Will you buy this for a grand?

Not my cup of tea. I have no issue customizing your Glock to your tastes as I have a G29 with a camouflage slide and custom touches, but I despise the "battle-worn" look and find handguns with comic book-themed designs to be childish and most likely appealing to those who lack an appropriate amount of maturity to own firearms.
 
I wouldn't want to take the risk of not being taken seriously by having one of these pistols.
 
I imagine if adamantine claws were commercially available the marvel glock buyer would have a hard purchasing decision on his hands
 
I’m not offended by those. I think they’re kind of cool. Would I pay $1000? No. I wouldn’t pay anything for them. Simply not my thing.
 
I bet a jury would love that.....

Not my cup of tea, but as a range gun maybe.
 
Well OK then, you don't like Glocks. But what about an Iron Man 1911's that are battle worn?

I like color on my guns, I find all black exceedingly boring, so in general I like artistic work. I don't really like poly painted to look like metal or the "theme" guns, unless they are intentionality ridiculous, but still I can appreciate that someone else might like them.

I still have duracoated my 2011, but I may have to do something a little out there with it.
 
I frequent the GlockStore here and although some of the custom work is not to my particular taste, they have worked on a few of my guns, and the quality of the work is always top notch and they are really the nicest group of firearms pros that you would ever want to meet.
 
I don't mind custom guns. But it does take talent to make them good. It's very easy to over do it or get carried away with absurdity.

Just like with cars, there's a reason some guys get TV shows and some guys shop for stick on chrome at AutoZone.
 
I never liked the guns as art thing, not even engraving. It can be pulled off well, but it has to be pretty tasteful.

One user on here posted a picture of some Redhawk grips he had done where he embedded a 45 LC case head in the wood like a medallion; to me, that's perfect. On the other end of the spectrum you have the guns in the OP, which, nope.

Bubba'ing can be fun just for the enjoyment of working with your hands and building new skills like cold bluing or Cerakoting. But it's not something you usually want to show off (see that Colt Agent on the first page), and sure as hell not something you charge 2x MSRP for.
