We all have dreamed about having our own time machine. Some of us would travel back to witness historical events, visit with distant ancestors or to memorize next week’s winning lottery numbers. But those of us who are true firearms aficionados often drift off to a place where classic, rare or historic guns are actually obtainable. Once your hands were filled with pre-1986 machineguns, most collectors would gravitate towards their core interests. For me, one of those guns would be a low serial number, new-in-box GLOCK Gen 1 G17. Today, Lipsey’s and GLOCK have offered us the next best thing: a classic edition GLOCK P80 that takes you back to where it all started. First in 1981 and later in 1982, Gaston Glock submitted the G17 pistol for the Austrian Military handgun contract. That pistol won the trials and was designated the Pistole 80 or P80. The first GLOCK made available for purchase in the United States was the G17 in 1986, followed shortly after by the G17 Gen 2 in 1988. In comparison to all the other GLOCK generations sold in the U.S., there are very few first generation GLOCK 17’s in circulation. Over a three year period, Lipsey’s worked with GLOCK to produce the closest possible reproduction of the original Pistole 80 as possible. Due to environmental regulations, the Tennifer finishing process once used on the slide is no longer allowed, so the P80 gets the Gen 3 nDLC treatment. Early P80 guns also used a pencil barrel, later followed by the 14mm barrel. Austrian P80 guns are marked with the serial number just on the slide and barrel, not also on the frame like in the U.S. The P80 designation obviously predates the 80% build company – this pistol is 100% manufactured by GLOCK and distributed exclusively by Lipsey’s. For GLOCK fans and collectors, this is the closest you can get to owning one of Gaston’s original guns. Lipsey’s Exclusive GLOCK P80 Gen 1 Pistol – Specifications This is a 100% factory made GLOCK.
