Blue Label pricing

Are these prices not set by Glock? I was looking at a 43x and found them listed online for $358 ( standard sights ). I go to a local BL dealer and the same gun is $419...am I missing something? Maybe I'm misunderstanding how the BL pricing works. Anyone with any clarification ?

We had a local dealer that was selling BL Glock 19s for $468. He had pissed off someone, they called Glock, his BL approval by Glock was stripped from him. Greed, did him in. A Glock BL G19 Gen 5 for me is $398 from a Glock BL distributor, from a BL retail, $425. Any more, maybe call them into Glock. My understanding is Glock takes a VERY dim view of price gouging, very dim.

While I don't have a Blue Label dealer within 250 miles, I do run into similar pricing with local dealers. You need to check all the fees and sales taxes as well as the gun price to decide on where the best deal is. One of my local dealers always has the best prices, but charges $45 FFL transfer and $20 background, compared to another dealer with $30 higher gun price who charges $20 FFL and $10 background. Basically, its a wash ... I go with the dealer with the lesser FFL and Background fees.

Had a dealer near my house that picked up the Blue Label program a handful of years ago. I was talking to him about it and he said that he was going to charge $20 more than the Blue Label dealer on the other side of town. He said that people would pay the $20 to avoid driving to the other store.

I told him, "not me". I don't mind driving to gun stores - in fact it is one of the things that I enjoy doing - and since my wife likes to go too, its something we do on a regular basis.

FYI - that dealer is no longer in business.

I just bought my two Blue label glocks from GT and payed $348 before tax. 43x and 48. Also bought mags at the best price I have seen anywhere. Highly recommended if you qualify. Been using them for years.

I got my wife's G43 just after Glock put the improved connectors in them. My local dealer had them in stock for $509 + tax. The store is a BL dealer and I ordered one for $409 + tax, which I was happy to pay. I only had to make a $100 deposit. It arrived in less than 2 weeks, 9-10 days I believe, surprising me and the gun store personnel. I forget what the BL pricing was from Glock, but I would have to order it, pay upfront, and wait who knows how long, and then pay a dealer plus tax. The wait could have been months, from what I heard, which was a concern to me.

They are Blue Label stocking dealers,along with CZ,Walther,S&W and Sig.They have LE pricing in one case and regular pricing in another.I asked about the Glock Blue Label pricing and they said they had to buy from a distributor because they lost the direct from Glock. I was just trying to find out if the $426.00 for the G45 was too much.Thanks for the replies.

We don’t have a regular blue label dealer in the state. The one most local is a $440 on a $398 Glock blue label price gun.

The S&W blue label place charges BL price for Gen 1 M&Ps but more on every other S&W. Like $399 for a Gen 1 Shield when regular gun stores were charging that or less.

But some discount is better than nothing when we have to buy our own guns. Funniest was the Beretta LE dealer was $40 more than the sale at Gander outdoors for my 92A1. Lol
