Wife researched and bought a new carry gun. She is a big 1911 fan, and this is basically a polymer 1911 with the overall thin profile, manual safety that is large, and a grip safety. Its actually really nice to shoot.

Nice! This is how all S&W defensive revolvers should come. Tritium sights, no lock. I’ve got the noisy cricket version of that. The 340PD in .357 Mag.

My new-to-me Glock 17L with Lone Wolf threaded barrel, 1/2x28 to 5/8×24 thread adapter, thread protector, and Crimson Trace laser grip.

I got it from a local auction house. OTD, including buyer's premium and background check, I paid $526. Personally, I think that price was a steal.

I have no use for the thread adapter and it's thread protector.

I have not seen a P227 in some time they are like unobtanium at this point.  I remember a few years ago my LGS had a used one when Sig was still making them but wanted 1799 for it.

I know what you mean. This one kind of fell in my lap. It was made back in Apr. 2014 and is in really nice condition (almost like new). I got a great deal on all three of these pistols (package deal from a local guy I have known for few years).

After firing a couple cylinders of .38 specials out of it I knew I wouldn’t like it with .357 mags so I switched to this grip and like it a lot better.

I recently purchased this pistol, it's a Glock 17 with serial number AB438, which was produced in February 1984. I've been told that there's only about 4 of these February 1984 (LTF) dated Glocks known to exist in the country. Additionally, half of those known February 1984 Glocks in the US have this original greenish-black slide finish (duotone or something?) and an in-the-white pencil barrel, just like the early Austrian military P80's. The other half of the pistols have the regular black slide and black barrel. So, this is maybe 1 of maybe 2 February 1984 Glock 17's in the US with this type of finish. That's ridiculously rare! I could be off on these numbers, but that's what I've been told by some very high-level Glock collectors.

The only earlier civilian Glocks are the AA serial number prefix guns from December 1983 (and possibly a month or 2 earlier than that). The 2 letter serial number prefix is followed by a 3 digit number going from 001 to 999. So, the AA serial number range was AA001 to AA999, then they switched to the AB range which was from AB001 to AB999, and then so on. That makes my pistol (AB438) the 1,437th Glock to ever be produced for the civilian market! That's unbelievably early, especially considering how many countless millions of pistols they've made for just the civilian market in the past 40 years. Not many of these early guns are still around, even in Europe they're ridiculously rare. Glock sold their first civilian pistols to Europeans in 1984, the first civilian Glocks were sold to Americans in 1986 (starting with the AF serial number prefix).

Today, Glocks are a dime a dozen, but it's a pistol that revolutionized firearms development and it's now one of the most important firearms to ever be invented. Love them or hate them, Glock pistol have made a major impact on the history of firearms and their development. This is why I've started collecting the very early Glocks. They're extremely interesting and historically significant. Someday collecting these early Glock pistols will become more than just a small niche hobby.







Here's a photo of my AC serial number prefix Glocks. It has the same slide finish as the AB pistol above, but you can see how the color changes under different lighting conditions. You can see how green these early slides actually are:

An FFL Friend bought a Glock at the Louisville, Ky gun show at the Fairgrounds in 1986 or 87 and his is a very low serial number Gen 1 Glock 17.   His pistol has digested many tens of thousand reloads.   His pistol has the original black Tennifer finished slide and barrel.   My Friend was determined to wear out his Glock to show the sub caliber polymer gun was junk.   He gave up trying to wear out his Glock 17 and has become a proponent of Glock pistols.  My Friend’s email is glockaholic.

Like Glock or hate them they made a huge impact on the handgun market.   I still like the Glock simple, reliable design that is very durable.
