So today I received my first paycheck from the new job.  To celebrate I had plans to buy another G17.  That is until I received a Christmas bonus for close to $500.  I decided to buy the G17 and put a G26 and G21 on layaway.  

I've wanted another .45 for some time now so I think the G21 should fit the bill.

Anyways, here is the G17 that I picked up today.

Is that pic big enough or what?  

Anyways, congrats on the pistol.  I got a G19 a couple weeks ago and still haven't been able to try it out.

Remember you could have bought a XD.  

this is one from my work, it was a range gun that got wet during hurricane wilma.

PS it this pic was taken 24 hours after the storm. not long to look like a hunk o shit



or better yet you could be a sig owner, the 226,220,228,229 and the 232 all rusted with in 1 day. Outstanding job.

i know this pic is blury but it shows the worse one of all the P220 with the laser grips was toast.

PS the CTC laser grips worked flawless.

I can find a picture of a blown up 1911, sig, hk, you name it.  The pictures represent morons who cant seem to reload their ammo properly.

I've never been a glock fan, but my next gun will be a G26.  You just can't beat the size for CCW.  I'm currently carrying my p99 (9mm) in a CTAC and is ok for winter/fall carry, but still digs in my leg whenever I go from standing to sitting.  The 26 seems like it's gonna be perfect in a CTAC.  I just wanna get something to CCW that doesn't remind me it's on me all the time.

SFR, how do you like your 9P?  Does it put out quite a bit more light than the 6P?

Then the G26 will be an excellent choice.

How many rounds does the G26 hold?

Never was much of a Glock fan-- until I handled & bought a 1st. generation Glock 17 (in 2002). Somehow, I shoot that thing better than any of my handguns. Quick to target, easy to holster-- who would have guessed!!  Hate to admit I shoot that thing more than any other piece I own. Shoot the piss out of your Glock, decide for yourself. I can almost guarentee you will be impressed.-- Good luck!!

i got the 200 lum blub in there. it was brand new before hurricane wilma, i spent 13 days guarding the shop, went thru about 40 batteries, the best surefire for the money IMO. PS i beat the shit out of it and not a prob.

I have to post this in every thread mentioning glocks to counter the idiots who say kaboom.  They are the real koolaid drinkers, the infidels, the uninformed and truly ignorant.
