This is too good to pass up the opportunity. The question I have is; does the Glock have a remote control? I was thinking that with the remote you could position the gun to shoot the f'n lock out of the dash. Although I would first review the Warren Report. The one bullet theory! I have been sitting in my car praticing with the projectrey angle. At this "point" I would not suggest that you sit in the driver’s seat. I glove box opens every time, but the driver’s seat looks like a crossed drilled rotor!
Now the advice, try lifting and moving the door side to side when attempting to open. Good luck and take the batteries out of the remote when working around the glove box!

Folks,

Okay, so I'm back from my trip and now want to unpack the car. The glovebox is locked so I find out that the the trunk is too, by virtue of the glovebox lock; No problem.

Here's the problem: After I turn the key (yes, the master-key) to the "unlock" position, the trunk unlocks and opens, but not the glovebox. I can not open the glovebox for anything. The key and lock turn fine, and it will still lock and unlock the trunk, but zero luck with the glovebox lid actually opening!

Please help me out here. I have a $600 Glock (what else would it be?!) in there, that I would love to shoot again.

Is it just busted, or is this another cool, whizz-bang feature that I'm missing?

Thanks,

Mike T.
