Default Price check: NAA Guardian .380

What is the going price on a used NAA Guardian .380? Fired very little. Comes with zippered pouch and two mags. The pouch is offered on NAA's web site and has the belt clip.

Thanks,

There is one like that for sale here in the $300 range.
My Blue book, a few editions old. Lists 98% at $300.

They are great guns (I have one) but are a lot heavier than the newer Rugers, KT etc. But it is solid Stainless.

I was gonna trade mine, but for what I'd get, I'll just keep it as it is totally reliable and true double action.

Great guns, solid and quality, but "heavy and bulky". $300 seems to be the going price for a exc. cond. one. I replaced mine with a Ruger LCP.

I highly recommend the NAA .380. The only problem I ever had with mine was with Blazer ammo. They must have really hard primers, and wouldn't always pop on the first strike. But, since the NAA is a "true" double action, another pull on the trigger always did the trick! (Never happened with 'carry' ammo, just Blazers.)

The carry case is nice, but a VERY tight fit, especially if you have a magazine with the finger rest seated in the gun. Never found mine very useful; an extra 1/4 - 1/2 inch all the way around would have been welcomed.
