Unfortunately, that is a Gen2 not a Gen1

Just stumbled on this. I don't know the value of these things these days but....I assume $7500 a typo, yes?

If it was actually a Gen1, the last two sales that I am aware of (both private sales) sold for over $20,000. This gun is not a Gen1 though.

Holy!!!! What makes them sell for so much? And how do you tell gen 1 from gen 2?

Very few were ever made and most of what was made we’re turned in for Gen2s and destroyed.

Glock only made the 17, 17L and 19 with the Gen1 frame. The earliest model 19s were actually 17 frames cut down to sub-compact size.

You tell what Gen a Glock is by the frame. On the left is a Gen1 17 frame. It has a consistent pebbled finish covering the entire grip. On the right is a Gen2 frame. It has a front and back strip with a rough texture and the pebble only on the sides.

Looks like the light caused my desk to reflect on the side of the Gen1. Sorry about that, late night photo with my phone.

I have a gen. 1 Glock 20 I would be willing to part with for that kind of money, it’s in perfect shape. You need to take that pretty gun out and shoot it.

That’s actually a Gen2. It is the first generation that Glock made the G20. But the G20, like the majority of Glock’s guns, were originally built on the second generation frame - RTF texture on the front and back straps.

2nd Gen was always my favorite and the G20 (and 29) are awesome guns!!!

I’ve been told twice that it’s a gen. 1 and I’ve been told twice it’s a gen. 2. I really don’t care because it’s powerful and holds a lot of ammo in one clip. I bought it new 1994, thanks too Bill Clinton talking about banning high capacity magazines.

It's definitely a Gen2 but that doesn't change anything related to value because the are no Gen1s - it's still the first frame one of Glock's greatest pistols, the G20, was ever built on. Of all the other 10mm that were developed around that time, none of them come close to the G20.

Just before COVID, I added a Gen3 G20c and G21c - they are amazing shooters!

I don’t sell my pistols normally once I buy one. I recently bought a Glock 43x nice shooting gun also.

I buy them too keep, that’s why I buy Glock pistols. I love that they don’t have a safety on them, your finger shouldn’t be on the trigger anyway unless your going to pull the trigger. Their quality pistols is another reason to buy them.
