A fellow on our local forum offered one for sale recently for $450.00. In box with paperwork. A 2002 model. A couple of light handling marks but otherwise LNIB with all paperwork. Locks up tight as a bank vault.
In lieu of cash, I offered in trade a case of XM193 ammo I had in the closet. We did an even swap. I paid a bit less for the ammo than his asking price, but given current circumstances I felt like it was a fair deal on both sides.
I've seen these .22LR models for sale for upwards of 600.00 so overall I think I did pretty good.
I wanted the .22LR because:
1) I'm a Ruger nut.
2) Cheap practice with a .22LR version of a gun I regularly carry.
3) I was absent a .22LR handgun at the moment and this filled that void.
4) Did I mention I'm a Ruger nut?
Opinions of these .22LR models? I hope to get to shoot it this weekend or next.
