Is it just that gun, the glock is around $500 brand new with two mags and add about $40 for the other two mags.
Glock are pretty good guns, ive never owned one but ive heard they are very reliable and Consistent. Do a google search on it or check out gunbroker.com.

"GLOCK 23 Multi purpose .40 Compact dimensions for open and concealed carry, minimum weight despite large magazine capacity in .40 caliber. This and the reliability of the GLOCK pistol known throughout the world, which was demonstrated through tests and widespread use by US law enforcement agencies, were decisive arguments for the F.B.I. and countless police authorities for introducing the GLOCK 23 as their official service pistol.DA. Textured grips. Safe-action system. 3 safeties. Impact-resistant polymer frame. Withstands temperatures -40º/392º. Includes: Cleaning rod, brush, owner's manual, storage container, magazine loader, 2 magazines. "

I had one a these .40cal mini Glocks. It was my daily carry for a long time. It was accurate as any small frame can be, fires 100% of the time with any ammo you can run through it. On the downside for this trade, You can get these guns for about $200 on the used market and the magazines have to have the finger extension or you can't hold onto the weapons during firing.

It was great for me because I have smaller hands but if you have what most would consider normal sized man hands this a palm gun with not much re-sale value.

You're thinking of the 27, which is the subcompact, the 23 is mid size, and is high on my list of the next gun to buy, the 22 is the large frame one. All those are .40 cal btw.

Very good gun, but not worth $500 used.

what would u guess the value to be??
i was thinking it might be easier for me to sell a gun then the truck?

i dunno.. it is probably a more rare truck being that it has a v8.
but given the rust and need a trans i don't value it at much

I would say if you dont have any $$ into the truck go for the gun. Guns are a good investment take a look at it and if it is in decent shape not beat up or anything you could always sell it I think alot easier than the truck jmho good luck I have a blue book of gun values Ill take a look at it in there and see what its going for and get back to ya

I'd make the trade. Glocks are pretty good guns, though I have to admit that I'm partial to my H&K USP.

I found it in the gun values book and they go from $599 new and then from $250 50% cond to $475 in 100% cond. so I would just guess it would be worth around $300 if its in decent shape not all scratched up and stuff. I would still say go for it if the truck isnt costing you anything.
