    Olive drab Glocks worth more?

    I've tried the search function, didn't find what I was looking for. Are Olive drab Glocks worth more than the standard black ones? I understand that Glock no longer makes them

    To sellers yes, buyers not so much. Saw one in our market place for $900 yesterday.....I wasn't interested.

      They're discontinued so sellers have considered these to be a premium firearm. If a buyer wants one and has the cash, power to them.

        Yeah, its the same gun still, just more rare than a black one. Sellers are asking crazy prices for them these days, and it seems like they are getting sold.

          Thanks for the info

          Yeah, I have an olive drab Glock 23, I didn't want to use it too much if it was considered more valuable. Any suggestions on the best way to find what it's worth?

            The tan ones are only as valuable as what a buyer is willing to pay. Personally I prefer the black ones so the tan ones, while more rare, I would pay less for.

              If you go to the prices books the value is the same but the real value is what the market dictates. Personally, I would not pay more for OD

                Might want to look at Gunbroker to see generally what sellers are looking to get for them.

                You can also see if they have an option to see what latest ones might have sold for also.

                  They can be had easily enough that I wouldn’t cal them rare. I have never seen official numbers on the amount of OD glocks that were produced but I wouldn’t be surprised if they were in the hundreds of thousands.

                  The market on them went through the roof because the demand was high.

                  If you’re searching hard for one I would look out of state, although the BOE tax and out of state transfer fees might make the purchase price come out to be the same.

                  I have a few - be patient and they will pop up for decent prices.

                        I own a few OD Glocks (11) and love how they look. I think they are worth $100 more than a standard black glock. Time will tell.

                        Here are three Glock 26 ODs..sold two, keeping one for now.

                        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).

                          If you look in the Marketplace you see them for insane prices. I personally don't get it. My Glocks are black. I use them to shoot. When I shoot, my right hand covers the grip and my left hand covers most of one side of the frame. I could care less what color is underneath my hands. That's just me. I like OD generally speaking, but I'm not paying $750+ for a Glock. Not in this lifetime

                            Not that there is anything wrong with that.

                              I think the OD guns are ugly, hate the color. I would like to get an FDE 17 when they run the next batch though. (If that happens)

                              IMO people are crazy for buying and selling a Glock for ridiculous markup, none of them are rare or special, except the 18.
