Guy buried his Glock 21 for 2 years, washed it off with a garden hose, then put it through a 500 stress test with his buddies with no cleaning. Its a shame I don't find them comfortable to shoot.

Reminded me of the clown car at the circus.

Firearms today should be able to pass that test (XD, M&P, 24/7 OSS and the likes).

That's the guy that runs ADCO. Very helpful dude. He's also got another video on there where he throws a glock out of an airplane.

Here a video of glock being fired 1000 times in 14 minutes:

Some piece actually breaks off towards the end, but it still kept running

Glock, Glock, Glock

 

Enough of these damn Glocks!

 

I guess these things sell themselves.

Not to me they won't!

Ask anyone here who knows me....I LOVE 1911's - a well set up 1911 is my favorite platform for a pistol.

That said, I like glocks a lot.

I have a Glock 19 with over 5200 rounds through the pipe and it has not been cleaned since the day I bought it. Rounds were a mix of Remmy UMC, WWB, Magtech, and my favorite, the Federal HST's.

 

I read all of those torture tests online and decided that since this 19 is just a toy, as I prefer larger cals, I wanted to see how long I could abuse this thing.

I will let you know when something breaks or I get a jam of any kind. I usually put 200-300 through it as fast as I can and throw it back in the safe when I get home. If I get to 10,000 before cleaning and lubing without a malfunction, I will clean it up and try to really destroy it like the fellow on Theprepared.com did to his G21

 

After 3500 rounds without a hiccup, I drank a gallon of the Glock Kool Aid and proceeded to buy a G21SF, a G30SF, and a G36. I have 900 to 1000 rounds through each by now and not one problem.

I clean and lube those regularly.

 

The reliability of this platform is very comforting and what has made me an EX-glock hater.

 

The only guns besides that G19 I have gone malfunction free with for more than 1000 rounds without cleaning or lubing for my testing ( I use that word VERY loosely) are a Wilson Combat CQB, a Sig P226 9mm, and a Ruger GP100.

The Sig started having FTF's after 1100 or so - It was filthy - but still beautiful.

The Wilson Combat went just under 2400 rounds before I had a Failure to Feed.

Finished up that box and 2 more that day but since I had a FTF, it was time to clean it and set it's normal wear reliability tolerance limit at a solid 2000 rounds of 230 grain 45 ACP.

The Ruger got cleaned because it was years since the last cleaning. 1100 rounds total of 38 and 357 before I cleaned it.

 

If it is that uncomfortable for u to shoot glocks, you could always get a robar reduction to give the Glock a better grip angle.

I would buy a glock but it would be like number 4 on my list. That was an impressive video though. Nice post.
