Wow, It's a nice pistol, but how'd they beat out Glock? The serialized trigger group bit is IMHO true innovation.
It beat out Glock because the Glock wasn't modular in the way the spec was written.
Yup. Imagine that: a system designed to meet the requirements of the buyer beat a system not so designed.
The modularity afforded by such a design is a benefit to the consumer market as well.
Agreed. It will be interesting to see how it plays out. The ability to inexpensively obtain two slides--one with optics and one without--would be nice, as would the ability to use the same trigger housing in multiple frames, assuming the trigger pull would not be affected by a change in frame.
