You will buy a Glock

Well I thought I was done with Glock, at least for awhile. I just got bored with them... but yesterday this Gen 5 MOS, G19 crept into my safe.

Those photos showing the laser engravings are something else. Amazing what the imagination can do.

My favorite is the Polynesian style.

I viewed the darkalliance website. Can't believe the creations they have done (view gallery).

There is a page I follow on Instagram, shark coast tactical. They have a brick and mortar store, and they also do laser engraving, among other things. Pretty amazing work, check out their website or their Instagram page.

Sex offenders can not be rehabilitated. It's in their wiring. They should not be released back into the general public. On the other hand they should not be warehoused either. I think they should be executed.....Spectre

When someone tries to kill you, it doesn't matter how they are doing it. You're in mortal danger, and it's time to try to kill them back.

Kill every last one of these goddamned animals. We need a president with balls. We need leadership. We should be carpet bombing these barbarians wherever we find them, and we should be looking for them 24/7. We have to unleash Hell upon them. They understand nothing but death, so death is what we should bring them, wholesale.... Para

I left "practical" behind many years ago. It was covered with my first Glock 19. (Fredward)

If I could only have one, it would be the Glock 45..
Followed by a Glock 43X..

I guess I'm the last hold out and have no plans to change.... besides the stupid weird double trigger that I still can't figure out how it is a safety... just about every Glock I've seen just does not appeal to me..

I know one event should not mean much, but the one time I shot a Glock 19* (I think it was) I limp wristed it repeatedly.... I've shot some others over time and they were okay...and I mean, just okay. I do own a Ruger LC9, carried it for a few years, and a Sig P320 with both a laser and Romeo sight... just for fun.... of course both are striker fired and they are also 'okay'.. but what I still fall back on is DA/SA. Must be me, too old to move, in more ways than one.

Then again, I think the best looking handgun I own is a copy of a 1860 Army Colt.

*I shot a Glock 18 a few years back, now that was a waste of good ammo.

Ohmygawd, this thing is way better to shoot than my 1911. Oh no...

It's all in the physics. With some deliberation the answer will reveal itself. By that time, you too will become one of the collective.

No, it doesn't mean anything at all. No one gives a shit, beyond wondering why you're trolling this thread, and this isnt the first trolling you've done lately in this forum, and don't ask me what I'm talking about.

Well, yeah ... but I'm not as inGlock-fected as some guys are ...

Gen2, 19 and 26, Gen 3 23 and ... a Gen1(?) 43

But you didn't warn that I (we) might buy several!

If you really want something you'll find a way ...
... if you don't you'll find an excuse.

I'm really not a "kid" anymore ... but I haven't grown up yet either

My progression was somewhat similar to what MidWesternBoy said. I thought for years that Sigs and 1911's were the only frames that fit my hand just right, damn, was I full of shit. Just put money down on a G40 MOS 10mm boomstick to add to the collection. You know, for bears, aliens, zombie hogs & shit prancing in the backyard after dark. Jus'sayin'.

I just spotted a used 34MOS for good price at lgs.
Digging through my safe now to see what I can trade.
Life comes at you fast. Lol.
The upside is, they are so dang easy to work on!

Yeah, but that makes them too easy to customize. Like a Lego set with bullets. That is where I get lead astray. I wonder if they made a Glock in...

I like Glocks. My lil 42 works great with the new black box Winchester Ranger T Series. I run mine dirty without field strip and cleaning and its very reliable.

Any questions about it just ask me.
