Default buddy needs money, selling me his gun, did i get ripped off

My buddy is selling me his mint GLOCK 27 with nite sights & 2 mags, 4 boxes of FMJ (200 rounds) & one box of HP (50 rounds) he's also throwing in a AR-15 30 round mag for $400. How bad am I getting ripped-off

I've seen used glocks going for $450 without all the extras. I think I paid $120 or so just for my night sights.

Strange...does the Glock 27 have a external safety???


Or are you lowering your standards to a better pistol

I think he is trying to rip off his buddy so he can then turn around and sell it and rip someone else off by overcharging for it, or he is going to get that one guy who will install the slide safety on it so he can carry it without the gun shooting him, since you know that guns kill people....

the glock is a functional gun, even though it's ugly & doesn't have a frame mounted safety

I was thinking of adding a frame mounted safety to my glocks, but It would be better to just carry a 1911, BROWNING HI-POWER, CZ-75, or H & K USP
BTW this is where you can get the frame mounted safety installed on your glock http://tenring.com/glock-pistol-work-2/

I like my 1911 or the H & K USP.......has a decocking mechanism that allows the hammer to be carried down and the first round is discharged double action.......single action thereafter (with my variant anyways).

Put the hammer back & flick your safety lever up & see if your H & K USP has ****-n-lock
