Going price for a VG/Ex 4516-1?
I have one that I am thinking of parting with and you don't see many for sale so judging price isn't as easy as more common guns.
Has 6 mags, Alessi IWB leather holster and desantis dual mag pouch, hogue rubber grip and S&W enlarged/extended mag release button. Pictures below for a more accurate assessment.

Pictures of the other side, would help. Also it looks like somebody machine down the original Ambi safety decocker lever. That may or may not detract from the price.

There is a 4516-1 with a current bid of $432.07 at auction ending 4/14 on the big online auction site which should give you an idea of a value price. The seller rates it VG with 3 mags.

Will keep an eye on it, didn't see one a couple days ago when I checked.

Added a pic. The right side lever was like that when I got it about 10 years ago. If it's not factory, it was very well done.

I would place a value between $450-$550 maybe more with all those mags. My guesstimate.

God, I would hope so, the mags are pricey, plus the other stuff... 3rd gens are going up...
Of course 98% of perspective buyers have fillet mignon taste and hotdog money and/or want everything for .50/$1.00....

Don’t get me wrong, you have a phenomenal pistol but in my experience the extra mags never bring what they are worth. They will help close the deal real fast. To get top dollar requires original box, grips and paperwork. Sub compacts aren’t range guns and usually 2 mags will suffice. And yes those mags are worth $50 a pop separately.

That is well done. The only tip off was the hole in the safety/decocker body. That's where the spring and plunger go for the right side lever.
18DAI would be my go to guy for 4516 pricing. My guess is $550-600 because of the condition and # of magazines.

I always figure magazines in when buying or selling. If i'm buying and have sufficient njmbers of magazines for the type, I plan to sell some to help defray the cost.

I figured the mag value at $30 a pop but I guess I was a bit low. I figured the holster and mag pouch are worth $60 easy, and then the small extras of the grip and mag release...Makes the pistol about $400, which I think is a really good price... Sounds reasonable right?

Its why Im into revolvers a lot too...A pistol without mags is just a fancy, complicated single shot so I stock up on mags big time...

If that were my pistol as nice as it appears would have tag of $550 min. with only 3 mags. The mag pouch has value but I think holsters have zip value since they are such a personal choice..Your other 3 mags I think you could at least get $100--$120 as scarce as they seem to have become. A factory delrin grip is going to make it more appealing to more potential buyers even if it's a used grip.
