also you guys should be less afraid of what people say, AND IF SOMETHING IS A GOOD VALUE OR WORKS, or works better, you should use it.

Besides glocks are ugly cheap POS that work, and people love them despite no full rails, plastic trigger, plastic sights, plastic guide rail, yet they still cost $550-600 and people buy them up like crazy even though you are getting “ripped off” if you compared to other guns with superior components, you are getting burned for $300 OR MORE! And there is nothing you can do about the half rails. If glock cared they would make the rails like a cz75 or sig 210. Glocks are designed to be cheap and profitable, not the best. Yet i never heard folks mention this.

They grew up for 20 years with glocks being cool, there for they are seen as cool, not ugly POS that just work surprisingly well.

Bolting something onto a glock ….. “gasp!” thats like bolting a wing on a ferrari or bentley. pssst.

old man glock has ZERO background in industrial design, and cared zero for looks, yet people act as if adding anything to a glock that straws from his inspired design is like pissing or tagging on the sistine chapel.

How is it inferior to a masterpiece arms mac10, uzi, or mp5?

Also comment on the sweetness of 33 rd glock mags, compared to the above makers mags and cost and availability.

This is two guns in one, and the quoted price is MSRP, not street price right?

I dont have a glock but tons of folks work on the trigger to the tune of $150 since its crap, the sights are shit, thats $120 for trijicons.

Basically if you have a glock or have a mp or xd, i assume in the near future, you will be able to turn the gun you own into a neat carbine for $400 something bucks.

If a glock 17 is converted to FA (only in THEORY!!!) with one of these back plate replacements, can the glock still be mounted into a Roni?

Since Glock parts are largely interchangeable between models you only need to SBR one Glock frame and can swap slides and ejectors to change calibers. The G20/G21 version is coming out soon and those frames are completely identical down to the ejectors so even easier to change calibers.

i am in canada & fwiw, we are only allowed 5-round magazines in ANY rifle, AR-15 & other carbines inc. also, to shoot a carbine, one needs to use licensed facilities where one signs a waiver & becomes a temporary member & then only in the rifle bays. so imagine the “fun” of taking your AR-15 there & shooting off 5-rounds, then reloading, the shooting off 5 then reloading … makes for a great rhythm hey?!

the roni g-1 is a fancy slip-cover as it were, but the positive is – as others have said – you get a super light-weight carbine when you want it & with merely slipping off the cover, a neat, safe & relatively accurate handgun with none of the hassle of carrying a full carbine.

i am licensed for both restricted & unrestricted weapons. carbines & handguns come under restricted. normal rifles & shotties come under unrestricted.

depends where you live!
