Then you would be in hog heaven down here. You can't walk into a pawn shop or a gun shop and not find a bunch of used Glocks.

Somehow I think Travis has connections to get NIB Glocks and M&P's for sub $400.

It's part of his UA endorsement deal.

Had no idea we had that kind of celebrity amongst us.

Lucky, we are.

It was likely Clark's Glock customization vid complete with "proof" target that pushed him into the land of celebrity freebees.

With an interweb brimming with posers offering tactical advice, the BS stops, and the hammer drops when Clark steps in front of the camera..........

This meteoric rise should have him at SHOT signing posters next year.

Jason Statham will play the the role of Clark in Clark of the Hi-Line, premiering Summer 2018. Bruce Willis was just too old to keep up with the Clark character.

How 'bout Ryan Phillippe? He's already done Bob Lee Swagger.

I do realize it's reaching, him trying to do The Flave.

I think Wahlberg did a good job, but I can't imagine Ryan Phillippe playing a Swagger..............and for sure not Clark.

For the fast action sequences, and UBER tactical scenes, I think Statham was the right choice.

Obviously Dave will be there as a technical advisor to make sure things are done correctly. The studio wanted to hire Seagal, but Dave said NO. Plus Seagal is rumored to play a Blackfoot chief/undercover CIA agent in the film.

Is this the one that shows the family lineage with Clint Eastwood playing himself as Clark's grandfather, and Chuck Norris playing himself as Clark's father? No grandmother or mother is in the line; that much testosterone just impregnates a rock and the child is born ready to eat steaks raw and wash it down with straight whiskey.

Exactly.............though only in voice-overs for Clark's inner thoughts as he stares off into the distance, deciding who's azz to kick next.

I would be disappointed in that rusty gun. Then get the oil and 0000 steel wool, elbow grease. It'll be OK, bet it will work just fine.

i have bought on the other hand several handguns, rifles, and shotguns that were L.E.
Most came out of california
The handguns were new in the box, sat in inventory some place till they upgraded the model then the agency dumped them.
the rifle had the factory grease still in it.
the only one that did show a little exterior rust was a remington 870 that spent it's life in a patrol car.
I know the agency it came from. Some oil and 0000 steel wool, no more issue.
And i have ran into a few that had to take the periodic qualification run more than once. perfect one foot groups at ten or 15yards.

Cars, sure...guns..hardly. Not really the same thing.



A Remington 870 police magnum is about the only firearm I'd buy used from my department and I would look that over real close. Everything else is pretty well wore out and not worth the hassle of getting it back to good condition. Certainly nothing I'd stake my life on. I would rather buy a new pistol and not one that has 10K plus rounds through it. Perhaps other departments don't shoot as much. Glocks are cheap new.
