I foolishly traded my previous Glock 20, and was wanting to replace it. Then, 2020 hit; and I couldn’t find a Glock of any kind, anywhere. 2-3 times a week, I’ve checked Firearmss’ website, looking for another Glock 20. Today, that perseverance paid off! Firearmss not only had one; but they had one in the color I wanted! Firearmss is my ‘go to’ gun store.
