    Glock - First, Second, Third Generation?

    Okay, never thought I'd say this, but I've been going to local gunshops and asking to handle Glocks. Somehow, over the past couple of decades, they stopped looking so weird to me now.

    I was thrilled when my wife agreed to go to a new local indoor range with me this weekend. She is actually talking about taking a CCW class and I wanted it to be a positive experience. Not quite... We go in with double hearing protection (both foam plugs and headsets) I loaded my S&W 3913...
