Am I the only one tired of the never ending Glock clones being made? Now Ruger teamed up with Magpul to produce a Glock clone. When will it end? Maybe Glock can clone someone else's design next.

Never ending Glock clones.

I heard Glock is designing a striker fired, polymer, 1911 clone...
Imitation, flattery, something something.
I don’t care. Neither does my trio of 19s, 20, 34, 35 or the little pair of 43s.

I can’t wait until SHOT when companies release new actions and rifles with gay ass names.
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
As @Mike Casselton alluded to above, There are many many more 1911 clones than Glock can imagine.

I like it. A little innovation is always welcome. Hopefully the dot mounting set up is better than Glock MOS.
All that said, I have owned a pile of Glocks over the years. They have all worked well for purpose. No complaints. Back in the dark ages Glock was the less expensive alternative to most or the other wonder nines. Glock benefited from their innovations and the sat on their laurels. Others are stepping in to that void.

I don’t see the problem. No one’s going to make you buy one. I have a Shadow Systems G19 clone and it’s my favorite pistol in my stable.
When those drones turn out to be the globalist endgame of putting everyone into Cities 17-131, and now a guerrilla war is underway in the scablands between the UN and the Free Soil forces, having what appears to be a restaurant bus bin in front of you full of seemingly broken beyond repair captured govt service Glocks, Rugers, and Sigs, and then one grizzled dude wearing a butternut forage cap and puffing on a corncob pipe steps forward and start assembling fully functional handguns by slapping parts together seems.... very useful and reassuring... Parts interchangeability and compatibility BETWEEN manufacturers will help everyone out in the long run...
Me personally, I prefer to channel my inner Rick Grimes / Jeremiah Johnson and rock a VERY LONG and HUGE hawg leg loaded with Buffalo Bore and Cor-Bon ++P chamberings as my main. Anything additional would just be accoutrements...

PSA and their many affordable clones, like the Dagger have done more for 2A freedom than Glock…
Gents, I don't have a problem with Glocks. Shot many glocks. Never once have I stated that I hate or dislike Glocks. I am a buy, what you want kind of gun guy. Glock clones just aren't interesting to me.As they are not interesting to lots of other gun owners. If you love Glocks more power to you.
I do like the transferable chassis trigger group Ruger is using in this gun. That could be used in other chassis with different features.

I agree with this. It sounds like good engineering. Hopefully the execution will match.
It could end up superior to many or all if they get some decently shaped grip frames and decent innards.
That one looks a tad "square" for my liking.

They don’t have to be interesting to you to be important for the gun community. There are plenty of guns that I have absolutely 0 interest in and will talk mad shit aboot. But I’ll never “get tired” of seeing more firearm options for everyone on the planet
Okay.
Edit. We are talking about this new gun now. Because, I had an opinion about it. Might not be the same opinion as you. But not everybody has to agree with our opinions!

This argument is ultimately going to boil down to you starting this in The Pit. You should know by now that no matter what the thread is there will be a bunch of people just chomping at the bit to give you shit.
Yep. Didn't know where else to put it. As there's not a pistol forum on site. Or is there and I didnt see it?On other sites it's about a 50/50 split on people liking this New Ruger or not digging it. If someone comes to my range with one. I will most definitely give it a fair shake and put some rounds through it.
One of my good friends is a big Glock fanboy, So I have plenty of rounds thru a bunch of Glock models.
Just noticed there was a Threat in the armory. Damn! Now I know.
Fuck it, I'll start this. 1911s will ALWAYS remain the winner of ALL time. They can do ANYTHING a Glock can do. 9mm? There are 1911s chambered in that. High capacity? Extended mags and drums for 1911s are also available. Dual drums on an extendo are even better, because from a distance, it will look like you are also waving a giant cock and balls at the enemy as you are letting off rounds at them. How insulting that would be to them, to see what looks like a large metal cartoon phallus being waved at them before they are pink misted?
2011's are better than 1911's ! Let the shit fly!Fuck it, I'll start this. 1911s will ALWAYS remain the winner of ALL time. They can do ANYTHING a Glock can do. 9mm?

Most of the pistol stuff is in The Armory but we welcome any chance to throw handfuls of poop and screech. So, thanks for this

With the Fire Control Insert, should we call it a Gloig… or maybe a Sock?
Yes, agree 100%. Plenty of stuff I'd NEVER buy myself; but I appreciate either the craftsmanship or novelty of it all. Case in point is the Rhino revolver. Cool concept; but, I'm not really into revolvers as defense firearm (unless it's a J-frame snubby for polite carry). But, I respect it's "different" and potentially more user friendly to recoil.
Ruger and Grit Grips and PSA and Shadow Systems all understand that the Glock design is the standard and the future. Just like DPMS and Bushmaster and the like realized the AR15 was the standard and the future back then.
I have had Glocks since 1994, my first autopistol was a G21. I have had them continuously since and have helped many buy their first handgun as a Glock. I am as much a fanboi as anyone but the fact that other companies are making clones doesn’t bother me at all. It actually is very good and will drive some good ideas, parts and accessories.
More guns is always a good thing.
I have a Dagger and am putting together a Grit Grips 19 with a Kinet-tech slide right now. My Dagger FS-S has been 100%, just like my Glocks. I don’t understand why this could possibly bother gun people but then I do remember the “if it ain’t Colt it ain’t shit” early days of AR15s.

The DC9R began with the simple idea of melding the best features of a hand built 2011 style pistol with the rugged reliability, familiar feel, and manual of arms of a Glock pistol. This idea has been tried a few times before, but was never executed fully until now. Years of learning, research...

Looks awesome as maybe a comp pistol, just a smidge out of the price range of Glock, et al.Here. It ends here.

Nah dawg... This thread has gone full Cowboy Bebop. Nobody can deny that the DC9R will cheer up the face of the meanest and grumpiest space cowboy patrolling the bandit infested wastes of the Jupiter-Ganymede Outback...

Just got the Grit Grips/Kinet-Tech gun together. Shooting tomorrow but wow cannot say enough good about how it looks and how nicely made the components are.
No big deal, Glocks are OK, magazines are all over the place. How many R700 clones floating around here?

Deal breaker is that it's still got a glock trigger.Looks awesome as maybe a comp pistol, just a smidge out of the price range of Glock, et al.
That's an underestimation of glock owners.This thread is gayer than Glock owners.
For that money, that's a hard no for me.Here. It ends here.

Beat me to it. My brother has a 4" platypus with an rmr cc on it. 25 yards off a sandbag it'll put a whole mag through a 1½" hole. I was impressed. I need to try it in my safariland holster. If it works I'd be tempted to dump my Kimber TE ll.Or buy 1-2 of these and ammo

Says the gayest member of SH.This thread is gayer than Glock owners.
If that were the case, there wouldn't be tons of clones getting made, and sold like hot cakes. I get they aren't everyone's thing, but they are damned popular for sure.
CZ97 to go with my cool shades and skinny jeans.Most of the pistol stuff is in The Armory but we welcome any chance to throw handfuls of poop and screech. So, thanks for this
