From the personal collection of Gaston Glock:

This very special GLOCK 22 (.40 caliber), known within the company as the “GLOCK Statue of Liberty Gun,” features an intricate, hand-engraved tribute to the Statue of Liberty. This theme was selected to recognize that GLOCK’s 25th Anniversary coincides with the 125th Anniversary of the Statue of Liberty.

Currently selling on Gunbroker for $13,000, no reserve.

If you end up wining the auction you also get to go on a 2 day one night hunting trip with R. Lee Ermey (The Gunny).  I’m assuming it also includes unlimited “choke” pictures and yelled insults from him… if not that sucks :P

I’m curious to see what the end price will be.  I know that engraving has got to be worth quite a bit, considering how long it must take… but there is obviously going to be a huge premium in this case considering this particular engraving job is directly from Glock’s collection and is a 1 of 1.

Thoughts?

Note: Enter the contest to win a copy of Glock: The Rise Of America’s Gun.  I’ve got 7 copies left to give away!

Somebody picked the wrong house:

Pretty big fail when he pulls the G17 out of the safe, and it has the trigger depressed (0:17).   Not a lot of good that will do!   Kind of a big thing to overlook when your target market is people that know guns.

Somebody picked the wrong diner:

I hope Gunny takes some time out to enjoy his old age, and not just be one of those guys that will continue to work until the day he dies!

All the appearances etc. that he does must get pretty exhausting.

I wonder if Glock needs a hype man? I should apply.

These are too good:

R. Lee Ermey will never have time to retire at the rate he’s going. It seems his in more commercials, and making more appearances now than ever!

The game looks like it might be a lot of fun.
