Only test fit at home, otherwise new. It has extra color which isn't even an option anymore and I cut out a piece of neoprene foam on the cheek riser and put it in the safe. All the specs are in the last picture. Skip the 10 month wait it took to get it. $1120 shipped
(Currently looking for an Impact NBK or Lone Peak Fuzion Alpine cut or Ti full rail for trades.)

Wanted to share my experience with Glock Customer Service/Warranty
- By LuckyDuck

Howdy Hide,
Figured this is the best forum to post this in. First things first- I'm a big fan of Glocks and own a bunch of 'em and bought a new one as recently as last week. Just to illustrate that point, below is a picture that I've shared here of my collection of Glocks chambered in 45...
Hopefully that serves to illustrate that I'm a fan of their product and not bashing them. That said, I did have to use their customer service/warranty recently and just wanted to share my experience with the Hide and hope that it may be of some help to others down the line if they too find themselves going down a similar path and find this thread through a search. Bottom line up front, I'm neither miffed nor impressed with how things worked out, but rather somewhere in the underwhelmed/indifferent mindset after bringing this effort to a conclusion as of today.
To start with- I should begin where all good stories begin, at the beginning and what started this exchange. I have a G19.3 purchased NIB in 2009 and the pistol has been an absolute rockstar ever since I owned it. I don't mean to overestimate the round count but after 15 years, I'd say that it likely is in the ballpark of 10K rounds. All factory ammunition using brands such as S&B, WWB, UMC, Blazer, Magtech, etc. There was about 1-2K rounds of NATO spec ammo and maybe 500 rounds of +P. I know that I've replaced the recoil spring at least twice (so minimum of 3 OEM recoil springs since owning it NIB).
So with that said- I'm a bit on the neurotic side when it comes to cleaning my firearms, doesn't matter if I put 50 or 500 rounds through it, it just bothers me to go to bed with a 'dirty' pistol. Well about 2-3 years or so ago, I was cleaning the pistol and noticed that there was a chip on the outside of the barrel with what appeared to be a hairline fracture that went from the chip all the way to the 12 o'clock position of the barrel. Truth be told, I already had a backup G19 so I took the Gen 3 out of rotation figuring I'd bring it to a GSSF match and have an armorer look at it for free but between COVID, work, and life, what was supposed to be a pause intended to only be a couple of months turned into years and this year I finally had the craps of having a pistol on the sideline for so long and decided to reach out to Glock's customer service.
Before I get too far, I know the pictures aren't of the greatest quality but I'll throw the pictures of the issue I'm describing here below-
Since I know it's not the best quality, I'll also throw in a crudely edited picture of the area in question...
Not sure if it'll come through but as members here are well aware, this is the part of the firearm subjected to tens of thousands of PSI each and every time a round is fired during normal operation so naturally I was concerned about metallurgical issues at this point which is what caused me to seek Glock's opinion on the matter.
Alrighty, this post is getting long so I'll end it hear and pick it up in a subsequent post.

Early Not M40 Smear Find
- By RIGREG
- Vintage Sniper Rifles
- 8 Replies
Definitely not M40, but this looks like an early HTG ADL Smear. I have no immediate build in mind, so it will get shelved for now. I can sell off the 40X BA and Zeiss scope to recover some of my outlay. I have no interest in BR rifles or 6MM PPC. I don’t think I’ll ever know when this was built, but clearly the early 40X had a previous life.
It’s being shipped to my FFL. Once I have it in hand, I’ll separate the action from the stock. Hopefully, it’s not glued tight. My only real concern is if the bolt handle cutout will fit a 700 swept handle without too much work. Gun store guy thought it was a poorly done homemade camo job.
Enjoy the pics,
Greg
