What is wrong with G-Locks ?

[SideShow Bob]

Is there something wrong withG-Locks ? Other than that I don't like how they feel in my hands ?
Is there a major factory recall ?

I just noticed that 6 out of the first ten ads in the T.P. Are G-Locks, why are so many owners dumping them ?

Quick to resale?

I think they just take getting used to and a lot of practice to figure out. Sometimes I shoot great with mine, other times I'm pulling to the left and I can't stop it no matter what I try. Ah, I found a link where some guy put a stock G17 in a ransom rest. 3.122" group at 25 yards (outdoors, but reportably negligible wind): http://www.montac.com/glock/bullet%2...lletjump_6.htm

I personally don't think that's bad for a mechanically awesome pistol for $500. I also think that's better than most handgun shooters are capable of by themselves, especially in a high-stress scenario. I think many Glock buyers are dismayed at their initial, or repeated (but still less than dedicated effort/time) performance, read about other users similar to them also not having godly accuracy, and then turn around and blame the tool. I know I'm tempted to do this with any gun when I'm having a bad day (that I had an awesome day with the month before).

They are made of plastic.

Are they dumping them or are they selling to trade up to the new fancy schmancy Gen 4 or single stack 42/43 or red dot ready models?

To answer your question, absolutely nothing wrong with them (IMO). I've tried out just about every major brand of pistol with the exception of HK, and I'm a Glock guy. Now I can't speak for anyone else, but i'll go ahead and "justify" my for sale ad. Up until recently, the only pistol calibers I had on hand were 9mm and 45acp (both arguably the hardest to find when the political SHTF), I've been meaning to have another "3 in 1" Glock, and figured I'd make that happen before we get too deep into election season. So I've picked up a G33 and will purchase a G27 barrel and a 40-9 barrel for it. Unfortunately I have neither the time or the room to reload, but my dad reloads 40 so I'm good there, and I never had a problem finding 357 sig, even in the worst ammo drought. So to actually answer the question, I'm selling my G26 because that was what I promised my wife I'd do if I bought the G33.

Is Glock coming out with a new model or something? Don't think I've seen so many Glocks for sale in the TP in a long time.

So solly, I try not to keep up on the PWT, it gives me a head ache............

I think that are just a bunch of them out there. Glocks are like 10-22's and SKS's, everyone has one or has had one. Or two, or three, or four ...

It's a buyer's market!
