Making Glocks in the United States is a good thing - and worthy of optimism.
Some years ago there were also concerns expressed about the quality of Beretta pistols being manufactured in the U.S. as opposed to those originally produced in Italy. One rarely hears that sentiment anymore.
I have both Italian and U.S. Beretta pistols and both are excellent - in every regard.
I feel that the U.S. / Austria Glock situation will be much the same.
Please correct me if I am in error, but didn't U.S. made Beretta M9 pistols (AKA the Beretta 92) have a metallurgical defect wherein the slides would crystallize and crack after about 5,000 rounds, sending the rear portion of the slide backward into the shooters skull causing considerable injury?
