I'll bet you would be hard, hard pressed to buy one in such good condition with box, for $800, if you could ever find one! It's already been shot, and I think you could shoot several hundred rounds through it without it showing a bit. Properly taken care of much more, unless holstered. If you just take it to the range in a case and care for it after shooting, about the only thing that will show is the turn ring. I doubt that it would be worth any less in 10 years if it is shot. I bought a K49xxx about 7 or 8 years ago for the princely sum of $300. It is almost as nice as yours without the box. I have sent about 1000 rounds down it without any further indications of shooting than when I got it. It's your gun and you have to follow how you feel about it.
