I bought a used Buck Mark Standard yesterday and I'm wondering if I paid too much. I didn't have much chance to check it out because I was away from my computer and it was getting late. I didn't want to go back after the pistol. I knew I wanted one because my wife really enjoyed shooting the one I had borrowed last summer. She got to where she could shoot it pretty well too which is great considering he lack of experience with handguns. I bought the Browning as much to get her into shooting as anything else. But I like plinking with one too.
I paid $300 for this one. I go a 30 day return period so I guess if I paid some crazy amount I could take it back but I don't think that's the case. It's "very" unlikely I would take it back for price and it seems to function just fine. I just wondered what they were running in other areas. It has some minor scratched in the bluing here and there but no rust or anything and it shoots like a dream, like all Buck Marks I've shot. Here's a photo I took quick. I didn't spend any time cleaning it up well or anything else. It's just to give people an idea exactly what I bought (the new models can be confusing but his isn't one of them anyway - it's from 2009 which is about the time they switched to the new frame designs. I believe it's a Standard although many Standards are slab sided and this one isn't. It has a 5.5" barrel.
