.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
