The Obligatory Show Off Thread

[SeriousStudent]

Dude, I love those pens! Cheap, tough, and great to write with. I still have the first one I bought. It survived seven years of patrol work and five years of grad school. Not bad for an $8 pen.

May I ask what pen it is and who makes it? I have one of the original Surefire pens, but I am always looking for inexpensive, durable spares.

Thanks very much.

It's a Zebra F-701, available at pretty much any place that sells pens. Good cheap every day option.

I29- I like it. Good combo of stuff I have (pen, SAK, and BOB) and stuff I want (PPS, P'kal).

I appreciate it. Its a good setup for me. G19 is my main carry, but the PPS sure is sweet.

Thanks, NickA, I appreciate it. I did find an interesting blog post about how to make an all-metal Zebra pen and pencil set.

I saw someone else do this with a G19, and was like "I can do that!!". So I found a good deal on a G22 (because of free .40 ammo) and went to work. Took about 1.5hrs total. Will have it on the range Tuesday.

167, was it cut down to use G27 mags? Looking forward to hearing the range report. Nice work, BTW.

Old school Glock box from the factory. The first G19 Gen 2 I bought came in one of these.
