Glock 18 pistol

[choo---choo]

When did this weapon come out for sale ?

[Jon_L]

This is news to me. Kinda makes me want a Class 3 license, now.

I don't think there are any transferable (Pre-1986) Glock 18s on the market.

[BrasilNuts]

Do you know someone who has one for sale?

First produced in 1988. None came to the US until 1990. There are NO legally transferable Glock 18s in the US. The only way to have one is to 1) be a law enforcement agency, or 2) a NFA dealer with a demonstration request from #1, or 3) a NFA manufacturer and make your own from a Glock 17.

Well I came across this on U-Tube so I thought I would ask.

He appears to be at a machine gun shoot, so it's likely someone, or maybe even he, had a legally possessed G18 there.

That being said....they are a blast to shoot! Those 33 round mags get swallowed up quick!

Look for the you tube video where a guy shoots himself in the hand with the 18.

Doesn't have to be law enforcement. I'm pretty sure that was James DeGroat's G18. He owns DeGroat Tactical Armament, which specialize in M134 Mini Guns. That video was taken at Knob Creek a few years ago by the way. They were testing a MP5 Beta Mag that had been converted to fit in the Glock.

I'm curious as to how he doesn't "act" like a LEO?

Imagine this

vs. this

Acting like a "cop" is very obvious. The funny thing is that most of the MG guys I know fall more into the latter than former.....

As stated earlier, you don't have to be law enforcement. Also, that is not a G18. Looks like a converted G17 (notice the silver colored attachment to the back of the slide.......also, G18s have a ported barrel and slide, the one in the video does not.). Before you ask, the conversions are subject to the same NFA rules as the G18.

Not all G18s do. There is the G18, which doesn't have any ports. And the G18C which is compensated just like all the other "C" model Glocks.

G18 come in G18 and G18c (ported barrel and slide)

Also you are correct G18s have the selector on the left side of the slide - Converted Glocks have it in the rear of the slide its self.

Ahh....I see. All of the G18s I have seen have been the compensated type. I guess I thought that was the only way they came.

Either way, they are a blast to shoot.
