Beretta model 89

Has anyone had any experience with a Beretta model 89 target - 22 cal. and have an idea what one LNIB would be worth. A local gun shop just got one in on consignment. Thanks for any information.

$700 to $850 range.

Thanks for the reply. Does anyone know anything about the gun itself - the quality, issues, ect. Thanks.

The Beretta 89 is a fabulous target .22 pistol. Mine is accurate, just a joy to shoot.
It competes on a level playing field with my S&W 41. Can't speak to it's ammo pickyness, mine gets only CCI Standard Velocity.
Feels really good in the hand, balances well, good sights, excellent trigger.
Downsides?
Magazines are hard to find and kind of expensive.
Not a common pistol at all, but a really nice pistol.

Look here for Beretta mags. I found mags for my 70s here.
