Not at all. He never said new....so I'm assuming used. I only paid $400 for my Shield 2.0 .45....but I'm not familiar with .45 M&Ps. Checked gunbroker but no sales in the 2 pages listed. It seems on the high side of close to fair...and of course there's no FFL, shipping or tax here in WA state (total of that comes to $100).
