Knott's Halloween Haunt
Knott's Berry Farm in Anaheim, CA is known for it's Halloween theme and this year they added Special Ops: Infected
Participants will run around 6 acre lot lead by a leader and get to shoot prop guns with camera that will count how many zombies you got. When zombies get within 10 feet, you are "bitten" It's not just a run and gun and the event will have a plot.
According to the LA Times,
...enlistees will be tasked with completing a series of objectives with operation code names like Bulldoze, Derail and Tunnel Rat. Up to six squadrons will be in Camp Snoopy at any one time, hunting for zombies hiding inside buildings, under bridges and behind fences.
This seems to be a bit more intensive than Universal Studios: Japan's limited run Biohazard: The Real attraction.

GNB: Glock was not the first
There are some incorrect things about some of Glock's features being the first of its kind.
1. The first polymer frame pistol - The first commercial polymer frame pistol that had some success was H&K's VP 70. It was a bit futuristic design coupled with a heavy trigger pull which ultimately sealed its fate. Ironically when Gaston Glock first made his pistol he contacted H&K to see if they are interested in making the Glock 17.
2. The first trigger safety - The trigger safety for Glock pistols was something when it came out, but the idea was already put in to production in 1880s by Iver Johnson's .32 caliber pistols. You can see photos from icollector or Armslist
What Glock brought to the market is an affordable semi-auto that is reasonably priced and reliable. When many police departments were switching their standard issue pistol from revolvers to semi-autos, Glock was the best choice considering many factors.
Glock is not going away anytime soon despite some serious competition, and has taken over the place of Browning Hi-powers. It was not the first in many things but it does a lot of things well and that's something to be proud of.

Glock working on single-stack 9mm?
Glock 42 has been a big hit and GlockStore's Lenny Magill mention in this video that Glock is working on a single-stack 9mm - around 1:20
When G42 came out GNB wondered if it was a bit of test bed for a single-stack 9mm and the rumor just doesn't seem to die. It would make sense from sales perspective as many G42 has been sold and now people will buy the long-awaited single-stack 9mm version.
