If its brand new I'd just pick it up just to have.

Sweet price for a new 1st gen. Lots of dealers rape you with the price of a 1st gen and make you like it!

thanks for the replies,, but after searching this sight i found the born on date list and with the sn of the new glock my dealer has it seems it is not a 1st gen but a 2nd gen, the first 3 letters are AUA and that is like a feb 94 date code. i will have to talk to him about this,, thanks guys,, Dave

Nothing wrong with a NIB 2nd gen. G17. I like the 2nd gen. frame on the G17. The half-moon cut-out on the gen 2 compacts bugs me, but the standard frames feel just right. :wavey:

AUA is not a collector's item, even if new. But it's a really good gun. The second generation doesn't have those pesky finger grooves or the unnecessary locking block pin. Unless you need the frame rail, the second generation is the best of the G17s. If it's new, $500 would be top dollar.

If I saw a brand new Gen.1 anything, I would be on it like white on rice....:wavey:

Me too...I'd give anything to have my 1986 G17 back..

I'm sure a honest hardworking gun shop dealer would never mislead you about this being a first gen gun. Good work on doing your homework.

actually this dealer is pretty good, I am sure he just saw the no finger grooves and just assumed it was a gen 1. I emailed him tonight with the date code and the fact is it a gen 2 and I would be willing to make him an offer on it. I have delt with him for about 2 years and the deals he gives me makesme want to drive 45 miles to get it from here than to go to my local dealer. Thanks for the support my friends,,, dave
