Who's rockin a beat up old Glock?

[westfork]

I've got this old (2nd gen circa 1994) Glock 23 that I have never been able to talk myself into trading off or selling. I had an XD at one time and held them side by side and low and behold the Glock still lives here.

I'm not super diehard Glock or anything; it's just been a keeper, I guess. I bought it probably 8 years ago used as a PD trade-in at a gunshow somewhere and I'm sure it has about a buzzillion rounds through it. Tons of holster wear, scuffs, nicks, who cares, still works.

I've never done anything to it until tonight - put some new TruGlo night sights on it. I feel like it has sprung back to life again...

So tell the group about your old Glock. I'm sure there are folks on here with an older, more storied Glock than mine.

Who's got the oldest Glock on INGO???

Why is everyone looking at me?

Yeah, OK, I most likely do. Got my first one in high school in the *cough, coug* late '80s.

Not the oldest, probably, but sjstill has what is easily the most ragged-out Glock I've ever seen. And it still shoots.

I've got a Gen 1 17 made in February 1988. I called Glock and they looked up the serial for me. Got it at Tactical Inc. in New Albany for $399. It's shot great for me and never had any problems.

while maybe not up to this threads standards, i have a glock 19 w/ almost 20,000 rounds through it. i am at 1700 rounds w/out a cleaning now and its still going strong. still has some mud in the front dovetail from where i threw it in a soggy muddy mess two years ago at an INGO shoot.

I hear Chuck Taylor rocks a really beat up old glock.

G17 (gen2) bought 8/13/1993
Used...
Unknown round count, extractor was bad when I got it. Shop fixed it for free. (Blythes Valpo) I have put thousands of rounds down range with it of all kinds of ammo and never had an issue. It is also my wife's favorite gun.

Off and on. It's been a while since I had a class with Chuck (he had just recovered from his parachuting accident) but he had a 1911 on.

He talked about the Glock he'd shot the snot out of. As well as told stories about his days being stationed in Indianapolis.

If you take a class from Uncle Chuck, bring a lawn chair.

AFK*** G19, Mid 92. Don't recall specifics. Definitely not the oldest or most beat up. Slide wear and some barrel wear are normal, but its still going.

Gotta glock 17 2nd gen born in 1995 I like it better than any of my newer generation glock I dont want to ever part with it. There is something about a gun that you can beat up and look terrible and be ok with it.

 

[westfork]

since i started the thread i guess i'd better share mine...

looks the best with no lights on...

 

[ISHOOTHST'S]

Good post.

OK my 23 (sorry no pic capability) is worse looking than that, and my old GS prefix 2nd gen G-19 while showing some slide wear is worn smooth and shiny along the grip area. I own a BX serial # G-19 (Nov 88) and my oldest G-17 is a KV prefix serial number (Jan 90).
