HELP NEEDED!!!

[Sac-AR15]

So I have a 25th Anniversay Glock 17 Gen4 on hold right now. But the last couple of days I've been debating on cancelling it to get a SA Trophy Match 1911. G17 25th Anniversary is $749 and the SA Trophy Match is about $1250. The difference is not an issue. My thing is do I keep the G17 cuz it's limited to 2500 made or get the Trophy Match?? What do you guys think? Thanks in advance for your feedbacks.

No Glocks in my collection.

But, I do have a few 1911's.

Depends what you are using it for. If for a collectors piece, maybe the Glock due to its rarity. But at the the end of the day, its still a glock. I vote 1911. Good collector's piece and good shooter!

The only commemoratives worth buying are colts.
Get the Trophy Match.

If price isn't an issue get both.

I usually can't choose or control my gun purchases I may not be the best one for advice.

I would not spend $750 on a glock with a dog tag embedded in the grip.

The only reason why I even considered the G17 25th is because of the rarity of it. Other than that, I'd much rather get the 1911. Although the TRP Operator is my 1st 1911 but I definitely love shooting it. Maybe I'll just go with my gut feeling and stick with the Trophy Match. F the rarity and get something I'll enjoy shooting.

Sir I didn't say price was an issue. The difference was not an issue. LOL.. Unless you want to donate. Looks like I might have to call my LGS and tell them to switch to the Trophy Match.

Once you shoot that Glock it becomes another Glock.
I can't imagine the Glock going up in value in the next 10 years.

As much as I like glocks I think the 1911 is a better purchase. It will hold its value better than the glock and hoowee is that glock ugly which is why I think it will be just another glock in a few years.
Sorry no donations. I have a nice Remington rand 1911 I have my eye on.
Thanks

TM will hold it's value better (on a resale), unless you can get the Glock 25th much cheaper.
Or unless the Glock's factory color is anything but black

Glock 20th anniversary, don't think the prices are going up, so I think the same will be for the 25th, price will not rocket up.
Willing to bet, they will make a 30th anniversary.

Sell me the Glock for $500 and you can use my donation to the SA Trophy Match.

Ha!

But seriously, it all depends on what type of "gun" guy you are. I'm a Glock guy and I'd totally jump on the Commemorative Glock. I would care less for 1911, but I do have a Rock Island in mind. Oh, congrats on the Glock!

[Sac-AR15]

Well after all of the feedbacks, looks like I'll be switching to the Trophy, Match. Damn, now I have to buy my wife the $200 pair of boots to get the TM. Seems like a fair trade to me.

Thanks to you guys I ended up cancelling the Glock purchase and used the deposit for the Springfield Trophy Match. Now I have to wait till the end of December to dros it.

[Fishslayer]

Hard to say. What color is the frame?
