is this a big deal to have?  how much extra is it worth?

To me it is worth zero. Would it be neat, sure, but I’m not paying for “neat”. Especially on a user gun with no collector value.

For carry guns, worthless.  Not gonna pay extra for something like that.  Sure, for a collector, maybe, he could then sell them to someone who thought they were worth more because of that.

father/son, granddad/grandson, for some would be nice, not me.

I could see that reasoning, that'd be pretty cool.

I would pay retail price for a Glock 19 bearing my initials as the first 3 of the serial.  Unfortunately, this does not exist, because all such serial numbered guns were 27s.

At least you can get your initials if you change your mind and want a 27. I'm stuck with having a J for a initial, so thats not going to happen for me...

Me too, why not?  Guess I'll have to wait to find one with my bday as numbers.  Haven't seen one yet...

OP: Worth nothing extra IMO

They use it for prototypes, but i think they follow German style for proof marks, so they just don't use J at all in any serial or proof mark. not 100% sure if that's the reason they dont use it....

not worth any more than any other glock.  I had 3 consec. G19's, came like that when I bought them at regular price.  Sold them off 1 by one.  If you ever want consec. SN's, just order 2 guns.

This would be cool.

A three generation set (Grandfather, Father, Son) would be really cool.

Me and a buddy bought OD 19s that had consecitive serial numers.  Once my son was born I traded with him to get his so me and my son would have matching G19s.

(to go with consecutive M9s and LaRue lowers )

Oh

When we order multiple of the same gun, for whatever reason, they are almost always NOT consecutive serial numbers.  Perhaps the distributors we order from suck at stacking things up.

I don't care about consecutive serial numbers on guns myslelf but if you want them, just ask the distributor to see if he can get them for you.  It isn't that hard to for the salesman to to arrange it, it just would depend on whether or not he wants to go the extra effort to do it.
