Hi Cuz...... Why buy a gun to send in to get fixed?????? Free or not. I don't buy JUNKS... Any thing in the safe is a min. of 98% condition OR BETTER. I worked way TOOOOOOOOOOOOOO hard for my $$$$ to spend on stuff that doesn't work or need tto be repaired. Not sure if my dealer is gonna send the Glocks in or not. I think he dumped them already...In my eyes it was no great loss. I quess I'll stick with my Smiths and Rugers.........
Jadek,
Sorry man, I must have misunderstood you. I thought the gun shot like crap maybe because the barrel was worn. As far as why you would buy a gun only to send it in to get fixed, that is easy. Maybe you could steal it from a dealer or seller simply because it was beat and shot like crap, then, (if it's a GLock) you could send it to them and they'd fix it up like brand new for FREE. Then you end up with a GREAT gun at a very good price. That would be a very sweet deal to those who might not be able to afford a new gun. If you don't buy junk and all your guns are 98% or better, then why are you looking at a PD trade in? There are a few G23's available on this board right now that are newer and it better condition. While I did recommend the G23 earlier simply because of the two options you gave, it would actually be one of my last choices as it's my least favorite Glock. Good luck with whatever you decide to do.
-Cuz.
