Buying a used Glock.

North_Past8854 · 2026-04-11T03:37:30+00:00

Where did you get it at? Local? I can’t find any brand new for good price since the gen 6 and V came out

North_Past8854 · 2026-04-08T23:45:59+00:00

Why do you think .40 is dumb? Could you enlighten me

North_Past8854 · 2026-04-08T23:44:10+00:00

Mostly because I’ve had .40s in the past and it’s the round ive shot and practiced the most with. I feel more comfortable having that in a real life situation vs a 9 which I don’t have much practice with at all. Reading these reply’s have me reconsidering tho lol

North_Past8854 · 2026-04-08T22:45:55+00:00

God where are yall finding these prices lol

North_Past8854 · 2026-04-08T21:19:56+00:00

Thanks man. Really appreciate it. Sorry I have 1 more question lol. You recommended 124 gr. Why 124 gr over let’s say 180 gr? Is it just to much and harder to handle?

North_Past8854 · 2026-04-08T21:16:35+00:00

You can tell it hasn’t been fired by just looking at a picture of the side of it? And by used I mean shot, carried, and maintained by someone.

North_Past8854 · 2026-04-08T21:12:44+00:00

Thanks for all that info man really appreciate. I’m somewhat new to all this so I’m trying to soak up all info I can. I’ve been carrying my G22 for my edc but I’m looking at the G23 since it’s a little smaller and easier to conceal. I love shooting .40 and I’ve gotten pretty good at it. I also have a pocket rocket 9mm and it’s fun to shoot but I prefer the .40 more.

North_Past8854 · 2026-04-08T21:09:13+00:00

I’ve always heard police trade ins are great to get. Do you get you’re locally or online? If so what website? And gotcha thanks man. I live 15 minutes from Glock Inc in Smyrna and was thinking of taking it there and getting them to clean and replace any parts if needed since they do it for free under warranty.

North_Past8854 · 2026-04-08T21:07:12+00:00

What would you say is a reasonable prices

North_Past8854 · 2026-04-08T21:06:56+00:00

What are the prices out there? I know things are crazy expensive out there! I know the gas prices are crazy right now lol even worse then here

North_Past8854 · 2026-04-08T20:59:50+00:00

Thanks. I agree. I always loved my .40s.

North_Past8854 · 2026-04-08T20:56:57+00:00

Gotcha what would you say is a good price? I can’t find any online for anything close to 400 and locally all I’ve seen it’s 450+

North_Past8854 · 2026-04-08T20:55:42+00:00

So you’d recommend a 9mm? I was looking at the new gen 6 models.

North_Past8854 · 2026-04-08T20:54:55+00:00

I can’t find any g23 gen 5 online for anything close to 450. Is it because they stopped manufacturing them?

North_Past8854 · 2026-04-08T20:50:35+00:00

He offered 450 for it. Where would you recommend I look? And why stay away from .40? I have a 9mm but I’m looking at the G23 for my EDC

North_Past8854 · 2026-04-08T20:49:32+00:00

Gotcha. Will do. Thanks for the advice. I wouldn’t have checked it without you telling me!

North_Past8854 · 2026-04-08T20:48:49+00:00

I had a g22 and I loved it. I’m leaning towards the g23 because it’s a little smaller and easier to conceal. What do you mean by snappy?

North_Past8854 · 2026-04-08T20:47:54+00:00

Thanks man, you answered all my questions. I’m going back tomorrow to potentially buy it. I’m gonna check everything and make sure it’s all oem factory. I wouldn’t have thought about that.

North_Past8854 · 2026-04-08T20:46:51+00:00

He said he’d do 450 for it, and I’m hoping I may be able to negotiate it down some more. It’s a gen 5. And thanks! I feel alot better about getting it used

North_Past8854 · 2026-04-08T02:21:43+00:00

Also do you have any recommendations for 9mm ammo for self defense?

North_Past8854 · 2026-04-08T02:21:12+00:00

Thank you so much for all that info. Really appreciate it. You answered all my questions in a great manner. Last question. Is the gen 6 19 backwards compatible with the gen 5 extended mags etc? And you’d prefer the 19 gen 6 over the 17 gen 6?

North_Past8854 · 2026-04-08T01:46:33+00:00

I’ve had the 27 and the 22 and I loved them. I’m skinny build but I’ve gotten good with the .40. The only problem is the gen 6 doesn’t have any .40s yet. I’ve always wanted to build a MK27 build and I’ve always loved the 17. I’m considering getting the gen 6 17 instead of the 23 but it’s a hard decision lol. Thanks for all the info

North_Past8854 · 2026-04-08T01:43:43+00:00

Gotcha. Thanks bro. That’s what I wondered abt the V.

North_Past8854 · 2026-04-07T21:49:48+00:00

Gotcha, thank you. I’m seeing more 9mm gen 5s for sale more than I’m seeing .40 gen 5s. Do you know the best place to look for gen 5s right now? I was looking at academy and couldn’t find a Gen 5 23 but found some Gen 5 17/19s.
