    Default What would you pay for a...?

    My friend is selling a Springfield Armory 1911 Mil-Spec Stainless finish. less than 500 rounds through it and cleaned after every trip to the range. He is throwing in about 400 rounds of ammo (55 rounds of good defense ammo).


    Thanks!!!

    Check the auction sites to get an idea. It looks like maybe $550-$650ish.

    I'd give $500 for the gun. But 400rds of 45ACP is really hard to come by.

    So I'd do $600~$650 for all.


    Just remenber, however, not one person will ever tell prospective gun buyer a true round count.

    Seems like noone selling guns ever shot their weapon more than 500rds

    I agree. If you can get it within that range, I'd say it's a pretty solid deal.

    Also agree on this. I wouldn't put too much weight in the amount of rounds "put through" it, as the number is less than 500, 95% of the time. But regardless, if it's in great shape (make sure you give it a thorough check before) $6-650 would be pretty solid.

    You really need the model number as they vary greatly and some are harder to get then others.
