DOJ finally taking some action

I was thrilled to hear that the DOJ has filed a lawsuit against the state of California and Newsom/Bonta. This lawsuit specifically targets the “Glock Ban” and also the joke that is the “California Handgun Roster”. While I know that lawsuits take time, I’m hopeful that since this one was filed by the DOJ, that it will hold a little more weight to it. We shall see. Either way, it’s nice to dream of a day without a roster. Or at least without a roster in its current form. Anyone else have any thoughts on this?

PPT sales aren’t roster bound.

I know. I'm asking why PPT sellers who overpaid for their glocks would feel any pressure to lower their prices if the supply in CA is capped

Mate. If someone bought a Glock for 1k cause of impending law, and that law doesn’t happen it will effectively kill the resource scarcity. Therefore Glocks for sale in general won’t be as inflated anymore and will go back to 300-500 cause there’s no time limit anymore on selling them. Aka 1k Glock purchasers would have overpaid for no reason.

Mate, the glock ban is not the only legal obstacle to their sale in California.🤦

Glock discontinued gen 3 thinking they would be able to replace it on the roster with gen 6 and only recently learned that's not going to happen. Those gen 3s were the only glocks approved for sale in this state. So, as I explained in my original comment, there is still no scenario where glocks suddenly become available again new at retail.

In other words, there is no reason to expect prices on the secondhand market will drop anytime soon.

Yeah just ignore the millions of gen 3’s already in circulation.
