Frustrated by an increase in petty crime, residents of an Oregon neighborhood have decided to arm themselves instead of calling the police.

Residents of a Jennings Lodge neighborhood in Clackamas county, Ore., have put up fliers advertising their new policy, calling themselves the 'Glock Block', according to KOIN News.

'This is a Glock Block,' the fliers read. 'We don't call 911.'

According to the local (KGW Channel 8) newscast last night, it’s just one woman that has put the sign in her window. She gave out signs to her neighbors, but none have displayed them yet. So the headline that it’s the whole neighborhood is totally off.

More neighbor”hoods” need to do this. Make for a lot of “politeness”

“Glock Block.”

Catchy. I like it.
Too bad I’m a Springfield man, though.

Glock Block? Really? Well whatever blows your skirt up.

I’d rather live on a 1911 block or SAA Block. or a browning high power block or a s&w K frame or L frame block, or a Ruger Blackhawk or Redhawk block. Or a sig or beretta block. Even a Walther P 38 or PPK block.

Don’t shoot yourself in the foot with that Glockenspeil.

Ermey is making money. He is in fact a 1911 fan and a Harley fan. But glock and victory motorcycles, brought dump trucks full of money to his house and dumped it in his driveway. GOD BLESS CAPITALISM.

My Dan Wesson Valor is one of my favorites of the five 1911s in my safe.

In my safeI have but one 1943 circa bone stock Remingon Rand. My son keeps a Colt remake of the military 1911a1 that came out around 2001(even has the us property logo on it like my Remington Rand).

It seems Remington, Ruger, Smith and Wesson and everyone else makes a 1911. Amazing how popular a 102 year old antique design is, and how foolproof a design at that.

Then again I find revolvers to often be my go to gun. So many guns, so little time.

I didn’t realize he rode. Outstanding. Maybe I’ll see him on the road someday.
