    I say sell one of the Glocks. You probably will regret it but not as much as you will regret not having a rifle when the next panic comes. Like someone posted earlier we are just one stupid event away from a panic, and you can be sure that if Hillary is elected there will be another one. Sell the Glock, get he BCM and then start buying ammo for it. At the very least you should be buying ammo now.

    Which option will get you shooting the soonest? Keeping the G17 and continuing to save? Or selling it and getting your rifle ordered? Do any of the local shops carry a quality AR carbine that allows layaway? In my opinion, six months of shooting beats six months of waiting. With one Glock and one AR, you could join your local training group and and least get started. Once you've got your AR and ammo, you can start saving towards a replacement pistol or go put one on layaway.

    Of your choices, I agree with the rest of the guys- Get the BCM. You should also consider the Colt

    Are the two G-17s the only pistols in your inventory? If not, you might want to consider selling off whatever else you have in order to get your AR ASAP if you're serious about getting into a quality AR platform. A basic BCM will run $1150-$1200. A Colt 6920 or 6720 will run $1000.

    Add 1000 rds of ammo, sling, light with mount, and a dozen quality magazines, and you're looking at an extra $700+. Budget accordingly.

    I'd cast my vote like that as well.

    I guess it comes down to how long you'll need to save to buy that AR. If the next few paychecks will do it, keep the pistols. If it takes 4-12 months or longer, sell a pistol and some other stuff. The real issue you will have later is affording enough ammo and mags to feed that thing (perhaps some training, too). IME, that's were the most money is spent, if you agree that having a nice stockpile keeps you warm at night.

    2 is 1, 1 is none....... but no rifle = no good. New Glock 17 gen 3 and gen 4 can be had on GB for $499 Buy Now. There is even a Gen 3 FDE for $499. What Gen are your 17s, are they new or fired by you, any upgrades like sights, and most importantly do you have a buyer? Preferrably local so you don't have to ship Overnight (if you abide by UPS or Fed Ex ridiculous, expensive mandates to Overnight pistols).

    I would sell a Glock, but I don't think you will net anywhere close to $500 if they can be bought new from vendors who can use cheaper shipping. If you can, then sell one pistol.

    PS alternative plan, eat ramen noodles every day and buy your AR in just two months

    If you sell a glock, you can get THIS!

    http://www.bravocompanyusa.com/BCM-1...6elw-kmr13.htm

    If you wait, you can get the Cold Hammer Forged version. I didn't wait. Very happy with my purchase.

    IF you get it now, you can get some training under your belt before Obama destroys America this summer. ( a little shout out to the "sky is falling" crowd...GoOO Builder-Burgers!! )

    I can't tell you what to do, that's your decision. But one of the G17s is going bye-bye. I don't worry about Glocks failing, mine has gone several thousand rounds without a burp.
