Hi all,
About a year ago I came across a guy selling a pair of Tariq pistols, and managed to pick them up for about C$450 for the both. One of them is a regular looking Tariq, good shape and with the Tariq grips, the other is more or less straight out of the box, but is parkerized and has what look like homemade rosewood grips, and has arabic writing on both sides of the slide, rather than the "MADE IN IRAQ" stamp.
I originally expected them to be worth about as much as a Helwan pistol, maybe a little more as they are very solid guns, but I recently started looking into it, and they seem to be going for pretty insanely high prices. Does anyone know what the usual going price is/whether I got the deal of a lifetime here?
Edit: It should be noted I'm from Canada, and as far as I know, there's no reason we're not allowed to have/buy/sell Iraqi firearms here.
