Well, it does say, Test Fire Glock Firearms....

So you will get to shoot some of them, among other things...

“Wait they would pay me to do that”
???

As I tell my friends at work, they don't pay me for the parts I like. They pay me for the BS stuff I tolerate and have to do on the regular.

In this case, shooting is free. Paperwork is probably not worth the hourly wage they are paying...

Only a 7 hour commute one way! I can make it happen...

5:30 A.M. starting time is a deal breaker for me.

Do what you love and you'll never work a day in your life.

OR

Never turn your hobby into a job.

Hmmm...

I doubt that loading mags and firing five rounds into a bucket trap is as glamorous as it sounds.

Agree. Before they escaped from the People's Republik of IL, the LMT plant was in IL and they test fired ARs at the Milan Rifle Club. I used to see them at the benchrest range with all kinds of neat guns, they let me take all the pictures I wanted to. I never asked, but I'm guessing the excitement wore off.

Well yeah, they’re not gonna lead with paperwork, sweeping, piece counting… They do want applicants after all.
