Glock took the cheapest way out, plain and simple. It cost less to settle out of court than it would cost to fight and win.
I wish it was different, but that's our justice system.
I don't know how this would effect future cases, but I believe it sets a dangerous example. Hopefully if and when it comes up again, the gun makers will fight it. Money isn't the only thing to lose in these cases. If the NRA won't chip in on fighting, maybe we gun owners should.

Settling open the wallet for the next dumbass that comes along. Glock must have felt that they would lose and settled. I wish companies would invest in fighting. When they win, that puts up a big red flag to lawyers and their clients to think twice.
