I'm a bit disheartened by some of the replies here. I get that everyone likes their own style, but some people like to customize a bit and like a little bit of color or distinction in their guns. Like calling it gay or "imbecilic". I don't know, I just don't think it's that big of a deal, and certainly not worth being insultingly derisive or hateful about. Disappointing attitude, to me. I've color-filled some rollmarks, built a pink AR for myself, and even had one Shield Cerakoted in pink and Hello Kitty hydrodipped for a lady friend who was special at the time. I think it came out pretty nice, though it's not something I'd personally want as my BBQ rig.

But oh well... I'll continue to do things as I see fit, not worrying about what some traditionalist considers appropriate.


Carry on.


<edit> And I will tell ya, that personalized Shield made one hell of an impression and earned way more than the cost and trouble it took to obtain in gratitude in the long run! :hey3:

I agree. I like it when people arent afraid to make it theirs whether I agree with what they did or not. I like seeing something different. The stuff that I have done to my own and friends, Im sure at least half the people hate. And a few that I have done for others, I sure wouldnt want to do to my own. But thats what they wanted and they were happy and they can be proud of something different than all the other black ones when they pull theirs out at the range. Im of the opinion of, do it however the hell you want and screw everybody else.

This really isn't that serious boys. People give opinions on firearms all the time. I guarantee you if I post a Wilson 1911, someone will get all turnt and talk about how their cheap glock is just as good.... same thing if someone posts a $3000 AR..... and so on. We are looking at $2000 Glock and if I think it looks retarded, gay, etc then I'll say so.... but I'd still shoot it.... they probably shoot really nice.... it has to be a major improvement over stock lol. :D

Also... keep in mind there are worse things to do to a Glock....speaking of gaaaaaay!
