"For that same money, on the same page, the trade in S&W 5906's are a much better deal, for a much better gun, used and all." I have a cop trade-in 5903 in very good condition, (shot little, carried alot), the 5906's alloy brother, and i like it alot and highly recommend it, as well as all S&W 3rd gens. all very good pistols, thats one reason why i like the Beretta and why i would like to have a ATI 92C, because of the the ambi. slide mounted de-cockers, and alloy frame, just my thing i gess. The fact that this is NIB for $300 also helps, and the fact that it is made to NATO spec. It is also used by the Turkish armed forces, and the fact that it is also tested very thoroughly. Make this pistol at least IMHO a very good buy.
