Hey everyone, how are you guys doing? I have been doing some more handgun shopping lately and have come across a few interesting prospects. I was wondering if any of oyu guys could tell me which were good deals and good guns, and which were bad deals and/or bad guns? All guns are used but in in near new condition.
#1. Taurus PT 58 in .380 ACP Price: $325
#2. S&W 9mm TZK 3976 Mod3913. This gun looks like aw Chief Special. Has expired Trintium night sights and two mags(were put in in 93) Price is $395.
#3. Glock 21. Price $750
#4. Black P99 with two mags, near mint condition. Price $400.
#5. S&W .40 with the glock style trigger.safety (foret exact model name/number). Looks similar to a P99 or a sig. All black Price $400.

Your list gave me a case of sticker shock! I wouldn't pay those prices for any of it. However I's say #4, the P99 is the best buy. The real question is though, "which of the guns do you like best?" In the long run it's best to buy what you like, and in time even the "too-high" prices will become more then reasonable. Quality guns from popular manufacturers almost always go up.

That P99 is probably the best deal there. It seems that is the only one on that list approaching a fair deal. Can that Smith you list as #5 be the SW99? If so, its a sister to the Walther, but I believe the P99 to be better than the SW99. Could also be a Sigma. Ugh...get the P99.

I'd take a BERSA 380 over the Taurus PT 58 any day. A NEW BERSA will run you around $190 to $250 depending on which communist state you live in.....you know....if you really wanted a .380 that is....
The P99 would be sweet.

The P99 is the best deal on that list. That Glock 21 is way overpriced.

I concur, the P99 is the best deal. The Glock is extremely overpriced at $750.
