Moonlighter’s correct.
Personally, *unless you “must” have a Gen 5* there are way too many like new, perfectly suitable le trade-ins for under $350, such as:
Find the FFL of your choice local to you, shop for what the charge to do transfers, email a copy of that FFL’s license to online vendor, order the gun online shipped to your FFL and you can get a great Gen 4 for well under $400:
More here (and they charge NO TAX!):

I've seen LE shotgun trade-ins. They usually look pretty rough and used hard. What might be the risks with a LE handgun trade-in?
Yes and more times than not le trade ins are closer to like new than rough.
I’ve purchased over a dozen le trade ins and have posted photos here of some that were nothing short of pristine. Crazy really.
You can shop the vendors and see some will indicate condition …

It's fairly inexpensive and gives you a good discount on two glocks (blue label coupons provided one year apart)
Very hard to do or find, with Glocks
Good to know.
Are you planning on mounting an optic / electronic dot sight on it?
If so then you probably do want do look for a slide thats already drilled and tapped for a mount

Glock 17 Survives 18-Year, 250,000-Round Torture Test Including 6 Months in Ocean
The following Glock torture test piece was written in 2007. It's been sitting in our archives and we thought it

Thats what I was thinking.
Unless it has been run over by a truck, or used as a hammer for a few years, at worst you might need to replace the recoil spring assembly on them and MAYBE the striker spring. If you know what you are doing one is a 30 second job and the other about a 4 minute job. If you don't know, it is 4 minutes and 10 minutes including the time to youtube.
Both are wear items. Figure about 5k rounds on the recoil spring (can easily last more than 10k though, but why not replace it sooner when they are less than $10?) and the later IIRC is around 10-20k rounds?
Granted, I picked mine up sight seen, but I got a LE trade in G21 March 2020. Great shape. Nice grip tape on it. I replaced the striker and recoil springs "just in case" for less than $15. The only "issue" was that the tritium sights on it were basically dead. Daylight worked fine, but they weren't tritium/fiber, so not great to read in daylight. So I swapped them out for some truglo fiber.
I don't think I've had a single issue with it at all in the probably 1000 rounds I've put through it since.
I recently paid 435 for a used like new 17 gen 5.
I knew that Glocks were usually robust and reliable, generally. You guys are really singing the praises so I won't worry about "wear and tear" overly much.
I have taken one down on my bench before. I'm certain I can replace these springs and parts with no problem.

$540 G17 Gen 5 New at J&K in Havre De Grace. Typically where I buy most of my guns. They have some of the best prices around locally.
