I have not purchased a brand new firearm in almost 20 years. The reason is that there has not been a brand new handgun that has interested me enough to purchase it. I dont like plastic, I dont like striker fired guns. So used guns, made prior to the year 2000 is all that interests me. Regards 18DAI 7+1 Rounds of hope and change | |||

It makes no difference to me. A lot of used guns are very much like new with very few rounds. I know many people who buy guns, never shoot them, then realize they cannot afford them, and sell. I buy both new and used. It comes down to peice for me. I never believe anyone when they say like new used and try to sell for full retail msrp. Sometimes I buy used looking guns for real cheap because for some strange reason I like the tarnished look. Like a Gen2 Glock LEO trade in or those LE trade ins at AimSurplus. | |||

I bought a couple of new 2022 sigs from Palmetto a few years ago. They had night sights, came with mail in offer for free carry bag and extra mags from sig. These were $399 with free shipping. Usually I go with good used. My P226 in 357 came from a gunstore where an older gentleman had purchased it. He fired 1 mag thru it and traded it back in 3 years later. He said it was too loud and had a lot of muzzle flash. I ended up getting it for $425 out the door with factory case and goodies. Most of my guns could be sold and get maybe $50more than I paid. At least break even. I bought my 556xi from Osage when they first came out. It was full price, but cheaper than other places nd came with a lot of goodies!! | |||
