So I've seen this picture three times already in the last 24hrs. Is this for real? Suppose to debut at the NRA Convention this weekend. I'll be there so I will see if I can find it. Anyone got any information on it or is this total BS? I'm still leaning toward it being total bull shit! I just don't think it worth it for Glock.

I'm going to go with total BS, BUT, I've been very very wrong before. That picture looks totally photoshopped to me.

I have no clue why they went to a hammer fired gun. I remember talk of a Glock 1911 back in 2010-11 time period.

If it's actually reliable, I'm all for it. I wonder what the blue label pricing will look like.

Just found that pic on google. I think you are correct in that it's a total hoax. I will take my lashings for creating turmoil.

I'm very, very skeptical. While I can somewhat see the point and viability of a 1911-style removable bushing slide, the re-engineering of the Gen4 frame for 1911 fire controls (and the probable increase in receiver rail length) would seem to be dauntingly resource - and cost-prohibitive-and out of sych with Glock's purportive business model as I understand it.

It would also seem to be at cross-purposes, both conceptually and market-wise to the G41.

I'm suspecting a photoshop exercise here more than anything else.

Best, Jon

You didn't get yours already? You missed them at Shot 2011? They were only available in 45 GAP for a short time.

Damn, I knew I should have went that year.

I'm sure someone around here snagged one.

Combining the benefits of a Glock and 1911 have been the goal of some serious efforts. I have no personal experience with the result, but the idea is intriguing.

Huh. Not exactly a 1911, but a hammer fired Glock may be in the works after all.

That article starts with "This article has multiple issues."

I didn't read any further.

The Glock 1911 picture has been circulating around the 'webs for about 5 years now.

They don't appear to have been manufactured in substantial quantity... probably for a reason

And they come with forums and years of experience of people using them, it's like they've been beta tested already.

I'm actually sorta curious now...if Glock actually did make a 1911, who would be angrier....Glock fanboys or 1911 fanboys? :D
