Best Deal in a New .40 S&W

I was going to suggest Gen3 Glock 22 police trade-in but that is pretty good.

Gen3 Glock 22 with 2 mags for $269 - https://www.kingsfirearmsonline.com...two-15rd-magazines-police-trade-in-item-tspw2

Gen4 Glock 22 with 2 mags/night sights for $289 + free shipping - https://peakfirearms.com/police-trade-in/glock-22-gen-4-police-trade-in.html

And speaking of deal, add a 40-9 conversion barrel from BCA for $42.99 shipped and you got a 9mm range blaster for cheaper practice - https://www.bearcreekarsenal.com/bc...-9mm-conversion-barrel-stainless-steel-finish

Aimsurplus has trade-in G22 Gen 4 for $300 and some other .40 S&Ws.

Apologizing to the OP... the police turn-in 40's are very cheap right now. My Glock 22, Sig P229, Beretta 96, and Beretta PX4 were all about $300 OTD or less.

I owned one of the SD40VE's. They are typically under $300 NiB. The trigger on mine was stiffer than I prefer, but it was completely reliable.

Does RIA still make 1911's in 40 caliber? I paid around $350 for mine and really like it.

"a New G22-4 with Night Sights for $369 99 seems like a pretty good deal."

Agreed. It seems like a good time for pistol shopping, lots of good deals out there.

Holiday sale at LGS 40SDVE $200 nib, that was better than what I paid 6 or 7 years ago and it still shoots good

I personally carry glock. But u know the deals there it seems. All the trade ins ive bought have been in great shape after cleaning.

A couple more options...

Cdnn has CPO 229s or 226 for 440

I bought a cpo 320 with siglites for 300 on gunbroker and still see them

S&W M&P Shield .40s are about $300 and that would be a new gun with a great S&W warranty. The M&P line is very well proved.

Yes, I can get used G22 Police Trade-ins for $279 but a New G22-4 with Night Sights for $369 99 seems like a pretty good deal.

Most police trade in with night sights are faded and no longer glowing, I'd rather pay some more and have new sights.

Yep the new G-22 4th Generation sounds like a great deal.

Not new but CDNN had a lot of Sig CPO's in .40. Both the P-series pistols & the P-320 variants.

4 of the last 5 I've bought had what had to have been new night sights on them. I'd guess that the departments changed them pretty often. The other one was a usp from 1994 which I'd bet had the original sights. They were gone but the gun was 98 percent at least and I'm not sure it had left the box.

I picked up this M&P 2.0 40 for $299. It's accurate, reliable and handles the recoil well.

I see lots of sig factory returns for cheap on cdnn in .40 and .357sig. even german framed ones.....worth a look.

Sadly there are never any local deals in my neck of the woods

Stop it, remember, .40S&W is DEAD. Don't you believe the Internet commandos? Everyone here needs to send me their .40S&W guns and ammo. I will ensure proper disposal.

Same here. If they had that where I lived I would be all over it. I could likely find something online similar but not locally where I can just walk in and leave with it. I also wouldn't be surprised if deals like that start showing up everywhere. The downward pressure on quality firearms prices, especially new polymer pistols , used 40 S&W metal service pistols and AR-15's is so intense I don't think I have ever seen anything like this in 25 years of firearms ownership.

Comically, I can walk in Smokey mountain guns and ammo or buds (which are 2 minutes apart) and look at these deals in 1.75 hours drive time. Or be in cabelas or bass pro in 1.5 hrs drive (10 minutes apart but in 2 different states) sadly they are in TN and VA so I cant buy a handgun from them (but I can buy a long gun), being from NC even though it's an Nics check and supposed to be federal. So I have to order them online......from TN (kings) or Indiana (recoilgunworks) (or wherever cdnn is) crazy laws I think. It would be nice to hand pick but I've yet to feel like I got a gun not exactly as described.
Then I ship them to the highest local place and drive by 4 or 5 cheaper ones (30 dollars transfer) just because i like them. Lol

The Gen4 G22 I bought used from recoilgunworks cost less than $300, looked 99% new, and had good, working Glock night sights. Been loving shooting it...

How about one of those 4006TSW ‘s that the CHP is transitioning away from?

I bought a glock 22 gen 4 trade in like new with 3 mags. for $309. & a Sig 226 night sights and one piece grip for $279 with 3 mags. No brainer.

226 is one of my favorite guns. All the 22x series actually but what do you think of the e2 grip. And have you used the regular grip a lot? I bought one the other day as well....I hate it. Im going to go to the standard grip like all my other sigs have. I like the texture but I hate the size and shape. Only one person that's tried it preferred it. And she is 5 foot 1 with short fingers.

The E2 grip fits my hand better than the standard. I have medium hands. I gave the Sig to my son as I never could get past the d/a to s/a thing. I shoot my glocks much better.
