There a empty space in my gun safe, so I'm thinking with is better. Now I have found (locally) a new gen 3 G20 there price is $699 and a other local Glock 20 gen 5 for $649. The Gen 3 is not a short frame (would be nice) and has the 2 magazines. The G20 gen5 has the 3 mags, back straps and is cut for MOS which I'll probably never do. Whats your thoughts?

They both sound overpriced...
It's my personal opinion that any gun made after the Gen3 are inferior guns. That's the Gen3 that's actually an old pre Gen4 gun and not one of the new Gen3s made for certain states.
Glock had a steel process they did to older guns that made them extremely resistant to corrosion. That being the tenifer process. It was different from their finish coating. If you were buying a real Gen3 and didn't care about optics that's the one I'd opt for. Your modern shooter doesn't care about the tenifer process and is happy with whatever finish they give the guns today as long as it has an optics cut.
