Colion Noir, an established firearms expert, analytically assesses the practicality of a legally converted full-auto Glock 17 for concealed carry and self-defense. Through rigorous testing, including reliability checks with extended magazines, accuracy assessments at 10 yards, and multiple target engagements timed against semi-auto fire, Noir demonstrates that while the full-auto conversion offers a satisfying rate of fire, its practical application is severely limited. He highlights issues with recoil management, accuracy degradation due to rapid fire, and increased caution during re-holstering, ultimately concluding that semi-automatic Glocks remain the superior choice for defensive purposes due to the 'compounding interest of mistakes' inherent in full-auto fire.

He also highlights advancements allowing WMLs on subcompacts as a net positive for personal safety.
