I want an older Glock, but I don't want one that is wore out. What do I look for when looking at older Glocks?? What seems to wear out and I need to check?? As always, thanks for the Help, you all are great!!

MC,Glocks are pretty durable and take a beating.I'm a Glock armorer and normally when someone brings me an older gun I replace all the springs,recoil,trigger,mag release,slide stop assembly(has a spring on it),extractor,firing pin plunger,firing pin.

Also,Glock has continually modified parts like extractors,firing pins and their related safety parts(plunger) and these can be replaced.Many of these mods were due to the new types of Duty/self defense ammo that constantly evolves.

You may want to buy new magazines or at least change the springs in them and possibly the follower.

If the gun came equipped with the plastic sights,and still has them.I like to replace them with steel sights,either night type or plain black.The front sight has a habit of popping off.
