Title: You CAN make a Glock uglier!
Post by: fightingquaker13 on April 17, 2009, 09:24:37 PM: I'm still shopping for my G26 and went on guns america. Here, in all its glory was a reasonably priced NIB model for $525. Not a bargain, but not bad. Until you read the fine print. It had been treated in a duracoat snakeskn pattern. ::) :o On the one hand you'll save $20 or so, on the other you'll either have to carry concealed or be prepared to use it. Poor little Glock. :'(

I just piy the fool when the glock retrieval team comes to "discuss" it with him. I'm thinking a very quiet helicopter, guys dressed in black with thick Austrian accents, and lots of little red dots. ;D

All depends on if the sights were mounted on the side of the slide.

Here you go go path, just to prove I'm not making this up. http://www.gunsamerica.com/976998236/Guns-For-Sale/Gun-Auctions/Pistols/Glock-Pistols/26-27/glock_model_m26_26_custom.htm You'll note however, that the photo link no longer works. Hmm, scratches chin. I thought about offering him four and living with the shame, but then clicked on his other items and noticed a glock 19 "gold enlaid "talo edition" with bejewelled barrel and gold enlaid glock symbol". Very rare, I hope.(Again I am not making this up.) All I can say is yikes, and I think Haz might might have a buyer for his sidemounted sites. I love Florida, really I do.
FQ13, who wonders whether 6:45 is too early to have a drink. It is Saturday, right...right.....

The sad thing is I'd rather have pink. I'd prefer to claim that I was gay rather admit that I spent an extra hundred or so to have a perfectly respectable hand gun (much less a pocket pistol!) done up in snake skin. Sheesh! Freud much? :P I mean, at least people could rationalize it if you were gay. Snakeskin? What kind of excuse is there for that?

Post by: ellis4538 on April 18, 2009, 10:52:17 AM: FQ13...just lie and say you got it at such a great deal because of the finish. Shoot the crap out of it and wear the finish off.

FWIW

PS: I'll give you $100 for it!
