what's a good price on a new G20? local shop has one in stock at $599, i saw one at a gun show last weekend for $550, just want to see what a good price would be on one, i'll be looking to pick one up in the next couple weeks
thanks |

$525-$550 sounds about right to me. Bud's price is $537 + shipping.
Keep an eye out for used. Since it's more of a niche gun, as compared to, say, a G19, you see the occasional buyer's remorse used listing of a G20 with 50 rounds through it. I got mine used (6 mos. old, 250 rounds) with 7 mags, two holsters and an M5 streamlight for $650. With a little patience, you could grab a barely-used G20 for $425-$450. |

Echoing other posters, 525-550 is the going price for a really good deal.
$575-600 is typical for average gun shops. You also need to factor in how much your time and gas is to drive somewhere to save $25-50. Used ones were running $475-$525. I would not hesitate to buy a used one if I got a good price. If you are in public safety in any capacity (emt, firefighter, LE, etc) you qualify for Glock's Public Safety/Military discount and that will make a new G20 about $460 from a qualified Glock distributer (usually there is only one or two in a state that can give this discount). I waited about seven weeks for mine. I'd spent a month researching prices locally and having one shipped to a local FFL from out of state before I found out about the discount. I've had mine since beginning of September and I *love* it. I also have the G29, got it when they first came out and while I like it, the G20 handles better. |
