Explain please. Inflated on what exactly? Are you saying used former-LEO Glocks in your area are expensive?

You will never see A Ruger pistol in the Military/LE markets until they produce a pistol that can compete in that arena, which they don't.FergusonTO35 said:Maybe when Ruger stops making flavor of the year CFSA's that aren't mostly subject to recalls, poor quality issues, click no bang issues, and discontinuation after only a few years on the market ... As well as making parts all but unavailable ... I'll try to take them more seriously
Agreed. I love Ruger's core products but these issues cause me to pass on the LC series. The Italian vs. USA magazine thing is just ridiculous.
And people wonder why LEO's rarely (if ever) use them?
In all fairness this is mostly due to Glock's aggressive monopolistic behavior towards the LE market and the fact that most cops don't get to choose what they carry.
Here's some reasonable used Glock prices for you! I've bought from Mark before .... always been happy and shipping was $20 to my local FFL.
