That has the new Battleworn coating, saw one at my LGS last night, even the big G is into marketing different coatings.




Legal Manufacturing’s latest offering is the NIB BATTLEWORN® Mod 2 Glock® 21. The factory Glock® is modified to improve the functionality, balance and assist with weapon manipulation. The factory Glock® 21 slide is plated in Legal Manufacturing’s patent pending NIB BATTLEWORN®. The factory Glock® 21 barrel and additional Lone Wolf Alpha threaded barrel and cap are plated in a matte variant of Legal Manufacturing, LLC’s proprietary NIB ONE®. Legal Manufacturing’s nickel boron plated surfaces reduce the operating friction of the firearm due to the low static coefficient of friction without the need for lubrication. Legal Manufacturing has made the additional modifications to enhance the performance of the NIB BATTLEWORN® Mod 2 Glock® 21:

added forward serrations and weight reducing side and top slide cuts;
removed the finger grooves, reduced the pistol grip and undercut the trigger guard;
added a unique stippled texture to the pistol grip;
added a NIB BATTLEWORN® plated SSVi Tyr trigger; which was designed to be the next evolution in an EDC/duty trigger and maintains all current safeties built into the Glock Safe Action system but enhances the leverage used when actuating trigger; and added Glock® factory night sights.

I like the description. But it lacks one detail. The price?

Bought one a couple of weeks ago, Gen 4 Battleworn Glock 19.

Its going to be my "barbecue gun"

I have a Gen 2 Glock 17 police trade-in that is naturally "battle-worn" but I would not buy a new gun that was artificially aged.

No

all the girls nowadays buy jeans with holes already in them.

I remember when jeans were blue, like really blue!


Now I can say, i remember when Glocks were black!

Nope, not fake battle worn.

It actually looks pretty good in person, not in the market myself but it sure stands out in the case, much better than the odd Battle Tan or Oh DEE green or Lipsey grey models, at least it looks metalically...

Nope not for me.
I prefer to wear them in the oldfashioned way

Nope nope nope......

Not my cup of tea.

In all fairness though, at least it doesn't look like somebody dropped a grenade on it.

Perfect for mall ninjas, sitting around the camp fire telling tales of their going into harm's way again and again...

Why? What does it do that a standard Glock cannot?

Low friction, huh? Yeah, that's always been an issue with Glocks, right?

Cutting holes in the slide? Pointless except for movie prop masters, or competition shooters running powder puff loads.

Pass

To each his own, I prefer the "earned it" route.

That would go nicely with my $500 fake dirty jeans from Nordstrom lol.

Holy shit that is fantastic!!! I can't stop laughing damn near crying!

The finish is pretty attractive, I think.
The name put me off, though.

I don't want "Battle"-anything. I've never been in a battle.

I didn't serve and I respect the sacrifices of anyone who ever did.

I'll take mine in black.

YMMV,

I don't mind wear, but I strongly prefer it to be honest. There's been big money in beating guitars to shit and selling them as "relics". I'm surprised it has taken this long to get to the gun market.

Nope.
