Default S&W Model 915? Good price?

Saw an ad for a S&W Model 915. Looks to be in very good shape. Asking $350. Good price? Great price? Meh?

Depending on accessories, OK price for a very underrated pistol. 300-325 would be more in line in my area.

I have one (it is my car gun) and like it a lot. Good luck with your choice.

I'm a genuine fan of the 915 but I'm a bigger fan of the 5906. For a few dollars more, I think the 5906 is simply a better handgun.

At like $275 maybe I look harder at the 915. $350 for a 915 better be showing me new/mint and with original box and such.

I bought a 910 last weekend for $275. It came with box, 2 10rd and 1 15rd mag and a belt holster. I'd say 3.75 out of 5 condition, holster wear but the internals and barrel are in very good shape. My best guess is it was an armed security guard weapon. Unless that 915 is in 5 star condition, offer $275-300. A quick glance at GB shows 225-325.

All depends on condition. Could be high... could even be low. I paid significantly more than that for mine but I wanted absolute top condition in original factory box with original (pre-ban hi-cap) magazines. No regrets.

I had a 915 and parted with it for $300. In its place I bought a 5904 for $325. I think I got more than $25 in value in the replacement.
For $350, I would pass on a 915. Great pistol, but can be had for a better price.

I agree the 5906 is better made, but if I'm carrying it, I'll take the 915. Noticeably lighter.

OK price if it's in really good condition ...that said...... I'd offer $300 if he counters at $325 ....... I wouldn't lose it for $25.

I own 3.................all bought used (2 are like new) for between $275 and $325 ( 3 magazines)

I don't see as many as a couple of years ago. I would buy at that price.
