As we were watching Jeopardy, this evening on our local cable system. There popped up a Glock Commercial. Surprised to see one showing on prime time and on ABC.
Have only seen the Glock commercials on the hunting and outdoor channels.

They might be testing the waters to see what they can get away with the new bunch in charge.

It could also be just local to your cable provider and not necessarily being broadcast nationally by ABC.
I have never seen a Glock commercial on TV.
Targeted advertising.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
There were a handful of Glock ads with R Lee Ermy in them, all featuring a scenario where a crime was stopped by an armed citizen. Maybe outdoor network.
Here the Ad that Aired. Looks to be targeted to to folks getting to the out doors
Me too.

I haven't seen a gun commercial on TV for a very very very long time. They even made NASCAR take off the sponsorship for Remington and others.
I don't have TV.
I figured they (the govt) had banned firearms ads on TV long ago, same as they did cigarette ads back in 1971. If they haven't they will now.

Visited a shop near ATL this past Fri. Guy was logging in new GeeLocks. Looked as if there 20 setting on the counter. Said the factory being local allowed them to get what they wanted rather quickly.
The Henry ones run here once in awhile
