Default 617-6

I have the opportunity to buy a LNIB 617-6 w/6 in. tube for 450 bucks. Is this a good price on the gun or no.

Yes. They usually average between $600-700 but can go for more sometimes. If I seen any 617 for $450, I'm grabbing it.

It better have the factory test-fired shell with it too, or I'd walk away.

Wow that is a great price. I'm sure you will love it and if you don't you can sell it.

Gonna take this thing out today and run a few through it . VZ makes a set of grips that I think would look great on this thing. I have a few sets of their grips on my 1911's and love them. The condom grips don't the gun justice.

If you don't like it, let me know. I'll take it off your hands and even let you make some $$$. It's the least I can do for a fellow Georgia resident.

Went up into the mountains and ran about 100 rds. through it. Boringly accurate and didn't miss a beat. I should have bought one of these a long time ago. Awesome gun.
