3rd Gen addiction strikes yet again...
Stumbled upon an amazing deal this time. But, I did have to make about a 2 hour drive to get it. Totally worth it!
It is a model 4003. BRAND NEW in the original box with both magazines, cleaning rod, etc. Bought it from a guy I met through a local forum in Louisiana. He had the original receipt from when he purchased it new in 1994 and he even threw in the 500 round case of ammo he bought along with it in '94. I often score great 2nd and 3rd Gen deals down in south Louisiana, but this is probably my best score yet. Paid $300 for everything. What do y'all think?

Great score! You should feel lucky that I didn't have a chance at buying it before you heard about this super deal. Enjoy!!!

$300 including $100 worth of ammo? That's crazy good!

Wow. The ammo's gotta be worth $150. I think you stole it.

What a score, congrats. A brand new quality pistol with over $100 of ammo for less than the cost of a new polymer one.

Dear God!!! That's absolutely amazing!
You stole that magnificent gun and you stole the ammo too. Shame on you!
And as I've asked so many times before... why don't deals like that ever happen to poor old moi?

You did good . Any better and he would have paid you to take it . The addiction hits some of us pretty hard . Sevens introduced me to this world , I was a dyed in the wool S&W revolver guy . There's just something about these autos that gets in your blood .

You ain’t kidding. First thing I do now at a gun store is scout the used cases for 2nd & 3rd gens.

Really, you should ask for your money's return.
(I said nothing about the gun's return to seller. I just figure this seller is such a nice person he may well just do it. Know what I mean? Furthermore, one can understand the addiction when deals like this are at hand. This member full well understands your plight; been there and done it way too many times!)
Later.
