    Thanks!
    Absolutely! I replaced / upgraded all my blocks to gen4's via sse.
    I (and my wife) prefer the gen4 grip size and texture. If you can,
    Compare gen3 & gen4 models side-by-side, then decide.

      Red Skull in Milpitas had a couple Gen 4's on consignment not too long ago

      I believe they had RTF and some in FDE as well.

            Gen 3 is the way to go. Don't overpay for something that has very little improvement over the flawless Gen 3.

                Hahahah. Correct.

                I must admit I do like my gen 3 and gen 4s. Gen 3 for 10MM with the wide variety of recoil springs is very good. Heck, I even love my 1992 Gen 2 Glock 17. Really a smooth shooter with a smooth grip.

                Fewer people are killed with all rifles each year (323 in 2011) than with shotguns (356), hammers and clubs (496), and hands and feet (728).

                  I also think Gen 4 feels better, although if there is a cheap gen3, I'll take that too : )

                    I favor the gen3 (only because I have 10 of them) but the gen4 ergos are much better

                            I'd rather they come with cheap placeholder sights than be 50-100 more and come with sights I don't want. Like big 3-dot or something. Ugh

                              Are all these Gen4's for sale from out of state? That's the only explanation I can think of...I'm looking at the purchase of a G19 and want to know whether to consider a Gen4 in the mix...

                              Thanks!
                              Pay to play or go gen 3. Missed the boat by almost a year on sse. I wouldn't sell any of my gen 4 for double or triple retail.

                                You get to put the sights you actually want... Everyone's tastes vary as do application.
