Out of Glocks

[Yojoe1964]

I stopped at the local Rualking today. I asked why they had very few Glock models. I have not seen a 17 or 19 in quite sometime. The guy behind the counter said they could not get any in and they were still carring them. Is the Glock 17 and 19 demand out pacing the supply?

Rural King might be getting their stock from a small distributor. My LGS has both in stock everyday.

WE haven't had a 19 @ Parabellum in a couple of months. I'm also aware that some of the other larger dealers are running low on both.. NO one seems to know that is going on but I can tell you that 9MM Glocks are difficult to get your hands on from every distributor (about 8) that we get guns from..

I think PointBlank bought them all. I got a email from them saying they had 19 gen 4's in stock and they gave the stock on hand at all their stores and it was quite a lot of pistols. -Jason

I picked up a new gen 3 17 at the Martinsville rural king just a few months ago for $388 before taxes. They had that gun on sale for $439 for a long time and it kept making eye contact with me everytime i went in there. I went in one day and they had 12% off everything in the store and i couldnt help myself.

I've been around to a couple of different stores from central to NE, and most have sold out of the 19, 42, and 43. One lgs I dropped in at this weekend received their shipment around 8-9 saturday morning and by the time I got in at 3 they had all been sold. That same shop said Glock is something like 60,000 guns behind in production, although I'm not sure how much weight or truthful that is but would explain the low supply all over.

I haven't seen a Gen 3 in a while, Ft Liberty had a couple G19 Gen 4s on Saturday. Come to think of it I haven't seen a G17 in the case in a while.

Yojoe, no, it's a distribution (middleman) problem.

Sounds like it's time to list some NIB glock 19 and 17 in the classifieds well above retail price.

It will make some wonder why. Lol

Ruralkings usually only get one or two of each glock model at a time. It's not a shortage just a corporate buyer that doesn't understand supply and demand very well.

GlockMeister has 19s and 17s very reasonable plus you can ad any options you want night sites etc.

I was in my LGS on Thursday, which typically keeps a fair assortment of Glocks, were limited to a Gen4 23/27. Its also tax check time and the overall stock of many shops take a hit this time of year. I had been looking for a FDE Glock, either 23 or 19 locally for several weeks with no luck.

Haha. So meta

Bradis had some, not many, but some

Up here in NWI all of our region's LGS's appear to be fully stocked with Glocks. I've had absolutely zero problem finding anything new. There does on the other hand appear to be a shortage of used Glocks up here... just not seeing too many of those. I looked for awhile for a good deal on a USED Glock 19. Everyone one literally wanted almost full price... SO, I went ahead and bought new. To heck with all that!

There was a Lego scare. All the plastic was diverted.

Glock shortage?

 

[bocefus78]

Point blank in carmel had lots of glocks a week ago or so (last time there).

This is about the last thing I thought would become scarce which shows I know absolutely nothing.

For some reason I have an overwhelming urge to buy a G19 now....
