[ARCHIVED THREAD] - I bought a Glock ... but

Posted: 9/11/2019 9:14:24 AM EDT

Well I bought a Glock last fall. Gen 3, NIB, specially ordered at the factory. Paid $ 1650 for it. Oh well ...

Tupperware box

Gen 4 manual. Close enough I guess.

Inside. Nothing fancy, well known design

Hang on !! Is that ..

A fun switch !?

A Glock 18 ! That ought to be fun

Annex to manual

If I shoot myself in the leg with a full mag at 1300 RPM, at least I’ve been warned

Jealous

I have never got to play with a gun with a happy switch

, the best I've done was a double stamped MPX which was pretty sweet.

Very nice, but holy crap on that price. We can purchase them here in states, well the department can purchase them for around $600. Problem is getting the Chief to sign off on letting me buy one.

I believe Glock is really picky with who they'll sell them to, they won't sell them to just any department.

They would only ship it to the dealer against a copy of the special permit.

Would you like to share that 93R link?
I searched for it, but came up with nothing recent.
We're only talking about two of the coolest pistols in history!

Jackass!!

I got to shoot one at knob Creek years ago. Muzzle rise is a bitch on those, and the rate of fire is almost MG42 fast. With a little practice, I was doing 3-5 round bursts with ease. 33 round happy sticks didn't last long.

Initially pulled this up on my phone, and didn't even notice the case in second pic said Glock 18.

I thought you paid so much since your location is not in USA, and Glock's might be more expensive in other parts of the world.

When I saw the happy switch, I fucking dropped my cigarette and laughed my ass off at how good of a post you made!!!!

You lucky son of a bitch! We need video of you shooting this now. You know that, right?

They are fun, but your ammo supply dries up quick. Burst and then lean into.

I was wondering how a private individual was able to
get a G18??? I thought they were produced after the
NFA or whatever it was in the 80's.

Sweet OP. Definite envy here in north Texas.

Nice OP!

Its crazy to me that people from America have to be envious of people's rights from another country.

Not saying we are better, but obviously something went wrong to read a thread, be from America, and go... Man! I wish I could do that.

So awesome.

Never give up your rights my Swiss friend.
