Jeff O Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Anybody know anything about these ? I'm looking for a back-up competition gun. When i completely disassemble the gun I can tell no difference from new. What do you think guys ? (About $200 less than new, all same stuff in box, 3 mags) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimmyZip Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 This is how all Glocks should be purchased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranger Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Living in Atlanta, I buy used Glocks and take them to Glock Smyrna and they "inspect" them for me. "Inspect" so far has been replace everything but the barrel, slide, and frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Jacket Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 (edited) I have a gen 3 34. Looks like it was at the range once. They are a great deal. If I could have got a refurb 17 I would have in a minute. Buy it quick Edited February 28, 2013 by Blue Jacket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonInWA Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 My only concern for you would be for you to determine to your satisfaction that what you have was in fact a gun refurbished by Glock...If it is, I'd have absolutely no concerns over it. If you have questions, simply call Glock, ask for Tech Support, and they should be able to provide verification based on the serial number. Best, Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ima45dv8 Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 As Jon said, if it is indeed a 'factory' refurbish, go for it. My daily carry gun for the last year tends to rotate between two Gen3's -- a 19 and a 21 -- both with the RTF2 frmae. Both are factory refurbs. I've shot them both quite a bit and neither has given me anything but confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flexmoney Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 My first Glock (which I drove to GM in Limited and then in Production) was a factory refurb. I don't know that I put 100k rounds through it, but I certainly put over 50k through it. I think the refurbs actually carry a stated lifetime warranty...where any other Glock doesn't. (I think Glock backs them all anyway.) It sticks in my mine that the refurbs are stamped with a "7" inside the dust cover? I don't know anything about the gen4 guns, really.

lsr1238 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Where does one get a factory refurbished Glock, especially for $200 less than new? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.Hayden Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Of course, depends on availability.. I got mine here: http://summitgunbroker.com// Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flexmoney Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 I am not sure where one would get a refurb now. I got mine off gunbroker...about a decade ago. You might simply walk into Mordor and ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nik Habicht Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 I had a Glock refurbed 19 about 10-12 years ago -- it was fine, and came with one 15 round and one ten round mag, prior to 2004, in NJ..... I'd buy one again if I were in the market.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericjhuber Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 If I were in the market for a Glock and could get one that was refurbed by Glock, I'd be very interested in that. As long as the slide, barrel, and receiver are in good condition (and I'm sure they would be if it was the Glock folks doing the work), the other parts are relatively cheap to replace if you had to do that after purchase. I've been buying my Glocks through the GSSF discount program, but if I needed more than one a year, I'd look very closely at doing this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hornetx40 Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 I too would buy one with no worries. With the warranty take it out and test it if something is wrong take it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkvibe Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 I have a gen 4 G35 that was factory refurbished. It looked almost brand new out of the box. To be fair I changed a ton of parts before I ever shot it but I have had zero issues with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ima45dv8 Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 A "factory refurb" means that, if actually done by the (GLOCK) factory, and not just by a certified armorer, all small items have been carefully inspected for wear and generation and replaced with new parts as necessary. That's not to say certified armorers would not do the same, but when worked over by the factory, it's a given fact. ...the other parts are relatively cheap to replace if you had to do that after purchase Not needed after a factory rebuild, except for normal wear-and-tear. And that's a long way down the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
