    Howdy all. I guess I could check GunBroker etc but, well, I find inquiring here much more pleasant.

    What’s a good price between friends for a excellent condition (fired very little) Beretta 92FS ?

    I have a good (good) buddy who wants to sell his Excellent Condition Beretta 92FS cuz he needs the money to buy himself a 20ga o/u

    I need another 92FS like I need another hole in my head but, he is retired USN JAG and even though NC a law allows for ftf between CHP holders he is all antsy pantsy about selling the gun “to a stranger” (I know,I know, y’all will be preaching to choir, with me). How slow he is moving on unloading his Beretta is finally getting to ME!

    Anyway, I just ordered 10 Beretta 30-rd mags for the wife’s 92G and my 92FS from GZD.com ($28@!) and I remembered my buddy is STILLLLL draggung his feet about selling his.

    If I buy that d*mn thing I won’t be able to live w myself but, I’m curious and gotta ask anyway :innocent0

    Thanks (didn’t occur to me to check Buds)!

    Oh if only it was a CZ 75 or something I need!

    And, it occurred to me, a polite thing do would be to include a link to hat deal I mentioned (in case anyone has relatives living outside the MD Socialist Republik, (ahem!) so, here it is: https://gunzonedeals.com/product/beretta-c89282-92fscx4-9mm-30rd-blued-carbon-steel

    (I just paid $35 and up for these same mags from other vendors, back in March :-/

    I bought one lightly used maybe 18 months ago, maybe a little more. As I recall it was around $325 (maybe $350?) and was a security company trade in. The price struck me as very good and I considered getting two, but couldn't find any way to really justify it.

    Of course, that was then, this is now. I'm guessing those kinds of deals aren't going to pop up too often now-a-days.

    Maybe in a year or two. Just depends on how everything shakes out. If things calm down we’ll see those days again. If there is a big economic downturn, but things stay calm, you might really see it as guys try to liquidate stuff to stay afloat. And/or just more guys out of the market because they don’t have the pocket money.

    Part of why the run on ammo and guns has been so bad is because of all the stimulus money. Not just because of several million new gun owners. You had a ton of guys with a few thousand extra tossed at them with serious need, so they went and stimulated the (gun) economy.

    I know I decided to buy another suppressor in part because of getting stimulus money. Though I’ve otherwise stayed out of buying ammo and mostly not buying guns (did buy a Howa 1500 at a nice price last year).

    I should have bought five from Lou when he had that lot all those years ago...I think they were $285 or so and were basically new. Still kicking myself over that :sad20:

    I picked up one from Scott's in the late summer 2020. $400 was the cash price. These were security company trade-ins. Very, very good condition except for the holster wear. This was the original thread from 2019, mine has the same level of holster wear as the one in the photos:

    Seems like this was a fair price back then. They took a year to sell all of them.

    No idea what these guns would have fetched in the height of the shortage or what they might sell for now. Crazy times.
