Glock drought

TTex · 01-21-2013, 17:11

Wanted to buy a Gen 4 G21, but the cupboards are bare.

Anyone else run into a brick wall trying to get a new Glock?

shockglock · 01-21-2013, 17:20

Just left my LGS and they had a gen4 21, gen4 22, gen4 27, gen4 26 and a used gen 3 20c. Still waiting on my gen4 19 though.

Texas2Va2013 · 01-21-2013, 17:25

Very bare around Houston, esp for Gen 4. those that have them are getting top $

HauntedAlabama · 01-21-2013, 17:42

I went Saturday to 5 gun shops and called several more. No Gen 4 19's to be found anywhere around here. I did see atleast one or more 21,22,26,27,29sf,31, and 34 so there are a few out there, just not what I was wanting to pick up.

TTex · 01-21-2013, 17:51

I wouldn't think the 26,27,30, or 36 would be to much of a problem. I would imagine it's mostly the high cap pistols, but in this political climate I wouldn't doubt it either.

I was able to find some 45acp, but still not luck feeding my 17, 19, and 26.

Thank your fellow gun nuts for going ape **** and hoarding everything. 3 years people had to stuck up after the 2008 fiasco and I don't feel sorry one bit for anyone left out in the cold this time around.
How many of the millions of people out right now spending $100 for a AR15 mag voted for Obama? I bet you there are more than you think.

Production hasn't stopped on the contrary manufacturers are working non stop trying to fill orders. No, you can blame the idiots out snatching up everything they can find and throwing it in their closets for this mess. Many of which have no interest in anything but gouging and making a quick buck off the current situation.

You want to be mad? Be mad at all the nitwits that waited 4 years before giving a *****.

SeaWolf I understand your frustration, I really do. And to a point I share it. But the problem we have now is how to deal with this problem. I didn't vote for this president, but I still have to deal with the consequences of the choice others made. Next week I'll be down in your neck of the woods. My parents have a home in Bushnell. When I'm down in Bushnell I visit a few small gun shops around the area in hoping to find some stuff I can't find around here. This is bad times we are in now. Its time to think outside the box on what we are going to do about it. I'm going to remind people around election time the consequences of a choice. But now its what I can do about this.

Anyone know if Glock is manufacturing any guns here yet? or is it still all coming from Europe?

They've been manufacturing guns in the US for a few years. They used to be reserved for export, but not any longer.

I've been waiting since July 24th for mine.

RonS · 01-21-2013, 18:07

I wanted a G17L this year. Not going to happen. Maybe put that money toward spiffing up my Springfield Champion with some nice sights.

ESAFO · 01-21-2013, 18:17

gen 4 are next to impossible to find around here & most of the gen 3 i find are double the retail price from 3 months ago...
$849 for a gen 3 g19 & there selling used glocks for more than regular retail prices.

freezetime · 01-21-2013, 18:39

Theres a little place around here known for their antique firearms(they have a 1962 national match garand in BEAUTIFUL shape), that had a NIB gen 3 26 and NIB gen 4 19 today for $499 and $549.

However, the only place in my area to do the GSSF coupon only had a couple of beat up used glocks, including a 24. They did have a big stack of mags though.

4095fanatic · 01-21-2013, 19:12

Pistols, mags, all in short supply... I heard various reasons, between panic buying and GLOCK retooling a factory. Around here 17/19/21/22/23/26/27 are all hard to find.

jtrudel31 · 01-21-2013, 19:38

Found a g21 standard at bass pro 2 weeks ago for 650. Last one they had . Little more than I wanted to spend but I got what iwas after.

cpablum · 01-21-2013, 19:58

Just saw a barely used 21 at Lee's Pawn and Gun in Margate Florida. Reasonably priced.

G20 Gen4 selling for $655 in Jersey....but hey, it comes with 2 15 round mags. Nuts.

FnKev · 01-21-2013, 20:14

Some of the gun stores here have glocks, but are charging 649 for Gen 4s. I've been checking Academy multiple times a week for a Gen4 G19 or G23 and no one has anything. Hopefully I'll find one soon, got tons of giftcards from Christmas waiting to be spent. Haha

danysw · 01-21-2013, 20:15

Here in Miami ther is a shortgage of many pistols except Glock pistols. Yesterday at the Gun Show I saw dozens of G17, 19, 26, 27,22, 21 Gen 3 and 4 but no magazines at all and almost no ammo.

DannyB · 01-21-2013, 21:01

Must be a shortage. I could have bought a new Gen 3 19 at a shop a week ago for $549 and tax. I bet it is gone now.

chemboy · 01-21-2013, 21:08

A local shop(I'm in the Intermountain west) normally has between 100 and 120 Glocks in stock at any given time-they have had ZERO in stock for the past 3 weeks and no idea when they are going to see more of them.

OldSkhool · 01-21-2013, 21:18

They were all out of the Gen 4 26 in my area and one place had not received a shipment since October. Had to drive about 100 miles to find one now his big brother Gen 2 19 has company.
