Buying used police issued?
Local shop got a shipment of used police return g22's. Thinking of picking one up. They are asking around $350. Any concerns with something like this?

Hell no. Buy as many as you can!
Keep this in mind. Police weapons are rarely fired outside of training. A sad statement in regards to law enforcement training, but a sweet deal for gun buyers.
Also look out for law enforcement issued Sig's.
Around here, unless you're in the shop when a shipment arrives, these LE issued pieces get gone immediately.

Good for it. Glock does not = impervious to neglect. Are they probably in perfect working order? Yeah. Except for those pretty custom 1911's, most modern handguns can take quite a bit of abuse/neglect and still function. Doesn't mean he shouldn't check it out before laying down the $$.
