You’d think you could find a buyer for a Glock anytime. That sure wasn’t my experience. My Gen3 19 sat on consignment with a load of magazines and holders, and a nice Blackhawk IWB/OWB holster for six months for what the LGS said was a fair price for 6 months, before I gave up and pulled it back. There’s a point where there are just too many on the market and all the difference generations with little to no change can make them tough to sell.
I eventually sold it and did the transfer and all legal mambo jumbo at another LGS. That same store gladly took my Mossberg 500 off my hands. Another great gun I didn’t shoot. It just mangled my bad shoulder with each trigger pull. I had asked them if they were interested in buying the Glock prior and they had said they had too many “non-movers” already. I guess it all depends on where you live and who has what. Glocks are not always easy to sell. Now if I had a 229, 226 or a CZ something, it would have been a different story.
Not saying Glocks are bad. Just that sometimes there are way too many “Camrys” being dumped for you to sell yours, even if mint!
