Good price on a lightly used gp100?

[XD45Sooner]

I have the opportunity to buy a lightly used, stainless 4" barrel ruger gp 100 for $360 bucks? Is that a good price? New they are $500 plus around here.

That's pretty close to what I paid for my used stainless 6" a few months ago.

I just paid $380 under similar.

Bud's has the for $350.00 90% condition.

I paid that 2 years ago for one. Good deal and price. Also depends where you live as far as prices go.

 

[2rugers]

Yeah, thats about square.

 

[XD45Sooner]

I think I will go ahead and get it. It is in about 95% condition. Its not a steal but its a good deal on a revolver I have had my eyes on for years.

Thanks.

Did you have it refinished don?

Did you have it refinished don?

No I did it myself. I filed both sides of the barrel to get rid of all the writing, the sanded a bit, then bead blasted the frame. I polished the cylinder, hammer, trigger, and cylinder release. The grip inserts are from a member over on the Ruger forum. Heres the link to the forum, www.rugerforum.com

Melissa5, I like that Security Six. Real sweet looking

 

[Melissa5]

Thanks, Don. I was about to compliment you on those grip inserts. What kind of wood is that?

xd45sooner, I don't think you'll regret getting a GP100. It's the first gun I bought and still my favorite one to shoot.

 

[Kreyzhorse]

Jump on it. I think it's a fair price.

That's a fair price for one. I paid $300 for my dad's 3" blued one back in July and felt that I got a pretty good deal (and Dad had a very happy birthday).

 

[XD45Sooner]

I bought it, its a really cool gun. I havent shot it yet but I have already fallen in love with it. I as proud to show it off as I am my coveted Smith 1911 Thanks for all of the help!

The inserts are Birdseye Maple.
