If the seller wants a price for a used handgun close ($100) to what a NIB out the door tax inclued price. Why buy used? I don't know how warranties work for handguns. Do they transfer to a new buyer? I would hate to buy a LNIB handgun for close to what a NIB handgun cost, have a problem & find out the warranties void because I'm not the original owner. I checked my area found only 1 NIB handgun for out the door tax included $747.86. Thats only $87.86 more than $660. I could put that $87.86 toward xtra mags, night sights, & leather. That $87.86 would be better spent on peace of mind buing NIB knowing the warrranty is in full force.
