Don't know for sure, but it's a valid question. The G26 Gen4 also is in very limited supply while the Gen3's are readily available. The G19 Gen4 came out about 6 months ago so you would like to think Glock had done it's homework and established production adequate to meet demand. That being said I'm sure they would like to liquidate the Gen3 invetory.
Glock holding back production ?
Is it true Glock is holding back distribution of G19 Gen 4 ? I have tried to locate one in Denver for weeks and talked to a salesman at Bass Pro who said they might be holding back to sell out the G3's and or to fix issues with the G4. They have not been able to get orders filled ! Any insight here ?

I bought a new 19 Gen 4 yesterday at my local gunstore. They had three in stock.
Glock is still out selling production by 100,000 or so per month. That is down from 230,000 in 2009-2010.
I think the availability of models is dictated by the area of the Country more then anything else. I have no idea why Glock would slow down production on purpose.
Couldn't find a Gen 4 19...then found a store with 7 of them...blue label/LE
I did hear talk of that on some of the other forums as well. I have seen no hard facts though.
I called Glock corp on wed and asked why my order was still on back order and they have 303,000 pistols on back order and they are on a 10-12 week delay on delivery to the distrubutors .
holy Crap Batman! Did Iran place an order? What happened to their production line did they say?I called Glock corp on wed and asked why my order was still on back order and they have 303,000 pistols on back order and they are on a 10-12 week delay on delivery to the distrubutors .
Nope , Just very selective on what they said . Its kinda crazy to hear that from such a HUGE firearm company .
Were they able to provide you with a expected ship date?
That would explain the 10-12 week delivery they described to me on Blue label guns to individual customers...
I'm gonna bother them again for a G36...I can wait if need be...
I couldn't wait due to I sold my SIG 2022 9MM and needed a replacement . it was smooth but very heavy and someone offered to buy it for what I paid for it after putting 250 rounds thru it.
Anytime you can get your money back it's a good deal.I couldn't wait due to I sold my SIG 2022 9MM and needed a replacement . it was smooth but very heavy and someone offered to buy it for what I paid for it after putting 250 rounds thru it.
yep indeed it is ! but sad to have to sell a gun!
As somebody told me...there's always another one...I know what you mean though...
I would be a idiot if I solf my 31 for the price I got for it . 425.00
