Tara Judah
From Iraq to Chi-raq, the story of the most popular weapon of choice anywhere in the world is of the Austrian Glock. It’s first large scale take up by the Austrian police and military in the early 1980s, for its safety and reliability, set the Glock pistol’s success story in motion. It is now the proverbial weapon of choice for everyone from US law enforcement and street gangs to IS jihadists and was even coveted by Saddam Hussein.
