Burn the witch!!!
From what I understand the market study showed that a lot of people wanted a metal receiver and more of a "1911" style grip. The only thing that I can see that would kill-it is what the finial cost will be? (or if Glock releases a 4th gen frame with interchangeable back straps)

Solution looking for a problem. Glock's polymer frame is only looking for one thing: The ability to change the grip. I want to be able to install a screw-on hogue rubber finger groove grip. That would be the Ultimate! (I don't like the slip-on because if it gets wet it doesn't feel as secure to me). |
It would certainly increase felt recoil. Polymer frame guns absorb much more recoil than any metal frame. J |
I would imagine the increase in recoil would minimal at best. |

I saw it in my catalog last week and thought it was pretty cool. I'll agree that it is not something that I need but I would like to get one, find a top end on the EE and give it go. What the heck, I love tinkering and trying new things. Does anyone know the price? |

why is it a solution waiting for a problem? its actually a pretty good idea. I know a few people who like the glock for the reliable reputaion it has aquired but don't like the grip, etc. it would be a softer shooting gun, because of the added mass of the metal frame. more mass=more inertia. same amount of recoil dissapated through a different amount of mass. good idea...yes would I buy one...no, I like my G19 the way it is for now now you hardcore glockaholics out there can flame me if you like |
