Glock market dead? (PPT)

I keep seeing Canik brought up. They are a turkish clone of a P99 and not a good one when you shoot them back to back against the p99.

Everyone fawning over the turkclone triggers need to shoot walthers and hk’s.
 
Have not actually shot the HK or the sig but did have a chance to dry fire the 365 several times and I do like the way it feels in my hand
I own a P365 (original size). It is a fantastic little pistol. For my average to slightly large size hands, I can get a full grip with the mag that has the little pinky adaptor on the mag. Recoil feels comparable to me to a G19 and I’ve fired them back to back. Sig knocked it out of the ballpark with this one. I think Glock knows that and is why they came out with the metal mags for the G43.
 
I kind of just have normal size hands and I still find that to be a bit small because of the blocky design of the glocks. I definitely like the way walthers, s&ws, and sigs feeling my hand far better than any Glock. And from what I've read the canik has wide support for being one of the absolute best striker fire triggers out there
I have a gen 3 g20 pretty much only used as my camp gun I have shot the 19 and it fit hand pretty good but the 20 and 21 the handle is like a cinder block.I still think about selling it though as i hate the grip size really like the sig 220 in 10mm though.The canik is an older tp9sf bought on a whim saw it in shop held it fit hand really good felt the trigger decided 375 bucks why not try it. first trip to range i was really impressed with it and its accuracy.

Unfortunately some newer canik models did have some issues but once going they are great.Few years ago though was hard to beat a glock for ca rosters and IMO with other guns being introduced today it gives the buyers more options.
 
I think there is stippling as well as an undercut trigger guard. Maybe slide serrations I haven't even bothered to look. Don't know if any of the angles of the actual grip itself or changed or identical to the three and four. If I lived out of state and I could buy one for $550 I would have absolutely no qualms about purchasing one and giving it a whirl. But people are sniffing glue if they think I'm going to pay California off roster prices. That's kind of like paying top dollar for a fat prostitute
BRO… some like em THICCC
 
What do you think about gen 5 g45 priced at 1k. Add posted

Fair price. If it was MOS it would sell quickly, but I expect you'll still get offers at this price. If it doesn't move after a while you can always lower the price. For now it gives interested buyers an opportunity to make an offer.
 
Funny you say that because before Walther ever found its way to the roster I used to tell people that if they were available to us like other guns my safe would be full of them. I I've always liked the brand and the firearms that they produce
I've been carrying it everyday now, it's just so cool
 
Have not actually shot the HK or the sig but did have a chance to dry fire the 365 several times and I do like the way it feels in my hand
I was turned off by sig going away from the 22* line and out of spite I stayed away from the p365 line. Kicking myself for not grabbing a bunch of them in different flavors before moving here. They really are amazing period. Add in the size to capacity and they just knock it out of the park. The 42/43/43x are absolute dog 💩 compared to the p365. Throw in all the grip sizes, slide lengths, proper (for me) triggers and they are no brainers.

HK, well until the p365 are the only striker guns I like and haven’t flipped. My VP9sk was my primary carry and my VP9 was a travel gun.
 
It’s not. I have my listing on here too and it’s not getting any buyers and my is lower than many on here.
You want double what it’s worth when it’s already been replaced by something actually different. you’re going to need to come way down, or let it sit in the back of the safe until you need the money and try again.

What I find interesting is how one can say "It’s worth whatever someone is willing to pay" then spend the next posts explaining why nobody should pay it.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If you don’t think a Gen 6 Glock is worth the premium, don’t buy one. If you think another brand offers better value anyone can buy those instead. Awesome. Free country. Free market.

But we have politicians who want to control this market.

Nobody is saying you have to like Glocks. Nobody is saying marked up off roster firearms are the best value on earth. But if your position is that value is determined by what buyers are willing to pay, then arguing with buyers because they don’t share your personal valuation seems a little strange.

I mean imagine if some of you ran for office. You’d be full-on woke Karen Bass types, convinced everyone needs to think exactly the way you do lol.

So understand why politicians do this. A desire to control how to think. Stop that 💩 haha.

Why are you so offended we don't think a used Glock is worth more than $500 lmaooooo

It's an internet forum, we can discuss amongst ourselves what we think a gun is worth. You aren't the hall monitor, don't get to control what we think or say and you're just arguing against yourself

Man you’re responding to an argument you invented.
e.g. shadowboxing

I never said you couldn’t discuss prices. I said it’s odd to claim value is determined by willing buyers and sellers, then turn around and insist those buyers are irrational because they don’t share your personal valuation.

Those are two different conversations and you keep answering the 2nd because it’s easier than addressing the 1st.

You keep replying to the argument you wish I made.

Your lack of comprehension doesn't make it odd. I can recognize market pricing is often irrational and not always based on fundamentals. It's odd that you actually believe markets are always rational - lol!

You're just seething that most moved onto superior handguns instead of paying over MSRP for a 25 year old FUDD gun haha. Has nothing to do with emotional pricing, you just don't like that most here don't agree with you.

I agree
 
I looked up your ad.

The Gen 5 G19 at $1300 is priced more in line with where a Gen 6 G19 would be. If yours was MOS/optics ready at least $150 more.

Realistically your G19 is probably worth around $900 - $1000 in the current market, which is likely why it has not been getting much interest. If you're looking for a trade, a 43X is in the appropriate value range w/ your G19.5.

Not a single Gen 3 model is selling close to $1000. It's fake news that keeps repeating here by Glock h4t0rs. If any did sell at those numbers it was likely during the strongest market conditions back in Jan/Feb 2026.
Your not factoring in mine comes with a brand new racism ramjet and after market sights. I will consider your suggestion. I’ll put it at $1000 stock and $1400 with radian ramjet
 
I see a lot of people asking 1k plus for glocks, don’t see them selling. But yeah, I’ll keep talking though it’s fun.
