There Are Many Like It
6-Apr-15 – 21:50 by ToddGI’m in the process of putting together a photo album of the Burton/Heirloom 1911 Commander that shows all the little things that make it different & special compared to all the other Commanders out there.
That got me thinking about the Glock 19 I was carrying. Here’s what makes it different than all the other G19s out there:
By the way, the Gadget in front of the muzzle is the original test unit, which was made of aluminum, and has over 50,000 rounds through it. The production pieces will be steel, which is what all the other ones in the photo are made of (including the one on my carry gun, which you cannot see).
Train hard & stay safe! ToddG

Sweet! I sense Gadget ownership is becoming a reality soon ( crosses fingers, hopes and prays).

Unobtanium you mean, not steel or aluminum

That is a really unique G19!

Perhaps I missed this… why is the Burton gun not being carried at the moment??… I’m going to have to look through the forum to get to the bottom of this!

John K:
One part “my overall performance is better with the G.”
One part “I like more bullets.”
Three parts, coincident with this blog post, “It was one of a kind and if anything ever happened to it I’d jump off a cliff.”

Cool.
Glad I am not the only one with a couple safe queens which include a G17.

I really enjoy a gen4 g19. I feel it’s time for me to purchase one. Or maybe I should get a g23 in gen4.

Mine’s cooler. Serial number 007.

Dear Todd,
Please end our torment. Your health is most important to us. And second, is the gadget. But we do love you. Stop holding out on us.
Sincerely,
Glock AIWB Carriers

After all this time, I feel silly saying “soon” but I will tell you that we’ve taken some very major steps from both testing and production standpoints over the past year and particularly the last few months.
I wouldn’t be surprised if you heard news by the end of this month.

Donnie Gwinn, that serial # is only good for cool points if it’s on a Walther PPK or P99, and some folks would probably argue for the exclusion of the P99.

So what you’re saying is that there is sound logic behind your decision… I respect that.
