How to make a plain jane glock, less ordinary

[defyreality]

so my buddy and I had too much free time last week, and got upto no good with our glocks.
takes 5-10 minutes to put on, depending on how meticulous you are, and removes clean in seconds.

disregard the actual content on the skins, it's meant to be as non-serious as we could come up with. i think we nailed it with the most recent one on my G23.

My G23



and one of our earlier ones on my G17 (hello kitty, half & half)




and my 1911 (tight pattern hello kitty black/olive camo. didn't print as i had expected, but whatever)

No disregarding necessary. A glock with Care Bears on it is mint. Id put that on my G21 in a heart beat.

is that just wallpaper?

When, oh when will somebody do this with My Little Pony? Then I'll have an excuse to buy another gun, "for my daughters."

 

[defyreality]

haha, i'm actually working on a my little pony one.

it's printed vinyl, like they use for car wraps/signage.

So how does it work?

 

[Denka]

how this is holding after range trip?

Shot the G17 yesterday. Worked flawlessly, still looks flawless. Powder residue around the muzzle wipes right off.
It's essentially a sticker, that holds it's form rather well once it's in there.

hilarious!

Of course they are now non-restricted lol, not very scary if you get my drift...lol

 

[defyreality]

If only it worked that way. That would make sense based on their non-sence.

Could you imagine how many Hello Kitty Ar-15s there would be if this were true? You'd see thousands of guys dressed in camo, hunting with pink and white ARs lol.

So how do you make one? A certain printer?

 

[defyreality]

so they have been too the range and cleaned a few times, and are holding up pretty well. powder residue wipes right off, and the heat from firing makes this stuff stick better.

it's a vinyl printer of some kind for signage and the like.

Maybe if we did this to those nasty "Assault Rifles" that aren't people wouldn't think they are evil and want to ban them.

So, you just moisten (heat) the adhesive side and stick it on?

Good meeting you guys at the range a couple wknds ago. Those vinyl jobs had me fooled. They looked factory. Get the Barney one done yet? lol

no heating required. it's more or less a semi stretchy sticker. apparently heating it can help stretch and smooth it out. and heat is supposed to help lock in it's shape. i only heated it a little the stretch it into the serration on the slide of the g17. the carebear one i didn't bother, and it turned out fine.

i totally forgot about the barney one. gonna have to get that one and a my little pony one done. the others have grown on me and i don't want to redo them. i guess i'll have to buy more pistols

 

[Boostgod]

You should sell these for glocks. I want the care bear one!

 

[FallenShadow80]

I agree, you should definitely sell these. I would buy a My little Pony one. My daughters would go nuts over it.
