Well, at this point, I don't think the caliber and make of the weapon is very important. |

You need special cold-loaded sub-sonic .223 ammo to make it silent. |

Reloading a semi auto handgun takes 3 seconds. How does that make the "popo" look bad? |

3 seconds would be quite slow, actually. (n/t) |

With practice you can swap magazines far faster than 3 seconds. (n/t) |

That doesn't have anything to do with it being a Glock, though. |

My point is just that this was an ordinary civilian pistol, not some out-of-the-mainstream racegun. |

FWIW, that's a Glock 17 on the top right, not a G19. They're similar, but the G19 is smaller. |
