I've got 3 Glocks (17, 26 & 30) and a HK USP (45ACP) and like them all. Glocks and HKs are both great guns, but I like the simplicity of the Glock better.

I'm a Glock armorer (or at least I took the class and have the certificate) and I also like fact that I can completely disassemble the any Glock in a couple of minutes (less if I'm being timed) with just one tool and then simply swap out or change whatever part is broken (very unlikely) or that I want to replace. Working on an HK and anyother gun would require much greater training and skill.

As for the Chief, they teach you in every basic handgun safety course to treat every gun like it's loaded -- especially if it's an automatic and the slide is closed and you can't see into the chamber. If you're familiar with Glocks, you CAN determine if there's a round in the chamber by running your finger over the extractor. If the extractor is NOT flush with the slide, it's loaded, but it's obviously always better to remove the mag and rack the slide back to eject a round (if one's in there) and lock the slide back so that you KNOW that it's unloaded, especially when you're teaching a CCW course.

Like someone already said, he was a moron! [Note: someone needs to design a "shaking head in disgust" icon.]
