1st gen G19

[Tim-g19]

Ive been wanting one for awhile, But havent seen any at the 1500 or any other show Ive been to, or shop Ive visited. and I saw this one on GunBroker.
It looks alittle rough to me, What are some other glockers opinions on the looks of it? anyone seen official #'s on how many where imported before 2nd gen came about?

It looks good for a Gen I, and if that is what your looking for, I would get it. The bid is up to $350, and quite frankly that is about what it is worth. YMMV

Why 1st gen? You don't care about the rail? It looks like it will run to me!

Only around 250 or so 1st generation G19s were ever imported into the US. They would command a HUGE price.

Luckily for you that link is for a 1st generation G17. A bit more of those were imported.

I personally like Gen 1 or 2 without the misplaced finger grooves of Gen 3, however I like to mount TLR-1 lights on teh Gen 3 rails.

This G17 (not G19 !) is currently at $350 plus $35 shipping plus FFL fees, and the reserve is still not met. More than I would pay...

Nice gun.

I have a 1st Gen. 17, I bought it just because I thought it was neat!

Mine's a police trade-in however, so it is far from pristine.

I would give a little more than $350 for this gun, if I were in the market. If it were a FTF in IN, I would be bidding.

There is starting to be some interest in the 1st. Generation GLOCKS as collectors pieces, so I have a feeling this gun will bring a bit more than the current bid. I don't really see a GLOCK becoming TOO valuable, as all the models seem to have been made in large quantities. Except the Ist Gen. 19's of course. Which, by my understanding, were basically a chopped 17 altered at the GLOCK factory.


Unless I'm wrong about everything!!
