Tons of people rely on them for self-defense but I'll challenge anyone to cite someone bragging on their collection of tupperware guns.

I have a buddy who I've known since childhood who collects all things Glock. I know he has 1st gen, pistols/mags along with all the generations. (The 1st gens have become very pricy and collectible.) He has all the factory colored frames, and textures of the many different models and some variations I've never heard of. He has a number of LE agency marked pistols. He even managed to find a non import marked LE only G25 .380 on Gunbroker years ago!
The one variation I want that he has is a European proofed G19 that was imported about 10 or 15 years ago and the G25.
BTW, I also have a small collection of Glocks.
My point is whatever you can think of, someone somewhere collects it.
