    I had heard that some Pakistani manufacturers were violating GLOCK patents and copyright by making a pistol with knock-off chinese made parts.

    A GROCK?

    It’s a porcelain gun made in Germany. Doesn’t show up on your airport X-ray machines, here, and it cost more than you make in a month.

    $800 Glock 17 Gen 4. Only 2500 made!

    I’m going on record here as (probably) the only commenter who thinks that’s a good find.

    Everybody things glocks are far too common and ordinary to be collectible. Yeah, and every old timer can tell you about the barrels of 03 springfields for $20 apiece at the hardware store, too.

    Glocks are unquestionably an iconic handgun of the recent past, perhaps the iconic handgun. There are very few factory-made commemoratives or special editions. In 50 years, people will be collecting these guns the way we now collect old Colts and S&Ws – you know, those common, everyday police handguns that they were once available at a giveaway price once the cops got tired of them.

    Save it. You kid will be damn happy to have it someday.

    What is the effect of another 50 years on the elasticity and strength of Glock polymer frames? Will a 75 year old Glock be shootable? Are Gen I guns still going strong after ~35 years, or are there cracks in old grips? What will be the value of an old slide assembly affixed to a new “retro” grip frame in 2065?

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
