Check GB...it has served me well over the last couple of years.
Yes you are right. I purchased a M17 no safety for $579 and a Kimber KHX ultra for $780, both brand new on gunbroker last night. The Kimber retails for $1250 but you can get them for just over $1000, so great buy there, the M17 not so much because I wanted the no safety otherwise Tanners has them for $519 with the safety. Between Gunbroker, Tanner and a couple other locals renders the show useless, unless you are looking for chinese junk or some of those great smoked meats.
Next month will be the H&K month.

Next was an M17 and they went from $649 to an astonishing $750. Finally I was looking for a Sig P229 Legion but there were none. I saw others that prices were way overpriced. I also notice the they are now using Spikes lowers but the using cheap parts to finish the gun. I guess they think that using Spikes makes the rest of the gun a better seller. I think this was the worst show I ever been at. I don’t think I will go to another one anytime soon. Much better with local shops.
I've done well on HKPro for H&K and if I was looking for Sigs I'd haunt SIGtalk.

Yes both good sites but hard to find the guns I want. As soon as they go up in the classified they are sold. I have been keeping an eye out for both.

Yep, you need to check frequently and be quick.

I got a VP9 V1 for $475 shipped to my FFL and a Mark 23 for $1840 shipped off of HKPro but I had to watch and move fast.

I wasn't really looking for it, I was just perusing like I do and when it came up I checked its sales record on GB. After that I couldn't resist and I'm not usually a impulse buyer.

Tanners Gun Shop had VP9SKs in OD green with the Crimson Trace laser for about 500 bucks..... Very good deal
The laser alone is 200 bucks....
