Re: Pictures Of Your Daily Carry

That is interesting Swamprnr. I am happy to be wrong about it. I wonder how much it cost SAPD to cancel the order after paying for the special markings. If you can document the order and cancellation (open records request might do it), I would keep that with the pistol. It might increase its value to a collector some day.

Wildbill,

Yep, I guess I am. But I got even with her when my first granddaughter was born two years ago. I bought all of the baby clothes I could from the John Deere store. I am always looking for western style or farm and ranch style stuff for her. It has become a kind of running jokeas my son tries to make her a "lady".

Re: Pictures Of Your Daily Carry

I think that is actually a 3rd Gen Glock that SAPD traded in. Note the straight lines in the slide for pulling the slide back.

SAPD bought a batch of the first Gen Glocks back in 91. They traded them in back around 2004 or so. I found mine at Dury's (serial number was my old badge number), bought it, and gave it to my son as a wedding present (and just because of that, his wife called me a redneck for some reason). I believe that they recently traded their 3rd Gen's in also and bought the newest version.

Re: Pictures Of Your Daily Carry

Webb,

On those HK, the front of the grip is actually the cocking mechanism for the weapon. So, squeezing the grip is like cocking the hammer on a 1911. They are called squeezecockers by some because if you squeeze the grip, the pistol is cocked and ready to go.
