Call Glock and tell them you would like your pistol updated. They will email you a form. Fill it out and send it with the gun. Shipping through an FFL is usually cheaper then going through FedEx or UPS. Wait two to three weeks before you get it back. That's it. |

What did all this cost me? $40 FFL transfer cost. One happy fucker right here... Why did you go through an FFL? Guns going back to the factory from the owner can be sent direct from you and then be sent directly back to your house. |

Glock's service really is pretty awesome. You don't even have to bother contacting them.
Just fill this form out and mail it in with your gun. Check the box off for having them install factory night sights for $57 while it's there  |

For $40 you could have ordered the guts of the pistol online that were worn or needed upgrading and done the work yourself.

I just sent my G19 back a few weeks ago and got it back. I paid $100 for a frame upgrade (it was a gen 2 frame that was fucked up with a dremel by a previous owner) and $20 for steel sights installed. Got the Glock back delivered to my door in 2 weeks. Pretty much every small part was replaced, all three mags were replaced brand new Glock OEM, and I got a Glock case back with it. Two of the mags I sent in were from the mid 90's and the other was a KCI. One mag had a 2 round aftermarket extension. Glock replaced that one with a new mag and a new glock mag + extension. My frame had an aftermarket extended mag release which Glock replaced with their own extended mag release.
Basically everything was replaced on the pistol except for the slide and barrel
Glock CS is second to none. |

Unless you have a FFL, you have to ship firearms 2nd day with UPS and Fedex. That's going to cost about the same. An FFL has access to cheaper shipping options. |

http://us.glock.com/documents/GLOCK%20Warranty.pdf On that form it lists a frame upgrade for $100. Does that mean your Gen 2 pistol will return with rails?

Don't really care about non matching serials. It has no bearing on anything for a pistol really. It's a completely different format than other glock serial numbers. |

I got an older non loaded chamber indicator extractor back with mine. I suppose it is probably new old stock machined as I dont think Glock has used this older type extractor in a long time. My Glock was built in 1988 and has Austrian proofs. It was a shame I had to replace the frame because it was messed up by the prior owner. |

That is actually mind blowing. How do they not lose money on this? Either way very cool. I am guessing it takes their armorers all of 15 minutes, possibly less, to slap those new parts on.

Because Glock parts are stupid cheap. My cost on every individual part in the upper is between 99 cents and 4 bucks. The lowers parts aren't much different. Doing this gets them sales. Great CS will sell more guns than most people realize. |

Great customer service is a sales driver. It doesn't cost the much in parts or labor, and the number of people who actually use this service (compared to the number of guns that they sell) is very small. It's just good business practice. |
