Talk:Glock (Manufacturer): Difference between revisions

I'm conflicted on this page. Even though we need to have Glock represented on the manufacturer pages, This page really offers very little outside of the actual Glock Page. So it appears, at first glance, to be utterly redundant. If only Glock made other items like SMGs or sniper rifle, but they don't. MoviePropMaster2008 03:02, 21 January 2012 (CST) Link title

That's exactly my thinking. Glock make one pistol in different sizes and chambered in different rounds, all of which are grouped together in the Glock page, the Glock manufacturers page is pretty redundant in my eyes. --cool-breeze 09:04, 21 January 2012 (CST)

Personally, I think it could still be helpful as it shows the guns side by side. Glocks are some of the most identifiable guns around but it can be difficult to differentiate between a G17 and a G32 (randomly chosen) if you don't know what to look for. I figure this helps to show them right next to each other. It also organizes them by size which could be useful. I guess I would say as long as it is put together well and not disorganized or unprofessional looking, is there a downside to having the page? I.E. is it absolutely necessary for the site to function? Absolutely not... Could it be beneficial to some users? Quite possibly... Just my 2 cents on the matter. :-) --Zackmann08 11:58, 21 January 2012 (CST)

Just a follow up to my comment above, it reminds me of Commando's AR-15 guide... HERE which I think is just AWESOME! --Zackmann08 11:59, 21 January 2012 (CST)

I think we should have this page because it's tidy. If we're going to have pages for other companies we should have a Glock page as well. --Jcordell 13:03, 21 January 2012 (CST)

I agree, we should have the page if only for technical purposes. Besides, the grouping by size and the years they are produced could be helpful. EDIT: What if we added the Generations it was produced in? The Glock 17 would have 1, 2, 3, and 4, while some might only have Gen 2 or 3 (I have no idea which are produced in what gen I'm not a Glock expert)----JazzBlackBelt-- 18:26, 21 January 2012 (CST)

Also, I'm pretty sure that despite Glock insisting on writing their name in allcaps, since nobody else (gun press, business directories, anyone) refers to them that way, this should be at Glock (Manufacturer) where I put it. Agree / disagree? Evil Tim 13:07, 21 January 2012 (CST)

I initially put it as "GLOCK" because that was how it showed up on their website. Personally, I don't care which way... --Zackmann08 13:16, 21 January 2012 (CST)

I agree with Evil tim. I know what the company wants, but the English I was taught says that Glock is the correct way. GLOCK is simply marketing. Nothing else. We have their logo on the page. That's enough in my opinion.--Jcordell 17:28, 21 January 2012 (CST)

It being the internet, GLOCK wants you to 'shout their name' being in all caps and all........ MoviePropMaster2008

"C" Models

It would be a good idea to add a "Variants" column to note which models have a "C" version. What do you think? Or a "Compensator" column and add "yes" to those which can have it. - bozitojugg3rn4ut 06:00, 22 January 2012 (CST)

I agree, for "C" models and which generation that pistol was made in. For the "C" catagory it could just say Yes or No depending on if that model has a "C" version. Alex T Snow 01:55, 9 February 2012 (CST)
