Went to a local gun show and was a bit surprised at how prices for new Glock's have fallen. A couple of the big dealers were offering Gen 4 19's for under $525. I was wondering if this had something to do with the falling value of the Euro.
I'm better when I move.

Glocks have always been in this price range

That's about what I've seen them at for about a decade. Maybe it's just your area.

Must be. Couldn't get a Gen 4 19 for under $600 around here until recently.

The problem is that so many people think that you can only get a "deal" at a gunshow. Around here, many prices are cheaper at gunshops.

I just sold a 2 year old G20, with 6" Glock barrel, stainless recoil spring and guide rod, Burris red dot, dies, and some ammo for pretty much what I had in it.

When truth is ignored, it does not change an untruth from remaining a lie.

I didn't get a chance to kill anything with it, but I set it up for hogs. It was accurate, and with the 220gr Buffalo Bore cast load, I am pretty sure it would have done the job. My wife shot it with the Burris sight and was convinced she could kill a hog with it!
I am not a Glock kind of guy. Sold it and my .460 Rowland 1911, bought a .480 Ruger Super Redhawk and a Stainless .44mag Bisley Super Blackhawk Hunter.

Gen 3's have been hovering in the 499 - 509 range for around 7 years. Gen 4's 535 - 550 since their release.
I won't even consider purchasing a Glock (or any other firearm) from Gander Mtn or Bass Pro. Their prices are not even on the radar screen.
