Default Got Plastic??????

While Gaston Glock was still making curtain rods! (no joke) Heckler and Koch introduced the first polymer framed pistol. The H&K VP70 18+1, 9mm came in two models a Z civi and M military, The M version came with a stock/holster and was capable of firing three shot bursts.The VP70 was introduced 12 years before Gaston designed or produced the Glock 17. Yes, I do own plastic guns. Thought y'all may find this interesting.

It needs to go in the recycle bin, IMHO

I don't think I've ever seen a trigger cut that deep. I wouldn't call it a pretty pistol by any means, but it's so unique it's actually kinda cool. Thanks for sharing.
