Price Check, Sig P228

[zogorion]

Just wondering if $400 OTD is a good price for a used P228 at a pawn shop. The guy is gonna throw in 1 factory 10rd mag, and 1 factory 13rd hi-cap. The gun has the SigLite night-sights, and they still appear to have some juice left in them. As for the condition of the gun...there appears to be no holster wear, so it doesn't seem like it's been carried much. However, it does seem like it's had plenty of rounds fired through it. It's got the classic Sig Smiley on the top of the barrel, but the gun is really clean inside and out. There is a very slight wiggle between the slide and the frame, i think this is normal, but i'm really not sure. The trigger feels only slightly less crisp than a brand new P229 that i tried out the other day. I think this is a pretty good deal, I was just wondering if you guys had any input for me. Thanks In Advance

That sounds like an excellent deal. Pick up some Mec-Gar 15-round flush-fit "LEO" mags from Cope's for $20 while you're at it.

They make 15-rounders too, sweet! Thanks.

I couldn't resist, I bought it!

Well guys, I picked up the pistol on my lunch break! They guy also threw in a set of Hogue grips for me. I ran home and installed them quick and the gun feel so awesome in my hand, I can't wait to make it to the range this weekend. I'll post some pics of the new toy when I get home this afternoon.
