$51,000 glock?

[BushyGuy]

damn i could buy 25 - AR15's and 50 High quality AK47's for the price of one ****ty Glock...

if i was a millionaire, no way on gods green earth would i throw in 50 K for a Glock, i dont care if its 14K solid gold!

The only problem is that 9x21 ammo isn't too common and a bit pricey.

 

[wideym]

I wonder if that includes shipping?

 

[Impureclient]

Looking up.....Please allow the buyer of this to go bankrupt soon after to balance the transaction out.

 

[K-Rod]

I wonder if this guy meant $510.00 & missed the (.) button??....If not, do you have aspare Glock laying around & want to go on a nice vacation that you've been saving for years for? SELL SELL SELL!!!

 

[Sig88]

Maybe the $51000.00 price tag is to recoup some of the $52000.00 he spent on it. There's a sucker born everyday

I have an extremely rare HiPoint...

 

[CajunBass]

I think I saw that one at a gun show recently. Fellow told me it was the Glock Hitler used to kill himself.

 

[JoeMal]

BTW why $51,000 as opposed to say $50,000 flat? Odd price point.

$50,000 for the gun, the other $1,000 is for 'priority shipping' w/ a tracking number

9x21 G19
Perhaps the rarest of all Glocks is the 9X21 G19. Partick Sweeney mentions these in his Gun Digest Book Of The Glock. There are indeed only 3 ever made, for U.S. Navy investigators stationed in Italy(where they don't allow 9 x 19). The pistols are marked with the new caliber on the frame and barrel and have serial numbers EN260US, EN261US and EN262US.

We only bought three pistols for all of our naval investigators in Italy? And in a totally different platform than all of our service pistols? And in that one and only place we only buy locally available ammunition instead of just bringing it with us?

I mean come on, that sounds ridiculous. When has the US government or any agency or department in it ever bought only three pistols, let alone of a totally different type and chambering just because a country doesn't allow its private citizens to own our regular service caliber?

I mean Japan has very tight gun laws and we don't issue Marlin 336s and Springfield XDs in .40 over it.

wouldn't you think an "Special Agent" US Naval Investigators would be military, and not civilian??

and why specifically Glock??

Overpriced gun in an impractical caliber. Good luck selling that one. I could see maybe $5000 because it's so rare but $51,000, that is simply absurd. I wouldn't even buy it if I were rich, just too silly.

CajunBrass gets my vote for best response so far!

 

[Owen]

and on top of that, since when does the Navy sell guns onto the commercial market. If its an NCIS pistol, its stolen.

 

[Dunedain]

I can see a super serious Glock collector wanting it. But $51,000 is crazy, I mean it's a Glock... At least if it were the first SIG P210 ever made, you could understand a little better.

5k to maybe even 10k I could see, but no more. I guess if a serious collector has money to burn, he might do it. But I doubt it will go for that much.

"9x21 G19
Perhaps the rarest of all Glocks is the 9X21 G19. Three special agents of the US Naval Investigative Service were being stationed in Italy with some work being done incognito. Since it is illegal for civilians to carry standard 9mm (9X19) weapons, Glock produced 3 model 19s chambered for the 9X21 cartridge. The pistols are marked with the new caliber on the frame and barrel and have serial numbers EN260US, EN261US and EN262US."

NCIS agents are indeed civilians, though something does seem a little fishy about the whole thing.

 

[Texshooter]

With all the $ I have spent on pistols since 1975 I could.....

oh, never mind.

 

[blackspyder]

Undercover NCIS agents needed localized weapons for an operation, I'll bite.

$51k for a Glock, no thanks though. I'd rather have a 1909/1910 from the US Military trials.

 

[dajowi]

It's obvious that this person suffers from mental illness and shouldn't be in possession of a firearm.

 

[TG13]

i didn't know NCIS was a civilian naval job.. ok..

but who put the order in to glock for three 9x21 19s?? did the Navy?? did the individual agents?? and it's amazing that glock filled those orders, especially for only 3 pistols..

 

[NMGonzo]

How many glock 18's can 51k buy?

100 units more or less.

 

[dcarch]

Glock 18's for 510 dollars? Sign me up!!!

 

[gohogs93]

Maybe I'd pay that for a solid gold 1911 with a diamond hammer , barrel and trigger with John Moses Browning's own signature etched into the slide and that's only been shot one time before and that was by Elvis using it to kill Osama bin Laden.. But for an old stock glock that shoots a widely unused cartridge?? You've gotta be on crack to buy that thing for MORE than the price of a Shelby Mustang. lots of crack.
