I reaf that the Tupperware name came from the plastic boxes that Glocks had come in originally (maybe they still are) that resemble Mall Ninja Tupperware tubs, with the addition of a molded hole through the body to run a locking bar or cable through for securing boxed Glocks.

Actually, TupperWare is a term used to describe Glocks because of their Polymer Components.

Nice choice I own an G26 and a G36 and both work well for me. I've thought about an LCP myself. Good luck.



The term tupperware gun came from the fact that Glocks used to come in tupperware container for department purchase (or other large batch orders).

People are more likely to call it "plastic gun" because of its polymer design.

My container has a hole in middle. They don't use those anymore. Maybe it's an antique or collectible.

Haven't named it yet. Anyone have any ideas? I just call it a box or case.
