No I wouldn't. My stock gen4 21 runs just fine shooting groups just as tight as my S/A TRP. My two prior Gen 3 21's ran perfectly also. "Improve the functionality"? A fool and their money soon part. | |||

Perfect! My instructor's Glock is usually so ratty and worn that I always enjoy watching him outshoot the students with pretty guns. I will admit the guns I carry in leather hardly wear accept the rubbing parts but my P320 finish is already worn after a few months of carry and dry fire. If you wear the finish you have been doing some work. That's manly but not fake distressed. Training as often as possible! NSSF Media Member | |||

 I didn’t think that was possible. It’s like a “reliability” package being offered for a SIG: How does someone improve the reliability of “Works every time”? And according to every Glock owner whose opinion I’ve read, Glocks work better than Works every time (unless they need a 500+ round break in to work every time, but hey, they still work every time; mostly).
I would not, however, blame this on Glock. Based on the link it’s an aftermarket company doing all that, and it’s no different than any other aftermarket company’s offerings. ► 6.4/93.6 ___________ “We are Americans ….

I like it, I have a G21SF with a similar finish but it's a battle worn blue, and my daily carry G30 SF just got dropped off for a copper-hued battle worn finish. It's cheap, I find it fun to to, I am supporting Veteran-owned American pro-gun businesses, and frankly I tend to take serious things seriously and have fun the rest of the time. How my Glock is painted is not a serious issue for me, and I'm the guy paying for it. If I get tired of a finish, I'll pay to get it redone in something else. It's just a fun thing for me to enjoy as a guy who has owned a whole lot of stock, black Glocks over the years. -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- Guns, cars, Cuban cigars | |||

Not as expensive as other "upgraded" Glock models like ZEV or Salient. But other than the finish, which I would prefer to put on it through normal use, I see no use for this package. | |||

Looks like those fake Steampunk (usually Nerf) guns those cosplay weirdos play with to me: http://steampunkstyling.com/blog/steampunk-guns/ | |||

I have... they're called police trade in's and the cost 1/3 as much.  _____________________________________________________ Sliced bread, the greatest thing since the 1911. | |||

 we just got the Red battleworn glock 19s... not really my cup of tea, but I figured they'd have a better response than they do... o well live and learn... your LGS seems pretty high at 699 though just my opinion... | |||

No thanks, I'll stick with LE trade ins or vintage pistols. Wonder how much I could get for my JC date coded P225? Never been refinished. Hahaha. I'd rather be hated for who I am than loved for who I'm not. | |||

Never. I do my own battleworn finish. Takes about 7-8 years of hard use per gun.  "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." - Neil Armstrong. | |||

It's not a bad looking finish, and it has the benefit that one isn't going to hurt it regardless of chipping, wear, or damage, but I wouldn't pay extra to get it. If one is buying a pistol for show-and tell, then why not? If one is buying it for serious use, carry or otherwise, then making pretty may not be the priority. I'd rather focus on functionality. | |||

No. I have duty guns that look like they have been there and done that, because they have been there and done that. Open duty carry is hard on a gun's finish, as is training. The very idea of fake "battle" wear is an insult. Get out there and train with the gun, for an authentic worn look. Then, the Lone Wolf barrel would kill the deal. There are far better aftermarket barrels, such as KKM. Have Colts, will travel | |||

Best response so far. Except, perhaps, for egregore's angry cat. I might be willing to spring for $800...if you can take care of the lint wad.  ______________________ An expert is one who knows more and more about less and less until he knows absolutely everything about nothing. --Nicholas Murray Butler | |||
