Extras like that on a Glock seem to not maintain their value well at all, so if you stipple, cut your slide, or do any other overhauling, do it for yourself and not for a potential increase in value. I got a g34 "dragonfly" for $800 last year and a g35 with milled slide, rmr02, suppressor sights, fulcrum trigger, carver mag well, titanium pins, high end holsters, and extra barrel for $700 right before that. Great deals at that price but no telling what the original owner had in that g35. That second seller would have gotten much more parting out that G35. The rmr alone is a $350+ resale optic. Could probably have squeezed a couple hundred out of the other parts and holsters after reinstalling the oem ones. |

When they come to their senses (as some must when it doesn't sell), I might scoop up a -Zev on the cheap. However, I would only pony up >1k for a Colt or Dan wesson 1911.
Otherwise, the only glocks that catch my interest is bone stock with night sights and in 10mm flavor. |

Whenever I see a custom gun for sale I assume someone lost a job/divorce. No way you just get "tired" of something you made your own like that. I can see where I person may have decided they'd gone a bit too far and it was easier to sell and start over, especially when you make permanent modifications to the registered part. And I imagine that sort of person is desperate to get back what they put into it. |

I recently needed a complete upper slide assembly for a Gen 4-19. I was astounded at the pricing of the ZEV and zev-like slides. $1000+ just boggles my mind. Gen 3-19 complete slide assembly and lower parts kit for $497 ????? A brand new Gen 3 is still $499, right? Crazy. Edit: I almost decided to just buy a complete new gun, keep the slide and sell the rest. Most of the slides were going for around $400 all day long. Lucked out and scored mine for $300. Probably still should have just bought a complete piece and parted out the rest. |

Who give a shit what price a man chooses to ask for his item for sale? Either you're a buyer at that price or you move along and find something that you can afford. Complaining or ridiculing someone for their price just makes one like a lowlife looking for accommodation from strangers. Idiots.... indeed, find some self-respect. We found the guy selling the ZEV |

If you're selling a used Glock for more than $700, it damn well better come with a MRDS and a shit-ton of mags, or a blowjob.
Stipple jobs aren't a money-maker. Nobody cares who did it or how much it cost, as stippling is entirely personal preference. Bubba-job stippling is usually a detractor. I don't particularly care for replacing FCG components on a weapon that I'd carry. All the common reliability problems people have with custom pistols are from hammer/striker springs and lightened parts. Optic cut slides can be helpful or painful for resale value. If you have a general cutout that uses different mounts, it's worth more than an ATEI cutout made specifically to fit your preferred optic that may or may not fit other optics. Slide cutouts are gayer than two boys fucking.  Lightening the slide to reduce the chance of problems due to adding a MRDS is one thing; adding more points of ingress for debris is not. Lightening the slide so you can use a lighter recoil spring and pud-loaded competition ammo can cause too many problems for me to even consider it.
Fitted barrels... Good, if done correctly. If they're half-assed, then they're more trouble than they're worth. Frankly, match barrels on a duty pistol are about as useful as a 12" dick on a girl. 2" or 3" at 25 yards is more than acceptable from a service pistol, more than that is unnecessary unless you're a competition shooter. |

Yeah, it's always a good idea to permanently alter a poly frame and expect full price out of it at resale.
A "custom" built Glock (even if done well) is a far cry from a equally well built custom M1911 because in the end it's still a Glock. Not knocking a Glock but that's just the way the gun world works. It would be the same with any poly pistol. |

Had a buyer do that to me once a few years ago, left me waiting to meet him after working all day. He sent a text at the meet time saying he was going to be a couple minutes late, never showed up at all and wouldnt reply or answer his phone when I called. Found his facebook page, saved a pic and kept bumping his M4M ad on CL asking for dick pics to be sent to his cellphone current for a couple months afterwards. Had a buyer do the same thing, said he'd be a little late and never showed. Since I was far from home where we were set to meet I stuck around for a little over an hour, no go. Messaged me the very next day apologizing, said he lost his phone or whatever but still wanted the stuff. Told him if he wanted them still he could come meet me on my side of town before work, again no call no show. The little fucker then sends me another message later in the day stating "Let's try again tomorrow buddy."  You fucking serious?!
This was off a local FB meet and swap, one of the now private ones. Nice thing about those is you can "investigate" your buyer beforehand, getting an idea of who you'd be meeting. This dude served two tours in Iraq and was honorably discharged from the Marines as a Sergeant. I thought this would have been a done deal, I guess not... |

Ive shot 2 different Zev glocks and 2 different Agency Arms glocks and they were very nice guns. I would never buy one because I didnt think what I was shooting was worth $3k but if someone with the disposable income wants to buy one go for it. Spending $3k on something doesnt always directly equate to getting $3k worth of tangible goods, there is obviously a "luxury brand" factor like in nearly every other area of consumer good. Take clothing for example, you can buy a $3k designer sweater or a $80 normal sweater, is one physically $2,920 "better" or "worse" than the other? No
