Gen 1's in that condition are hard to find. When you do find them they carry a nice price tag. 550 is not unreasonable cost for a gen 1 it will not sit long. This is what I was thinking, but like I said, I don;t know much about early Glock's. Is there a way to check the serial number to see when it was produced? |

If you have cash offer $500 see if the seller bites and if not see where he will meet you on price.
Like said before these usually do not last long for people that know what it is. I found a G17.2 over the holidays for 399 and went back to the GS and bought it because I knew it was too good of a deal to pass up. $550 if you pay that you will not walk away ripped off. |

The pins look tight which is a good sign. Have you racked the slide, how does that feel? Will they let you remove the slide to inspect?
I do not collect guns, that is why I do not value it that highly, and IMHO the GEN 3s and 4s are much better guns as TargetBlaster has already said.... |

So, from my little bit of research, it's a pretty early one. Any idea on value? Quoted:

Just google search Glock serial number and tons of sites have approximate born dates. DK - G-17 - October 1988 - 1st Gen. So, from my little bit of research, it's a pretty early one. Any idea on value? For a gen 1 it's actually kind of a late one. It wasn't too long before they started making the gen 2 guns. I'll have to look for sure but I think that's the same prefix mine has. |

If you collect Glocks and have several others and want a Gen 1, get it. If you are looking for something to shoot....get a Gen 3 or 4. This would be my opinion. It would be nice to collect them and have that, but I don't. I bet some tool buys it and doesn't even realize what is special about it. |
