The gun is used in the original box probably 95% gun. I dont have the paper work for the gun. Hope this helps.

By "first generation," do you mean the initial smooth pebble-grain grip frame variation with no finger grooves? If so, maybe there is some collector interest. I see from the annual Glock magazine that there is a Glock collector's association, so one must assume there are Glock collectors. I have one of the early ones bought new in 1985, and hold on to it because it is the first variation of a very important firearm of our time.
It is my understanding that the early boxes are also desirable because they were soon changed so that a cocked pistol could not be put in the box. (Too many ADs from idiots putting loaded guns in the early boxes and firing them when putting the trigger guard over the post.)
With refurbished Glocks selling so inexpensively, I wonder what a worn older pistol is worth? It is not worth as much as a shooter as later guns with all the improvements, but it might be worth more to a "Glock Collector" who is looking for an early-style pistol and box (assuming that is what you have). The wear and missing papers hurt quite a bit to a collector. I would guess $350 to $400.0 -
Thanks for all your help "Judge". I will contact the Glock collector's. 0 -
Most Glock shooters prefer the later models. I like the 1st generation because I use a Hogue Hand-all grip over it.
If I'm not mistaken, the 1st generation is as Judge stated, the second generation added finger-grooves on the grip, and the 3rd generation still has the finger-grooves but adds the accessory rail on the bottom/front under the barrel.
It doesn't matter what you shoot, just shoot it well...0
