Methinks the Glock itself has been modified too.
No one's finger is that fast.

Took a Glock instructor course. They did a demo for us to show how dependable the pistol was. We loaded every mag there was, can't remember how many thousands of rounds there were. There were 12 of us in the class, we each took 20 mags at a time (15 rounds per mag) and emptied them as fast as we could, dropped the gun in a bucket of water, and passed it off to the next guy. We kept cycling through like this for 37 minutes (was all the mags we had). At the end your fingers had blisters and hands were cramping. Only a single pistol was used for this torture test. The thing never misfired or jammed for 37 minutes. Some of these guys were very fast, not quite like the video cause you have to keep changing mags, but you weren't taking the time to aim at anything.
Glock hammer forges their barrels around a mould to produce oblong (dunno if thats a word) rifling, instead of cutting the rifling into the steel. Metal is stronger, seals around the bullet better, and doesn't foul. The bullet actually gets more velocity and energy cause there's less friction in the barrel.
