Well this is a first...a driver saw a small "black object" flying through the air while traveling on I-5. When the driver stopped for gas (about 18 miles later), they saw this stuck in their bumper. Troopers recovered the firearm and turned it over to Lakewood WA Police Department.

Well, that's interesting, just goes to show you how worthless modern bumper's are.

So you see: when people are not allowed to shoot anymore, they start throwing things... and I've always believed that down under they where specialized in throwing things in a way that they return...
or is this art also lost or forbiten?

A HI-Point would have totaled that car. Looks like a Springfield Armory XD Mod 2 Sub compact.

Yep.
Look at Vince's first image, with some kind of catch & slot that runs right across the top of the grip. |

Not a Glock, note the grip safety that is not found on a Glock. Springfield XD maybe. I wonder why the driver did not keep the gun. After all, finders, keepers. All the best...
