I've sailed too close to the shoals by buying that Browning.
Like a Warlock too close to the hills of Aldagmor; I hear the faint muttering...
Glock.
Glock the sirens sing.
I am damned.
Luckily I've committed too much to the STEN project and The Lovely Harvey has balls in the air with the Purple AR Revivification.
Yet, I can see a Glock 17 in the moderately near future.
I've owned one or three before. The last one became a gift to Aunt Bat when she graduated college. Dear Gods, has it really been nearly 20 years?
Give in to the Teutonic siren song of the gunbrick. The slightly gravelly, off-key call cannot be resisted.
ReplyDeleteGen4s are pretty nice, other than the grip stippling that seems designed to help remove any lovehandles by abrasion if you carry it. Has most of the things people would add as aftermarket parts (extended magazine release, adjustable backstraps with the possibility of adding a beavertail, etc) out of the box.
I'm actually partial to the 2nd gens because I don't like the finger separators; but I'll survive a 4th Gen if they've fixed the reliability issues they initially had. It shows that I haven't been paying close attention to Glock for a while that I don't know if they've addressed it or not.
DeleteYeah, they fixed that up pretty quick. It was a problem with the metallurgy in the double recoil spring, the springs were losing their spring temper, if I recall correctly.
