I'm in a quandary. Do due health, retirement an downsizing, I have to drastically reduce the number of weapons I have. I'm having to be practical and for the vast majority it hasn't been too bad except for 1 item. A number of years ago I was at a Friends of the NRA banquet and bid and won a pistol. A Sig Sauer P226 MK25. Friends of NRA pistol of 2013. It comes in a special Pelican hard case, instruction manual, factory papers and lock. Box bears the Friends of NRA Logo. Medallion included commemorates the Navy SEALs Foundation. I like it alot but unfortunately I have no practical reason to keep it, but I would like too. If I decide to get rid of it is there much call for something like this?

You can always decide how much you want for it and post an ad in the classifieds.

Then you can change the title of this thread so as not to appear as clickbait.

I would think there is little to no value beyond the value of the MK25 pistol itself. Some may like the addition of the case, others may want a factory box. I don’t think the addition of the NRA logo would do much at all. For me personally, my only interest would be in the used MK25 and would pay accordingly. Others may pay a premium, I would not. The MK25 is my favorite Sig which was made even better by installing a GGI SRT a trigger kit and springs.

For me the markings de-value the gun greatly and it would be a hard no for me to even consider buying it.

It’s NIB, price it accordingly. The Friends of NRA adds nothing of value besides a pelican box.

Doesn’t appear it has any extra markings besides the factory ones.

If you like it, you will regret selling it. Guaranteed.

The gun itself is no different from thousands of other MK25s out there. Friends of NRA sticker, the Navy SEALs Foundation medallion and the Pelican case might have additional value to someone out there but not to me.

My Kahr CW9 was a lesser banquet gun. I got it for a good deal less than a standard model after the winner traded it in for something else, still unfired.

NRA logo and "1012 out of 1125" got no premium.

I agree with the others, that the markings other than the factory ones really hold no value. The case may be worth a little more to someone with the package.
