used but kept is near new condition by a dedicated gunsmith. sold a part of his collection with a foldable micro optic and three magazines along with everything standard in the case. 700 flat, with ability to haggle. this one was JUST set out as I went to leave, opinions?
Buy one brand new for less without the great value doodoo Amazon optic
The title of this post reads like it was typed by a used car salesman
Looks like a gameboy SP
“Dedicated gunsmith” has terrible taste in optics 🤣
Must be dedicated to something else.
Yeah I was looking at that optic so confused! I’m like somewhat distracted by alcohol but still wouldn’t give up my Trijicon RMR that I’ve been using for a couple of years and love!! (I never thought it should fold down either lol!
$700 for a used gun with an airsoft optic. Thats a no from me
No gunsmith put that Amazon tier airsoft optic on their pistol. This is NOT a deal, someone is trying to rip you off.
That's why I asked, never seen the optic but the gun is in wonderful condition.
Don’t.
Airsoft crap
Gonna be a yikes for me dawg.
Gun store lore lol
Well, you always get a weird or bad gun at any pawn or used buy gunstore. What I didn't show was the flamethrower they carry for 699.99
That optic won't survive one magazine
No
Lmfao
Hard pass
Hell ( and I cannot stress this part enough) no
XD after looking up the optic, I feel the same way
what in the cyberpunk is going on here 🤨
The person who sold it to the shop had an airsoft foldable optic
Imagine seeing that optic on a gun and thinking it's a good thing..
Never said it was good, just said it was there.
Throw the whole gun away!
No
Tell him to take the optic off and you'll give him $500 for the gun lol.
Seems gimicky
Eww
More like fuddsmith.
Gottem
Someone send that optic to Sage Dynamics 🤣
A folding optic mounted on a slide that rapidly moves front to back just doesn’t seem like a good idea.
“Everyone knows adding a cheap $40 Amazon optic adds at least $150 to the value”~ gun shop probably.
Wash your hands brother
I have. They stay perpetually dirty from the oil I work with in my machine shop.
So it’s a factory Glock 17 gen5 mos that has $40 eBay special flip up optic on it. So $450-$550 would be a fair price.
It's a glock 41 I believe.45 acp
Slide extends past the frame so it's at least a 34, 40 or 41. If it's a 34, it's not far from the new price and does not include the MOS cover for when you take that thing off.
Troll or nah
Nah. Genuinely didn't know what kind of price I should have been asking. Better to look stupid and gain Information than to pay a horrible price and look even more stupid showing Jr off after purchase
Plz be b8
Whoever put that optic on knows nothing about guns
Damn the optic flips up so cool.lol Most respectable gun stores don’t carry that optic
What’s the optic
35 dollar airsoft optic. There are some made for real guns but I highly doubt thats what it is.
God I’m terribly immature. I thought he was setting up a Joe Mama joke. 😐
Hey lemme know if he has any fully custom at-15 builds for 3 grand.
It’s an Airsoft replica toy gun! Check the mag. Round plastic balls. /s
No glock is worth 700$ imo they are utilitarian aka the price should reflect that. They are great guns but not at the price of lets say a sig… PS I own a glock 19 gen 4 bone stock and I love it. Got it new for 450 years ago when the gen 5 first came out.
Trash ass red dot
Fuckity fuck no. Fuck. No.
Maybe Joe can help you out,when he's not taking advantage of new gun owners!
Oof 4 u
$700 for this is a rip off. Obviously it’s a Glock so it’s a good gun but it’s not worth $700, with or without the airsoft red dot. I would bet that red dot is no more than $40 maximum on Amazon.
is that a Airsoft red dot lol
Those folding red dots never hold zero , every time you fold them it causes a shift change
Fuck no!!! 😂😂😂😮💨😮💨😮💨
Would he take $800?
Haggle it to 1.5k, absolute steal
If it has a fold out bayonet and a tac sac buy it
Negative famo
Lmao
Conversation.... priceless
Opinion? Throw that optic in the trash for the guy and reject this shitty deal. He's trying to get one over on you.
This optic is Bull-ish
That red dot belongs on a BB guns
I don’t even understand the advertised benefit of a foldable optic. Like what are they marketed for? Who buys them?
Absolutely poverty budget. Found out after I made the post that it's a VISM pro red dot. Rated for handguns but still not as good as the cheapest low budget fixed sights.
Ever watch star wars? don't do it...It's a Traph!!!
Generally I distrust VISM anything but I've seen reviews of their relatively newer stuff and they seem to hold up. I wouldn't trust my life to one and I don't so I spend a bit more money on optics on guns I actually use, but for a plinker like a rimfire I would put one of these on for funsies.
What stupid gimmicky bullshit lol
Those red dots are beyond use less, absolutes garbage. Have had a couple customers come to because they won’t hold zero through a magazine.
