Found this on www.glock-doc.com ! Thought it was pretty neat. Also pasted the wording from it.

Two Glock 18's at the same time: Full-auto, with shoulder stocks. The one on the left has a Federal ported barrel in it, so if you were wondering about Federal's quality, now you know.

Those aren't Glock 18s... those are Glock 17s which have been converted to F/A using disconnector interruptors on the rear of the slides.

G18s have a selector switch on the sides of the slide (similar to the safety on a Beretta).

Still very cool though...

There's always gotta be one........

j/k, bro.

If you've never shot a full-auto Glock, it's something you should, at least once in your life. There's little that compares to holding a pistol in your hands and ripping off a long burst of fire. Hmmmm, it's great. I probably should have kept mine, but at least I still get to shoot it whenever I visit On Target.

The website said G18, not me. Just going by what the website said.

It's interesting that the gun which has the compensated barrel seems to be experiencing less muzzle-rise... could just be the photo though.

F/A pistols are indeed a hoot.

Didn't mean to come off like a smarty-pants, it was just the first thing I noticed, sorry... I'm surprised that the website didn't make that distinction.

That's ok, we still like ya. Smarty-pants and all.

There's no doubt the compensated barrel is experiencing less muzzle rise. That's the point of compensating a barrel in the first place. For defensive uses, I'm not a big fan of compensated barrels, as I fear the increased flash might lead to temporary night-blindness. For competition guns, or play toys like F/A Glocks, I can definitely see their value.

Agreed.

Also yearning to try a f/a pistol (or two!) one day...

The range where I took my HCP class had a F/A for rent! But I couldnt see spending $10 to rent it for less than a minute of shooting!
