Didn't take long for this thread to go sideways...

Back on topic - Burmese Glock has a nicer ring to it.

I smell a lawsuit coming.....

I was just about to ask about that. I remember Glock taking Smith to court or threatening to when the Sygma was introduced back around 94.

Can't believe more cops weren't killed using those plastic craptastic Sigmas.

Not a licensed copy.

I can’t find anywhere in that article where it says that it is, or isn’t, a licensed copy.

Second paragraph asserts that it is a copy. China and Israel are specifically mentioned. Those countries are significant because, although the article doesn't address it, there's an arms embargo against Myanmar that those two countries have decided to ignore. Glock did not participate in the development of this pistol.

They can keep that thing. I’d like to get one of their old Hi-Powers for sure!
