Would you pay $1800 for a Glock 17 Gen 1 ?

Why is someone bidding $666 (so far) for this?

Is this a collector's item?

Folks are frantic to get their hands on a semi before a possible ban?

Aren't there tons of Glocks floating around from LE trade-ins?

Looks real ugly...

$666.66 hail satan

 

 

On a serious note, these are crazy times. People will sell for what people will pay. If he doesn't get $1800 next week it will be $1500, until someone is scared enough to buy just in case something crazy does happen.

First gen Glock. Collectible maybe?

For a Glock??? No way personally. The Gen 1 G17 is sought after by those who savor the Block, but they were selling all summer long at $500 like new in box.

[9X19 125]

Collectible yes. $1800.00 no.

[Socom 19]

Gen 1 g19 yes!, no gen 17's are dime a dozen

[Blacksmythe 71]

Nope.

You could get 3-4 Glocks for that price. In my estimation a Glock is not a collectible. It's the finest combat handgun ever made. Except for 1911s, CZs, XDs S&W M&Ps, SIGs, Walthers, Berettas, but its just a lump of steel and plastic. Better to have two or three used in good shape in different calibers and/or a backup gun than a collectible. With careful shopping maybe even four could be had. And, the 17 really has limitations in this Garden State paradise. I think the Lone Wolf version is about $1500, and that isn't a thought either. Now, to have a Glock off papers.... well, that might be worth $1500. But, then only bad guys would do that, not law-abiding Constitutional Conservatives and libertarian-minded citizens and firearm aficionados. But in some other free states that paperless Glock might be a possibility, or maybe a nice .357.

 

If I could sell one at that price, I would certainly be picking up two or three new ones.

Hrm... probably not...

Early single pin frame is collectible. $1800 collectible I'm not sure about.

$775 now, damn... It might have been Chuck Norris's first glock? Maybe? Because I would pay $1800 if it was

Personally I wouldn't pay $18.00 for one. I don't like the feel of them. I would rather the feel of my 1911 tauras

I would pay $1,800 for an unfired early serial number Model 17 Gen1. I would also pay $1,800 for a Model 18, model 25, model 28, or a model 40.
