Slightly used gun (Glock 19 gen 3)

joker5656

what would you give for the gun, 500rds of WPA 9MM, and about 5 - 15rd mags? My grandmothers husband died and I plan to buy this from her. Gun doesn't look used honestly from looking at the slide and mag followers, I'm not sure he even ran more than a mag or two through it. I can't really get a good feel on price on the gun since new and used seem to be about 400-600. I was thinking 600-650.

Normal price on a gen 3 is $500 brand new, 500rds of 9mm is around $100 bulk priced and 3 extra mags are $90.  Thats all new retail prices when times are normal, which are skewed high right now though.  Glocks are selling for around $200-300 more than normal on the auction side because of the mass panic buying going on right now.

600-650 I think is solid. Things, some, are high now but artificially inflated.

$400 for the Glock, $100 for the ammo& 50 for the mags. They normally come with 3 mags.

Thanks for the help y'all.

All great comments. I would also consider: 1) Do I want this gun or am I doing this as a favor?, 2) Is there sentimental value to me/others?, and 3) Are there strings (i.e., if I buy it, am I expected to keep it because of the lineage)?

Gen 4 and 5 come with 3 mags. Gen 3 and prior only 2.

This is a reasonable offer...I wouldn't pay anymore then this.

nope, not a favor. Actually have been wanting a new pistol for awhile since the one I carry developed a weird magazine issue. All she wants is them out of the house since she's not a gun person in anyway. I just want to make sure she gets a fair deal on them. Since pricing seems scattered, why I'm here.

Reasonable offer in normal times / among friends and family.

Looking at sales history on the Auction side G19's are selling in the $600 to $900 range as result of the run on guns:

For me, as the buyer, On a deal like this, Im not going to factor in short term panic buying.

But wow!

Its a used Gen3 and there are literally millions out there.

If you are a veteran and have a GT distributor nearby......wait until they open the blue label program to vets. They do it once a year. In the past years I have purchased 3 G19s (1 gen 4 and 2 gen 5's) for under $500 each.

I agree in a friends / family deal - I'm not going to pay panic prices. If joker was going to flip it fast for additional cash, I'd toss granny a few more bucks after the sale.

@drobs You might remember I have a Gen5 19 MOS showing up that I won from Glock. @these prices I might have to sell it, instead of adding a 6th Glock 9mm to the safe. I guess we will see when it finally arrives at my FFL what prices are doing in the next few weeks.

Sharing this for others who stumble on this thread.

You can also join GSSF for 2 years ($60) and get 2 vouchers for the GSSF pricing which is the same as Blue Label. But yes, last year I bought a Blue label priced gun via my DD214.

Glock wants to make shooters!

I'd be tempted to do the same.

Hindsight being 2020 - should've grabbed a few extra back when they were cheap and readily available.

Passed on some $200 - $300 LE trade in G22s, G23s, and G27s.

I keep an eye on that A-List site, Glocks are going for big $$$ on there as well.

Seem to be in high demand.
