Default My Mod. 915 came in today. It exceeded my expectations!

Hey guys,

The 915 arrived today.

The only blemish is the rear sight, where it appears someone tried to remove it with pliers

After I won the auction I went over the pics again, noticed the sight and contacted the seller.

The sight damage is not as bad as I originally thought it was. But then again, I did blowup the pics of the sight to somewhere around the size of the Texas.

Anyway, I called the seller and he agreed to ship the pistol free and to forgive the 3% credit card fee since the sight damage was not mentioned in the description.

Grand total? $305.

I would have happily paid more for this pistol. There were a mere five bids. Everyone was trying to steal it, I guess. But I ended up the lucky thief.

The box is original and labeled to the pistol. It came with all the paperwork and one OEM mag and one no-name mag. But I had a spare OEM Mag for it.

It came to me clean as a whistle. I field stripped it and it is pristine inside and out. Bore is perfect and the rifling looks great.

I'm extremely happy today. I think you would be too.

Here are some pics. Enjoy.

Thanks Barrie. I've been waiting to find a 915 in this kind of condition for a long time.

I had another 915 that I just, and I mean today, sold. A friend of mine always liked it and when I called him today, he snapped it up.

The one I sold him was in VG - VG+ condition and I charged him "break even" money, $305, just what I payed for the new one.

I could have gotten more money from him or elsewhere, but what the heck. I got a good deal so I gave him one too.

For that price and in that condition I challenge you to find a better handgun from any maker, in any caliber, for defense. Perfect!
