Corrogated metal "tinhorns" are actually not all that expensive.

Methinks what's actually a better product is the big pre-cast concrete pipes. Heck, they even make 'em in interlocking "cubes", roughly 8 X 8 X 8. Ya just need to figure out a way to get 'em delivered and installed without The Wife knowing what they cost.

Whutsitz called when ya buy 3 conexes and tie 'em end to end for an indoor handgun range? :)

Under circumstances stated, another +1 on the 26.

But, to me anyway, there ain't no such animal as a "Little Glock". There are some that are smaller than others, but they are all still "bricky" compared to designs like the Kahrs. And yea, I've carried 'em all, including the "Slimline" Model 36 - just a single stack "brick"!

Quote/Question: "Does anyone have any idea what's behind the Glock numbering scheme? Or is there even a scheme? Is it just random?"

Seems like that I picked up somewhere that the original Glock 17 was their 17'th product (military shovels and such, but no prior firearms). The same size, but full-auto Glock 18 was next. Glock 19 (9mm compact) was introduced next, etc. They were up to Model number 23 when I got one (.40 compact) for birthday in late 1990 and are now up into the high thirties.

FWIW, they also make .380s, which are typically unavalable in this country.
