I gave $395 for a BNIB G37 a few months ago. Someone might pay more.

Is your G17 a gen 4? What does the part number on the case state? I was thinking that the 'OD' green frames were gen 3's. There was a FDE recently. Presently there is a BFG green. They are in gen 4 as well (both were). Prior to that there was a grey frame. In the serial number, if it came from Glock as a colored frame, it will (most of the time) have the color code at the end of the part number. Lypsies usually order lots in differnt colors. Their the ones who brought BFG and grey frames and FDE frames.
Glock did a OD frame years back I do know in gen 3. Cerakoted frames not the same. |

Glock stopped producing guns in colors several years ago, basically saying unless a distributer was willing to make a large commitment (vaguely remember 10K per model 100K total, although I could be wrong) they would produce them.
Since that time frame.... FDE, OD, and Gray glocks have all been produced for different distributors. Original OD glocks were made pre-gen4, so if you have a gen4 OD.... you have a fairly recent production. Nothing all that special, some people will pay more for them, other won't. I see a lot of low round count colored models in LGS that are used and for sale. ~g |

Thanks for all the replies guys. The box has a red label that says G17 GEN4 OD FXD 5.5 LB
I can email someone a couple of pics if they would post them for me. BB ETA: I bought it second hand in 2013 if I recall. I don't know how long the guy before me had it. |

Been keeping my eye out for a new or used gen 4 17 under $450. Haven't been successful for a few months now...

Glock resale values are strong now. They have increased over the past year. Good luck getting a used G19 for bargin price as well.

When I bought my grey Glocks, the G17 was same price as black; my G19 was 30.00 higher; my G21 was same price as black. All three were different sellers.
