    I don't think I am asking for way too over priced for a gun, barely used, for $700, when msrp is 750. even with a $120 scope to add to it 800 total.
    If the gun is $750 MSRP and you paid more than $675 or $700 you paid too much.
    Would you buy a used car at or near MSRP?
    You're talking about selling a used gun for the same price that one could get it for new, that definitely won't work here and probably not at a gun show.
    If you priced it for $675 with the scope you might have better luck. JMHO

    In late 2022, we (Masada Tactical in Pikesville) were selling them new for $699. That was a local gun shop with no shipping and no transfer fee.
    You're the seller, so you set the price. That being said, I think it would move for $550-$600 w/o the optic.

    So far, apparently, the market seems to think you are, or it would have sold by now. If that is the price you really really want to get for it, have patience. I'm sure either inflation or another politically inspired buying frenzy will make that a good price eventually.

    The operative word here.

    It’s just wafer thin…
