Breaking News: Glock Protests and Blocks the M-17 Contract

Glock has filed a protest  which has stopped the Army’s M-17 contract with Sig Sauer. The Government Accounting Office has  has until June 5th to determine if the protest has merit.

The Glock 19 is in use with U.S. Special Operations troops. The FBI has adopted the Glock but rumors indicate problems with the initial “M” series Glocks which have been withdrawn.

ICE recently adopted the Sig 320 in 9mm as the agency’s new service weapon.
