A Model 8 red X....

Maybe it's just me.

Gen 1/2 G19?

Looks like a Glock.

Gen 1-2 Glock. Judging by the shape of the front sight post, my guess would be queer soft.

Probably a Glock, but the dustcover looks a little funny.
Homey holding it looks like a real winner...

Has to be a glock. before the generation 3 rails.

Looks kinda like an old Grendel, but I'm not sure

This is an old Glock mid size model, before they refined the production so that the guns would not be fuzzy and out of focus.

It looks like the slide is not all the way forward, so that the gun is not in battery. We have several rental Glocks with tens of thousands of rounds through them and they still close properly. It may be a toy.

Could be, since guns are regulated very strictly in the Netherlands, and even replica's are absolutely not legal.
Often people buy airsoft in surrounding countries like Germany or Spain.
You think the front sight post looks odd?

Does to me. Not to mention the lack of markings on the slide.

What ever it is, it goes well with his lipstick!

It's an airsoft or toy Glock. Don't own a Block-grenade, myself, but the proportions of the slide to the frame are a little off, the front sight is screwed, and it all just looks to be slightly different than normal.

Also, even though it's a blurry pic, it seems as though there's some fingerprint smudges on it, indicative of a more "gloss" finish on the replicas than would be present on the actual tennifer-coated slide of the real McCoy.

Likely, but it could also be whatever model they offer in that size chambered in .380/9mm Kurtz in Europe.

He's a flickker!

Thanks guys, conclusion:

airsoftversion of a Glock G19 9mm due to:

1. lack of markings
2. slide is not fully forward, thus mismatching frame
3. front sight looking weird
4. glossy finish causing fingerprints

That kid looks like he is about 12. What a winner.
