If Glocks are so good...

[apovinelli]

Okay, so as I read on this forum, everyday there is a thread about how great glocks are blah blah blah...

I have never owned a Glock so I have no attachment to them. At them same time, I have never owned a Glock so I have nothing negative about them either. On here, I have only seen good things, never bad about them...If that is the case...then why is it that when I go to the classified section there is always at least 5 Glocks on the front page. So they are best best guns but everyone wants to get rid of them? Is this because they are reliable but boring?

They are not for everyone.

Some people cant get over the fact that there is no external saftey.

Some people cant ever lean how to shoot them.

Some people hate black guns.

Apparently they have a tendency to explode.

A lot of people have at least one Glock (or more than one), but they are inexpensive. Therefore, if someone is wanting to fund a new purchase, or if they just need the money, they'll tend to sell their Glock, 'cause they can always get another. Plus, if they have more than one Glock, it makes it that much easier to sell one. More Glocks for sale just means more people own Glocks, and people tend to view their Glocks more as tools, so it's just easier to let one go if need be.

That's racist hahaha, just kidding.

I don't hate Glock's..... just don't like how the .40's and .45's feel in my hand..... the grip's feel to wide for comfort... compared to say an XD.

Nice, they are all the same. Plenty of them out there. Heck I sold one last night and wasnt even trying and might have another one sold.

If you do not want yours, I will gladly take it off your hands. Of course, you would not sell a fellow member a piece of dangerous junk; so I will just accept your donation of a faulty, dangerous pistol.

Let me know and I will send you my address. I will even pay the shipping to take it off your hands.

ever notice how when you look for cars on craigslist, you always see F150, Honda Civics etc?

It's because there are SO DAMN MANY OF THEM in the population.

This has been explained many, many times.

Can't wait for my new G35 to get here!!

yeah, funny how fast they sell too, huh?

 

[Sureshot129]

There are MILLIONS of glocks in circulation police departments all over the country use them.

 

[WestSider]

In all seriousness Glocks are simply great guns. I would rate them right up there for durability and reliability.

I wish I still had your G34. Still kicking myself for selling that one!

that is, honestly, probably the greatest description I've heard of a Glock.

yeah... you and ME both!

Glocks are a dime a dozen, thats why you see so many of them for sale.

 

[releo 37]

Glocks are simple and if you own a 17 and a 26 as a backup there's no difference than the size all the controls are the same. Some people buy them because they see/hear about them all the time and then decide they don't like them due to the safety/grip/sights etc. Some people want to try something else and know they can replace the Glock pretty easy. They are a working gun and most people will use/abuse a Glock before they will a higher priced gun

 

[johnb62]

The good thing is they are just like Dorito's. They will make more.

 

[E5RANGER375]

i like black guns but to make them truely reliable and accurate you need to do some work to them out of the box, and nothing for a glock seems cheap to me. im even a dealer for lone wolf, and even dealer cost is outragious for parts.
