Did it break or crack the receiver?

by the way, welcome to the forum

Why would one put a lanyard on a pistol anyway?

Some other recent new member posted his frame was cracked in that same area and he got a new frame from Glock under warranty not sure if that would apply to you.

By design......just asking for problems,

Post a picture. Im sure Im not the only one that would like to see this. And why would you need one?

 

[SHOOTER13]

Gotcha...that little hole eh !

Yeah I'm not sure what purpose this would serve aside from not losing your gun, but then again, that's what a retention holster is for.

If it is just cracked, you might be able to melt the polymer back together. I would try to find someone that has experience doing that first. Also, it won't be as strong as it originally was. x2 on sending back to glock, they will probably replace it under warranty.

I just want to see what he's talking about. If just the lanyard broke, that's a lesson learned. But if the receiver broke, well, send it back and hope for the best.

It sounds like he broke the hole in the frame.

Yeah unfortunately it does. I guess this is also a lesson learned. Not every "tacticool" item is worth getting.

It crack ,all the way down to the receiver.well if you don't know is crack you won't notice.

Contact Glock and see what they will do about it. Sorry to hear it man.

hence why I wouldnt put a lanyard on my glock.... never understood the mentality for it, but hey, if you like it, more power to it

So how does one get a lanyard attached to their Glock stuck on a tree branch? My only thought on this was the OP bailed out of his glider, parachuted, and landed in some trees. He cut himself free from the parachute cords and was climbing down the tree whan Sasquatch showed up. At this point the OP drew his G21 and killed Sasquatch. As the OP was trying to reholster his G21 the tree branch he was sitting on broke and his Glock got stuck on the tree branch. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. Yeah, that's the ticket.

My blackhawk lanyard hooks onto my G21 this way, I don't have a clip on mine:

but I got the lanyard plug instead of using the hole: http://www.midwayusa.com/product/17...ock-17-19-20-21-22-23-gen-3-and-earlier-black

The reasons I have a lanyard is 1.) when SHTF and I have to bug out I don't want to loose my firearm regardless of what I am doing and 2.) because I can lol

I got a question (just wondering), if a lanyard is so useless why do military personal use them on their rigs? Mostly attached to their vest.

Nice story!!! Lol



that's the crack and the small key holder that came with the lanyard.. That little thing is tougher than polimer.
