Y’all asked for it, and here it is. Once again, I need to inform everyone of the numbers I’m using to makes the comparison images. I’m using the picture of the Glock 43 that is going around the internet today sized by the numbers listed in the picture of the Recoil magazine page in this post (6.26″ Overall Length). I traced the picture below into a vector image, and then laid it over other vector …

I filmed this video last night explaining all of the Glock clues and my “photo forensics” work that I did on the clues. Since posting the video, another picture has started making its way around social media, and it looks pretty convincing: I don’t read a lot (I don’t read any) gun rags, so the graphics on the page don’t look familiar to me, but after giving it a glance, it looks legit to me. …

Just minutes ago, Glock dropped this picture on their Facebook page: Oh boy, I think the cats out of the bag now. The only questions us, how big/small will it actually be? Will it be the 9mm we’ve all be waiting for? Whatchu think?

Here we go again! Today Glock dropped this picture on their Facebook page: As soon as I saw it, I ran to the computer to begin chopping it to pieces with image editing software. Here’s the new slide cropped out of the picture from above, and the same picture of it after I did some Photoshop magic to it to change the colors: My first thought was to line it up with a slide from a …
Read More »Dissecting Glock’s “This Spring” Ad
Earlier today, Glock posted this picture on their Facebook page, with the caption “This Spring”. They said nothing else about it. Well, if you’re like me, you’re hoping that this could mean a super special new spring to fit in the Glock unicorn singlestack 9mm pistol that we all hope exists somewhere behind lock and key in Smyrna, GA. I decided to do a little digging into this picture to see what I could come …
Read More »Aftermarket Glock Magazines that Don’t Suck?
Yeah, I’m interested, especially if they weigh within 2oz of a factory Glock 17 magazine (I’m sure they do) so they will be USPSA Production legal. Magpul is going some cool stuff this year, looks like that move out of Colorado isn’t hurting them.
Read More »New Year SHOT Show Leaks (Glock and FN)
The past couple of days have brought some leaks of new pistols that will be dropping at SHOT Show later this month. As expected, Glock is apparently coming out with a line of optic ready long slide pistols. I’m curious about why they decided to go with long slide pistols for the optic ready models, because once you put an optic on the pistol, the sight radius doesn’t matter anymore. I’d be a bit more …
Read More »Bored? Want To See a Bunch of Ruined Glocks? Try This:
Not long ago I posted about following the #kydex hashtag in Instagram, and how not all folks making holsters really know what they’re doing. Today I came across even more derp, and I had to share it. So, if you want to see a bunch of completely ruined tactically stippled Glocks try this: Go to Armslist In the search bar at the top of the page, type “stippled” or “stippling” and hit enter Click on …
Read More »Glock 40 = Optics Ready Long Slide 10mm?
According to Weddles Gun Shop on Facebook, that could be the case. We don’t have much to go on here, but this seems to be the first report on what may be coming at SHOT show next month from Glock. The Glock “MBS” is the “multiple backstrap system” on the Gen4 pistols, so I don’t really know what to think about “MOS”, but I suspect they may be right about some sort of optic ready …
Read More »Dry Fire Protip #1 – Magazine Baseplate Retainers
During the summer months I brought my dry fire practice into the living room, and lined up my targets across the top of the TV. This worked great, but I wasn’t able to move as much as I would have liked, so now that the weather has cooled down a bit, I spent most of the evening last night getting the garage all set up again for dry fire. All summer I just used my …
