Ordered a P365XL. Told my wife I plan on selling something to finance it. So, G43, G48 or G19 Gen5. All with a few custom features. I'm thinking the G48 but I guess I'll know more after I get my hands on the P365XL at the range. Could be the G19. I like all of these pistols, but sadly, one needs to go.

Very nice pair of long slides Rawny. Is your 10mm gun a G40 slide on a G20 frame? I am a little confused how the KKM is marked. Also, I like those extended controls and its rear sight looks something similar to Bomar? Happy Easter and thank you for posting these.

Love my G20. Have it loaded with the 200 grain HST and not a hiccup. When I woods carry I use the Buffalo Bore 190 grain dangerous game. Have not had a problem with that load either.

Good eyes. Those are Bo-Mars, with Dawson's up front. I had to dig it out to check. This was a group project using a .45 long slide made by a German company which name escaped me. We convinced KKM to make us a batch of 10mm conversion barrels to fit the slide. I think we had to order at least twenty barrels. It rides on my G21 frame. The G40 wasn't around 15 years ago, so we made our own.
Here are a couple of new ones:

Thank you. First time I have ever seen a Bomar mounted on a Glock. Its a nice pistol. Being a 10mm, what is your use for it? It would be a great hunting pistol.

Been trying to find a slide for Glock29SF to have an optic mounted on it while keeping the original "virgin." Any suggestions as to where I could find a backup slide?
I once owned a Glock for 24 hours. They don't like me. I've decided not to offend them with my presence. It's been a good relationship.
I try them out from time to time but there's never any improvement. Nothing against Glock in general. Just not a fit for me.

It's just a range toy for now, as I don't hunt. I might try it one day, if opportunity comes.

I just picked up a gently used (honestly it looks unfired to me, still has the copper factory grease) G23.4 for a steal locally. Swapped in a set of the Ameriglo trooper sights, ordered a .357Sig barrel & 5 new mags. Excited about this one, haven't had a .40 in several years now, but took in a couple of cases of ammo in trade.

The prophecy has been fulfilled.
So that it is written so shall it be done.
All jokes aside, nothing wrong with folks who genuinely don’t like Glocks for the myriad of practical reasons Glocks have to not like them. It’s the folks who just flat out hate Glocks because REASONS!! for nothing more then they are Glocks that bug me. That goes for any gun for that matter. Get a little experience behind X, Y or Z before arbitrarily hating on it. I mean there are lots of things I don’t care for about Glocks…………I did however buy/own one….or two or…….well I hav experience with them, let’s just leave it at that.

I bought my first firearm in December 1993, a Sig 228, that I still have today. Between that date and early this year, I am lucky enough to have bought several brands of firearms,CZ, HK, Beretta, IWI, SW, Ruger, FN, Browning, Dan Wesson, Walther, Springfield. But never a Glock. Two months ago, I bought my first Glock, a Gen 5 19. I keep saying to myself that this maybe the last handgun I am getting as I will be 66 in a couple of months. I believe that the G19 will be a classic someday, just like my 1911, my Beretta 92, my Hi Power, and my HK P7.
