i don't know much about gun modifications but this looks great.  would look even cooler if it had their titanium nitride barrel in it.  what are the advantages of the slide cutouts?

[spanky 1]

Serrations=better grip

[FLHX 1]

The slide cuts are for weight reduction and looks.

They ruined a nice pistol.....just my opinion.

Yes...they did.

while i wouldn't pay for one i think it looks pretty good. the only thing i don't like is the holes cut into the slide. i just feel like that's one more place for dirt/lint to get into the slide and cause a malfunction. everything else seems to have a purpose and no drawbacks other than personal preference. undercut the trigger guard and reshape the beaver tail to get a higher grip. adding stippling for a better grip. lighten the trigger for better control. match barrel for better accuracy. they just have to keep that wolff spring out of there because it wasn't designed to use a single strand spring and it should be fine. from what i can gather that was the only malfunction this pistol had in 25000+ rounds. if they didn't mill the slide they wouldn't have had to use the wolff spring and that would have solved that problem.

Salient makes some really nice guns, BUT IMHO $2500 for a tier 1 glock? NO F-ING way.

Also not a fan of the Sig.

they dont make guns they modify guns. i dont see what modifications anyone could do to a glock that would cost $2000. thats assuming the other $500 is for the pistol.

So yes they do charge a shiteton of money.

However their Benelli package on a M2 field for 3gun is awesome.

There are too many guns out there that are way better than this.

Hell $1k buys you a Glock/M&P and enough components to make it better.

[n4p226r 105]

I wouldn't ever buy it. But I do find them interesting. I kinda like slide cutouts for some reason.

[ronhonda 86]

I like the slide cuts and many gunsmiths have been doing it for years. I just don't see myself spending that kind of money on a Glock. 1911, 2011 sure.

[n4p226r 105]

i guess the biggest problem is, for $2.5k, what would this do that a $900 sig with a $350 gray guns job wouldn't do?

[ronhonda 86]

Probably not much.
