Sandard USP 40
Its a standard model, but I can't get a picture of it. Catching this guy when hes not feeling too drained or just at home. He frequents Jack Smiths gun shop here in Des Moines. It's been a place I have avoided for the fact that the owner is plain rude and especially gets down on the younger buyers. I am 32, but am frequently told I look no older than 24. I got chewed out for being too young for a ccw, and I showed nothing but respect and maturity.
In an ironic note, I found a barely used, and I mean imperceptably worn, fresh in the shelf HK USP 40 for sale at Scheels for $599. If I felt a need for another full sized polymer 40 cal, I would have bought it.

If he does less volume, and especially if he slacks on payment, his cost will be higher.
I'm not saying you're wrong, and I am out of my lane a little here, as I have no idea how this works, but I've always heard that you have to sell a certain quota to get lower pricing from the companies, which is why high volume sellers like Bud's usually have lower prices. If there's any truth to that, then your LGS guy may be telling you the truth. Then again, maybe not. Who knows.

One of the local pawn shops here has the .45 highpoint pistols at 350 bucks...that is absurd they have lousy customer service and little to zero gun knowledge....4 stores down there is a smaller gun shop that bases his prices off of buds gun shop and he will talk to you all day about guns....
