Any Glock collectors out there? If so, what’s your favorite piece in your collection and what are you hunting now? My avatar is my Gen 1 Glock 17L. I would love to pick up a Gen 1 Glock 19 or an early Gen 2.
It is my understanding that there were only a very few Gen 1 G19s and the frames were actually modified G17 frames.I would love to pick up a Gen 1 Glock 19...

The gun cant go into the case, unless the trigger has been tripped. You cant put a "loaded" gun in it, or, at least one with the trigger "cocked".Holy crap, I’ve never seen the inside of an early Glock case. This seems like an extremely unsafe design, a ND waiting to happen.

Maybe if you forced it.Not in my experience- The version of the case that came with my brother's G17 would absolutely fire the trigger when a cocked pistol was set into it.

So Gaston was right... you can’t put a cocked Glock INTO the case.Not in my experience- The version of the case that came with my brother's G17 would absolutely fire the trigger when a cocked pistol was set into it.

The three cases I had, that post blocked the gun going into the box, if the trigger was ready to fire. The trigger had to be in the rearward, fired position, like in the pic above, for the gun to go into the box.
Now, maybe, if you were to try and force the gun in there, yea, I could see that it might fire. But I would think that you would have to work at it to get it to happen, and I would really hope you were intelligent enough to know something wasnt right if it wasnt dropping right in.
But, people are people, and given that, I suppose anything could happen.
I would call probably less than 20 in existence of the Gen 1 G19 pretty rare. They are approaching $10k in value among collectors, which is nothing to sneeze at.
What would really be rare in regards to Glocks would be to see a thread about Glocks and not see posts where people are verbally peeing all over them...now THAT would be RARE!
When you brand yourself "Perfection", your are asking for every bit of pee coming your way.
