Hey everybody! Just turned 21 and have obtained my license to conceal. I have been looking at guns and as a first question would like to know if 450.00 is a good deal for a glock 26 used? That is tax and everything. Thanks for any information. Can't wait to participate on the site.

Welcome aboard! I love my Glock 26, but that price may be a little high depending on how old and worn it is. If it is a newer G-26 with only a few rounds through it, it might be a decent deal. If it is older with tons of rounds through it, not so much.

Does it have night sights? Do you know the generation of the weapon? Have you fired a G-26 yet? Most of us here recommend that you shoot a number of weapons to make sure you find the one(s) that fit you best.

Good luck!

I appreciate everyones responses. I have been renting some guns at our local ranges and have enjoyed shooting. I love the glocks and the m&p's.

Welcome from the Florida Keys. I would suggest you keep renting until you have rented all you can.

Welcome from Oklahoma


Not knowing I cannot say, therefore being insufficiently qualified to impart the information desired I feel a slight delicacy in articulating.

Welcome to the forum from Florida! I got my Glock 23 for $450 new through my GS. I saw them at the gun show last weekend for @ $475 new, maybe hit a gun show?



It's better to have a gun on you and not need one, than to need one and not have one on you!
