How Desirable are the GLOCK 17L and 24?

**SteveO666** · April 18th, 2017, 10:16 AM

Was on another Online Gun sale site and saw someone mentions of the GLOCK 17L and 24.I know that these items are RARE but was curious if I came across one for a good price would it be worth picking up?

Thanks,
Steve

To me they're not worth much. I don't like the gen3 grip at all. They also don't fit in the IDPA box.

However, if you want a Glock with the longest possible sight radius, that would be your ticket.

All that said, if I found one at the right price, I'd snag it. Anyone want to trade a Gen3 G35 for a 17L?

I handled a 17L at a LGS this year. I was told Glock makes them in limited run batches every few years.

I really liked it. The price was right at $667. I've seen them online for as much as $750.

I thought about it, didn't buy it, went back on a different day, but she was loooong gone.

Recently, in the classified section of PAFOA someone had a Glock 24 from 2004 listed for sale with the frying-pan finish LNIB with an extra ported barrel for $899.

I want a G24. Had one in hand and well...d
Couldn't pull the proverbial trigger. Maybe some day

Tanners Gun shop in Jamison is taking deposits for summer delivery,, cost is $595.....$100non refundable deposit.

I put my money down for 1 of each. Always said I wanted to collect all 9mm models so had to get the 17L and figured I would get the 24 as a collector.
I was 2nd on the 17L list and he believes I was 1st on the 24List.

Time to save pennies for June

I'll probably buy a G24 now that I can get one for around $600, have been wanting one for a while. They were going for well over that a lot of places since Glock didn't make any in a while. I'd prefer a Gen2, maybe price will drop some on them too. Would be nice if they would run some colored frames, would like OD Green or Battlefield Green.

I see them at shows once in a while. I admit I've thought about buying one several times. It's too big to carry, I probably can't shoot it any better than my 17 and the prices are up in the high 6's. So far I've passed on them.

Not meaning to be a jerk, just confirming you meant Tanners in Jamison. Authority Arms and Target World are in Chalfont...

Sub $600 may be a "good enough" price for me, especially if I can get someone to buy the 35 I never shoot...
