Ah, thanks for the detailed readon
Still doesn't answer my question. Not a glock armorer but the only difference is the grip texture and the dual recoil springs. They want you to shoot, but with more recoil than them?
Again, not an armorer. My local won't even let me inside of one without buying, that's why I don't buy from him.that is not correct. Different frame, slide, sear housing, trigger bar. etc. etc.
I have a Gen 4 G19, and it was made in Austria, according to the marking on the gun...Gen4's are made here in the USA.
Gen3's are assembled from imported parts in the USA.
The Pentagon ordered 40,000 Gen4 Glock 19s for the Marines and SEALs. The next 40,000 Glock makes are going to fulfill that order, so yes there is a shortage of them in the civilian pipeline.
Bud's has a LOT of Glocks in stock.

I would imagine that there is nothing inherently different in a Glock 17 and a Glock 17 "blue label".If you're not willing to take a discount you're entitled to, yes they're out there. But why pay a premium?
When your dealer orders one of the most popular guns in the world and it takes 10 weeks to get there, there's a shortage in the supply chain.
Simply put the difference is about $150 less and an extra magazine.I would imagine that there is nothing inherently different in a Glock 17 and a Glock 17 "blue label".
I would also think that Glock might be limiting the number of "blue label" guns as they are obviously selling them at a higher price elsewhere. Why sell a Glock for $325 when others are willing to give you $500? Glock is first and foremost a business and they are 100% financially motivated.
I understand, but there is not "shortage" of Glock pistols, simply it might be that Glock is allocating less of their inventory to making them less money.Simply put the difference is about $150 less and an extra magazine.
I'd rather spend less to get more where I'm able to.
