a good/fair price for one?

Between $600-$700, in excellent condition w/ two mags

I got $600 when I traded mine in. It was in excellent condition.

The first one I bought was somewhere around nine hundred, I think. They were going for a little over a thousand new. The last one I bought was around five hundred, used. Nice LEM trigger, great shape.

I have several variants. The double action/single action isn't much to write home about (cruddy, heavy, gritty double action pull); the LEM trigger is great.

I can’t speak to the current unpleasantness pricing but generally around 600-750 these days.

Now if you come across a German production gun it will likely command a higher price.

Also you will find sellers with new / the or stock that still have them priced at the 1000+ that they originally commanded.

All that said, fantastic do anything gun.

The older ones have a flatter grip resembling the grip on the P2000. The newer production ones have a grip resembling the P30's. I believe the newer ones command a little more.

Full size HK45’s have the “Spider-Man” grip ala the P30.

The HK45 compacts all have the “P2000 grip”.

Why don't you put a want to buy ad in the classifieds here?

The classifieds are an option, thanks for the heads up..

Well you can’t have mine.

I have 3 HK 45cs that I have picked up over the years. All are LEM With night sites. I bought them all slightly used for around $550 each prior to the current madness. I have seen one locally in CT for $650 in the last month Or so.

I never understood why the .45 had the great grip like the P30 and the .45c had the same grip as the P2000.

No idea on current pricing. FYI after 45C production had fully switched to the US there was a release of German made guns that had more aggressive “stippling” on the front and backstraps. The sides were still P2000ish smooth though. No matter they’re fantastic guns.

My favorite carry 45 is my V4 with match trigger, E hammer, USPC control lever and the Gray Guns short reset kit.

I'd say a used one would run $600-$650 or so, at least around here. There's a new one at one of my local stores for $799. It's a standard V1 DA/SA. I initially bought a DA/SA variant and didn't like it much. I shoot several DA/SA pistols and revolvers, including other HKs, but I couldn't get used to the HK45C DA trigger for some reason. I converted it to light LEM and love it now.

It's because the P2000's thinner grips conceal carry better than the wider ones on the P30......

And some of us weirdos prefer the P2000 grip.

I like mine with the p2000 grip. Though I'm thinking of trading for a 1911. I have a USP so I wont miss HK altogether plus I dont carry it. I've seen them go for a bit too.

I picked up one not too long ago. My take

My wife bought me this HK45C for my birthday several years ago. Got it from a family friend / co-worker of mine. She paid $900 for it, but that included 8 mags, DA/SA and light lem components and over 2k rounds.

It's a sweet shooter for sure!

I too really like my HK45C. It's a keeper along with my HK USPc45!
