Yeah, I think that the generally uninformed morons who report the news may not even be aware that Glock is in fact a brand and not a type of gun. They probably think that the only type of guns that exist are six shooters, machine guns and Glocks. The popularity of Glock has created a situation where it is only one step from being the Kleenex of handguns.
This sort of name recognition nonsense is part of the reason why we can't legally own certain weapons here in MA--because the name SOUNDS scary. "OOOoo AK-47, like in Rambo!"
