So asfaik, the G47 isn't available right now to purchase in MD, however, I'm more interested in the "19L" aspect of it than having the 19X side of it as well. I currently own a 19MOS that I CCW.
So my options as I see it are:
1: Wait for it to get on the roster and buy a 47 whole (~$700 after FFL/Shipping Fees, and most FFLs will probably mark up a bit anyway, Buy a G19 Lower (~$250), and essentially have the 47 frame just sit in the safe.
2: Get the G19 Frame (~$250) and then get a 47 Upper (~$580+Shipping). Don't have to wait for it to be on the roster, and won't have an extra frame laying around.
I've currently got a 17 I'm considering selling as it feels just a bit too big for me, while the 19 grip is fine, as is my 26 with the mag extension (essentially making it 19 length anyway). Is there any downside to option 2 here?
