Awesome pick, havent shot mine yet but should have my Talon grips in the mail Monday!
Maybe they just didn't want to come down enough on the price and figured they'd end up getting the contract eventually via the "trickle down" effect. Since the tip of the spear folks are carrying Glocks, eventually everyone else will want them also, like berets.
Picked up a Glock 19X at Rural King today. The 12% rebate brought the price down to just under the Blue Label price quoted by srjco without the ~ two month waiting list.
Its the exact opposite of what everyone really has been wanting, a 17 slide on a 19 frame for the grip reduction. Good thing for 3rd parties that will do that to a 17!

I know a couple of guys that have built the 17 with the frame cut to 19 size and I've handled them but never shot one. I was absolutely sure I would not like the "X" but shot one today and I changed my opinion. If it was black or gray I would consider it but I can't abide a tan pistol. I'm sure the normal black will be available eventually and I'll probably buy one.I feel like this is the only opinion of this gun that I'll ever have.
I've never known Jenkins to carry anything more than the plain jane glocks.
