| That's... um....nice? No offense but it looks like the owner threw on a messy paintjob and crappy polish work. Congrats nonetheless, but it needs work. What's the next Glock you're getting? I just bought a KJW G32c myself

| The slide is actually sanded. I hate it with a passion, but I'm not going to complain! It's a free Glock, haha. I've been working on chipping off the paint on the lower, and it appears to be a dark OD underneath, so hopefully I can get all the "Watch your language" paint off. It's just going to take a lot of time and patience, and I'm lacking on the latter, haha. I don't want to sand it because that would get rid of all the beautiful checkering on the front of the trigger guard and the grip. The next Glock I'm getting is another 17, but it's all black and in pristine condition. I actually got a little trigger time with it last Saturday, and I can't wait for it to be in my collection! And no offense is taken Drummer, this particular Glock was born out of a bag of spare parts, haha. Like I said, free Glock, who's going to complain? edit: as soon as I get my second Glock, this one will become my little experiment. I'm thinking about completely cleaning it up then running it through a little torture test. Right now, I'm thinking about running 100 mags through it on propane with no lube at all. A little mild, yes, but that'll get me warmed up. | |

I have never lubed my glock 23, and have shot many full auto magazines through it. Only problem I have had is losing the full auto lever, and weakened part #64 until I needed a new one. They are REALLY durable. I actually really like the crappy paint look If you decide that you don't want to kill it, I would gladly buy it and give it a new home EDIT: Name it martha. Seems fitting, for some reason. | |

making me want to look around for one ! They're getting too hard to find. Haha. EDIT: Traders always has whatever you are looking for, though. Haha. The guy selling the Glock 19 is the same guy I bought my Glock 26 from. | |

I've dealt with him once buying a magazine for my Cyma Glock. I'm waiting for the occasional seller that comes around selling a KWA Glock for $60...It's happened before | |

Ya but I'm not sure that site is worth my trust. I mean, they're based outta Hong Kong...nothing good can result from that. Especially when it's paired with Glock replicas...which I will remind you, can land you or the retailer in legal \"Watch your language\" with Glock corp. | |

| KSC and KJ Works have redone the trademarks so they aren't illegal.
Instead of the Glock logo it's just a big "G". Then it says the model name ("19" for example), and on KSC it will say "MILSPEC" instead of "AUSTRIA" and on KJW it will be blank on that spot. Then it says the caliber that the real steal is chambered in ("9x19" for example). There's also no illegal trades on the mags.
WGC Shop will also give you the option (upon ordering) to cover the trademarks and/or disassemble the replica before shipping. 100% safe. | |

| Yah if you ever do order from there, there's no need to select the "pay now" option. I thought it would mean that I could pay from a credit card immediately rather than sending a payment through mail (which they made it sound like you had to do, otherwise). TURNS OUT, the pay now option just sends an error message. So just hit "Submit'' rather than "Pay Now" at checkout because they just email you a confirmation and price quotation and you can click a hyperlink that takes you to a page where you give them your payment info.

| Glock made replicas that look like their firearms illegal now too. The ones with the big G worked for a while, and then glock got angry again. That's what I have heard from multiple places. | |

| Oh. Well they still cover the trades and disassemble so... But a funny thing is, I asked about disassembly but the guy said "We will do the cover trade marks but it is not necessary for us to do take apart on this gun" EDIT: And mine apparently made it past customs it's in Anchorage right now sitting in a UPS facility. | |

| @Sno I think I'll be keeping this baby for awhile, unless I could somehow trade it for a KSC Glock 26....

You, sir make me laugh I like compacts more than full size guns, but I want a full size, so I can have all glock sizes. ANNND, I prefer KSC over KWA (I do not care if they are the same ). If I can find a free KSC Glock 26 with a "interesting" OD paint job, I would be happy to trade, as my current glock 26 is practically brand new. | |

| Just remember Jarhead has a spot in his rifle bag that will fit a 26 perfectly! edit: oddly enough, a 19 would fit there perfectly as well. | |

Haha, if I happen upon a Glock 19, you won't hear about it until it's in my gun case. | |

As an attempted collector, I cannot afford to do that, but I appreciate that you could | |