Your finger was on the trigger.
Didn't even notice that. Thanks for pointing it out.
Nothing wrong with a finger on a trigger
That Optic alone should scare you from buying the gun. No one in their right mind would install that thing.
Yuck. Go home.
Tell em $550 and they can keep the toy gun optic
Did Joe help with the NICS check?
Yes he did. Quite a nice gentleman too
His taste in optics, tells me all I need to know, I would pass on it when you could buy a new one without that suit optic for that price
Rip for Joe having to deal with that guy
Me or the guy who he bought it from? Joe is a wonderful guy, I really hope I didn't do something to make him angry or distressed.
Hopefully Joe can help that guy.
Fucking red anodized airshit optic
Vism is dog shit
[softly] Don’t.
Not sure why anyone would want a foldable optic but at that price you should just buy one new and put on an optic that isn’t trash. Also if this “dedicated gunsmith” put that on there I wouldn’t trust him to be a competent and dedicated gunsmith.
I wouldn't trash him, his skill with what he does is quite commendable. As a local Smith he's been a great guy for my rifle needs and I've heard good about his work on my friends handguns. But you're right, this optic was a very bad choice.
Tell Them to remove the fake optic and put a holosun on for the same price
That gunsmith reminds me of a guy I work with trying to sell me a nameless lower that is completely polymer and is “the best lower he’s shot.”
His work is actually commendable. He's a local guy who mainly works on long-guns with a emphasis on the AR platform.
If you’re gonna run an optic, run a optic. That is garbage.
I'll probably run a holosun or vortex of some kind
Is that a 34?
41, chambered in .45.
why tf would I want my optic to fold
Because it's tactical.
Pleab
I dont know how to reasond to that.
I know that guy’s pain with LEEP
If it was a sig or holosun optic and factory mags yea
NC star, make the first shot count It's all you'll get
Take the optic and leave the Glock
For all those trashing the sight, you are right to assume it's bad. However after some digging I found out that it is a VISM ret dot pro. These are actually rated for large caliber pistols (if I had the right info) and come very cheap. So it turns out theoptic is actually really cool and functional
These chinesium companies are not run by Abraham Lincoln bro. They have the ability to lie and they do it a lot.
OP name does not check out.
So I went on Amazon and looked up “flip up red dot sight” and there was a dot with the color of “Gary”. Boi

Imagine if eotech set out make a folding red dot.
Of all the upsetting things on Reddit, this is the worst
No way that holds zero
If the gunsmith had that optic he must not be a very good gunsmith. Looks over priced that optic is not worth much or very good. A new mos goes for about 650 I have recently bought a few used in good condition glocks for 400-500. Heck you can buy a police trade in for 379 and buy a better optic and still be cheaper then that
Minus the sight best gun you’ll ever own Glock.41 cus I own one
Holy shit, that's so stupid
They're trying to rip off people that don't know any better by putting shit like that on their guns. Most shops know better, and do that solely to scam people new to guns.
Dog shit
That optic is worth exactly $0 if not less but MSRP on a 34 is $700 anyway. I’d probably buy a new one if it was me but you’d be fine if you bought that.
Cheap ebay red dot lol
Im scarred for life seeing that optic
What in the fuck
That optic looks like a 30 dollar ebay one that doesn't hold zero and flaps itself to pieces on the first shot.
Wish.com optics
" A used gun..... that's a good one". -some Nigerian warlord from Lord of War.
So the optic is shit.. for $700 you could get a new factory model.. and probably have $50-$80 in your pocket for ammo or put it towards some tritium sights / or a red dot if you’re one of those guys
Tell me your gunsmith went to SDI without telling me they did.
No.
Anyone putting that dot on a pistol is not a gunsmith.
No no no no no no no no
Not worth it the sights aren’t even night. I would just buy or build a new one.
At great risk of sounding like a Fudd, I don't trust a pistol with an optic that isn't iron sights. I say this as someone that owns a pistol with a red dot. I took that crap off first time I took it to the range and got really good using the front sight like a shotgun bead since they didn't bother including an actual rear iron that wasn't part of the red dot.
I'm suprised he didn't use wood screws with how trash that setup is
It looks like it's a gen4 MOS but why did they mount that fucky optic directly to the stock slide cover? (not an MOS plate)
A nice glock ruined by a wish optic
I’d rather blind fire from the hip than use that optic.
I wouldn't drop 7 bills on it
If it had a legit optic on it, like maybe a vortex, that might be close to a fair deal.
You can get a brand new MOS G41 for $35 less
I can’t imagine folding optics are great but the concept is really neat
OP is an idiot
🤮
Cheaper than that brand new
Trash 🗑
Wtf is this trash? Shit belongs on a nerf gun
Does that lock into position? You bump it, raise the gun back up on target…. Your target is still there and now he is laughing…and then it blocks your irons…..
