Hi everyone!

I'm about to jump into the Glock world with a purchase during spring break. However I have a couple questions before my purchase. As a side note, my experience with pistols is rather limited to M9, 1911, and a Beretta U22. I'm mainly a rifle person, owning a WASR AK, but I do have my grandfather's 1911. Secondly, I'm in young specialist in the Texas Army National Guard.

1. Any experience with GT Distributors? None
   -They have a store not far from me and seem to offer LE pricing for military personnel, including National Guard. Not sure of any other places in Dallas/Ft Worth area that offer that.

2. Nightsight?? Worth the extra cost? Yes dont own a handgun without them
   -GT would install them for free (i would have to pay for the night sights first), so wondering if I should go ahead and add that to my cost.

3. How many magazines should come with the purchase of a new Glock? 3
   -I've been reading conflicting reports online. The U22 that I borrowed only had two mags, so I figured two was standard.

4. What should I look for when buying a Glock in-store? Just ask for a new one that is not in the case. Take it out inspect it for any you should be GTG
   -I've never bought a gun in a store. Always ordered via phone/internet. Filling out the form was no issue. However didn't know if there was anything I should be aware of?

I appreciate any thoughts and comments. Thanks.

1. Any experience with GT Distributors? Definitely order from the LE distributor if you can, you will save lots of money.

2. Nightsight?? Worth the extra cost?   Glock NS are a great value. High quality for not a lot of money. If you like the sight picture, they are GTG.

   -GT would install them for free (i would have to pay for the night sights first), so wondering if I should go ahead and add that to my cost.

3. How many magazines should come with the purchase of a new Glock? All blue label glocks come with 3 mags.

   -I've been reading conflicting reports online. The U22 that I borrowed only had two mags, so I figured two was standard.

4. What should I look for when buying a Glock in-store? I just do a basic inspection to make sure nothing is obvisouly wrong/broke etc... Never had an issue.

There is a GT Distributors in my city, and I've bought numerous Glocks from them. Great store, and you can't beat the mil/LE pricing they have on Glocks.





2. Nightsight?? Worth the extra cost?


   -GT would install them for free (i would have to pay for the night sights first), so wondering if I should go ahead and add that to my cost.





Standard Glock sights suck, so I would recommend new ones anyway. The Glock night sights are fine and only an extra $55 installed at the time of purchase at GT Distributors, so I'd go for it unless you already have a set of aftermarket sights in mind.





3. How many magazines should come with the purchase of a new Glock?


   -I've been reading conflicting reports online. The U22 that I borrowed only had two mags, so I figured two was standard.





3 mags in the mil/LE packages.





4. What should I look for when buying a Glock in-store?

Just make sure you like the gun. GT Distributors does not sell the display guns, so the one you buy will not have been handled by other customers. If you get night sights, make sure they glow and aren't DOA.





I appreciate any thoughts and comments. Thanks.
