| so i stopped in my local gun shop looking for a Gen 2 Glock 19. they want 399 for it. it is a used trade in, and they both look like they are in good shape. is that a good price? |
|
I would say that is a little high. A used, current generation, G19 should be about $400 out the door, or maybe plus tax. I paid $350 out the door for my like new 2nd generation G19, with the original box, papers, mags(pre-ban), loader, and the cleaning rod and brush. But then again, it may depend on your local market. |
| mabye thats what it is, the guy told me some where in the neighborhood of 515 for a new gen 3. he asked me if i was a LEO or Civ, and im a Civ, but why would he ask that? im going to school in long island, mabye it was stupid of me to look down here cause im from upstate NY. i thought it was a shade on the high side, but who knows, mabye they will negotiate, it seemed like a small enough place to do that. |
Glock offers a discount to military, LEO, Firefighters, Doctors, EMTs, and certain veterans. That is probably why he asked. $515 isn't too bad for a G19, they go for $490 around here, but that is at the best priced shop. There are others that will normally ask close to $600 also. |
