Anyone mess with those? Assuming it's all the same since it's a Glock. But those Blue Label prices are nice.

When you pull the trigger on a Glock it goes bang.
That’s my take. My full time carry gun is a Glock19.

I have a 19x. It’s a great gun. Always goes bang (but so does my VP9 and p320).

ETA I also have a gen 3 19. I swapped the trigger in it. Much better now. I’ll swap the 19x trigger at some point

This. I'm a lefty but my gen 3 g19 has never failed to go bang. I "want" a gen 4 or 5 because I could change the mag release over but that damn gen 3 just works.

These are the used police guns right? Where do you buy these?

Got the MOS version that I carry most days. Solid and dependable. Not my favorite pistol that I own but still a great gun.

Blue Label is military and law enforcement. The shop I visit has some and their price is like $425, which is probably standard. And no, these aren't police trade-ins... these are NIB.

I think they perfected it with Gen4.

The Gen 5 jumps the shark into the obvious iPhone marketing strategy. Where there’s about one one thousandth of a millimeter legit room left for actual improvement but they know they can still get folks to fork over their money just to have the latest and supposed greatest

I think the unnecessary flared magwell took gen 5 backwards actually imo

Main thing I prefer about the gen 5 over the gen 4 is no finger grooves on the grip.

Bought two handguns recently. Glock 19x and a beretta apx. I like the apx much better. I shoot it much more accurately and the grip just fits my hand better.

Both eat steel case no problem. Only con I have for the apx is that the magazines are a little harder to load for whatever reason.

Tell me about it. Sometimes, you don’t even have to pull the trigger.

Glock is genius with their marketing. They sell Glocks to law enforcement officers for a big discount (I think it's $350). When first time gun buyers are thinking, they ask their police officer neighbor for advice. Police officer neighbor says "I carry a Glock every day at work." ...

It’s a great firearm. It’s very concealable and yes, you cannot beat that blue label pricing. Not sure what you’re looking for but I just picked up a 43x MOS, the single stack 9mm and love it. It’s even more concealable.

Check out GT Distributors online. They seem to constantly have weapons in stock and lots of blue label pricing.

Yeah, I'd wager this is bullshite. If not, you'd have heard of other cases of the gun "firing without ever touching the trigger"
