I know that Glocks will last forever, but
should i buy a new Glock 22 or get a police trade-in. can anyone price me a new and used Glock 22. I seen used glock 22 for $460 New for $560 Am I getting screwed or not? |
|
I was gonna say that |
|
|
depends on the price. If dirt cheap get the turn in but some of them are only a little cheaper than new ones
|
|
+1 that include night sights or something? ETA: got a Gen2 G22 last year for my dad for christmas. Paid $430 if I am not mistaken. Had minor wear from holster and the bottom of the frame around the magwell was a little beat up, but runs like a champ. |

Go used. The right deals pop up all the time. Check the Equiptment Exchange here, I see them for sale for a good deal all the time.
Glocks are hard to wear out, and most of us can't afford to put enough ammo through them to wear them out. |
|
just get a brand new one off the internet for $449... or cdnn has some used 22's for real cheep
|
|
This guy seems to have pretty good prices on the Glock rebuilds. $365 for a re-furb G22.
|
|
I bought a police trade-in Glock 22 and I have been happy with it. The outside had some scuffs and holster wear, but the internals and barrel looked spotless.
|
|
Buy used but check it thuroughly first. If it is ok then save yourself some cash for practice ammo.
|
|
+1 That's where I got my G19 |
|
|
I personally won't buy anything that is used. Just a personal preference. Your choice.
BTW - $560 is asking too much. |
|
If you look around locally, you will find new glocks for $479.99-499.99. The extended slide versions are going to be more expensive.

You need a hobby. I just love it when people think they must announce the locking of a thread. Maybe the just do it to get attention? |

Go to Academy for New. CDNN used. $560 for standard models (17,22,21) other than G20 is too high.
|
|
ETA: This is a hobby unfortuantely. |

Hey what type of Ammo have you had Problems with.
I havnt set my heart on a 22 , that is the only .40 glock I have shot. I looked at the 23 online, but it smaller right? |

oh and i have seen new ones for much less than what you have found. |

It really doesnt matter i think. If youre going to buy a Glock Fowty, why not just spend the money on fried chicken and watermelon instead? Glocks suck for concealed carry anyway, and there are way better defense guns out there. If youre not going to carry it, get something more powerful, otherwise, go invest in chicken and watermelon.

CDNN investments has some G22(or 23) PD trade ins, 3rd gen for less than $400....

Do you want the light / accessory rail. If so then be sure the used ones you look at have them. If not you'll need to buy used.
Look at www.topglock.com and others for pricing. oh, and IBTL |

WTF are you talking about? Glocks are for Black folks? Let's just call your post, "morning time and you didn't know what the hell you were typing." Get yourself a new Glock 19. Don't get fooled into thinking the .40 S&W round is cool. Get the 9mm, shoot the shit out of it and stockpile ammo. For concealed carry, rest in the knowledge that your weapon goes bang every single time. The time you spend shooting it will give you tons of confidence. Glock bashers. HS1 got rid of his G23 and never looked back. |

I'm with you High strung.... |

If I were in the market for a Glock, which I am not, I would buy new. YMMV.
Oh, yeah,.....IBTL and IBTB. |
|
Worthless post. Prove it. |
|
|
Real classy. |
|
|
Hmmm... Be sure and tell that to the FBI who issues a Glock .40 to every agent in the agency. I think they know something about concealed carry and a little something about the ballistics of a .40. |
|
|
Bein as how my rule is ...never sell a gun ,unless it is junk ...........I don't buy used ..
|
|
My FFL ordered me a new G32 two years ago for $490 out the door, new. He passed on the low price of his first batch of Glocks to me.
IBTL Muthaf*cka!! |
|
That's not at all an assinine statement. I can see the humor and reference to the funny video but you don't need to be a douchebag and mention it over and over. |
|
|
Having owned a Glock 19, a 26 for a while I would have to say, buy an HK!
|
|
IBTL....
But...I don't think buying a used Glock poses any more risk than buying any other gun used. I had a G22 and I liked it. Wish I never got rid of it. Like another suggested, CDNN has good deals on them. If I were you, I'd get a 9mm, if your looking at something besides .45. You will get less recoil, good performance (if you use GOOD ammo), and more capacity. Plus it's cheaper to shoot. I'd also look around, and ask eklikwhoa where he found his prices, so you can take advantage of them, if you want a new one, that is. If you recognize it for what it is, a Glock is a good gun. There are better out there, and there are worse. I don't think that you are getting ripped if you buy one, not by a long shot (unless you pay more than $600 (without just cause...like a bunch of extras), then your an idiot. |
