Good advice. I will do that as soon as I get home.

I am currently travelling in that nearby country called Kalifornia. Apparently Bernie is having a rally near my hotel tomorrow

I'm pretty flexible on price. I'd prefer new, but I'm not opposed to buying used if it is in good condition and has proven itself reliable. Just hypothetically speaking, of course, I'd probably pay up to 90% of the new price, depending on condition, with an adjustment (more money) for extra mags. So for your set-up, and assuming that the G17 mags came with the weapon, maybe $400 for the weapon / G17 mags and another $50-$60 for the two 33 round mags, or $450-$460 total, assuming good condition, less if it is beat up.

Now if it was a G19 model, I would probably pay more than new. I just prefer to use the same mags I have already. My mag drawer is confusing enough as-is.

I will say that if you were to decide to part with your set-up, you should have zero issues selling it quickly at a fair price.

Thanks. I will try that.

Of note, you can buy a G17 version and trim back the grip to fit the G19 magazines. While not for everyone, it is just polymer. Careful work with a dremel can knock it our in not much time. Just another option if you run across the G17 model.

Thanks. I will keep this in mind. Unfortunately, I can't find any G17 models either, so this is kind of a moot point at the moment.

Glock 19 version. I can't find one of these anywhere. Does anyone have suggestions?
