P6s back in stock @ J&G

[mospeada]

J&G has the P6 back in stock. Price increased to $370.

What sucks is the fact that they are charging you for the extra mag and for the duty holster, which comes with each gun originally.

At least that's what the dealer that I bought my P6 from told me when I got mine (over a year ago)...came with two original Sig mags and he told me to pick a holster from the pile on the table...

Shocking.

A gun price increasing....

While you may think this sucks, nobody is forcing anyone to buy from them and if someone else had them in stock and offered the holster and extra mag with them, I'd suggest buying form them instead.

Many wholesalers take the extras out of the boxes. It's not illegal but I think unethical. I try to deal with the wholesalers and local dealers that give you what comes with the gun and not try to sell the stuff to you at an extra cost.

I don't know if I'd go so far as "unethical," that's a pretty harsh word...but it does suck for us buyers trying to maximize our dollars.

But thanks. Your post was my point. I think next time I'll just say something along to lines of suggesting folks buy their P6 (in this example) from a friendly Indiana gun shop, like Rendevous Gun Shop, if they can, so that they can get all the extras that import with the gun, with the gun they buy.

Now when I visit Rendevous' table at the 1500 this weekend, they better not make a liar out of me.

Last summer, when I was looking into getting one of these babies, J&G had a lower price than Aim or CDDN, but didn't include the second mag or holster. I think that's fair.

I ended up missing these the first go, luckily INGO saved the day.

Do you happen to remember what they were going for when they first came into the country? I got mine for $299 with the second mag and holster at the May 2008 1500.

I just think it's an interesting demand type thing I guess. I remember one day just out of the blue seeing a bunch of threads on different forums about West German police trade-in Sigs hitting the market and how great of a buy they were.

I bought mine from AIM for $269 with two mags and a holster.

Roll your eyes all you want. Its still only $370 for what is essentially a $600 gun.

I picked one up a year ago for $295 locally. It came with one spare mag, a leather magazine pouch, and a duty holster. Was that a better deal than the current offer? Hell Yes. Is the current offer a bad deal? Hell no.

Thanks.

Speculating on what may be the next P6 in the surplus world might be fun as a shooter, but probably not successful as a part for the retirement portfolio.

$270 with both mags & holster & $250 with only one mag IIRC.

The P6 will be catching the CPO's if the sellers keep working the market and shouting Obama, Obama.

Hopefully the P6 prices will tank soon around 350-400, we can hope...

 

[IndyGunworks]

those P6's used to be the best find on the market... they typically were in really good condition.

Wow, my brother bought one for $270 last year... I only paid $500 for my CPO 226.

I miss the days of "cheap" guns.
