Back in the 90's I knew the northwest division director for Glock USA. He lived in Oregon. He legally owned on of the Glock 18's. Here is a little tid bit of info that not many people know. Glock Austria imported to Glock USA only 150, 18 guns in the entire continent of north America. I was lucky enough to shoot his at the Albany Rifle and Pistol Club in central Oregon. The rate of fire is unreal. About 1,200 rounds a minute. You could empty a 30 round mag in a couple of seconds. The ONLY way to own one of these today in the US, is you either have to be a class III dealer or a class III manufacturer. Private ownership was banned in 1986. The guns that were out there then are all grandfathered in. You can still buy from a private owner if you can clear the background but you are going to pay unreal numbers to get a private owned full auto firearm.
