I know a business in BC that recently bought a used Glock 17 Gen 3 for $75.00

That is how little they pay

Haha I remember a gun store in the GTA that paid $25 for a .357 desert eagle in mint condition.

Thats nuts!

I dont know why these fellows who are selling them for dirt cheap dont just strip them and sell them for parts

Lots of people looking for everything minus the frame

And you will get most likey 50% or more of orginal purchase price too

That's because they can't sell them other than to other businesses.

We buy (not that low though) and use at our range and for parts.
