The Glock and similar guns do require extra care and training - if you pull the trigger and there's a round in the chamber, the gun WILL fire. ) A lot of folks criticize the Glock for "not having any safety." While the Glock in fact has THREE safeties, they are all passive - designed to prevent the gun from accidentally going off without the trigger being depressed.

Smaller pistols, designed around a 10-round magazine and ideal for concealed carry, became the dominant trend for many handgun manufacturers by the mid-1990s.
Suddenly, the massive "Wondernines" built around high-capacity magazines seemed less efficient as 10-round guns. On the other hand, 1994 saw the passage of Bill Clinton's "Crime Bill," which limited the capacity of all newly manufactured firearm magazines to 10 or fewer rounds.
