Oh, didn't realize that it was you from memory. That gun is fantastic. As you know, I have JQ100. There will be an article about it in a soon to be published Glock collector literature that I'll share with you guys once it's out.It’s your collection that I’m envious of! And you already saw the auction go down so you’re in the know.
I’m $10K lighter but they are some beautiful gen1’s
You just found that incredible gun at a gun store unappreciated for what it was?????? AMAZING gun. WOW.

"Good collector piece" is like saying that Kate Upton is attractive LOL.Not sure what I did to make pics appear 3 times. Sorry to all. The only marks on this gun are on top and on side of the slide where it sits on the high spots inside these boxes. I wish it didn't have them and it would be an absolute perfect virtualky untouched time capsule. The "Best in the Market" sticker on top is still beautiful white and no yellowing at all. Overall a good colkector piece IMHO.
It's a pain. I always get screwed up with pics here.Not sure how to delete the duplicates.
The thing that's esp cool is that the manual, sticker, etc are perfect. I've seen guns not touched but stored in sub-optimal conditions where the paper yellows, etc. Yours looks perfect.That DA was literally in a time capsule, amazing. Good job!
It's not felt. Felt is absorbent. It's an inert material that I got from Gaylord Archival.GH is it you that is putting felt pieces on those "humps" inside the boxes to keep those marks from appearing on the slides?? I was thinking I should do something to keep that scarring from getting any worse over the years to come. What are collectors of these guns in these early boxes doing to mitigate this?
Indeed, as I had mentioned to you guys in the past, I was offered $20K for mine totally unsolicited shortly after I bought it. It's of course totally complete, non-KS ABC and with an entirely known provenance. That said, that was shortly after the last KS ABC one that has ever sold on GB in a true auction brought $6725 IIRC. They've gone way past that now.20K for a Gen 1 19 huh??............. hmmmmmm........
CK if you can find one of the few owners willing to part with theirs at that price you would be doing well. I thought 17L said 25k would buy his.
Cmon some of you here with multiples of those... Let’s get one up on GB.
You know who I am talking to....
