Lone Wolf 1911-Style Glock 17/22 (G17/22) Pistol Frame (Polymer Grip Frame) with Extended Beavertail Tang: Glock Meets 1911 Pistol for the Best of all Worlds? (Pics!)

Editor’s Note: DefenseReview will be publishing some more articles on Glock pistols outfitted with aftermarket Glock pistol accessories we like–some of which we used on our technical/tactical shooting training trip in Bellingham, WA these past few weeks–in the very near future, so stay tuned. If you’re a Glock owner/user like us, you’ll definitely want to read them!

NICE!!!!

I’ll continue to stick with my Beretta 92F & HK USP .45 Tactical. I’m not fond of either the Glock or the 1911, though I do acknowledge that they are VERY nice handguns. They just aren’t my first preference. I’m also a big fan of Springfield XDs.

Both great guns and well worth the cost. But if you don't have all that money and still need a good, low-cost, guaranteed, American-made firearm, check out Hi-Point.

I think it has more to do with the grip size and angle than the actual looks of the thing.

I bought my GLOCK 19 (9 mm)a month or so ago.....I liked it soooo much that I am buying a GLOCK 20 (10 mm) next month.

I was, as you can guess, really impressed with my GLOCK on the range.

Heck, I think that sucker may be slightly uglier than my G 17.
Will be interesting to read reports about it down the road.

I cant understand what purpose the beavertail has on a striker fired weapon,

What is that thing on the barrel? Compensator for gangsta shooters?

What an abortion. I build custom 1911’s. That obscenity in the picture is the worst of all worlds.

It’s either a Glock, or it isn’t. It’s either a 1911, or it isn’t.

Never the twain shall meet.

I was eager to see a picture of this pistol, until I saw a picture of it. The beaver tail makes it look like someone put a non-matching frame on the gun. It’s ugly. Between this and some of the ugly squared off cars I see people driving around, it makes me wonder just what the heck they’re teaching in design and engineering schools these days.
