GLOCK 19 9MM 4TH GEN - $492.99

Considering SOCOM and the FBI just switched over to the Glock 19 I highly doubt they will be slowing down. There are a number of other military "departments" looking to switch over to the new generation as well. Considering gen 5 has not even been released yet and it's getting this type of hype Glock will only continue to gain following. Heck there are a number of the top military units in the world looking at the new gem 5 Glock 19 including the UK. I saw someone saying they will drop into a category similar to other imports like canik???? Hmm, I didn't know FMK or caniks were taking over the world. On a side note I don't think I would put CZ into those "import" categories either. Love them or hate them nothing is changing regarding their , popularity, price, or use. I'm not a fan either but the Glock 19 is one of the top selling guns of my generation. Heck I just paid $399 for a 42. Why? Because I trust my families life with it everyday that I don't carry my 229 CA SAS. So not even us bad mouthing them on this "comment"section of slick guns will slow them down;). Regarding their prices I don't think there is another mass produced handgun that holds its value better. I also like that they control prices. This means retailers have to be "fair" to be competitive. Which in turn Makes shopping for them much easier in my opinion. I know what the price is and the fluctuations are minimal so I don't have to worry about the bottom dropping out of them 6 months down the road. When I picked up my 42 it was $399 pretty much everywhere I looked. Local and online stores. Obviously that number will come down eventually. But if I wanted to sell it today I would get pretty much what I paid for almost 2 years ago. I will say $400 for a 380 is a bit ridiculous but that's what the market was set at and that's what people pay. Me included. Anyways these pricing items are based more around my observations than fact. So I might be crazy... Although $400 or $450 sure beats sigs options starting at $500 but no one ever calls them out:). Sigs seem overpriced to me more so than Glocks. This coming from someone that loves Sigs and has them in both short and long form... Any how enough of my rant...

I entirely agree, however I can understand it.
I think they should be priced at $399.99. But you can get them for $499 and in exchange for that extra $100 you get what equates to a lifetime no B.S. transferrable warranty and excellent customer service. Because of the reliability and warranty these hold their value very well.
This is what has me considering a Glock for my next purchase.

Don't buy now, price will drop lower in 6 months. Unless there is some stupid shooting again and the goberment decides to attack our 2nd amendment again. I bet in a year or two we will see these Glocks drop to CZ, FMK, CANIK, and other import pistol prices.

I have to admit, YouTube Glock hype did it's job... this gun or any other Glock for that matter, shouldn't be priced over $379.00. HK VP9 during black Friday was $469 and LE version $499. Not looking to start "glock vs ..." debate, just an opinion that there are tons of other brand names way better than Glock and priced for less. Heck, there are 1911s for $300... but like Apple, Glock should enjoy this hype and milk as much $$$ as possible til' people realize that they have been brain xxxx all these years ;)

Wow! That's a low price! It's a Buy
