Due to lack of funds I am unable to buy a new firearm anytime in the foreseable future. So I started to think that maybe I'll do a trade with something I don't use all that often to see what I can get in return. For those of you that do not live in MA or are not aware of our gun laws, the trade fodder I decided upon is semi hard to get and you pay a premium for it.
I decided to trade my IMI Desert Eagle Mark I in 357 Mag that has been sitting around my safe not doing a whole lot. In MA these will go for around $1200. I put it up on a local forum for trade and got some interesting responses.
One guy offered a trade with the following items:
1. Colt 1991a1 with Original Mat Black Finish, Over-sized magazine well, Match trigger full length guide rod, Skeletons hammer, over-sized grip safety, over-sized beaver tail (because frame need to be cut out for the beavertail it is the only thing that can not be reversed) Rubber full fingered grip Houge, Rubber factory grips and Milit Adjustable rear sight.
2. Browning Buckmark Pro-Target with box and two mags
3. Saiga semi auto rifle in 308 w/ russian 4x32 scope (Scope will fit my SAR-1 as well)
4. S&W 4516-2 w/ 5 mags
Another guy is offering a S&W 1911 DK w/ 4 mags and ammo.
There are other, but these two offers are the only ones I'm considering at this point. To me they both seem like a good deal, but the 4 guns for one offer seem like a good for me. Don't know a lot about the 1991 though. I'm reading mixed reviews. Either people love them or hate them. No middle ground. Same can be said for the 4615-2
What do you think? Trade for one of these options or keep looking?
