Derogatory? Telling you the truth that a gun listed for sale at a LGS listed for $700 means the LGS only paid $4-500 for it? Or asking you how many rounds a month you plan to shoot a cheap 9mm that you want to purchase?
None of your business to butt in. I was asking him a question. I don't need your approval.
Now back to the OP's question. You'd get raped selling or trading a Ruger 1911 since it's a low end gun and doesn't command a premium price. I can get 45ACP for 39 cents per round. The small amount extra...
If you want to purchase for collectibility and future value appreciation, then get a real HK P7. If you want a shooter, the P7Pro looks like a good alternative to the real thing.
You were referring to your P320 which isn't made in any Germany. I too have a Tysons Corner, a P220 with the early spur hammer and ALL my Sigs were made in Eckernförde.
Supposedly Canik has redesigned the S to remedy the mag over insertion issue. Sounds like you have one of the modified ones. Hope it continues to provide you good service. I have a standard Rival that I love to shoot. Best stock polymer trigger I've ever tried.
Those 25 were built from NOS HK components with a few US made small parts, mainly spring pins and other small parts. I think his first 100% built in house guns are supposed to be finished soon.
