Fully agree, was just feeling awnry that day. Glock marketed the hell out of itselt, and the product lived up to the hype.I stand corrected. But, the fact is HK didn't put polymer pistols in the dominant market position they enjoy today. Glock's deep discounts to law enforcement agencies got that ball rolling. Without Glock, you would not have the M&Ps, XDs, etc.
Although I'm in now way realistically interested in the shield, lets hope it lives up to the hype and can be justified being called a M&P
