Ed Brown Special Forces Gen III

The Special Forces features the following: 5" Government model slide, single stack government model frame. The John Browning traditional design for the ultimate in reliability and accuracy. Weight: approximately 38 ounces with an unloaded magazine inserted. Exclusive Chainlink III treatment on forestrap and mainspring housing for the ultimate in durability,secure grip,and extreme use. Optional Gen III coating for low glare, superior rust protection, and improved wear resistance. Traditional "square cut" serrations on rear of slide only. Fixed dovetail 3-dot night sights with high visibility white outlines. Recoil Spring: 16.5 lbs. Chainlink III treatment on frame and housing. Recoil spring guide & plug. Gen III is made up of a special formulation that offers the best wear resistance and corrosion protection known to date. Wear is significantly improved over traditional oxide bluing, and is even better than older chemistry polymers. Wear is still possible, and nothing will PREVENT wear, but you will find that wear will occur slower than bluing, and Gen III will outperform other polymers in a Taber abrasion test. Gen III has a 9H hardness test which is maximum for this scale.

Glock 23

The G17 Gen5 features a no finger grooved, multiple backstrapped, rough textured frame with hundreds of miniature spikes which results in remarkable traction for extreme environments and gloved operators. The frame also features a smooth trigger, reversible mag release, and ambidextrous slide stop. The magazine comes with a floor plate which is extended at the front for faster magazine change, and a orange follower, while the flared mag-well makes it easier to funnel the magazine into the mag-well. Glock\'s nDLC finish provides a tougher, more durable protection against corrosion and scratching. The Glock Marksman barrel features a barrel rifling which delivers improved accuracy. his Glock Gen5 model has AmeriGlo night sights (green with orange outline front and green rear) and a 10-round capacity.
