Handgun Used Price discussion (glock imparticular)

[ricsha]

Guns, like other "things" seem to be worth what the buyer is willing to pay. I don't think I've ever made money on a gun sale; but, I've sometimes enjoyed the opportunity to sell a familiar gun, in order to buy a new and unfamiliar gun. I have a local FFL that will try to find me what I want for his cost + 10% or so. Bigger gun sellers like Keith's and Gunbroker, even Bi-Mart seem to price similarly. I seldom see guns sell for MSRP, but that's what some sellers seem to use to place a value on their used gun. I don't know why I would pay more for a used gun than a new one, assuming it is available.

I have been looking at the prices in the classified adds and have to laugh at times. Your right about paying a little more or in some cases no more to get a new gun. It's best to shop around both here and at dealers. Best of luck to you

9mm is the NATO round, along with 5.56 and 7.61 NATO. If the SHTF, those might be the ammo cans you might find? Anyway, I'm making sure I have one gun of each at least.

I too like the FTF sale and will pay a little more for it or drive a ways for it. Last two didn't even do any paperwork - just glanced at my CCW and took my money. Again, if the SHTF...

Head to any police station and i'm sure you will find plenty of .40S&W

7.61 NATO is hard to come by though!

There are a lot of first time handgun buyers out there that do not do much research, if any, on what is a fair price for a new or used handgun. They simply know they want it now.
