Glock 9mm

[SharpG]

Looking for a Glock 9mm in the bay area, 19 or 26. My local gun store has several 40 caliber Glocks in the $5XX range, but wondering when 9mm will be restocked or if anyone knows a store that might have them in stock. They said they had no idea.

This will be my 1st firearm, as a Californian, so doing a bunch of research to figure out the system here.

Looks like this isn't the best time to become a 9mm Glock owner, although this was the gun I owned in Texas (10+ years ago) so would like the same one.

just buy 40 caliber glock and buy 9mm conversion barrel

just buy 40 caliber glock and buy 9mm conversion barrel

This. Also keep in mind Magazines are Double the Price right now.


If your going for the G19, fantastic choice either way but I would skip the Gen 3. Now you do the Research/HW.

i would wait. if you don't shoot 40s&w, buying a conversion barrel is a waste of money.

[SharpG]

Agree. I'm not going to convert, just wait for Glock 19's to get restocked. Just wondering if anyone knows the timeframe. I've heard March, June???

I'm fine with the 3rd gen... if God forbid I had to use it, I'd hate to be in front of a bay area jury having some idiot lawyer making a big deal about using some loophole (modifying my gun) to have access to an "illegal" "scary" gun...

There out there I just got a like new g19 gen3 with nite sights, mags and all for $390 knowing I can sell if for 450+ or trade here on calguns. When the craze is over, glocks will be found. I want a gen4 real bad

[Rocksteady1]

I just bought a usa made g19. Good luck on waiting till the gen4 comes to CA. What I heard was that glock had some shipping issues and it might be a couple months.

Gen 4 Glocks wont make it to CA unless they include a Loaded Chamber Indicator, Magazine Disconnect, and something else im sure due to CA DOJ standards.
(others please chime in as I am not 100% postive)

I got my G19 Gen 4 via SSE. It added a little more cost to get it but it was worth it TO ME.

The Glock 19 is the most popular because it allows the perfect size for large, medium and small hands. GO for it!!!

That information doesn't negate a self defense claim in court. I'm not saying I've researched it extensively but I have yet to hear modifications of a gun be brought up as evidence. Besides, the SSE is not a loophole. It's a clearly written exemption in the law.

Besides, good arguments could be made for not allowing that evidence in but I won't bore you with the details. I'm not your lawyer, I've just been studying for the Bar too much.

My non legal advise is to get what you want.

[Sam]

sorry.

Glock is backordered 600,000+ pistols. If you want a 19, place a backorder or else you will be waiting a really long time.

not sure where you got those numbers but if that's true we will being seeing alot of cheap glocks on the private sale ads later down the line.

Get a 26 if you can find one. I had a 19 for several years, and still love it, but I recently got a 26, and I'm starting to like it a little better. I have big hands, but even so, the 26 is a nice little gun.

I wouldn't skip the gen 3.
