Hi Tim Nagel,

No I've not spoken with him in the last few weeks. I'll leave him a message and see what he knows.

IIRC Glock 21 was what they were going to go to if S&W wouldn't produce the 4566TSW's.

The M&P 45 with it's lousy trigger and poor QA/QC was eliminated from consideration early in the process. Despite the internet hype, the M&P pistol is best loved by the bean counters - not the troops.

Glock reportedly came in way under the M&P bid with their tupperware gun. Six figures under was what I'm told.

I'm not a Glock fan. I have no use for striker fired plastic guns in general. That said, I would be VERY reluctant to stake my life on a Glock 21. Too much history of that model occasionally failing to go bang. Design flaw that evidently NOBODY talks about. Regards 18DAI.
