The lifetime warranty including free shipping it worth buying new.

I am not suggesting you will need the warranty but one ship back of a firearm would negate any savings buying used.

When I owned a Kahr and Beretta Nano collectively I shipped them back 4 times in less than one year.

UPS quoted me $70 to ship a handgun.

I realize the gun manufacturers don't pay $70 to ship but the average joe paying is going to take a hit in the pocket book if they need to cover shipping a handgun.

I would never buy a used gun if a manufacturer is willing to pick up the cost to ship and repairs especially for life in S&W case.
