You are absolutely correct that the term exist for a reason. The term "Glock leg" was created as a fear campaign by Glock's competitors when Glock took the police industry by storm.jsk wrote:There's a reason the term "glock leg" exists; I've never heard it called "1911 leg". :)
There is no proof whatsoever that on average Glock owners experience more NDs than owners of any other brand. I have seen just as many examples of injuries with 1911s as I have Glocks despite the fact that Glocks see many more times the service hours on daily basis.
