value of a lnib but used cw45.

I am trying to get an idea what these are selling for rather then what folks are asking for them.. Thanks

like new tells me nuttin, If u take goodcare of a kahr, it will look the same 5 years from now. shootin it certainly woh't show signs of wear. If anything if it is shoot lets say 500-1000 rounds it is etiehr good to go or I would probaby pass on it.

lnib probably tells you that looks wise it is perfect, which makes sense... I bought a used K9 that for me looked as good as any new one, I never ask how many rounds was through it, as I really didn't care. I wanted it to work and indeed it did that perfectly.

wouldyou buy my PMJ9 with over 32K rounds through it if I sold it and advertised it that way??? I would think most who do not know ol jocko would say, hell no, or it would have to be cheaper than hech for me to buy it.

to me it is all about what ur looking for and of course the price has to be good enugh for you to considcer it as a used gun also. This selling a lnib gun for $75 or so less than retail is IMO pure b-sh!t..

Well, new CW45s have been priced between $350-$450 in the past couple years, so I would guess somewhere closer to $300-$350 would be fair if it's all standard with the one magazine.

Edited to add: It looks like Jocko has a more informed opinion than my post. :D

I sold mine for $380, advertised it at $400. Threw in an extra 6 round mag. That was before the hysteria hit.

[jocko]

If I could buy new for $450 and someone advertised a used one for $400, I would buy new every day of the week. 5 year warranty might juyst mean alot down the road. Just sayin

If you have shot it a couple of hundred rounds and can attest that is works good every time, I'd take no less than $350. I paid $350 for mine about a year ago.

By the time you run 4 boxes of ammo through a new one you've spent $100 so a smart person would buy a known good CW45 for $350 without even blinking.

Cabelas and two other LGS had the CW45 priced at $399 which is what I paid for mine.

That's been my feelings.... a well cared for, used gun, saves the Break-in BS of a new one. My k-9 sig & 229.40 were P.D. guns that I bought from the cops, but I knew these guys not your typical mass purchased used batches some of these brokers scoop up. Hint- how does one take care of their firearm? Look at the way they dress and how cared for, their car is. My NYPD k-9 came from a chopper jock who treated it like a piece of jewelry!:yo:
