[QUOTE="Glock 'em down, post: 3075308, member: 684"] When the Glock 19X was first announced, I was ecstatic! :w000t: I was one of the very few members here who had said so. I had always dreamed of a G17 frame with a G19 slide. To me it just seemed like it would be more balanced. Kinda like a Colt Commander or something. So, today I was in my local shop and lo and behold, there sat the Glock 19X. :w000t::w000t: I picked it up...[I]GAWD[/I] it felt glorious. :heart: I gently held it as if it were a 17th century Stradivarius. I went over it with a fine tooth comb and loved the way they took the little half moon cutout away and replaced it with a little pinky lip, if you will. I loved the slightly extended and more rounded magazine catch and I adored the way they slapped a set of night sights on it from the factory. Everything seemed like pure and simple "Glock Perfection" up to this point. Then, there's the color. :scratch: I absolutely love, [I]LOVE[/I], [I][SIZE=5]LOVED[/SIZE][/I] the coyote tan color of the frame. I love all of Glocks earth toned pistols whether it's OD, FDE or BFG and this CT will also be a nice addition. :thumb: But I absolutely fricken' hate, [I]HATE,[/I] [I][SIZE=5]HATED[/SIZE][/I] the metallic color of the slide. :disappoin If the slide had been black I woulda bought it on the spot. But alas, me and my deniro both walked out the door with tears in our eyes. :cry3: Maybe some day soon, the brains over at Glock will make the 19X with a black slide. When they do, you can bet yer ass, I'll be first in line to snatch one up. :rubhands: [/QUOTE]
