Maybe if I had Intercooler bucks.  :P

The only criticism I might have is the fact that they "ported" the slide. I think this just invites snow, ice, and debris into the action of the gun. This might not matter for a range queen or maybe a carry gun that only sees the holster, but for a woods gun I would have to say it's not good. This past November when I was deer hunting over in PA during a snow storm, I had a lot of snow and ice get into the bolt action of my Remington model 700 which froze it shut. I had to really hit the bolt handle a few times in order to loosen it up. Now, this would have given me only one shot on a deer which is really no big deal. But on a defensive firearm it certainly can be a big deal.

Interesting gun though!

Why try to make an ugly pistol pretty?

I like my ugly pistol because it works.  It is already light for a 10mm, and I don't think shaving metal off the slide is the greatest idea.  Having one go boom, I wouldn't want any of the poly stuff removed either.  I'll pass on that one, but I'm sure the mall ninjas will think its cool.

The only part of the Glock frame I would modify id the area of the trigger guard as it meets the grip, cutting upward and widening it does allow a slightly higher grip and lessens the pinch on the top of the middle finger knuckle.

But anyone can do that mod with very little effort.

Another cool one I have found that I would be really interested in is the STI perfect 10. A little rich for my blood but a nice 6" 1911 with double stack magazines is amazing.

My custom made Fusion Firearms 6" long slide Hunter costs less than that thing!
