i recently paid $380.00 shipped for a 4043 with box, manual & 3 mags.

the 4013s are probably worth a little more...good luck with it.

any idea what gun the previous owner traded for?

No, I never thought to ask. But should have.

I've never actually heard of any decocker malfunction, but any mechanical device can fail. If you don't trust it, it can't fail you catastrophically.
Ive been waiting to get to the range to use it. I may have to keep a bucket -O- sand by the garage door....

What decocking lever horror stories have you heard??
Thanks for the link. I remember reading it.... how much plasma did ya donate?? LOL

I personally havent heard of any horror stories. The guy just said they dont always work and that when they fail, they discharge the chambered round. I did ask the guy at the gun shop about it. He has never heard anything. and said that IF they did fail, it would be a total recall of the guns... as this would be a major design flaw.
