Glock Gen 4

[nikki#2]

So I got a Glock 19 Gen 3 and I am a Distinguished Master so will a Gen 4 make me a Grander Master? I Doubt it ..

Well... I don't know if it's indeed a fact... but I would venture to say that Nationwide, more Grand Masters shoot Gen4's than Gen3's.

So maybe that Gen 3 is holding you back.

I owned both gen 3 and 4 G19's at the same time and they shot the same at the range but I like the grip texture of the gen 4 more.

I bet if you tested both in a variety of conditions such as shooting with wet sweaty hands that the gen 4 would provide a more secure shooting grip therefore have better control.

But, for shooting in an air conditioned range under ideal conditions then sure, both shoot about the same!

Get a gen 3 and have it stippling

If you're going to pay a whole bunch of money for a Glock, pass on the generation 4. Get yourself an rtf2 preferably one with all accessories. You can probably get it for less than a Gen4. With so little difference between the Gen 3 and Gen 4, the extra cost does not make any sense

They are readily available to buy on this site thru PPT...expect to pay 140-175% over retail.

FIFY

Quiet has answered.

I will only add that there are several ways to receive off roster guns (like Gen4 glocks) other than a PPT from a LEO. For example:

-Intrafamilial transfer
-Consignment
-PPT from non-LEO
-gift from direct lineage parent/child from out of state

Anyone wanna get adopted? My fee is almost reasonable.

There is also a lawsuit in progress to get rid of the microstamping requirement.

So in terms of legal findings this is the last case from 2015 where a deputy was found guilty and the ffl he was using.

I've used that FFL. He was the coolest and I'm certain he had no idea the deputies were flipping guns.

If that's the truth then that sux he was punished at the hands of dirty cops. As much as I want to believe you, they did manage to convince a jury of it. But I wasn't there and it sounds like you know him better than I certainly do. It makes me wonder how they argued his involvement. Just to be clear, I'm not disagreeing with you or start anything. I honestly feel for the guy/business if he had nothing to do with the wrong doing.

"Dirty" cops? What was so dirty about them?

What a joke "dangerous guns". All my off roster guns behave themselves.
