Hi everyone, this is my first post here as I'm brand new. I've looked into handgun options for practicing with/home defense/potentially CC down the road. I like the 4th or maybe even 3rd gen G19, but don't know the best way to go about getting one. The glock website lists retailers, which include local fred meyers and sportsman warehouse type places, which I am sure would only sell 4th gen products.
I live near Portland, so that would be most convenient for me to buy one (or near). What are the pros and cons or just simply going to a fred meyer or similar, vs. a dedicated gun shop, vs buying used on a forum (like this one)? I am a complete novice in all of these matters, so all advice is much appreciated!
Thanks
